1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made a winning debut for this yard at Newmarket last July (5f, good to firm) and he is now 3lb lower; patchy record since but he can go well fresh and he has a good C&D run on his record. |

29th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Prominent racer; made a winning stable debut at Newmarket (5f) in July off 2lb higher; fair third at Chelmsford two weeks ago (6f) but more will be needed to come out on top this time. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Should be thrown in on even last season's best but he has found it tough going for Robert Cowell this year; drops in class with cheekpieces fitted but drawn widest and others look safer. |

14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Off a 3lb lower mark when very nearly winning a 6f Class 2 handicap here last October (soft) on final run for John Ryan; however, a case can't be made on what he's shown during a light 2025 campaign. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Interesting on the pick of his form and he's on the same mark as when second in a better race at Doncaster last October (6f, soft); two modest efforts for his new yard this year but this is less taxing than the Stewards' Cup last time. |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who got back on the up when making a winning return in 6f Newcastle handicap 18 days ago; up 3lb but had a bit in hand there and merits serious consideration. |
9/4 |

1st 6 (6) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Unexposed 4yo; created a positive impression when winning a 6f handicap at Chelmsford in October and his subsequent defeat at Doncaster is easily excused on account of the heavy ground; more to come this year and he's a strong candidate. |
11/4 |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Ran to a similar level in three runs as a 2yo, winning in Ireland on debut and placed at Musselburgh and Newmarket for this yard last August; gelded during his 418-day absence; unknown quantity. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
On a losing run but he got right back on track with fourth of 17 in handicap at Ascot (5f) last month; can go well off an unchanged mark. |
11/2 |
|
4th 9 (8) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Ran a fine race when third over C&D last July and he turns up here off an 8lb lower mark; poorly drawn when down the field at Lingfield on Good Friday; could bounce back with a big run. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple AW winner; quirky sort who often starts slowly but he finally got off the mark (in a change of headgear) on turf in 5f Goodwood handicap last month; up 3lb but he can make his presence felt again. |
4/1 |
|
1st 2 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on AW; record of 0-16 on turf but he was only beaten a nose off this mark at Bath (5f, firm) on Monday; has leading claims if he can repeat that form and he's versatile ground-wise; regular hood is removed and cheekpieces return. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple AW winner; hindered by being hampered on Good Friday last time; 0-15 on turf but ran creditably (finished second) in this race last year; place claims off same mark. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
He hasn't looked ahead of his mark in four handicap runs this year but eased 2lb since latest and now tried in blinkers; tongue-tie left off today. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Highly tried last season and then underwent wind surgery; hasn't been far away in 7f/6f handicaps the last twice and it was a competitive affair last time at Leicester; has a chance. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Highly tried after his winning 2yo debut; had wind surgery prior to his return last month and he has shaped okay in both starts this summer, latterly a close fourth over 7f here 18 days ago; returning to 6f will suit but a step forward is required. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Below par on AW last autumn on final two runs for Stuart Williams; however, he twice went close on the other Newmarket course (6f, good to firm) last August and he'll be bang there if rediscovering that form on his stable and seasonal debut, for which he wears a tongue-tie; remains in same ownership. |
14/1 |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner on debut 12 months ago; maintained his unbeaten record when winning a Windsor novice on his return in May; 0-6 in handicaps since but he was second twice at Newmarket in August and he didn't get a clear run at things at Kempton three weeks ago; one to consider. |
7/1 |
|
7 (3) |
24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won on debut at Chelmsford in October (his sole start on AW) and followed up under a penalty at Windsor 214 days later; nothing wrong with his last two runs and looks worth another go over this longer trip of 7f. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Usually a reliable sort whose five wins have all been over 6f; beaten a head over 5f at Wolverhampton in March and a shade disappointing back on turf subsequently but should give a better performance here. |
7/1 |
|
10 (8) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
All five wins have been this trip but he had a near-miss over 5f at Wolverhampton in March; only 1lb higher today but he was a disappointing favourite back on turf at Doncaster (5f, good to soft) last time; has a bit to prove again after that and this is a step back up in grade. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Down the field in two AW runs back from a break, the latest at Chelmsford last week; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but he has a good record on soft ground and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue. |
16/1 |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Easy win over C&D in December off 3lb lower; should be sharper with his recent return to action behind him but others preferred at this level. |
25/1 |

11th 7 (12) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In good order last winter, winning easily at Chelmsford last December and finishing second over C&D (off 2lb higher) in January; drawn wide on his return from 226 days off and likely there will be other days. |
