9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up four times in a row (7f, good to firm) this summer, but his good spell came to a halt with a 12l defeat at Brighton (odds-on) last time; has bit to prove again after that and his losing run is mounting up. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Five C&D wins include this race for the last two years; not particularly convincing on 2025 form but has a good chance off current mark provided he's back on song. |
14/1 |
|
6th 1 (10) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Five C&D wins, three of those in cheekpieces on soft; has struggled for form this season (0-6), making only minimal inroads from the rear at Epsom (7f; eighth of 12; 50-1) latest; competes from an easing mark. |
12/1 |
|
8th 12 (9) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Two C&D wins earlier in career; conditions have been against him during the hot summer but he won the two most recent soft-ground races he contested, over 7f at Brighton last autumn, so the more rain the better; yard has won the last four runnings. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Four course wins, all over 7f on fast ground; only 1lb higher than for the latest success (June) but his more recent efforts have been unconvincing and an easy lead is unlikely. |
20/1 |

11th 1 (9) |
23rd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
All six wins have come at this trip, the latest when making all to win well at Brighton (good to firm) in June; took a step back in the right direction when fourth in a Class 4 over that C&D one month ago; interesting on this drop in grade. |
11/2 |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |

Four C&D wins to his name, the latest in June off 4lb lower; an easy lead would seem unlikely and this opposition may prove too demanding. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Inconsistent since winning off current mark over C&D in May; however, holds a fighting chance provided he takes well to new headgear and turns up in top form. |

6th 6 (7) |
13th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Won a 7f handicap at Brighton in May off 1lb lower; back to form when second at Chelmsford 16 days ago (7f); runs off the same mark and shouldn't be far away. |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded the 18th win of his long career when leading late over C&D in February (for Myla Coppins); ran well behind a thriving rival at Lingfield next time but he failed to fire over C&D a fortnight ago (finished behind Coloane); he has bounced back from quiet runs before so can't be ruled out. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
18th success of his long career when getting the better of Antiquity (winner since and runs in the 6.00) over C&D last month; bumped into an in-form opponent at Lingfield two weeks ago (7f; blinkered first time); another 2lb rise is not ideal but he is likely to give his running. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of enthusiasm and ran on well to beat a subsequent winner (Age Of Time third) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) three weeks ago, his 18th success; a 2lb rise not excessive but late in the day to be giving blinkers a go (has run well in new headgear before). |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins over 6f/7f here; just 2lb above his last winning mark but well held in both starts since returning last month, including when behind three of these over C&D eight days ago; more needed; stable also runs Jackson Street. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (9) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Not as consistent in recent times but rarely fails to give her running round here; little room for manoeuvre off this mark but a good test back down in trip will be fine and she holds each-way claims. |

9st 2lb |
Two C&D wins, both on good to firm; narrow winner of a 7f amateur jockeys' race at Salisbury in July and although lesser efforts over 1m have followed, he has possibilities back at 7f; new blinkers replace a visor. |
33/1 |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Exposed mare who is 0-6 for new stable this season; that said, she has posted three pretty good efforts (7f-1m2f) since fitted with cheekpieces last month and enters each-way calculations. |
10/1 |

5th 6 (5) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Nicely bred and a four-time winner at 7f/1m, with three of those wins here; has a bit to prove on the stamina front but has performed respectably in two races since cheekpieces went on. |
13/2 |

4th 5 (4) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

A fair 7f scorer for Harry Eustace last August; yet to show that form for her current handler but she wasn't disgraced with fourth of six in 7f classified event here 12 days ago; not out of things. |

Couple of 6f wins at Brighton last term; proved resurgent over C&D (good to soft) last week, going down by only a whisker; now 2lb lower and due to go back up 6lb in future; leading player. |
7/2 |

2nd 9 (1) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice here (6f) last year but on a downward trajectory since then; shaped okay here (fifth) on return from a 266-day absence in early September but his more recent AW efforts (6f-7f) have failed to offer further encouragement. |
20/1 |

11th 12 (1) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Suited by 7f on turf, winning at Leicester in July and running some good races in defeat since; unexposed on the AW, having raced in only one handicap on sand, but she needs plenty more than when well held at Chelmsford in September now back on Tapeta. |

Broke duck in 6f classified event on this track (good to firm) in July and ran as well as could have been expected in a better race here last month; back at the right level when on the heels of Roman Spring and Dreambird Dolly at Windsor recently and it should be close between them again. |
