4th 15 (11) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Midfield in competitive 1m contest at the York Ebor festival last week; steadily progressive at up to 7f otherwise and ties in with Ghost Mode on C&D form earlier in August (ran well despite being indirectly impeded by that rival coming off a true line); shortlisted. |
7/1 |

10th 12 (17) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Two 2yo wins (including on soft ground) and back on the scoresheet at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month; another big run when second of 13 at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; he's a headstrong sort but that didn't stop him finishing strongly last time and this first crack at 1m is well worth a go; he's one to consider. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 8 (10) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Versatile sort who held on narrowly from Proud Nation over 7f at Newmarket (good to firm) most recently, adding to his 2yo sprint wins and taking record to 3-7; ran creditably over C&D in May; solid chance. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden who has bled from the nose in her last three starts but she made some encouraging late headway when fourth at Redcar (6f, good) last month; continues to drop down the weights and has possibilities if she can find some extra spark. |
11/4 |
|
4th 6 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Six-race maiden; proved somewhat resurgent with fourth of six, beaten 4l, upped to 6f at Catterick (good to firm; bled from nose) most recently; may build on that effort. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Sole win in 23 starts came in a handicap at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) in February when trained by Brian Ellison; drops to this level for the first time, but has been well held in both starts for this yard and attempts this far for the first time; cheekpieces return. |
10/1 |
|
8th 6 (1) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Registered sole success in AW contest in February; returned to turf with a creditable effort but subsequent form is inconsistent; never figured on debut for new yard last time. |
20/1 |
|
9th 8 (4) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Off the mark on Newcastle AW in February (5f); ran well back on turf when runner-up at Nottingham (6f, good) in April but not so good in final two starts for Brian Ellison; sold for £1,000 since; regular cheekpieces left off on yard debut. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can pull hard; three places but no wins from 11 starts; capable of going well, as he showed when second in two races in the spring (one on the AW) but not particularly consistent. |
20/1 |
|
9th 2 (2) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
In the frame in six of his ten starts and 1lb higher than when going close over this trip at Southwell (AW) and Beverley (good to soft) in the spring; no headgear for the first time since his third start as a 2yo; each-way claims again. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Firmly on the up for his new stable, making all at Catterick before narrowly denied by Rotokura Belle over C&D; back to winning ways with a Newcastle success 15 days ago (much more convincing than the neck margin might suggest); up 6lb in a better race but he's a speedy and progressive 3yo who commands major respect. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Promise for Adrian Nicholls and plenty to spare when making all in a 5f handicap at Catterick on stable debut; bettered that form when neck second (Yellow Diamond 4l behind in fourth) of 13 at York (5f, good) 13 days ago, keeping on well despite losing his left cheekpiece approaching the final furlong; raised another 5lb but the third, Schrodinger's Cat, won easily at Redcar on Saturday; should have a big say on AW debut. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 15 (3) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
Showed promise for Adrian Nicholls and he had plenty to spare when making all in a 5f handicap at Catterick on his stable debut; 8lb higher and raised two classes but he's unexposed at 5f. |

19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Narrowly won 6f selling nursery here off 1lb lower in November; respectable keeping-on fourth in 6f course handicap last week; steps up to 7f for just a second time. |
11/2 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Narrowly won a C&D selling nursery off today's mark in November; below that level in his next three starts but he posted a good effort when third of 12 here 29 days ago; contender. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 9 (8) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Narrowly won C&D selling nursery off today's mark in November, his fifth start, but his subsequent three runs were underwhelming; others have more pressing claims. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Ended 2yo season with soft-ground maiden win over 6f at Pontefract but hasn't reproduced that form in four handicaps this year, including at Catterick six weeks ago; has been gelded and forecast rain may help. |
25/1 |
|
6th 5 (4) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ended 2yo season with soft-ground maiden win over 6f at Pontefract but hasn't reproduced that form in three handicaps this year, including at Chester on Saturday; has first-time cheekpieces added to the tongue-tie he's worn of late. |
9/1 |

5th 7 (5) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Ended 2yo season with soft-ground win over 6f at Pontefract; fared better back over this trip at Hamilton (good) in May but he's another for whom this easy 6f may be on the sharp side. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Speedy 3yo who made all at Catterick (6f, good) in May; raced alone against the far rail when sixth of 12 at Newcastle (5f, AW) in June and shaped when fourth at Leicester (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago as though the return to 5f would be well worth a go; could make a bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
4th 3 (5) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who gained his third win when holding on to land a Catterick handicap over 6f in May; ran well at Doncaster (6f, good) next time and it looks worth forgiving last month's Newcastle effort (5f, AW), having raced alone towards the far rail; could go well. |
3/1 |
|
6th 11 (1) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Headgear and a switch to minor handicaps have seen good progress since November, including scoring twice over 6f here; won again at Catterick (6f, good; made all) last month and good third of 14 at Doncaster (6f again) since; while best form has been at 6f, the speed he's shown in recent starts suggests he should be equally effective at 5f; likely to go well. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
8st 5lb |
Big prices and well held in three starts over 5f on turf; worth a mark check now making his nursery/AW debut in a first-time tongue-tie. |
20/1 |
|
9th 7 (7) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Land Force colt hinted at promise when a debut sixth in 5f Sandown maiden but he beat just one in similar event there 11 days ago; he has something to prove now. |
33/1 |
|
9 (7) |
12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Some headway in the closing stages on his C&D debut five weeks ago (50-1) but never the slightest threat to the principals; can do better at some point but he'll need a good step forward to win here. |
16/1 |
