17th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Progressed well in 2025 (a three-time winner around 1m) until hooded and only 13th in Saint-Cloud Listed event (1m) on her final run in November; headgear is quickly dispensed with and she appeals as the sort to do well again in 2026. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made a winning start in handicaps at Hamilton (9f) in August and not disgraced off a 4lb higher mark when fifth of ten at York (9f) following month; she can make her presence felt. |
9/1 |

7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Made all in a Chepstow maiden (1m, good) and picked off the front two for a successful handicap debut at Hamilton (1m1f, good to firm); not sure that told us a great deal (the runner-up is now high in the weights after a prolific season) but a 4lb rise isn't the end of the world and she's in the right hands to keep progressing. |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Sole win from 13 starts came in a 1m novice at Windsor on soft ground in May 2024 when trained by Charlie Hills; runner-up at Lingfield (1m, AW) on stable debut in February and again at Doncaster latest (7f, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie); hood is now added; quicker ground would be a concern. |
5/1 |

2nd 2 (15) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Novice winner who is 0-9 in handicaps but has started favourite in both runs (1m, AW) for new yard and the way he shaped last time suggests this return to 7f is worth exploring; tongue-tie fitted; possibilities. |

9st 0lb |
Progressive son of New Bay who returned with an impressive victory in 1m2f Nottingham handicap last month; hiked up 8lb but showed a good turn of foot there so big shout. |
100/30 |

1st 2 (7) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a maiden at Haydock (1m, good) last May but he's not really gone on from that in handicaps since; ended last season with two respectable thirds at this track (8.3f/1m2f) but he needs to find something extra after 161 days off. |
6/1 |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won maiden at Haydock (good) in May and a good, plugging-on third here (good to soft; alongside Sea Poetry) three weeks ago; lesser displays over 1m2f (good) and 1m1f (soft) in between seem to dent his prospects, though. |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won last November (7f, good to soft) on her only start as 2yo; minor honours in four races this season (the exception was Royal Ascot) and she made late gains to take a good fourth of ten here (1m, good to soft) on latest, closing to within a short head of Love Beach for third; that was her best form and suggested that this new trip is well worth a go, which is backed up by her pedigree; considered. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
AW form this year features two wins in January and creditable fifth in the Lincoln Trial; only 1-14 on turf and looks unfavourably handicapped, being 4lb higher than last appearance in this sphere. |
20/1 |
|
4th 8 (3) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
1m Polytrack wins at Chelmsford and Kempton in January; respectable fifth in Class 2 events on last two starts, including over 8.6f here 13 days ago but it remains to be seen whether this step up in trip will suit him. |
7/1 |

5th 12 (9) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 2 |

Won Class 4 handicaps at Chelmsford and Kempton in January; respectable efforts in stronger company twice since but he needs a career best to take this. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Already a three-time scorer (around 1m) in 2025 and he comes here on the back of a very good second of 13 in 1m Newcastle handicap; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (12) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Career win number eight when prevailing narrowly in a Class 4 at Beverley (extended 1m) and tends to find Class 2s too tough these days, so excused his Doncaster run; only 1-17 on the AW but could be a factor. |
14/1 |

10th 12 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Front-runner who won five times last April-July (good/good to firm) and took it up another notch with easy all-the-way win in 13-runner Musselburgh handicap (1m, good) under Tom Kiely-Marshall on reappearance 11 days ago; that was an apprentice race so she escapes a penalty and is 9lb well in compared to her future mark. |
3/1 |

1st 1 (7) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Front-runner who won five times last April-July (good/good to firm), including over C&D; down the field at Nottingham last October when last seen but this mark isn't necessarily beyond her in view of her good third at Haydock (1m, good) in September; could make a bold bid if fully tuned up. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Son of Dark Angel landed 1m Carlisle novice in July but failed to build on it on his handicap debut when only eighth at Haydock (1m) 32 days ago; hood is reached for now. |
25/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Has run just three times and he rallied to win at Carlisle (1m, good to soft) when last seen in July; hardly looks thrown in for today's handicap debut but he's unexposed and could find the necessary improvement to follow up. |
5/1 |
|
7 (11) |
10th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Promising start when third of 11 here over 7f in May (good to firm) but he couldn't build on that when fourth of 10 at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 23 days ago; slower ground would be an unknown but he is related to soft-ground winners. |

9st 10lb |
A dual 7f/1m winner in 2024; lightly raced this term and got back on track when fifth of 11 in 7f Haydock handicap 12 days ago; one to consider off an easing mark with blinkers added. |
8/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice last June (7f, soft/1m, good to firm) and he is now 1lb lower than for the second success; only midfield in two starts last month (after a year off) but he has the ability to feature. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Held by Kodi Lion on Haydock running but may fare better with that reappearance effort under his belt; however, perhaps ideally needs a drop back in grade, having never won above Class 4. |

3yo who is 1lb lower than when first past the post over C&D in July (good; demoted due to interference); also effective on soft; down the field at Goodwood and York since but this is less competitive; not written off. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Below par on AW when last seen in August but he's 2-2 on going softer than good, latterly a 1m Carlisle handicap (soft) at the expense of the reopposing Look Back Smiling; no surprise were he to resume his progression now back on deep ground. |

Low-mileage 4yo who scored at Carlisle (1m) in July and backed it up with a solid third of ten in 1m Newcastle handicap 25 days ago; he must enter calculations off the same mark. |
