2nd 8 (3) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not very consistent, but has won nine races, eight on the AW; twice well held since winning a handicap at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in June, but more than capable of playing a part if on a going day. |
7/1 |
|
9th 12 (6) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Won over Newcastle's 6f in June (5lb lower) but he's very hit and miss and pulled hard when down the field at Southwell (stays 7f). |
25/1 |

9th 10 (3) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Won Kempton classified (7f, Polytrack) in March and, after five unplaced runs, he returned to form with convincing handicap win at 20-1 at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) last week; bang there if backing up that latest effort. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Sole win (23 races) was an AW maiden in November 2024; way down the weights these days and although he was runner-up twice on AW (7f) in March and showed something here (5f) on penultimate start, others have to be higher up the list. |
10/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has the same strike-rate (1-22) as Horus and his win was in November 2024; has been up and down this year but he was runner-up twice on AW (7f) in March and he didn't get the best of runs when a respectable sixth at Windsor (5f) last time; has another switch of headgear and he could be dangerous back up in trip. |
5/1 |
|
6th 13 (6) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
AW maiden winner as 2yo but 0-20 otherwise; went handicapping off a high mark and his 3yo season was a write-off; fortunes have turned somewhat off basement marks this term but he's more persuasive on AW. |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
1lb out of the weights, but still off the same mark as when beaten a neck over C&D in April; losing run is up to 18, though, so others make greater appeal. |
14/1 |
|
4th 12 (10) |
14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Not well drawn for one who likes to race prominently and last two runs have been underwhelming; others safer. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Regressive and inconsistent for this yard, and is tried in a first-time visor instead of cheekpieces tonight; needs to bounce back from a couple of ordinary efforts on turf. |
12/1 |
|
8th 12 (8) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
0-10 for this yard but she went close at Southwell (6f, AW) on her penultimate start; 14l defeat at Yarmouth last time tempers confidence, however. |
12/1 |
|
7th 6 (5) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won three nurseries for George Scott; not the same filly now but handicapped accordingly and went close at Southwell (6f, AW) 17 days ago. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Hard to win with but last success was over C&D and he was a rallying third here last time in a classified race; entitled to be in the mix. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (8) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Narrow winner of C&D (good to firm) handicap in September and went close in this grade here (7f, good) in June; safely held on AW at Lingfield since but was poorly positioned on outside of the field there and can do better here. |
8/1 |
|
7th 5 (5) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just three wins from 64 starts but he returned after a short break with a near-miss in a classified at Brighton (7f, good) last month; has possibilities back up in trip and his first two wins came on AW at Lingfield. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has not finished closer than fifth in her eight starts, including two handicaps and two classified events for current yard; made some late headway in blinkers here (7f) last time but she needs improvement back up in trip. |
16/1 |
|
6th 8 (9) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-race maiden who has little in the way of solid form; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
20/1 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
9th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Six-race maiden who isn't particularly solid on form; chance largely depends on how well she responds to first-time headgear. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won 8.6f classified here in July and was second in that grade under a penalty at Lingfield (1m) a few days later; evidently in good nick but has a bit more on his plate in this handicap and is not sure to be suited by the drop back in trip. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Went close at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Chepstow (1m) before getting off the mark (13th attempt) in a classified event at Wolverhampton last Tuesday; pulled 5l clear with his main market rival in that race and he hit a personal best with that brave success; key player. |
13/8 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-12 but he hit the frame twice in similar races over C&D in March; better form when beaten a neck into second at Chepstow (1m, soft) last month; set to go well once again. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Was back off her last winning mark when beaten under a length into third of ten at Lingfield (7f, AW) this month, but both wins have come there whereas she has finished unplaced in all five starts on turf; others stronger. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 7 (10) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Both wins have come over C&D and is back off the same mark as for her successful reappearance here in January; out of her depth last time, but one to be interested in back at this level. |
20/1 |
|
9th 11 (11) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Dual C&D winner for Isobelle Chalmers, latterly in 0-55 company last winter; found 6f an inadequate test after a slow start here last time but goes back up in class today and is 5lb out of the weights. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Poor form so far, beating only one home switched to handicap company on last three starts; first-time blinkers join last time's newly fitted tongue-tie. |
66/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Modest form so far, failing to beat a rival in two handicaps, at 6f and 1m; needs so much more for the fitting of a tongue-tie. |
100/1 |

12th 11 (2) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Big prices and not yet involved in just four starts, most recently on handicap debut over 6f on turf last July; lots to find back over 1m. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-12; beaten only 2l when fifth of 11 here over 7f in a classified event in February but he's not backed that up in two starts since; well held in five starts on turf and others are preferred. |
25/1 |
|
7th 6 (10) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-race maiden but he was beaten only 2l at Lingfield (1m, AW) in January and again there over 7f in February (classified events); his latest effort is worth forgiving (wide trip) but he has struggled in four starts on turf. |
16/1 |
|
11th 4 (10) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 5yo with a patchy record, although he was beaten only 2l when fifth in a similar race at Lingfield under Jack Dace last time; each-way shout with a repeat of that form. |
