5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
He needs to improve upon his last few showings and was held in fifth over C&D most recently; however, this two-time course winner is 6lb lower than when second at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) in March and is not written off. |

5th 7 (5) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
4lb lower than for his win at Newcastle (7f) last September; up and down in 2026 and others bring stronger claims. |
12/1 |

8th 4 (6) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
More productive on AW (5-17) than on turf (2-28) and was only run out of it inside the final furlong at Newcastle (7f Class 5; 9-1) in March; less effective since (0-2) but is slowly easing in the weights, and is perhaps best suited by 6f. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 1m selling handicap (good to firm) at Thirsk when with George Boughey; has gone close a couple of times for this yard, including here (1m, good) 12 months ago when 3lb higher; below par in both starts this season but not written off. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Went close off this mark over C&D last backend and a good test over this trip is fine; quiet on his turf comeback and only has a selling handicap win to his name but he's quite capable. |
16/1 |

8th 10 (8) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained sole win in July 2024 on final start for previous yard; record of 0-9 for current stable doesn't tell the whole story as he's posted a few second-place finishes that represent peak form; capable of going well. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Had dropped to his last winning mark when third of seven at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last time, but he is now 0-14 on turf; another placing may be his best hope. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
0-13 on turf, but has won three races on the AW, the latest at Newcastle in January (1m); not been at his best recently. |

4th 2 (3) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Best RPRs over shorter (6f) but did make all in a slowly run C&D Class 4 in January (4-1); failed to get majorly competitive - often slowly away - in his last three starts; return to AW might assist, along with Ethan Tindall's 5lb claim. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Now 11lb lower than when successful for David O'Meara last autumn but has lost his way; it's a long time since he won on turf and even longer since he ran in a sprint, so he is hard to fancy back from a break. |
33/1 |

8th 2 (4) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
8lb lower than when successful for David O'Meara over C&D in October, but has lost his way including in five starts for this yard; drops into a Class 6 for the first time in his career, but has plenty to prove; cheekpieces return. |
25/1 |

7th 10 (7) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Yet to offer much in four runs for his current yard, just eighth of 11 in 7f Kempton handicap 24 days ago; significantly more is required from this three-time C&D winner. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Last win came at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) in May 2025; has slipped to a dangerous mark and any market support should be noted. |
9/2 |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Three wins in the first half of 2025 and latest was off 1lb higher over C&D; returned after wind surgery with a promising effort in a Class 4 here (7f, good to firm) last month and he looks interesting on this drop back in grade. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
11yo who made virtually all to win at Southwell (7f, AW) in April; unplaced on both starts since but he failed to settle and was denied a clear run here on the first occasion; has won here three times; not ruled out. |
7/1 |

7th 4 (1) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Veteran who gamely made all at Southwell (7f, AW) in April, his 12th win; only 1lb higher here and did pretty well to finish fifth at Catterick (7f, good) last month, given he pulled hard in the early stages (not a regular trait) and was denied a clear run; considered. |
9/2 |
|
5th 2 (4) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran; game AW winner at Southwell (7f; 6-1) recently; 1lb rise looks fair and he's still 5lb lower than when successful over C&D (good to firm) last August; no reason why he shouldn't be thereabouts. |

All three wins came over 6f on Polytrack last year, but showed he could handle Tapeta when beaten a neck on stable debut over C&D in August; three poor runs since and hard to recommend. |
