3rd 3 (4) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six time winner who won three in a row in January/February and he ran another good race when third at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) last month; won on turf last summer but that was off a much lower mark and he needs to transfer his progress back to this sphere. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Thriving for his current yard and he completed a hat-trick in 1m2f Chelmsford handicap in February; up another 4lb but this C&D winner rates a player in his bid for a four-timer. |
9/2 |
|
1st 2 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Improver who has won four of his last nine starts and he made it 2-3 for current yard when scoring over C&D 13 days ago; remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher and he's a big player again in hat-trick bid. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ran his best race so far when second of nine in a Lingfield handicap on Saturday (1m2f; hooded for the first time); open to further progress after just six starts; high on the list. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Promising third on handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in November; didn't build on that at Southwell (7f) last month but he's still unexposed and has not been with James Owen for long; not ruled out with hood added back up in trip. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Wouldn't judge him too harshly on his latest effort (1m; Class 5) and his penultimate run didn't see him to best effect either; has shown promise on turf; not discounted. |
10/1 |
|
7th 8 (3) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Began 2026 with two good placed efforts over 1m2f at Lingfield; easy enough to strike a line through latest effort as he ended up poorly positioned in a race run at a stop-start tempo; drops in trip and steps up in class today; others appeal more. |
10/1 |
|
9th 8 (9) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
It's now 12 runs since his sole victory but he's recorded two good placed efforts over C&D since joining Laura Mongan, going down by only a head latterly; has to enter calculations. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Tailed off on his turf debut at Bath last month; his best AW form brings him into the reckoning but there are risks attached; new blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
12/1 |
|
10th 8 (14) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Regressive maiden (1m-1m4f) who's with his third yard already; has shown enough on the AW this year, however, to suggest he can play a part on today's turf debut, down another 3lb. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (4) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-7 for three different stables; ran well when third in a Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f) in December but he's not gone on from that and has been well held in both runs (1m2f/1m4f) for current yard; cheekpieces are now added and he needs to raise his game back at this trip. |

17th Feb 2026 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
11-race maiden; one encouraging effort for new yard in December but she hasn't built on it twice since (blinkered latest); needs more to come out on top. |
12/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
First crack at middle distances when respectable fourth over C&D last month but she was beaten 17l at Kempton (1m3f) two weeks later; has something to prove again after that and she's now 0-10; first-time blinkers. |
16/1 |
|
2 (8) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Promising 2yo debut before highly tried at Royal Ascot last summer; not so good back from a six-month break and she was well beaten when last seen at Yarmouth in April; sold for 10,000gns the following month; betting to guide on stable debut. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Frequent slow starter who was the biggest price of his trainer's three runners when winning easily at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last Saturday, without the usual tongue-tie/cheekpieces, as today; had looked on the downgrade on the AW but happier on turf; leading claims back up 6lb. |
4/5 |

1st 13 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Five turf wins were all secured in a tongue-tie, with additional cheekpeices on last three occasions; has never won on AW and after latest campaign on that surface he now returns to grass with good handicapping case to be made; no headgear looks a negative, though. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (3) |
2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Eyecatching second at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) on his penultimate run, but he's a frequent slow starter who was always in rear at Lingfield last Saturday; needs to bounce back again after that and he's now 0-18 on AW. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Bumper and four-time Flat (1m2f/1m4f) winner who is ideally suited by fast ground; respectable fourth on AW when last seen in February and he's on a workable mark back over hurdles; needs close look for in-form yard. |
7/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Out of the frame in all four starts since returned to the AW, but his fifth of ten over 1m2f here in December suggested that all may not be lost; now 6lb lower than for that effort and 8lb lower than when last successful; interesting. |
11/1 |
|
7th 2 (1) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Now 6lb lower than for his two turf wins last May, but he's finished down the field in last six starts and last three have been at this track (1m2f/1m4f); others preferred. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Has lacked consistency for current stable but is only 1lb higher than when recording an account-opening success on AW in December; fighting chance provided he's back in similar form. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13th time lucky when winning a 9.4f handicap at Wolverhampton in December; not so good twice in January and now returns from an 11-week break; Oisin Murphy booked so a better showing would seem likely. |

8th 4 (6) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13th time lucky when justifying support at Wolverhampton (9.4f, Tapeta) last month; didn't fire back at that track three weeks ago but his penultimate form has worked out well and he's a player if he can get back near that level. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Got off the mark at Kempton (1m4f) last May but he's been regressive since and was tailed off over C&D last time; record is now 1-12 and he needs a big turnaround. |

6th 8 (5) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
