20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Two wins at Newcastle (1m, AW) this year, including on his latest start last month; 2lb out of the handicap today and he's 0-13 on turf, but has been placed a few times on grass and is not discounted. |

1st 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just 2-33 but both wins have come here, the latest over C&D last month; found to be lame when down the field two days later and 7f looked too sharp when third here three weeks ago; he's one to consider now back up in trip. |

3rd 7 (6) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Too strong for his rivals in a Class 6 over a mile here last month; reportedly finished lame when disappointing (13-8f) behind Golden Strike here four weeks ago; revised 3lb higher mark has now kicked in. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Six-time course winner, including twice from the front over C&D this winter; 4lb higher than for his last win and he's never defied a mark this lofty, but the promising Harry Vigors takes off 7lb and he may make a bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who scored over C&D last month but that was a narrow success and he's been vulnerable in both runs since; looks weighted near his best and others are more persuasive. |
12/1 |

3rd 5 (8) |

Two 1m wins here this winter but more to prove at this trip; 3.5l behind Flowstate here 19 days ago and others look better treated. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Well handicapped on pick of this year's AW form but finished well down the field on both starts last month (1m1f/7f) and is now 0-23 on turf. |
40/1 |

8th 6 (8) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Kept busy and largely in good form without winning on the AW this season; beat one back on turf in 1m1f Carlisle handicap two weeks ago though so has a bit to prove. |
25/1 |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Does most of his racing at Newcastle (AW) where he has registered all five wins; generally consistent this year but seems to have a difficult task back on turf, being 8lb higher than last attempt. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has recorded the majority of his wins on Newcastle AW; below par over C&D ten days ago, failing to build on his Hamilton effort; still hasn't scored on turf since 2022. |
16/1 |

7th 6 (9) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Handy sort who is 1-1 here and ran well returned to turf when beaten a short head and a neck into third of eight at Hamilton (1m, good) a fortnight ago; ground faster than good probably not ideal, though. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a long losing run at Newcastle (7f) in February but below par both runs since, sixth in 8.5f handicap at Wolverhampton last time; has a rare run on turf now. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won a 5f AW event off 6lb lower in February and there was no disgrace in chasing home a Hamilton legend at that track (6f, good to firm) in returning blinkers (retained) nine days ago; he is another that cannot be discounted. |
13/2 |

2nd 3 (1) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Belatedly opened account at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February and has largely remained in good form since, albeit he was a shade disappointing when only sixth of ten at Ripon (6f, good; favourite) three weeks ago; can make his presence felt. |
7/2 |
|
6th 3 (8) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Made the breakthrough at Newcastle (5f) in February and fairly consistent since; couldn't master Yes I'm Mali over C&D (runner-up; 18-1) on penultimate start and boxed on from further back (fourth) at Beverley subsequently; a possible. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Out of the frame in eight completed starts but shaped as though worth a go over this far when fifth of 12 at Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta) last time; a couple of winners have come out of that race and he drops in grade; worth a second look. |
8/1 |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Unplaced in all eight starts; edging down the weights and now tries a new trip with headgear reinstated; not a solid option. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Southwell maiden (6f, AW) winner in late 2024 but she hasn't placed in five turf handicaps and latest fifth of 11 at Pontefract (6f, good; Invincible Ruby third) will need improving on; career-low mark, though. |
20/1 |

5th 5 (7) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Far from solid on her 7f-1m2f form for current stable but this drop back to 6f is an angle in with her; recorded sole success at trip, albeit in an ordinary AW maiden. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
