11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Two-time 7f winner who returned to form on his second start for this yard with a close third at Newmarket (1m, good) three weeks ago, when he raced alone on the near-side rail; however, he's up in grade today and untested at the trip, and he's not bred for this distance. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Won last October (7f, AW) on final run for Andrew Balding and he's also won on fast turf; couldn't get into it on recent stable/seasonal debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) but may have needed the run and his trainer had an impressive winner last week with one having his second run for the yard. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Useful juvenile who ended his 3yo campaign with a win in a Newcastle handicap (7f, AW) in October; been gelded and left Andrew Balding for 150,000gns since; remains feasibly treated off only 3lb higher than last time and he needs a close look on return for new yard. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Belied his 80-1 odds with close third at York last time (7f, good; second start for new yard) but it remains to be seen whether he can back up that effort; has proved quirky and developed inconsistency. |
10/1 |

3rd 3 (19) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Third in last year's International at Ascot (7f, good) off this mark, but he's not straightforward and last month's reappearance for a new stable with a tongue-tie added (retained) was disappointing (reported to have lost a shoe); drawn wide and can only really watch. |
33/1 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Patchy form for David O'Meara last term but won in June (good to firm; first-time hood) and ran a corker when third of 21 in valuable Ascot handicap (good) in July; back in form when slightly unlucky second at Newcastle (also 7f, AW) in October and sold for 40,000gns later that month; hood (absent when disappointing on final start) missing again; tongue tied for stable debut and warrants a market check. |

Her losing run stands at 26 but that doesn't do her justice as she's an admirable mare who has run numerous good races since that latest success; good third against male opposition at Newcastle four weeks ago; should get a good pace to aim at and more prize money would seem likely. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Novice winner for previous yard; 0-6 for current stable but ran encouragingly, despite being left with plenty to do, in last two starts; caught the attention of the stewards at Ffos Las (1m) latest; interesting with Oisin Murphy up for first time, assuming the cards drop right. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent and has failed to shine on last two starts but may have been unsuited by soft ground then Tapeta; runner-up at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) in August then fifth of 15 at Thirsk (7f, good) where he was denied a clear run, and it will be no surprise if he bounces back with a big effort. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |

Looked unfortunate when beaten less than a length into second of seven at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) last month and didn't enjoy a clear run when fifth of 15 at Thirsk (7f, good) since; acts on ground ranging from good to firm to good to soft; still 2lb below last winning mark; a player. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Reappeared for new yard with a near-miss at Kempton (6f, AW) in March but he's struggled at 50-1 back on turf in last two runs; got hampered early on at Ascot last time but he's hard to predict and needs to bounce back near best. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Unexposed 4yo; won a Redcar maiden (7f, good to firm) and a Newcastle novice (7f, AW) towards the end of last summer but he was well held on handicap at Newcastle in October; still has potential but this is competitive on his return and he needs to find more progress. |

10st 12lb |
Once a sprinter on the Flat but has won twice over hurdles since joining current yard, a Hereford maiden and a C&D novice (both on good); hard to know what to make of his remote second in a handicap back here a month ago when the winner strolled home by some 26l. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |

Useful on testing ground on the Flat early in career and this 4yo has tapped back into that promise over hurdles this spring, winning a maiden at Hereford (2m, good) in April on his second stable start and following up in a C&D novice (good); trainer won this with Clearance, after whom this race is named, in 2022 and 2024; intriguing candidate back in a handicap. |
