18th Feb 2026 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Dominant display when making all in a 1m handicap at Chelmsford ten days ago but turned over off this mark at Lingfield on Saturday; dropping in trip shouldn't hurt and he's more appealing than many. |
9/4 |

14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No impact in his first handicap but he proved a different proposition at Chelmsford on Sunday (1m), making the running and surging clear in the final furlong; looks well in under a penalty and Jack Dace's claim helps offset it; leading contender. |

Well held in all five starts, latest when eighth of 13 on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack; 25-1) in November; still early days but she needs a transformation after a break. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won two in a row on AW in March and the first leg was over C&D; out of sorts in last three runs but the last two have been on turf; on a dangerous mark back in this sphere and one to keep an eye on for in-form yard. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February in his second handicap; backward steps in his three starts since, admittedly clipping heels early on latest (Madjid's race at Doncaster; 11-2) but doubts are creeping in. |
16/1 |

8th 6 (7) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Two turf starts last year; made the breakthrough in his second handicap when scoring at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in February; yet to build on that, however, and others arguably have more scope for improvement on this switch back to grass. |
6/1 |

5th 3 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for the step up to 9.4f when winning at Wolverhampton last month, his second handicap; only fourth behind two of tonight's rivals at Wolverhampton 16 days ago; needs to raise his game but that is possible. |

8th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won a C&D nursery in November and followed up at Wolverhampton (8.6f) two weeks later; didn't really fire in his next two runs, but he got back on track with a creditable second at Wolverhampton on Tuesday; that was his 12th start but he's been generally progressive on AW and he's in the mix. |

3rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won a 1m nursery at Chelmsford in November and followed up over C&D the following month; last two starts have been disappointing and he needs a full revival. |
5/1 |

5th 4 (2) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ended 2025 with a pair of handicap wins (around 1m) at Chelmsford and Wolverhampton but he beat only one (in a change of headgear) in 1m Chelmsford handicap last time; no surprise to see him bounce back with usual cheekpieces now refitted. |

Beat a total of five home in as many starts for George Boughey and has continued to struggle for this yard; would be a surprise winner. |

Struggled in maiden/novice events last summer and she's been well held in two Wolverhampton handicaps this winter; left George Boughey since her last run (still in same ownership) and needs plenty of improvement. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All four wins have been at 7f; admirably consistent and the winner got first run on him last time at Newmarket (good to firm); has finished first and second under the returning David Egan; every chance once more. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Likeable 7f specialist (all four wins at this trip); just edged out by Sierra Sands over C&D three weeks ago; holding his form really well and should be in the thick of things again. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 9 (1) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Made it 3-4 for the year when winning at Leicester (7f, good to firm) in April and bounced back from a lesser run on soft ground with another win at Sandown last month (7f, good; Kimbara second); had just half a length to spare but he had to wait for a clear run and all of his wins have been by narrow margins; could still be ahead of the handicapper up 3lb. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
0-7; promise in handicaps on the AW but below her best at Kempton (7f, AW) 45 days ago; now 2lb lower and drops back to 6f; others preferred. |
14/1 |
|
5th 3 (1) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Yet to finish better than fifth across her six starts but when filling that position at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) last time she shaped as though the return to 7f would help; 3lb lower today and not discounted. |
14/1 |
|
5th 7 (1) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
No progress for the switch to handicaps on her last two starts; edging down the weights and returning to 1m can help but others arrive with more pressing claims. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
A maiden after 14 starts but looked suited by step up to 1m2f when coming from the rear to go close in this grade at Lingfield (good to firm) three weeks ago and has each-way claims at least if in similar form. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
13-race maiden; placed in two AW handicaps in early part of this year (1m/9.4f) but beaten about 16l when fourth of five on turf return at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in June; must do better here. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Yet to score but she posted a good second in 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap and wasn't seen to best effect when sixth in 8.5f handicap there later in March; possibilities after a break. |
10/1 |
