23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Has made excellent progress on AW this year and transferred that ability to turf with creditable third at Chester (7.5f, good) last time; needs additional improvement to add to her tally, however. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 12 (6) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Progressive on AW; has a record of 4-6 this year and 2-2 since upped to 7f, most recently scoring at Southwell; the question is whether she can transfer the excellent work to this new scenario (turf debut). |

4th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Bang in form on the AW before going off too fast when made favourite for his turf debut in a 6f handicap at Ripon; remains of interest and looks sharp enough for 5f; gelded since. |
3/1 |
|
8th 5 (6) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough at Wolverhampton (6f, maiden; 4-1) in February; has bettered that since (on RPRs) with narrow defeats at Lingfield and Newcastle; 2lb higher again, but possible he can stake a claim if proving as effective on turf (debut). |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (8) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark in a Wolverhampton maiden (6f, Tapeta) last month, but probably put up an even better effort when beaten a head on handicap debut at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) last Saturday; already due another 2lb rise for that and much respected. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |

Prominent racer; made all to win over 6f in fine style in January; similar form when third over 6f here four weeks ago; one to consider off the same mark. |
5/1 |

3rd 6 (3) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Lived up to his name and proved hard to steer from a wide draw here two weeks ago, but he'd previously bolted up over C&D with Mister Moet well held in second and Henriette Ronner last; 8lb higher today but he'll be dangerous if racing more amenably than last time. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Dual Tapeta winner for new yard this year but she's not easy to predict and her form has slumped in last two starts; has bit to prove again and she's not finished closer than fifth in six turf runs. |
8/1 |
|
9th 3 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

The winner of two of her five starts for her new stable, both over 6f at Wolverhampton; found out by the drop to 5f at Bath three weeks ago; could resume her progress back at 6f. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-8 but running well lately, finishing runner-up at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) last month and going down by a neck at Bath (1m, firm) 13 days later; races off the same mark and high on list. |
8/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A maiden after seven starts but encountered some traffic before running on well to snatch second (no threat to winner) at Lingfield (1m, AW) a fortnight ago and remains unexposed over this trip; one to consider. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 2 (12) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Maiden who's done better since fitted with a hood round here; this a bit easier, dropped another 2lb back from a short break, but has stamina to prove upped from 6f (liable to be dropped in again from the outside stall). |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
One win from 16 starts, over 6f on Kempton AW last August; in the frame on sand six times since but she hardly shifts in the weights; probably handles turf but needs a bit more for the return to this surface if she's to get her head in front again. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (1) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Her only win from 15 attempts came over this C&D and that was her sole appearance at Kempton; not beaten far off this mark in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f) 16 days ago; each-way shout once more. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Scored at Kempton (6f) last August and she continues in good form, caught wide when sixth in 6f Lingfield handicap 16 days ago; she can make her presence felt eased 1lb. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made it second-time lucky in handicaps when scoring at Kempton (6f, AW) in March but he couldn't make an impact at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago; still lightly raced but he needs to resume his progress to defy this mark. |
7/1 |
|
8th 1 (10) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prevailed narrowly in similar event at Kempton (6f, AW) with reappearance under his belt, getting off the mark at the fifth attempt; may improve further, provided he's as effective back on turf; respected. |

1st 2 (1) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Advanced his RPR with each run last season and appeared to perform below market expectations on handicap debut at Lingfield (6f; first-time tongue-tie) one month ago; that was after a break (and a gelding operation) and perhaps this track will suit better. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |

Has won two of his last four races, both here over 6f and 5f; as with stablemate Mighty Vega, he could be vulnerable under a penalty in this higher grade. |

1st 5 (4) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |

Steadily run race at the trip didn't play to his strengths when a rallying second of six at Newcastle two weeks ago; could again be found wanting for pace at this sharper track. |

2nd 5 (5) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Exposed gelding who's done most racing over 6f; found a weak Lingfield handicap when winning off 2lb lower last month before finishing well held at the same course. |

9th 4 (4) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Got off the mark (6f; first-time blinkers) on the last of her six starts for William Haggas, but she was well held off her revised mark on stable debut 17 days ago and will need a major bounce back to be in with a chance here. |
14/1 |
|
4th 6 (2) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Got off the mark on the last of her six starts for William Haggas, winning a Newcastle handicap comfortably 11 days ago (6f, Tapeta; first-time blinkers); changed hands for 15,000gns since then and has risen 8lb; will need another step up to defy that. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
A few costly defeats to date, twice hanging left on Tapeta last year; the money came again on his handicap debut a fortnight ago, having undergone wind surgery, and he's evidently felt capable of better; drops from 6f under 7lb claimer Oliver Hoodless (1-7). |
12/1 |
|
10th 7 (2) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

Gelded prior to showing no improvement when last seen but has had another physical tweak, namely wind surgery, since and now switches to handicap level; may well take a step forward; interesting. |
