10th 12 (4) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Strong finish from rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 3lb higher and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his four efforts this season a long way behind him, however. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Strong finish from the rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 1lb higher than today and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his three efforts this season a long way behind him, latest when not faring nearly so well with the draw back in Chester Plate, and others have more pressing claims. |
25/1 |

14th 12 (16) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Strong finish from the rear secured this prize last year (good ground) off 1lb lower than today, but also from stall 4 compared to today's stall 16; also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his two efforts this season (1m4f, good) a long way behind him but this may be a much more favourable scenario if the draw does not scupper him. |

2nd 2 (5) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Largely progressive sort in 2025 (when a two-time 1m2f winner) and she's continued on the up stepped up to 1m4f this season, not enjoying the smoothest of passages when fourth of 15 at Chester 13 days ago; a player off an unchanged mark. |
5/2 |
|
4th 6 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Consistent filly who won twice over 1m2f last summer and posted career-best form when close second on last month's reappearance at Thirsk (1m4f, good; clear third has won since); well drawn and Toby Moore looks excellent value for his 7lb claim against other apprentices; good chance. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 (11) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
A dual 1m2f scorer in 2025 and she signed off with an excellent second in 1m4f Catterick handicap in October; yard continues to go very well so she's a likely player returning off the same mark here. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Last won in August 2024; placed in three of eight starts last term and it was a hot race in which she was well beaten at York (40-1) on 2026 return; 15lb below peak mark but others seem to be banging on the door more loudly. |
40/1 |
|
11th 14 (13) |
13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Twice runner-up over 2m from five visits here, plus fourth of 20 in this race in 2024; ran creditably over 1m4f on 2025 return and is 11lb lower for this reappearance, but others seem to be banging on the door more loudly. |

3rd 3 (5) |
28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
First and second in two visits here (1m6f, soft/good to soft); patchy form so far this year and ideally would prefer further, but she has dropped 5lb lower than when last successful; respected. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Multiple Flat wins at 1m-1m4f, including on heavy; unable to make a significant impact on the Flat last autumn but he's run with credit over hurdles in recent months and is well treated back on the level (6lb below his last winning mark); considered. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
9th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Multiple Flat wins at 1m-1m4f, including on heavy; switched to hurdling late in the day but he's taken surprisingly well to this game, running two good races at Leicester (extended 1m7f; soft and heavy), and may well improve for this easier stamina test now handicapping; thereabouts. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 11 |
20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
8-46 on the Flat; left it rather late in the day to launch his hurdling career but went down fighting over C&D (soft) just after Christmas and has a good chance if in similar form again. |

3rd 1 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
12st 5lb |
Finished strongly to force a dead heat with Ryebridge over C&D (good to soft) on his handicap hurdle debut 13 days ago; wore cheekpieces on that occasion but they are now replaced by the visor he wore regularly during his Flat career; retains handicapping scope on his useful form in that sphere. |

1st 1 |
22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has made the frame in two races at Wetherby (2m) since switched to this code; opening hurdles mark is very attractive judged on best Flat form; possibilities. |
100/30 |

5th 1 (2) |
28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
3lb lower than when winning at York (1m2f, soft) a year ago and very likely to have his optimum conditions, but a leap of faith is required following two poor efforts since returning from 308 days off last month. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Handicapper quick to ease off this spring and he turned in his best effort for this yard when fourth behind Sisterandbrother at Doncaster last weekend; inclined to over-race back in cheekpieces there and has to prove he can do it on the AW. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last April but he's 0-9 since and has been well held in four runs this year; now 10lb lower than for his win but he weakened quickly at Nottingham three weeks ago and others are preferred; cheekpieces (tried once last year) are reapplied. |

Useful Flat winner in Germany earlier in career and twice runner-up over hurdles during the past year, but now 0-15 since arriving in Britain and modest in two starts back on the Flat last month. |

19th May 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |

Trainer not saddled a Flat winner in around six years; this maiden has tumbled down the handicap since joining from Andre Fabre and needs to improve on this spring's turf efforts. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |

7th 7 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Displayed early promise on the Flat in France but hasn't shown much since coming to Britain, including back on the Flat at Catterick (1m4f) 17 days ago; up markedly in trip now with a tongue-tie added. |
