1st 6 (1) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Sometimes hangs left but is moving in the right direction and comfortably justified favouritism over C&D in December, recording a first win since joining shrewd current connections; good second on trials day at Newcastle (kept to 2m) since; may improve further at this trip; respected. |

2nd 7 (6) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Had been running well in defeat before outclassing his five rivals in a Class 4 at Wolverhampton (2m); 5lb higher this time in a stronger contest but looks a good bet to give his running. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
A poor show last May prompted a second wind operation and it was a solid campaign otherwise; never better than when second this February in 2m AW handicaps at Wolverhampton and Lingfield, but peak turf form isn't far behind it and he'll probably be on the premises. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Developed into a useful handicapper on the Flat for Hugo Palmer last year; having rejoined Olly Murphy, he continued the good work when second on 2m Wolverhampton reappearance three weeks ago, with reopposing pair Enemy and Brasil Power narrowly behind in third/fourth; likely to go well again. |
11/4 |

2nd 1 (6) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Developed into a useful handicapper, including on AW, last year for Hugo Palmer; close third in the Mallard at Doncaster on final outing; however, needs a career-best performance to defy current mark on first run since rejoining Olly Murphy. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Durable veteran who won twice on the AW early this year; however, he was soundly beaten at Newcastle on Good Friday and faces some unexposed rivals on his return to turf. |
25/1 |

10th 3 (5) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Snapped a losing sequence at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) in January before close third at Wolverhampton (2m), and returned to winning ways at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) latest; this 9yo is in a more competitive race today but there remains mileage in his mark judged on his old form; might not be far away. |
14/1 |
|
1st 4 (1) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Still very useful at the age of nine, getting his head back in front at Southwell (1m4f) on New Year's Day; split reopposing pair Roaring Legend and Brasil Power when creditable third of six over 2m at Wolverhampton three weeks ago but he has yet to win over this trip. |

3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Moving up to 1m4f worked well in December and comparable form at 1m6f/2m since, including another win three starts back; he's come up a bit short in warmer races this year, though, including behind Align The Stars at Kempton, and none of his turf form (admittedly at up to 1m2f) is close to this mark. |
25/1 |
|
10th 6 (6) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won three times in December (1m/1m4f) and continued in good form, getting back on the scoresheet in a five-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last month; didn't run badly over 2m at Kempton last Saturday; drops back in trip here and may find today's company to be too competitive. |
40/1 |

6th 2 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Basically progressive in a busy winter AW campaign and probably stays 2m, although the last three wins were over 1m4f (twice) and 1m6f (latest start); raised another 3lb but needs respect. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW which has dominated his career; best turf ratings were on last two outings but his turf form still needs improvement. |
6/1 |
|
6th 2 (8) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Something amiss on sole start here (2024); very busy since and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW (which has dominated career) and his turf form needs improvement. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 32y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Prominent racer who posted four wins in the second half of last year, including a C&D defeat of Charging Thunder on good; suffered a heavy defeat on AW last time but it was in a strong Good Friday race at Newcastle and Charging Thunder was once again behind him; a bold show seems likely in these much calmer waters back on turf. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Last five outings on AW, posting his most encouraging effort when second of 12 in a 2m Newcastle Good Friday handicap; nudged back up 2lb for that but he's still 3lb lower than when runner-up at Chester (2m, good to soft) last September; should go well. |
3/1 |

2nd 4 (10) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Won this in 2024 and he's dropping down the weights; this 8yo has shown the odd sign of spark over the last 12 months but his AW exploits this winter indicate it's best to look elsewhere. |
