9th 2 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Front-runner who has won four times since blinkers have been added and latest was over 7f here (good) in May; well held in his last two runs (1m2f/1m) but he's now only 2lb higher than for his last win and is well drawn back at this trip; not ruled out. |
12/1 |

10th 2 (16) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner who has won four times since blinkers were added (7f/1m), most recently over 7f at Chester last month off 3lb lower; didn't get home there over 1m2f (good to soft) 11 days ago but should be happier back at this trip. |
20/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Made his first appearance here a winning one when landing 7f handicap (good) a fortnight ago; always handy from a low draw that day and his stamina for this trip is in question; still not ruled out. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time winner at sprint trips; runner-up over 1m at Chelmsford in January and 1m2f hasn't suited on her last two starts; her reduced mark is a plus and cheekpieces are added, but others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
11th 4 (7) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Three-time winner at sprint trips; stays further but stamina seemed to run out late when tackling 1m2f for the first time at Chelmsford 19 days ago. |
12/1 |
|
4th 8 |
8th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Three-time winner at sprint trips but it was over 1m when a staying-on second here last time; was no match for the winner but that effort offers hope for her staying this far. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained second win of 2026 at Leicester (1m) in May and has continued in good form, refitted in cheekpieces when fourth of seven at Musselburgh (1m) 16 days ago; that form has been franked so he can go well again. |
11/2 |

4th 1 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Gained his second win of 2026 at Leicester (1m) in May and posted a good third of 12 in 1m Carlisle handicap a week ago; this course winner rates a player off an unchanged mark. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 1 (11) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just 1lb higher than for this season's two wins, the latest a last-gasp success at Leicester last month (1m, good to firm); unplaced twice since; others appeal more. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Rated much higher when joining this yard in autumn 2024; remained consistent enough off a sliding mark during the winter but needs more if he's to snap the losing run. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins when trained by Hugo Palmer; now finding it difficult to get his head in front and has dropped to a career-low mark; may get in the firing line but doesn't appeal for win purposes. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (9) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
His last win was in September 2024 but that was off 19lb higher at Chester, and he ran well to finish third at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; still lightly raced on turf and has possibilities if he handles the conditions back in this sphere (best form has been on soft ground). |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded the 18th win of his long career when leading late over C&D in February (for Myla Coppins); ran well behind a thriving rival at Lingfield next time but he failed to fire over C&D a fortnight ago (finished behind Coloane); he has bounced back from quiet runs before so can't be ruled out. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
18th success of his long career when getting the better of Antiquity (winner since and runs in the 6.00) over C&D last month; bumped into an in-form opponent at Lingfield two weeks ago (7f; blinkered first time); another 2lb rise is not ideal but he is likely to give his running. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of enthusiasm and ran on well to beat a subsequent winner (Age Of Time third) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) three weeks ago, his 18th success; a 2lb rise not excessive but late in the day to be giving blinkers a go (has run well in new headgear before). |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Scored over hurdles at Stratford last May but below par on the AW over the winter, beating just one home in 1m2f handicap at Chelmsford in February; more is required after a break in a change of headgear. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D scorer but she's not proving the easiest to predict of late, tried in a change of headgear when only sixth of eight in 1m handicap here last month; others are preferred. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three of her wins on the Flat have been over 1m2f; failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in November but she ran a better race when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 26 days ago; cheekpieces replace the visor but this is the shortest trip she has encountered since July 2023. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a 7f handicap at Southwell on his second run back with Dean Ivory; unable to back it up in a Class 5 a fortnight later; fully effective over C&D but others appear to hold stronger claims. |
12/1 |
|
6th 5 (8) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Beat only one rival home at Chelmsford (1m, AW) on his first start since returning to this yard following a 161-day break, but he stepped forward from that when winning over this C&D 15 days ago; up in grade following a 3lb rise. |
7/1 |
|
1st 3 (11) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Back with former yard after five months off but beat just one in 1m Chelmsford handicap three weeks ago; a fair 7f winner at his best, so he can't be totally dismissed with that run under his belt. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
0-7 in handicaps since winning a Chelmsford maiden (7f, Polytrack) for Alice Haynes a year ago, but his fourth of ten over C&D on penultimate start offers some hope; visor now given a go. |
11/2 |
|
8th 6 (2) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Struggled in handicaps for Alice Haynes after winning a maiden here over 7f last January but he ran a solid race at Wolverhampton (7f; reported to have lost a shoe) on his stable debut 19 days ago, while leaving the impression that he's worth another go over this trip; contender. |
7/4 |
|
2 (11) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Narrowly off the mark on his second start in a Chelmsford maiden (7f, AW) in January, but has regressed in three handicaps since; cheekpieces made no difference on turf debut at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) last month (gelded since); best to look elsewhere. |
