5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won a Newbury novice (7f, good to soft) for Richard Hannon last September but that was a shock at 125-1 and he's not gone on from that in two handicaps since; still lightly raced but he was out the back on recent stable debut at Beverley (first run since gelded) and others are preferred. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (2) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
125-1-winner of 7f Newbury novice but he backed it up with a solid third of five in 1m York handicap later in the autumn on his final run for Richard Hannon; gelded/changed hands for 48,000gns since and needs considering for his new yard. |
14/1 |
|
4 (3) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Left his first two runs (1m, good/heavy) miles behind to win at 125-1 at Newbury (7f, good to soft) three weeks ago; has an attractive pedigree, so that latest performance is unlikely to be a one-off, and he has the potential to be better than this opening mark. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Came from off the pace to make a winning debut over C&D on soft last August before going down narrowly under a penalty at Newbury (good to soft); the winner of that race was 125-1 and has become disappointing, but this colt retains potential. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Without Parole colt who came from off the pace to make a winning debut in Sandown maiden (7f, soft); the clear pick of the runners with experience and sets a fairly useful standard. |
9/4 |

1st 11 (5) |

21,000gns foal, 80,000gns yearling; Without Parole half-brother to an Italian 6f winner, out of maiden (RPR 66) half-sister to 6f 2yo scorer Elronaq; stable 3-22 with 2yos this year. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Promise when placed in both starts last year (good to soft and soft) but it was much his best effort when cheekpieces and/or AW sparked a win in Kempton novice (7f) 17 days ago; handicapper didn't miss that but still warrants plenty of respect on his debut in this sphere. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two promising runs as a juvenile, at 7f and about 1m, but they were on good to soft and soft ground and he may have been feeling the good to firm surface when hanging under pressure on his Leicester return; should be capable of much better; cheekpieces fitted. |
9/2 |
|
5th 5 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Displayed plenty of promise when placed in 7f Newbury novice and 1m Nottingham maiden last autumn, travelling strongly long way when runner-up on latter occasion; gelded since; holds leading claims with better to come. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
650,000gns breeze-up purchase; fourth at Newbury (7f, good to soft) last month and he built on that when justifying 4-9 favouritism in a five-runner maiden here (7f, good) four weeks ago, making virtually all to score by a neck; has 7lb penalty and 7lb claimer is enlisted; speedy pedigree bolsters hopes that he can adapt to 6f. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Quietly progressive, always close up when fourth of 12 on handicap debut over C&D (good; unraced on firmer) three weeks ago and he was only just behind Akho Mezzna and Bridge Of Eagles that day on almost the same terms; after just four races, he should still be open to improvement. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (1) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Out of the frame in three starts over 7f-1m2f at Newbury; open to progress now handicapping but whether he wants this far is debatable. |
4/1 |
|
6th 10 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
120,000gns foal; out of the frame here in his two starts, but he showed ability on both occasions as when sixth of 25 over 1m last month (second and third have won since); stamina not assured on breeding, but still interesting given the stable won this with a twice-raced colt last year. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Pulled hard when beaten at odds-on on her 7f comeback; it's not hard to pick holes in her Nottingham novice win, upped to this trip 16 days ago, but she did it in decent style and is unexposed entering handicap company; still holds an entry in next weekend's Irish Oaks. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Bettered her debut effort when runner-up to subsequent Listed-placed Sacred Ground at Yarmouth (1m, good) last October but she was disappointing on her reappearance at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) 27 days ago, dropping away after racing too freely; that may have taken the freshness out of her but she needs to settle better on her first try over 1m2f. |
11/8 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Bettered mildly encouraging 2yo debut when clear second of five behind very useful rival at Yarmouth (1m, good) in October; this drop back in trip is not an obvious move, but she should have more improvement to come this season and her Irish Oaks entry suggests she's held in some regard. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
0-4 for Clive Cox but 2-3 for this yard after narrow wins at Ripon (1m, good to soft) and over C&D (good to firm); came from off the pace a month ago to collect by a half-length off 5lb lower; well bred, he might well have more to offer. |
7/2 |
|
1st 2 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Justified favouritism when beating a clear second on his seasonal/stable debut at Ripon (1m, good to soft) in April; never dangerous when fourth in similar conditions at Nottingham last month but that was a Class 4 and he has shaped as though this new trip should be within range; needs a close look on this drop back in grade. |
11/2 |
|
4th 9 (1) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Opened his account with neck success, first two clear, in Class 6 handicap at Ripon (1m) on stable/seasonal debut; upped two grades but may have more to offer and, getting weight all round, looks one for the shortlist. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
All three wins have come over 7f and latest was at Southwell in March; creditable third back there next time but has found it harder on turf since; has returned to the mark he defied at Southwell but has too much too prove, including stamina for 1m (remote last of four previous attempt). |
25/1 |

7th 11 (10) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
All three wins have come over 7f and latest was at Southwell in March; only 2lb higher than for that win but he's finished down the field in last three runs and he's the most exposed runner in this line-up; passed over. |
20/1 |
|
7th 11 (12) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins have come over this trip but he finished two places behind Goldwork when only seventh of ten at Ascot two weeks ago; needs a positive reaction to the first-time hood. |

9st 7lb |
Seven races, best when beaten under a length in 1m handicaps here (firm/good) on last two occasions; not bred for 1m2f but has now been shaping as if worth a crack at it; also now tries headgear but he's one to consider. |
3/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

9st 5lb |
Off the mark on his return from six-month layoff at Kempton (1m, AW) in May off 4lb lower; below that form back on turf at Newbury since but may be worth another chance back on AW. |
7/2 |
|
8th 11 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has found his feet in Kempton AW handicaps at 1m on last two starts, just worn down (by one who would have been an unlucky loser) last November, then found a bright turn of foot to win on comeback; up just 4lb but he has a different question to answer this time, returned to turf with rain about. |
9/2 |

1st 11 (11) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Showed improvement when switched to handicaps in the autumn, finishing runner up at Bath (1m, soft) before going down by a head over this C&D; up 4lb on this return from six months off, but a few winners have come out of that race; respected. |

Local runner who is 1-1 at handicap level and may well show further progress; gelded prior to that Haydock success (7f, good to soft; held on narrowly) in October; should be well primed for this reappearance assignment, given the location, and warrants major respect. |

Promising debut fourth in Ascot maiden (6f, good) in July but he disappointed when favourite on AW in September and was beaten 20l back on turf (also 7f, good to soft) later that month; subsequently gelded and makes handicap debut with something to prove. |
