16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Couple of 6f wins at Brighton last term; proved resurgent over C&D (good to soft) last week, going down by only a whisker; now 2lb lower and due to go back up 6lb in future; leading player. |

2nd 9 (1) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice here (6f) last year but on a downward trajectory since then; shaped okay here (fifth) on return from a 266-day absence in early September but his more recent AW efforts (6f-7f) have failed to offer further encouragement. |

Scored three times off higher marks last year but has a doubt over current form, having posted two substandard efforts since belatedly returning to action. |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Over two years since his last success but he retains some ability and begins life with his new stable off a lowly mark (left Julie Camacho for £7,000 last month); others appeal more. |

9st 6lb |
His last win was in June 2023 but that was off 12lb higher at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) and he's run several good races this season; wasn't beaten far with visor added at Southwell last time and he's in the mix back on turf. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Drew nicely clear to end lengthy losing run in basement-grade classified race on turf return at Nottingham (6f, soft) on Thursday; faces tougher task here but remains well handicapped on older form (even under 4lb penalty) and will be fine on the faster ground. |
11/4 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Poor strike-rate for one of his ability; drops into first 0-50 classified event and has good 7lb claimer booked; should give a good account. |
4/1 |
|
5th 5 (5) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both of his wins from 41 starts have been on turf, the most recent in October 2023, but he was unlucky not to finish closer at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 31 days ago; each-way claims if things drop right for this hold-up performer. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
0-7 on the AW between September and April, but he has won his last five races on turf; patiently ridden as usual and led late at Brighton (5f, good to firm) six weeks ago; edging up the weights only slowly and in the mix once more. |
100/30 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Mark eased after a fruitless spell on the AW and made it four wins on the spin on turf when going in off 5lb lower five weeks ago; currently 2-2 round here and it's hard to find any negatives. |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Eight-race maiden who was safely held on first three starts for current stable, most recently when fifth of six over C&D a fortnight ago; has a tendency to race too freely and it's very hard to predict whether the addition of blinkers will have a positive effect today. |
20/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
17th Feb 2026 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't proved any more tractable for the addition of a hood on her last two starts, dropping away in handicaps here (8.6f) and at Chelmsford (6f); continues to edge down the weights and the new tongue-tie could help. |
7/1 |
|
6th 5 (8) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Some promise in three handicap runs, including her stable debut last month (8.6f, raced too freely), and this return to 6f should suit; others have more obvious claims though. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Consistency wasn't his strong suit for his former yard and his recent stable debut was hardly chock full of promise; drops in grade but comes with risks attached. |
20/1 |
|
10th 9 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Made it tenth-time lucky when scoring over C&D for Joseph Parr in December, but held in all three starts since; makes his stable debut after six months off having changed hands for 4,400gns in February; watch market. |

5th 6 (3) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

Back to form with a 6f win at Southwell in December but he has followed it with two lesser efforts; tries new headgear this afternoon. |

9st 8lb |
Four of his five AW wins have been at this track and the other at Wolverhampton; only 1lb higher than for June's Wetherby win but hasn't been at best on his last two starts; better is needed back on the AW but he's capable. |
11/1 |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Five wins this year (7f-1m) have come at a cost mark-wise and has to bounce back from below-par run at York three weeks ago (jockey said he ran flat). |

Sole win on turf came over two years ago and his last two efforts have been moderate; this mark is fine if first-time cheekpieces spark him back to life, however. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Two wins at Newcastle (6f, AW) this year, but not very consistent and was well beaten at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last month; 2lb out of the weights; stable also runs White Ladder. |

Record of 0-4 for William Knight, failing to back up debut form; remains in same ownership; the market signals may ascertain whether improvement is expected. |
14/1 |
|
11th 4 (7) |
19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has failed to back up debut effort in two subsequent starts but this switch to handicap level may prompt a turnaround; bred to do better, being a sibling to five winners. |
14/1 |

4th 1 (3) |
4th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Shaped well on her debut when sixth of ten at Newbury (7f, good) in April but produced a lesser effort when eighth of nine at Doncaster (7f, good) 25 days ago; drops in distance and she has potential but needs to take a step forward. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Always been best on the AW but off the mark on turf in a 0-50 classified event ten days ago; did a lot of racing over this trip in the past but does seem more effective over 6f these days and history suggests he's no good thing to back up Yarmouth. |
7/1 |

1st 5 (7) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both his wins have come at Southwell (6f/7f, AW) and he's offered little in three 6f/7f handicaps on turf this summer; others are preferred. |

|
10th 10 (1) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Just one win from his 21 starts but he was twice a runner-up over C&D last autumn and he is now 4lb lower than for the second of those efforts; recent runs need bettering if he is to take this though. |
16/1 |

6th 6 (4) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Just one win from 17 starts (5.5f, good to firm; off 3lb lower mark) but he comes here on the back of two good second-place finishes at Southwell; clear of the third on latter occasion and a 2lb rise justified; should be in the thick of it. |

One of her three wins came over C&D; off the mark for this stable when comfortably seeing off eight rivals at Newcastle two weeks ago (6f); drawn wide but a 3lb rise looks manageable. |

Has won off higher marks when trained by Ivan Furtado in 2024; 0-8 for current yard but was close second at Yarmouth (6f, soft) two runs back; on a career-low mark and cannot be discounted. |
