19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Five wins this year, with first four on AW and latest on turf at Redcar (7f, good) in May; placed twice since that last success but he didn't shine at Doncaster last time and he looks weighted near best off this mark. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Had a good season already and Toby Moore's claim is welcomed when he might be a shade high in the weights now; beaten 2l at Chester last time, just behind King's School whom he beat the time before. |

3rd 4 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Is enjoying a fine season and he racked up a fifth victory at Redcar (7f) in May; posted another very good effort with second of ten in 7f Newcastle handicap 24 days ago so he's a likely player once more. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over 1m on reappearance at Bath and has run respectably on four of last five outings; no reason why he shouldn't give a good account. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made all to make a winning handicap debut at Bath in June (1m, good); not used that as a springboard to better things and he wasn't at his best last time but no doubt he has the ability to feature. |

11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
8.6f winner at Wolverhampton on her final start for Roger Varian; two modest efforts for her new yard last month; something to prove for now. |
12/1 |

10th 5 (11) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ended time with Roger Varian with a breakthrough success over the extended 1m at Wolverhampton but well beaten over that same C&D on her first outing for new connections; back down in trip. |
10/1 |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Free-going filly; consistent rather than progressive but she's edging down the weights and has been running respectably at a modest level; this is her first run in 0-60 company and she should make a bold bid. |

11th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced maiden who reared as the stalls opened on turf last time and did well to get as close; that came off the back of a solid stable debut over C&D and he's shortlisted under Billy Loughnane (1-9 for the yard). |
6/1 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Six race maiden; well held in two handicaps for his previous stable but he posted a solid effort at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) on his first start for this yard 23 days ago; may come on from that first start for 168 days. |
9/2 |
|
4th 6 (5) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Signs of ability in novice/maiden company but failed to make immediate progress for the switch to handicapping, admittedly with an excuse - suffered interference on the home bend - over C&D last October; easing mark, but best watched off a 168-day absence. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has lacked consistency for current stable but is only 1lb higher than when recording an account-opening success on AW in December; fighting chance provided he's back in similar form. |
7/1 |

11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13th time lucky when winning a 9.4f handicap at Wolverhampton in December; not so good twice in January and now returns from an 11-week break; Oisin Murphy booked so a better showing would seem likely. |
12/1 |
|
8th 4 (6) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13th time lucky when justifying support at Wolverhampton (9.4f, Tapeta) last month; didn't fire back at that track three weeks ago but his penultimate form has worked out well and he's a player if he can get back near that level. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-9 but she's reached the frame in four of her handicaps including when fourth on C&D reappearance (good) two weeks ago; that was behind a major improver and she's a player if he can build on that. |
9/2 |

4th 10 (2) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Eight-race maiden but she ran respectably in handicaps last year, including when fourth at Wolverhampton in October; each-way claims returned to turf on her first start since. |
14/1 |
|
6 (5) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Seven-race maiden but she has shown some promise in handicaps this summer, including here (9.5f) four weeks ago; dropping back in trip shouldn't be an issue; each-way claims. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |

Gave impression something was possibly amiss last time; remains a longstanding maiden but his resurgent May efforts (finished third then close second) suggested a belated first win may be near. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Not disgraced when fourth of eight at Ffos Las (7f, good) last time and although 1lb out of the weights, is still 2lb lower than when gaining her sole success over C&D (soft; first-time cheekpieces) a year ago; worth a second look. |
10/1 |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent filly who offered more on her second run back a fortnight ago, when finding 6f an inadequate test (sole win came over this trip on soft ground); bit to find at the weights but is capable if on a going day. |
8/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

She hasn't run badly in fourth in handicaps here on her last two starts; a bit more will be needed to make the breakthrough but she's not fully exposed over 1m+. |

4th 13 (2) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Never figured at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) four weeks ago, but his previous form on Tapeta this year reads well (33161123) including a win over C&D; major player if putting that latest effort behind him. |
7/1 |
|
8th 6 (8) |
30th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well held on turf at Carlisle last time (first start for 54 days) but all three of his wins have been on the AW, two over 8.6f at this track; the return to this surface is a positive and he could go well. |
14/1 |
|
6th 1 (9) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Hit a good vein of form on AW earlier in the year, winning three times including over this sort of trip at Wolverhampton in March; 0-11 on turf but it was a fair effort when fifth at Doncaster last June and he's not ruled out. |
