5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
12-race maiden who was well held in a novice hurdle last time but he finished runner-up in a Southwell handicap (1m3f, AW) on his penultimate run; returns after five months off but he needs checking in market back in this sphere. |
8/1 |
|
4th 8 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Tailed off in all three runs over hurdles; also a maiden on the Flat, though was runner-up in a 1m3f AW handicap on final run in March; others are preferred. |
40/1 |

2nd 3 (10) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Maiden who has raced mainly over 1m; ran respectably from the front at Kempton most recently; doesn't appear to be crying out for this return to a middle distance. |

7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won an AW maiden (1m) for George Boughey last autumn but he's struggled in three runs for new yard this season; mark continues to fall but he needs a major revival back on Tapeta. |
25/1 |
|
6th 4 (8) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Low-mileage 4yo, who won an AW maiden (1m) for George Boughey last autumn but he's been tailed off in two runs for new yard this season; has lots to prove and needs a major revival back in trip. |
33/1 |
|
10th 8 (9) |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Low-mileage AW winner who trailed home last of 12 at Newmarket on stable/seasonal debut; best watched unless the market suggests he's likely to leave that effort behind. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
0-7 but third in both visits here, the latest over 1m4f last month (winner has gone in again since); looked as though he would get further there and worth a second look. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 11 (3) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Denied a clear run when keeping on for third here (1m3f) last month on second handicap start; failed to match that when fifth at Kempton (1m4f) ten days later but the return to Southwell could boost his claims. |

18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice in midsummer for James Ferguson, including C&D; low-key stable debut last month but back on the up with his C&D second 17 days ago; Billy Loughnane retains the ride; considered. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Hit form on AW this summer for James Ferguson, winning at Newcastle (1m2f) in June, and followed up over C&D with Billy Loughnane on board the following month; not so good at Southwell last time on stable debut but may be worth another chance here. |

9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Five-race maiden; down the field in 1m event at Kempton last time, failing to build on reappearance effort (1m2f); however, may benefit from this return to a longer trip. |
12/1 |
|
9th 9 (6) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Lightly-raced ex-Irish maiden; off eight months and not disgraced on his handicap debut with fifth of 11 at Leicester (1m2f) in May; needs to build on it here. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Son of Teofilo who cut little ice in a trio of runs in 2025, seventh in 1m Lingfield maiden in September; lots more is needed on his return/handicap debut. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Second of nine on his debut at Southwell in March (7f) but he hasn't built on it in three runs since, including tried in blinkers on his stable debut four weeks ago (1m); goes handicapping with a tongue-tie fitted but he has a point to prove at present. |
20/1 |
|
7 (2) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Looked promising when dead-heating for second of nine on his Southwell debut (7f, Tapeta) in March, but didn't build on it in his next two starts; makes his stable debut (same owners) in first-time blinkers after four months off; a player if rediscovering his debut form. |
9/4 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
150,000gns yearling; made a promising start when dead-heating for second at Southwell (7f AW) in March and the step up to 1m seemed to stretch him at Newbury (eighth of 12) last month; gelded since and cheekpieces are now added but he sets a good standard on his initial form and is a key player back in trip. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Ex-Jamie Osborne; poor form in maiden/novice company at up to 1m4f and needs to improve on handicap debut. |
20/1 |
|
8 (8) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
No promise in two starts, including on stable debut at Ffos Las (1m, soft) last month (behind Redbud Sixteen); hard to recommend. |
66/1 |
|
3 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
100,000gns breeze-up 2yo; took a while to make the track given her sales profile and she didn't show much at a biggish price at Kempton (1m3f, AW) last month; left Jamie Osborne for 2,500gns since and can only be watched on stable debut. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
4yo who bolted up with two front-running wins in June and latest was at Newbury (1m3f, good); flopped in hat-trick bid at Doncaster, but she bounced back with a second behind a well-handicapped rival at Salisbury (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago; needs to find more to defy this mark but she's still lightly raced and this new trip should be within range; in the mix. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who posted two easy wins in June (including C&D, good/good to firm) before a disappointing run at the start of July (1m2f, good to firm); however, a two-month break may have helped and she could bounce back with a big performance; effective on soft ground. |
9/2 |
|
7th 5 (4) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Two easy wins from the front in recent weeks, appreciating the step up to this sort of trip back on turf; due to be 4lb higher from tomorrow, after last week's Newbury demolition, and her claims are obvious for a yard bang among the winners. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Good-ground novice winner on turf who was landing a second AW handicap when she scored by a neck at Wolverhampton (8.5f) 18 days ago; that was her best effort yet but she'll need another pb on her first attempt at a Listed race. |
20/1 |
|
1st 6 (12) |
7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a Leicester novice (7f, good) and a Newcastle handicap (1m, AW) last autumn; solid efforts in her first two starts this season but she's been well held in last two runs; had some traffic issues at Glorious Goodwood, but she's drawn out wide back on AW and others are preferred. |
10/1 |
|
10th 5 (12) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Landed a Leicester novice (7f, good) and a Newcastle handicap (1m, AW) last autumn; solid efforts in her first two starts this term, but was a bit disappointing at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago; drawn high and needs to get back on track. |
