21st Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Couple of Class 5 wins in May/June; placed in two of her four outings since, creditable third in Class 4 at Haydock (1m) latest; again has each-way possibilities. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Races prominently; divided progressive 3yos when second at Chester (10.3f, good) before her struggles in 1m2f handicaps at York; this is nothing like so challenging as her latest assignment but testing ground casts some doubts. |
33/1 |

10th 16 (14) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Prominent racer who finished held in fifth of nine over C&D (good to firm) six weeks ago when last seen; however, she's won twice this season (1m/8.3f, good) and split two progressive fellow 3yos when second at Chester (10.3f, good) two starts ago; not discounted at likely big odds. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won five-runner races over 1m4f on good to firm at Thirsk (Temple third) and Newmarket in July; creditable placed efforts at up to 1m6f (including on good to soft) on his last three outings but it seems the handicapper has him about right. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won two five-runner races over 1m4f on good to firm in July, since which it's looked as if the handicapper has had his measure; still managed second on last two outings and although he needs to find a bit extra, it's possible that he's now ready for this first venture much beyond 1m4f. |
13/2 |

2nd 8 (6) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |

Tries hard enough but handicapped about right and came up short off this mark in a small field at Newmarket (1m4f); this looks more demanding. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won two in a row in August (7f/1m, good/AW; including nursery debut) and has run okay on her next two outings, but she needs to better those last two performances if she's to make a serious impact here. |
9/1 |
|
3 (6) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Cosy winner of a Musselburgh maiden (7f, good) in August and she did well to reel in the favourite on nursery debut at Lingfield (1m, AW) later that month; held behind Grimese's Special in seller at Salisbury (7f) last time but that was in the mud and she could kick on again on this step back up in trip. |
5/1 |
|
2 (2) |
12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Did well to reel in the favourite at Lingfield (1m nursery, AW), that her second straight success following a cosy Musselburgh maiden win (7f) from Ten Sixty Six - who also shares a form line with Castrillo; dam won on soft, so no reason why an easier surface will hinder. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Comfortably accounted for Mr Writer in 7f handicap at Lingfield in May; Listed races and a strong Ascot 3yo only handicap proved beyond her on next three starts but back to winning ways when making all in a seven-runner event over C&D (good to firm) five weeks ago; a 5lb rise isn't too severe but it'll likely be harder to pull off similar tactics in this much bigger field. |
12/1 |
|
1st 5 (5) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ran out the comfortable winner of a 7f handicap at Lingfield in May; highly tried since and she has come up short; others perhaps better treated. |
16/1 |
|
9th 5 (10) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Looked a little flattered when sneaking up the near-side rail to score at Lingfield (good to firm) in May but she more than matched that with very creditable fifth of six in Epsom Listed event (again 7f, good to soft) next time; never threatened in similar event at Carlisle a fortnight ago, however, which tempers confidence on this return to handicaps. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Off the mark at Doncaster in sole 1m2f attempt; mixed results over further since, looking a non-stayer over 1m6f on heavy ground most recently; return to this trip is the angle with her. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Won on stable debut at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) in April and ran pretty well when fourth of ten at Hamilton (1m5f, good) latest; however, she's 3lb out of the weights in a higher grade today and others are preferred. |
33/1 |
|
4th 10 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Made a successful stable debut/reappearance at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) in April, but a 5lb rise seemed to find her out at York (1m4f, good) the following month; bred to stay this far, but she needs to bounce back after 79 days off. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
In good form since joining this yard with wins at Ripon (1m, good to soft) in April and Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) in June; upped to 1m4f for his AW debut when a solid third at Southwell last time and this return to shorter and turf should be no problem at all; respected. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 10 (11) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
2-4 for this yard with narrow wins at Ripon (1m) and Doncaster (1m2f); another creditable effort over 1m2f last time; needs to resume improvement, which may be possible as he's just a 3yo but he's not bred for this new trip; it's also his AW debut. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 6 (1) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
0-4 for Clive Cox but 2-3 for this yard after narrow wins at Ripon (1m, good to soft) and over C&D (good to firm); came from off the pace a month ago to collect by a half-length off 5lb lower; well bred, he might well have more to offer. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Has been running respectably in nurseries and now drops back in distance; vulnerable to anything progressive but should give another good account from low draw. |

8 (1) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Kept on for third on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last month and suited by the step up in trip when second there (8.6f) last time, when clear of the third; thereabouts if the return to turf isn't an issue. |
9/1 |

2nd 7 (4) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Too Darn Hot colt who is out of 1m/8.5f winner; no impact in four runs so far but he made some late headway when third on nursery debut here (7f) 12 days ago; that was eyecatching and he looks interesting on this step up in trip. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |

She's hard to fancy on what she showed on her five starts in Ireland for Adrian McGuinness; however, her new trainer does very well with recruits from other yards and she's one to watch in the betting on stable debut. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 30y |

Beaten about 6l on nursery debut at Galway (7f) where she was slowly away on soft ground; did finish behind Invincible Will but could be given another chance under these conditions and now hooded. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in Bath maiden (1m, good to soft) last month on third start and third on subsequent handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW), but he was about 5l behind runner-up Vintage Heat on that occasion so has work to do. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 6 (7) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well held in first two runs but he got much closer to the target when runner-up in a Brighton maiden (1m, good to soft) last month; opening mark looks on the high side but it's still early days and he should have more to offer in nurseries; cheekpieces added. |
13/2 |
|
5 (10) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Showed only minor promise on his first two starts (7f/1m) and probably has low-grade handicaps on his agenda after this run. |
