7th 1 (7) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-time winner, the latest coming at Bath (1m, good) in April off a 2lb lower mark; had an excuse when below his best at Thirsk and bounced back to form when third of seven behind Jack Sparowe at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) 24 days ago; could go well. |

3rd 1 (8) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk last time but he can be given a pass as he was tight for room at a crucial stage; Billy Loughnane back on board today and his record for him reads 4111; one to take seriously. |
4/1 |

8th 2 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his Wolverhampton win on Boxing Day; added further wins at Wolverhampton (twice) and Bath (1m, good) since; similar form when fourth at Nottingham two weeks ago (1m2f, good); shouldn't be far away if the ground is deemed suitable (untried on faster than good). |

30th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two of his three wins have come here (9.5f/7f), the latest in March; ran with credit when fourth of ten at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) last time and he makes the shortlist. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (8) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Turf and dual Tapeta winner who justified favouritism with a narrow success at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form but he flopped at Bath (1m, firm) last time and needs to bounce back after that heavy defeat. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Course winner (1m2f, good to soft) last September and he has made good progress since, adding two AW successes (9.4f/7f) to his tally; close third over C&D last month (good ground) but not in the same form at Kempton three weeks ago; can't ignore if as effective on today's faster ground. |

Had a prolonged consistent spell until showing a dip in his form this spring/summer; well treated if getting back to his peak but others are preferred on recent evidence. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Back to winning ways with a front-running C&D success 23 days ago (visored first time); up 2lb but should give it another good go. |
5/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two soft-ground turf wins, including one for this yard, but he acts on better ground and made the most of a good draw when close third of 15 at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Token Love seventh) in cheekpieces three weeks ago; that is just about the best recent form on offer and he's nicely berthed again; visor goes on and he's respected. |
5/2 |

3rd 10 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
First win was on AW but last two have come on turf (8.3f/1m2f, soft); had some close calls on Tapeta during the winter and he was a creditable fourth in big field at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) 11 days ago; could be in the mix again but he wouldn't want the ground to dry out. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Both wins came over C&D in the winter; hasn't been in the same form since returning on turf last month but 2lb lower than her last winning mark so cannot dismiss. |

7th 7 (3) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |

Won twice on AW off higher marks over the winter; she has more to prove on turf but a big run wouldn't be a huge surprise. |

5th 4 (4) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice over 9.4f on the AW during the winter; probably okay on turf (0-4) but last two runs were heavy defeats and she's been off since March. |

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). |

11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Regressive gelding who's lacked consistency of late, including in two forms of headgear; having a first crack at beyond 1m4f and needs to improve for the stiffer test. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

15-race maiden who has been out of sorts over hurdles and on the Flat this year; hasn't been with Tony Carroll for long but he was beaten 8l in a classified event at Brighton (1m2f) last week and others are preferred; stablemate of Masqool. |

0-14 under rules and has been out of sorts over hurdles and on the Flat this year for Joe Ponting; makes his debut for shrewd yard but hard to make a case for. |
