19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Dual C&D winner who hasn't been running badly this year without getting the breaks; on a handy mark again and holds each-way claims into a stronger race. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Running fairly well this year and the handicapper's helped his cause; can sometimes miss the break but if giving himself a chance he might not be far away. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Handy sort who bounced back to form with easy wins over this trip at Musselburgh (soft) and Ayr (heavy) this month; only fourth of ten off this mark over C&D (good) ten days ago, but ground conditions today may be more to his liking and he is respected back down in grade. |

9st 4lb |
Suddenly thriving again, racing up with the pace when winning over this trip at Musselburgh and Ayr this month; those successes came on soft/heavy ground but he has plenty of form on good to firm; more of a concern is a further 8lb rise to a career-high mark. |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Best efforts were his three wins on good to soft and soft, two of them over Carlisle's stiff 6f last summer but he managed to get up late on over 5f at Catterick at start of this month (3lb higher today); 7f on heavy did not work out eight days later and he never threatened, after niggled along from some way out, when beaten over 4l at Leicester (5f, soft) yesterday. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Back from a wind operation to win narrowly at Catterick (5f, soft) earlier this month and 7f on heavy ground not an ideal combination last time; one to consider. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Made debut in July and showed ability in novice contests on turf in August, but she was soundly beaten at 18-1 on her handicap debut at Newcastle (7f, AW) a fortnight ago; unraced on slow ground. |
20/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Faces a more realistic task now handicapping at a low level but her last two efforts have come in slowly-run affairs and this opening mark isn't an obvious gift. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Chased home the bang-in-form Aisling Oscar over C&D in December, and he's 2-2 since returning from a break, winning at Southwell and Thirsk (both 1m); has risen a combined total of 10lb (3lb since latest) for those two wins, but he has to figure on the shortlist in pursuit of the hat-trick. |
11/4 |
|
1st 10 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Some narrow defeats on AW over the winter but he returned from a break with his best effort yet, overcoming some interference at Southwell (1m) last week to win in good style; has a 7lb higher mark to shoulder in his first 1m turf handicap but he could prove progressive. |
5/1 |
|
1st 11 (3) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
0-10 but he posted some good efforts last year, including when beaten a neck (by one who won his next four) at Newcastle (1m, AW) 138 days ago; steps up in grade on his first start since. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Out of the frame in eight completed starts but shaped as though worth a go over this far when fifth of 12 at Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta) last time; a couple of winners have come out of that race and he drops in grade; worth a second look. |
8/1 |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Unplaced in all eight starts; edging down the weights and now tries a new trip with headgear reinstated; not a solid option. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Poor form in seven starts last year; absent since pulled up in a 6f handicap at Catterick in late October; plenty to prove. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 6f scorer in 2025 for Alan Brown but yet to fire this term, only fifth of eight in 6f classified event here on her yard debut in March; lots more required after a break. |
20/1 |

5th 5 (4) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Won a 6f classified at Newcastle for Alan Brown in November but has rather lost her form since; sold for 1,400gns last month; stable debut. |
10/1 |

7th 4 (3) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Suited by the strong pace when coming from the rear to cause 66-1 shock in C&D handicap in November but unable to land any sort of blow on next four outings. |
20/1 |
