9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His dam was a useful heavy-ground 6f 2yo winner but he was beaten a long way at 22-1 on last month's debut at Hamilton (6f, soft) and this Harry Angel gelding needs to leave that performance miles behind. |

22nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
40,000gns yearling; second foal; trainer is better known for older horses, but his dam was a useful heavy-ground 6f 2yo winner and this Harry Angel newcomer is worth a second look in view of the conditions. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
0-7 but he's yet to finish out of the frame; recorded his best effort for this yard when third in 5f Ffos Las maiden (good; first-time visor) one month ago; this return to 6f looks a positive move for his handicap debut. |
15/2 |

3rd 3 (1) |
14th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Becoming exposed after six defeats and two of those were at odds-on, including the latest at Brighton; consistent though and won't be far away provided the new visor doesn't trip him up. |
11/4 |

2nd 4 (5) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two promising runs (6f, good and soft) for another yard as a 2yo; not at the same level in three runs for James Fanshawe and hopes appear to rest on the faster ground sparking something extra from him; cheekpieces tried last time swiftly dispensed with. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Nine-race maiden; below form when only eighth at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) six weeks ago and still needs to prove himself on fast ground but has been given a good chance by the handicapper and this is his first run since last month's wind op. |
14/1 |
|
8th 1 (11) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to win but he has finished second three times in novice/maiden company; cheekpieces have been worn for his three handicap runs and he has finished unplaced, albeit a bit of mid-race interference didn't help his cause over C&D four weeks ago; now drops into a 0-70 and could yet come good. |
8/1 |
|
5th 2 (10) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Down the field on his handicap debut at Beverley (5f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) last month but ran a bit better when fourth of 11 at Haydock (6f, soft) 15 days ago; better still needed. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Running well since the visor went on in May and he has finished runner-up on his last three starts, the latest on Tuesday; should be in the thick of it again. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to win on turf, but sound runs when runner-up at Thirsk (5f, good) and Ayr (5f, good to firm) on last two starts; one with a chance. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
5f AW win in December; knocking at the door this year, including when a close second on his return to turf at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; now 2lb higher but likely to give his running. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Soundly beaten when upped to 1m at Royal Ascot seven weeks ago but is back in much calmer waters here and still has plenty of scope to progress from her winning seasonal/handicap debut at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April; shortlisted. |
6/1 |
|
14th 25 (28) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
6f maiden winner last season on soft ground; easily her best form was encouragingly on her reappearance on good to firm at Wetherby (7f handicap) where she was in rear for the most part but led late on for a length success; further progress is by no means out of the question for yard that won this in 2018 and last year. |
