2nd 3 (8) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winner, mainly over 6f, the latest when 2lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) in April; went close when on this mark in successive starts last month, before a below-par effort in a big-field York sprint latest; player if he can bounce back. |

20th 6 (18) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner; runner-up on his last two starts but this is more competitive and more minor money may be his best hope. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Well handicapped on this year's best, including a close fourth over C&D in April; has had the odd excuse since and he ran perfectly well over an inadequate 5f at York three weeks ago (not well drawn); a big run could be on the cards. |
12/1 |
|
10th 5 (13) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
4lb lower than for his last two 6f wins but recent efforts have been underwhelming and he's unproven over the minimum trip. |
22/1 |
|
11th 4 (9) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Drawn wide when down the field at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) last time; his earlier 6f form brings him right into the reckoning and rain would be a positive; solid chance. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Yet to score this term but his sixth of 21 at the Ebor festival (6f, good to firm) indicated he might be rediscovering his level; that didn't prove the case at Windsor last time but he's too well handicapped to ignore and rain would certainly not hinder him. |
10/1 |
|
9th 16 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Saw out 2025 with three AW wins from his final four starts but he's played only minor roles in turf handicaps this year, including when beaten nearly 5l behind King Of Light over C&D in May; could do with some rain or, failing that, a return to the AW as he's well treated now. |
25/1 |
|
6th 15 (12) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ended 2025 in fine form on AW; 0-7 in 2026 but he has slipped 6lb below his last winning mark and has Toby Moore taking another 7lb off his back; suspicion a few will prove stronger. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
His wins have come on slow ground but he was beaten only 3l in a big field at York (7f, good to firm) last month; that was a creditable effort after a slow start and he ran well over this trip at Ayr on his penultimate run; could be dangerous. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual sprint winner for previous yard; best effort for new stable when fifth over C&D on penultimate start; chance of faring better partly depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear. |
12/1 |
|
12th 4 (2) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Not beaten far into fifth at Wolverhampton seven weeks ago (7f), his second run for new connections; dropping to a stiff 6f should help and he still has time on his side. |
12/1 |
|
5 (6) |
24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 5f novice at Wolverhampton on his second start and followed up in a 6f handicap at Kempton in January; absent since finishing down the field in a Listed race at Chantilly (6.5f, AW) in March; should be capable of better but raced exclusively on AW and the suitability of heavy going has to be taken on trust. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins this year, the latest a front-running C&D success in June; solid third off this mark at Hamilton 11 days ago; has other pace to contend with this time. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner whose three turf wins have all been on ground slower than good, the most recent coming when holding on at Chester (6f, good to soft) two months ago; may not have things all his own way in front but commands respect off this 2lb higher mark. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
His two turf wins (6f) came on soft and heavy; in good form this year and he made all at Southwell (6f, AW) in April; latest fourth at Carlisle was a fair effort on Tuesday and he's well drawn to attack. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Only 1-16 and he's 3lb higher than the mark he won off in April 2025, despite since going 0-11; hasn't been running badly but looks vulnerable once more; effective in this returning headgear combination. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a good mark on 2025 best and he has been running himself into form this time around, third of ten (beaten 1l) at Carlisle four weeks ago; conditions no problem and he is one to consider. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Record is only 1-14 but he's attractively treated and proved resurgent with rallying fifth at Thirsk (7f, good) last month on third start for new yard; not ruled out. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Sole win from 12 starts came in a novice here over 6f last summer; returned to some form when fourth of ten over C&D 33 days ago but now steps back up in grade. |

4th 1 (1) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Landed a 6f novice here just under a year ago; held in three starts since beaten a short head at Carlisle (7f, soft) in May, but now 3lb lower and drops in a Class 6 for the first time; shortlisted. |
11/2 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
9th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
6f AW win last summer; began this campaign with good handicap runs at Haydock (6f, good to firm) and over C&D (soft); two lesser efforts have followed but he will be dangerous if back to the C&D form. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |

Won twice at Hamilton in September (6f, good to soft and soft); not so good twice since and likely vulnerable at this level. |
16/1 |
|
8 (8) |
20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Back to 6f when winning successive Hamilton handicaps in September (good to soft/soft) and it was a belated return to 5f when below par last time; however, this is a tougher grade than she's accustomed to. |
8/1 |
|
8th 9 (8) |
29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Benefited from the return to 6f of late, winning both starts here (good to soft and soft); flying high but has a penalty to carry in a better race back over 5f for the first time since her debut; still not ruled out. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |

No threat to the easy winner but his staying-on second at Carlisle three weeks ago was still a fair effort; conditions shouldn't be an issue but others appeal more for win purposes. |

2nd 9 (7) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Placed twice off higher marks this spring, latterly when third over nearly 7f here (good) in May; safely held twice since, though, (7f/1m) and reverts to sprinting with a bit to prove. |
33/1 |

7th 9 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Soundly beaten at Redcar (7f, good) a fortnight ago, so his losing run continues, but he was in good heart previously and kept on well when making the frame at Ayr (7f, good to firm) and Carlisle (7f, good); this first crack at 1m is worth a go and he's not ruled out each-way. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Conditions should be ideal for this course regular and although his 2026 record is unconvincing, he has dropped 14lb as a result; usual cheekpieces back on after one run in a visor; each-way shout. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
6f AW winner for William Haggas last summer; ran well for second (short head behind Station X and now 5lb better off) on her stable debut here last November; slow start to this campaign but there was much more to take from her latest Ayr fifth (behind Lord Bertie and Station X); unexposed on testing ground and she's one to consider. |

Runner-up in two 6f nurseries on heavy/soft ground last autumn; down the field on both outings this year and has something to prove, but those were on good going and maybe today's testing conditions will trigger a revival. |
