20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Beaten 13 times since last win at Newcastle (7f, AW) last September but close fifth of seven at Ayr (1m, good to firm) recently and he may appreciate the return to 7f; his mark continues to fall and he might not be far away. |

Has done his winning over 6f/7f, the last five times on AW (hasn't scored on turf since 2023); kept mostly to Newcastle since last September; not the percentage call in this scenario. |

12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Has been kept busy since winning over C&D off a 2lb lower mark in December; went in again at Southwell on Tuesday evening and needs respect. |

1st 4 (2) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Not the most consistent but still capable on his day, as when winning a 6f handicap at Newcastle in December (2lb higher today); handy draw and no surprise to see him show up well. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Sole win from 18 starts on the AW came at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December and bounced back to form when runner-up there ten days ago; makes each-way appeal returned to 7f off a 2lb lower mark (4lb well in). |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time C&D winner, latterly after a five-month break off 4lb lower last August; another solid effort fresh when not far behind Lord Capulet and The Green Man four weeks ago and is 7lb better off with the winner; can miss the break but is considered. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (6) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has a fine record over C&D including three wins, four seconds and four thirds; didn't fire here in his final run last year but he remains feasibly treated on his best form and his last win was after a break; needs watching in the market back from 139 days off. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins on AW; decent third at Southwell (1m, AW) last month but unable to back that up returning to turf when 14th of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to firm); seems better on AW. |
9/1 |
|
14th 13 (10) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three wins (7f/1m, all AW) and it was a good effort when third in Southwell series final (1m, AW) 17 days ago; having a rare foray on grass but did finish second in good-ground Chester handicap (6f) in September; not dismissed from his lower turf mark. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Ended his 2025 campaign with a heavy-ground 7f double at Doncaster; better form this season when third of 22 to Mezcala in the Spring Mile at same track (good to soft) and close third at Chester (7.6f, good) ten days ago, but he's edging back up the weights. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Ended his 2025 campaign with a heavy-ground 7f double at Doncaster; underlined how well he operates on Town Moor with a good third of 22 in the Spring Mile (good to soft) on reappearance in March; claims if he can reproduce that sort of form at Chester (first visit). |
16/1 |

3rd 16 (9) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Ended his 2025 campaign with a heavy-ground 7f double that took his overall record at Doncaster to 3-3; acts on any going and has been very competitive (223) in 1m races on turf; respected kept to this track. |

15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has done all his winning on good ground, including over 1m at Nottingham and Ripon in last two starts; this front-runner switches to a much bigger field, which may not be ideal, but is otherwise at the top of his form; effective at 7f. |
15/2 |

1st 1 (8) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Built on Wolverhampton comeback run (7f) when showing a willing attitude to make all at Nottingham (8.5f, good) last Saturday; 3lb rise isn't insurmountable but he is set to compete from a career-high mark, so further progress is required. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Has lost his form since a consistent spell and still has a poor strike-rate, with sole success in 2023; no certainty to take advantage of his reduced mark. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Just one win from 26 starts and he hasn't been firing on all cylinders of late, including when fitted with blinkers at Redcar on Wednesday; full revival required. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Sole win from 25 starts came in a novice at Southwell in December 2023; ran well when fourth there last month but he needs to bounce back from two disappointing runs since; blinkers now replace cheekpieces. |

9st 1lb |
Fifth of 14 in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 6lb lower; four wins at Southwell this year, the latest over 6f three weeks ago, but that shorter trip probably suits her better. |

1st 4 (6) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Usually seen over further these days, but is 2-2 over C&D this year; still 4lb above her last winning mark, but this consistent mare should again go well. |

Enjoyed a revival this year, winning three handicaps at Southwell; ran up to her best in a Class 2 fillies' handicap at Lingfield ten days ago but the field finished in a heap and she will need more to beat male opposition this time. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner who bounced right back to form when second of ten back here eight days ago; already due a 2lb rise for that but stall 13 is far from ideal. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 8 (5) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three Tapeta wins, including C&D; recent form figures not inspiring but she didn't run too badly when sixth of 14 over C&D on her first run back from wind surgery and an excuse emerged last time (reportedly lost action). |
18/1 |
|
9th 10 (7) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Three Tapeta wins at other venues; finished behind Twilight Diamond at Southwell 24 days ago (first run after a wind operation); may get closer this time. |
