27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improving type who completed a 6f AW hat-trick at Lingfield this winter; just his second run on turf when last of 17 in 5f Ascot handicap last month, but poorly drawn there and not out of things. |

17th 13 (1) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
His first three starts saw him well beaten over 7f but he has not looked back since dropped to 6f, winning seven times and placed on his other three runs; could only manage second at Chelmsford five weeks ago but the horse to beat him is now rated 17lb higher and that shouldn't be used as evidence he is in the handicapper's grip; more to prove back on turf and at a new trip but few arrive in better form. |

2nd 7 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Justified favouritism in Class 5 event at Kempton last time, taking record this year to 3-3 and overall strike-rate over 6f on AW to 7-9; he is 1-1 at Chelmsford; progressive sort who brings excellent stats and commands respect upped further in grade. |

14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Improved for the switch to AW this winter, winning at Chelmsford in November and adding C&D wins on her next two starts; met trouble in her bid for a four-timer here 16 days ago; needs a career best to defy this mark but it is not out of the question. |

5th 3 (1) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Turf win (6f, good to firm) last summer; improved for the switch to AW this winter, winning at Chelmsford (6f) in November and adding two C&D handicaps since; 5lb rise for latest win against fillies asks a stiffer question of her but foolish to discount in her current form. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Quite prolific on the AW but sole turf win was back in August 2024 and this is his first course start; below par since running well on sand in April and he has it to prove despite dropping in the weights. |
14/1 |

7th 1 (10) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins have come over 5f but he has won three times over 6f, including around here; held lately, but he drops to this level for the first time in over two years and is 4-9 in 0-60 handicaps or lower; interesting. |
7/1 |

11th 11 (7) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time AW winner who went close at Lingfield (5f) in March and ran well there over 6f in April, finishing third of five (beaten a length); never got involved there 28 days ago but he could go well returned to 6f. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Runner-up at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month but he's taken two backward steps since and losing run is now up to 26; down the list. |

9th 7 (8) |
12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up over 5f here 11 days ago, beaten just over 2l; not quite at the same level here (again 5f) on Thursday; return to 6f will suit though. |

10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Seven-time winner but the last of them was back in May 2025; didn't run badly in a smallf-field C&D handicap nine days ago but more will be required this time. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Acts on soft ground and is on a good mark; fair run on third run for new yard at Catterick last time and a possible with cheekpieces refitted (has won in them). |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Inconsistent for Joseph Parr, been well held in two runs back for this yard and there's again no sign of the cheekpieces worn for his only win; plenty of rain may help, though, and he's worth a market check. |
33/1 |
|
10th 1 (2) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
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. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Winning 2yo at 7f; had a rough ride in handicaps since and a better run on AW in March has been followed by some ordinary efforts; needs first-time cheekpieces to stir things up. |

6th 4 (3) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |

Close second at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March when 5lb higher; however, unable to replicate that form across his three starts since and he's won just one of his 17 outings. |

3rd 3 (6) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Two of his nine wins have been over C&D; hasn't been at his best this year but has dropped 7lb lower than his last winning mark and has made the frame on his last two starts; place claims. |
10/1 |
|
4th 8 (2) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Seven wins on the AW elsewhere; surrounded by subsequent winners when beaten half a length into second of five at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month and a 1lb rise still leaves him 6lb below his last winning mark; shortlisted. |
9/2 |
|
2 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins in 2025 include one over C&D; has shaped as if back in form on his last two starts, including when a front-running second of five at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; should go well. |
4/1 |
