30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Had a good year on the Flat and over hurdles, and ran well back from a break to finish second to Personal Best at Sandown; however, he failed to back that up in a big way when tailed off at Kempton; goes on all ground. |

10th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Had a productive year over hurdles and on the Flat, last time returning from a break and boxing on for second at Sandown (1m6f); he was bang there over C&D the time before; solid chance. |
9/1 |

2nd 3 (4) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

In good form over hurdles and on the Flat earlier this year, last time going close in a 2m AW handicap off 1lb lower; if in the same form after his break then should be involved. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Eventually drew clear from two rivals at Yarmouth (1m6f, good to firm) last week, having taken a while to respond to Billy Loughnane's urgings; previously effective over 1m4f and, even with 4lb penalty, remains well treated on peak form. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Eleven wins include one over C&D (soft; equally effective on good to firm) on yard debut in June; back up 6lb but has won off slightly higher marks on the AW and his latest Sandown third, where he kept persevering, suggests he should be on the premises again. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Career win number 11 when coming clear at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) on his debut for Tony Carroll; effective on faster ground and a 6lb rise might not stop him if he's turned a corner. |
3/1 |
|
1st 8 (2) |
12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Mainly seen on the AW these days, but he did win three times on turf as a 3yo; interesting to see how he fares in the market on debut for Tony Carroll (same owner). |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
On a long losing sequence but returned to some form when back from a break and finishing a 12l third of five over C&D 12 days ago, ridden by Rian Corcoran; respected off 4lb lower. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Without a win since 2023 and was out of form when last seen over hurdles in the autumn; this year's Flat form has been fairly respectable but he's on the downgrade and makes only limited appeal back in this sphere. |
14/1 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023 but he's been in fair form on AW this spring including when fourth on Polytrack (2m) in his last two starts; should be in the mix again but he needs to find more to make a big impact; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Exposed six-time winner who can front run; 2lb beneath the mark he defied at Newbury last summer (1m5f, good to firm; effective on good to soft) and he hasn't been running badly of late. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Latest of his six wins was in clearcut style in this race last year (good to firm) off 1lb higher, making all; running creditably back on turf this season and looks set for a bold show, but all of today's rivals are either in good form too and/or far less exposed. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His six wins include two over C&D; no match for No More Bolero when second here (2m1f, good to firm) in April, although he is 5lb better off with that rival; fourth of 12 at Ascot (2m, good) four weeks ago and holds place claims. |

27th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Has finished runner-up on the Flat and over hurdles but has been struggling under both codes since returning from more than three months off; the new cheekpieces will need to make a difference. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
14-race maiden; went close on the Flat at Kempton (1m3f, AW) last July, but he's struggled under both codes in four subsequent runs; now makes his handicap hurdle debut but he needs improvement back in this sphere. |
10/1 |

6th 8 (2) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |

13-race maiden who was well beaten in two 1m4f handicaps before another disappointing run back over hurdles last month; has placed form on AW but a bit to prove now. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Tailed off at Southwell last time which was too bad to be true as does have form there; he's won twice here and ran well over C&D in December behind one who scored impressively last week; considered under Oisin Murphy. |
11/4 |

29th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

Won at Southwell (2m4f, good) in November and also successful on AW in January; unseated early when an 8-1 chance for his return to hurdling at Statford (Supreme Yeats runner-up in that race). |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper/AW handicap winner; second of 13 here (1m2f, good to firm) in May under Georgia King and has since twice made the frame under the same rider, the latest when third of seven at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) last month; still unexposed on turf and respected back down in grade. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Bumper and 1m4f AW handicap winner; only three runs on Flat turf, the latest when second of 13 at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May in first-time cheekpieces, which have been kept since; not disgraced when Georgia King was on again back on AW latest outing; needs a second look. |
