20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Looked very much one to follow after winning his final three runs last term (1m, good to firm/good to soft); that hasn't been the case but he was beaten just a nose at Hamilton (1m, good) two starts ago and perhaps the first-time blinkers will prompt a bigger performance; unproven on soft/heavy. |
11/1 |

6th 1 (5) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Reappeared with respectable seventh of 21 in the Lincoln at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) and built on that when going down by a nose at Hamilton (extended 1m, good) three weeks ago; while his improvement since being gelded has come at around 1m his fourth over 1m2f at Nottingham last June was as good as anything he'd produced at that time; much respected on AW debut. |
2/1 |

2nd 4 (7) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Made it 3-3 since being gelded (good to firm/good to soft) when winning by 3l at Haydock (1m) last October; reappeared with respectable seventh of 21 in the Lincoln at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) and this lightly raced 4yo could build on that latest effort today; firmly in calculations. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
6lb below his last winning mark and does have form on soft ground, but he finished behind four of these over C&D (good to firm) on his penultimate start and a record of 1-24 on turf does pose a question. |
16/1 |

5th 4 (8) |
19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Five of his six wins have come on AW, including C&D; last won at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in January; not so good on turf of late but he's dangerously handicapped if the switch back to AW prompts a revival. |
6/1 |

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

Five of his six wins have been on the AW but consistent handicapper on all surfaces and ran well in a Class 3 at Doncaster latest (7f; fine at 1m); thereabouts. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Two AW wins in the winter (9.4f/1m2f); it's possible he's gone off the boil but when beaten 8l in ninth of 13 at Newmarket a fortnight ago he was denied a clear passage before keeping on nicely; not ruled out each-way back up in trip. |
25/1 |

9th 5 (11) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |

Won twice on the AW over the winter but he seems to have gone off the boil, well beaten at Newcastle on Good Friday; not so effective yet on turf; others make more appeal. |
16/1 |

11th 13 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in December and over this C&D in January; below best at Wolverhampton (8.6f) latest and he's running in a higher grade than he's used to, but he has an each-way shout on the pick of his winter form. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
0-12 since winning off 2lb higher at Carlisle (7.7f, soft) in June last year, but has gone close a couple of times in that period as when beaten a head and a neck into third of 14 at Newcastle (1m, AW) last month (winner has gone in again twice since); goes very well on soft ground and has won twice here (7f/8.5f); a player. |

5th 6 (8) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Promising fifth in the Spring Mile on his return and then found only a stablemate too strong at Ripon in April (both 1m, good to soft); not so good at Pontefract last time when faced with good ground; the more rain to fall the better for him. |

Did well on the AW in his younger days (112112) including a win over C&D, but not seen on an artificial surface since April 2023; showed a bit more when fifth of eight at Haydock (1m, good to soft) 12 days ago and is an interesting contender back on Polytrack; stable also runs Tempus. |

10st 0lb |
Gained last success off just 1lb lower at Meydan in March; hasn't scored on home soil for over two years but ran respectably in competitive field at York (1m) last Friday; possibilities back down in grade. |
13/2 |
|
5th 13 (16) |
10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Failed to kick on after big-field handicap win at Meydan (1m, good to firm) in March but returned from a break in the Cambridgeshire (1m1f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and was denied a clear run when finishing an encouraging 11th of 23; he may be able to build on that performance. |

Gained most recent success in AW Vase race on Good Friday; has steadily got back into the swing of turf racing and went very close at Thirsk (7f) last Saturday, running at least as well as he's ever done; the signs are positive. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Winning debut on AW at Wolverhampton (7f) last March but was well held in two handicaps later; however, he posted a solid effort when third at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) on reappearance, having undergone wind/gelding operations, and should come on for that; this return to 1m could suit. |
5/1 |

3rd 5 (3) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't build on a promising start on AW last spring, including well held in 1m Haydock handicap (good to soft) on sole turf start; has been gelded and had a second wind operation ahead of this return from eight months off; it's still early days but his profile isn't compelling. |

Prescott colt whose 7f AW novice form features a win (debut) and good fourth; paid for kicking clear too soon last time; had wind surgery since; bred to stay this new trip and remains open to further progress. |

1st 2 (2) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
His losing run is up to 13 and he's not as good as he was, but off a reduced mark he's run well to be third on his last three outings, over C&D (good to firm) last time after a two-month break; could be thereabouts. |

1m AW winner for Charlie Appleby as a 2yo but he's struggled in five runs for his current yard; now 19lb lower than for his opening mark but he has plenty to prove on this drop back in trip; headgear removed. |

7th 2 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

1m AW winner for Charlie Appleby as a 2yo; barely beat a rival in five handicap runs in 2025 (sold after the first of them) but he has tumbled down the weights and has his first run in 0-70 company with new headgear fitted; market confidence should be noted. |

Dual winner; 0-5 for Stuart Williams but had been holding his own in 7f handicaps until a lesser show last time; whether he's quick enough for 6f is the glaring concern (all 23 runs from 7f to 1m2f). |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
One win apiece for his previous two yards; 0-4 this season for new stable but is in form, close fifth at Ascot most recently; getting no respite from the assessor, so the 7lb claimed by Olivia Haines looks a help. |
8/1 |

5th 14 (6) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Inconsistent sort who is opposable on the majority of his form over the last 12 months and was only sixth at Newmarket last time; however, he's popped up with the odd big run, finishing third in this last year and filling the same position in a big field at York last month; not a forlorn hope each-way. |
