24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since June 2024; now two grades and 14lb lower; placed at Redcar (7f, good) in October but disappointing since, including in cheekpieces at Southwell (7f) five weeks ago; headgear is tweaked again (visor) seeking the solution. |

Record of 5-37 on turf and 2-15 on AW; folded tamely returned to this sphere last time but has a good chance off current mark provided he rebounds in first-time headgear. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Consistency not his strong suit, but he is 2-5 over C&D and latest heavy defeat excusable on account of his wide draw; capable if on a going day. |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Nine-time winner who got back on track with a narrow success over C&D (17-2) in January; drawn out wide this time but he's only 2lb higher than for that last run and could be a major force again. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Usually ridden patiently; step back in right direction when keeping-on fifth at Kempton (7f, AW) this month, but his three turf wins in 2025 were gained over 1m and he'll probably need a strong pace to aim at over this trip. |

5th 9 (8) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Most wins come later in the year and is high in the weights (13lb higher than when last successful on the AW) after three turf victories last summer; not been at his best in two runs back. |

9st 6lb |
Won four Class 6 handicaps (7f-1m) in 2025, including on good to firm and heavy ground; back on last winning mark but he's been out of sorts in last four runs and needs a major revival back on turf; cheekpieces removed. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Related to a few useful winners, including on Tapeta; not much has gone right since a Polytrack win over 1m in the winter and better can be expected at this lower level and back up in distance, so is one to consider. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

1m winner here in the winter off 2lb lower who's struggled badly in three runs since (possible excuses for two of them); stable form could be better and he has to bounce back. |

Best efforts were in maiden/novice company over 7f on the AW last autumn; has been a bit disappointing in handicaps this season, pulling too hard last time; bit to prove. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who's won five already this year, the first four over C&D; a 5lb rise for his latest turf victory under 5lb claimer Jack Nicholls demands more but such has been his rate of progress he may well be up to it. |
11/4 |

1st 1 (10) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who landed his fourth 7f Newcastle success of the year when seeing off 13 rivals last month; his 2lb nudge for that is offset by his rider's claim; 0-4 on turf but probably a bit premature to suggest he won't prove fully effective on the grass. |
4/1 |

1st 8 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Front-runner who won three in a row over C&D at the start of the year; finished out the back behind Anthropologist here last month but he didn't lead in that race and raced freely after being crowded in the pack; this is another competitive event but he has possibilities if he can bounce back. |

Made the breakthrough at Leicester (7f, good to soft) last September and ended last season with two solid efforts over this trip; returns after 211 days off but she still has low mileage and needs watching in the market for in-form yard. |
