2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple winner down the years and gained his most recent success (narrowly, three starts ago) off current mark; subsequent dip in form is the negative. |
12/1 |

11th 1 (15) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Getting on but retains a lot of his old ability, is still consistent enough and has won over C&D before; rare off-day at Thirsk a fortnight ago, having beating a subsequent winner in a small field off 1lb lower previously; quite capable of bouncing back. |
12/1 |

6th 2 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Retains a large portion of his ability despite his advanced years and took advantage of a reduced mark at Cattterick (6f, good) ten days ago; only nudged up 1lb for that narrow success. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Beaten just over 2l when an encouraging seventh of 17 at Ascot (5f, good to firm) at the start of the month; both of last year's wins came at 6f on a sound surface so has conditions to suit and he's a candidate to step forward. |
7/2 |

7th 8 (6) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Effective at 5f but last summer's two wins came over 6f; not beaten far at Chelmsford (5f) when last seen in December; still has relatively low mileage. |

Not out of it on his best form but consistency isn't his strongest suit; up in class and others appeal more for win purposes. |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 3 |

His C&D win in April came off 5lb higher but little to celebrate since; needs the nine-week break to have revived his fortunes. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Three wins during his latest spell on AW; close second to Dark Thirty in this contest two years ago but needs to rebound, having been comfortably held returned to turf 17 days ago. |
33/1 |
|
14th 3 (12) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
2-4 at Doncaster; ended 2025 in rude health on the AW, winning handicaps at Southwell (6f), Wolverhampton and Lingfield (both 5f); his form has dipped slightly on his last two starts but it's not out of the question that this return to Doncaster will pique his interest. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Went close off this mark over C&D in November; good run at Kempton on his penultimate start and he will find this more manageable than the hot Kempton handicap he contested on Friday; respected. |
6/1 |
|
9th 8 (5) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Two-time C&D winner; has been competitive off this sort of mark in recent months, beaten two noses into third over C&D 24 days ago (blinkered first time); up in class but likely to give it another good go. |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Out of the frame on AW in sole outing this term; solid 2yo campaign on turf featured a soft-ground win in conditions race and two placed efforts at Listed level; return to this sphere is the angle with her. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who's proved inconsistent for this yard having missed six months; handicapper easing off now but he again didn't offer a huge amount back on turf last month. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (4) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent for his current stable but of interest on his best effort, notably a second of eight at Lingfield (6f, AW) in January when 5lb higher; non-runner at Pontefract Tuesday. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Her last two wins have come over C&D, the latest off this mark last June (good to firm); bumped into one at Leicester 16 days ago and it was a run that promised better; can't rule out. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Should be all the better for her Doncaster reappearance and she's back on the same mark as for her Windsor success (6f, good to firm) last June; however, all her turf wins have come there and at Salisbury and this is the first time she's run on this track. |
9/2 |
|
6th 5 (1) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has gained all turf wins at Salisbury and Windsor but appears effective at Doncaster, having finished 2l third off 4lb higher in this race on reappearance last year; each-way shout. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Opened his AW account in Kempton contest (6f) in December; has remained in form since, without necessarily building on that success; likely needs to raise his game in this field. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 3 (2) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Made his AW breakthrough when scoring over C&D in December; matched that form when second over C&D in January and big player with Billy Loughnane taking over in the saddle for the first time. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Made his AW breakthrough when scoring over C&D near the start of last month and it was a creditable effort when close fifth of 12 at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; solid claims from the same mark. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Done the bulk of his winning on AW (6-26), but one of his two turf wins came over C&D (from 8lb lower) in August 2024; in fine fettle, with form figures of 322, since returning to turf, beaten just over 2l by Mumayaz at Leicester (6f, good to firm) latest; should give his best. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Multiple wins on AW and turf; has done well for this yard and his 6f turf form in 2025 certainly bears scrutiny; respectable efforts back on grass of late and while not at full strength in either, he'll be suited by this stiffer test at 6f providing there's a good pace; form chance. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 4 (10) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No win on turf since September 2024 but he ran well for third at Thirsk (6f, good) two weeks ago, form that has been boosted by the winner and second running well in big fields since; one to be interested in off the same mark. |

Winning start on turf as 2yo and later won on handicap debut on AW (both 5f); lightly raced and kept to AW since, some way below best at Southwell in December (first-time cheekpieces, retained); work to do back on grass. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Front-runner who won twice over 6f at Southwell last year when trained by Robert Cowell, the most recent coming in October off 2lb higher; visor worn on his final start for that yard is left off for this stable debut (bought for 9,500gns). |

4th 1 (5) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner whose three wins for David Simcock, including here, came over 7f; added two more victories over this trip round Southwell last autumn but not at best since and the first-time visor will need to help over tonight's easier 6f. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |

Consistent spell on Tapeta over the winter and continued the good work back on turf when close second of six at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; he's never won above a mark of 75, though. |
12/1 |

2nd 6 (3) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
C&D win last summer came off 18lb lower and he returns to turf 10lb higher than when last running on grass, thanks to a consistent spell on Tapeta; will need something close to a career-best to take this and he's not improving at his age. |
