28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Course regular; his latest third (8.6f) was a remote one behind an easy winner but it was still a creditable effort; no sign of age denting his enthusiasm and he should make another bold bid. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Three wins here in the winter to take his course tally to 11 but he's rather lost the plot since and doesn't often go beyond 7f these days; needs a revival. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has gained last three wins on AW, including latest start; effective on turf but has never won away from Leicester in this sphere; something to prove back up in grade. |
10/1 |
|
1st 2 (9) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three 7f wins on AW elsewhere, most recently at Southwell in April; a quick return didn't pay off there next time and he was always behind when returned to turf at Leicester last month; has run well over C&D in the past, though, so he may be more himself this time. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Resumed winning ways in 7f Southwell handicap in April but he beat only two home back there eight days later; this C&D scorer needs to bounce back. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Came from the rear to gain his fourth success (all on the AW) when winning at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) two months ago; a 5lb rise still leaves him well treated on his previous form so can't be discounted in his bid to follow up. |

C&D winner off 8lb higher in December; chased home Split Elevens here last month but not quite so good back here four weeks ago; apprentice takes off a useful 5lb; each-way shout. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |

Soft-ground winner in Ireland; twice a runner-up on AW in July but her form has dipped on her last two starts; on a fair mark but others look more persuasive for the win. |
7/1 |

3rd 7 (1) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up twice on Tapeta at Southwell (7f/6f) last month and her defeat there on Thursday is probably best overlooked (fractious in stalls and slowly away) but she returns to turf on a fairly tough mark. |

4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has done most of his AW racing on Wolverhampton Tapeta but he's run his two best races on Kempton Polytrack (7f), going close in February and breaking his duck last month; back up 4lb; a likely contender on course debut. |
7/2 |

1st 10 (3) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Consistent maiden who's 3lb lower than when beaten a neck over C&D in February; continued in form since, the last twice for an inexperienced 7lb claimer, and is one to consider. |
5/1 |

6th 15 (9) |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Consistency wasn't his strong suit for his former yard and his recent stable debut was hardly chock full of promise; drops in grade but comes with risks attached. |
20/1 |

10th 9 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Made it tenth-time lucky when scoring over C&D for Joseph Parr in December, but held in all three starts since; makes his stable debut after six months off having changed hands for 4,400gns in February; watch market. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Still 8lb higher than when winning over C&D in September, but narrow defeats off similar marks to this in his last two outings suggest he is capable of playing a part. |
9/2 |

3 (9) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
A string of good runs at Brighton before collecting by 3l over C&D in a race that panned out to perfection; bled from the nose when disappointing at Brighton last time but he's 7lb higher than for his penultimate run and could have competition for the lead back on AW. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
5f winner here as a 3yo whose losing run is up to 14, but she has finished runner-up on the Kempton Polytrack (7f/1m) the last twice; up 1lb but still high on the list with a first-time visor replacing cheekpieces. |
4/1 |

2nd 6 (3) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Has to prove her stamina for 1m but she arrives on the back of a good second here last week (7f), headed late on and finishing clear of the third; runs off the same mark and commands plenty of respect. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Bettered underwhelming stable debut when rallying third in maiden handicap at Carlisle (nearly 7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; recent 3lb drop is helpful and this return to Tapeta should suit; shortlisted. |
7/1 |

3rd 2 (9) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Well treated on his best form for Seb Spencer but he's been out of sorts in his last four runs including when last of eight on stable debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month; overall record is now 0-10 and he needs a major revival. |

Won three times over this trip on the AW in the first half of last year and has mainly been performing with credit of late, as when beaten half a length over C&D in May; holds claims. |

4th 3 (1) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

He has finished second in two of his four starts since returned to Jane Chapple-Hyam; disappointing favourite at Wolverhampton 11 days ago, however, and stamina for this trip has to be taken on trust. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

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 |

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. |
