31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Usually races prominently; won four of his six starts for new yard this year, including when returned to turf for eight-runner race at Musselburgh (2m, good) in April; has excuses for the two defeats, on latest occasion fifth of 17 in the 2m2f Chester Plate despite the work he had to do to front-run from wide draw; one to note. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Seen mostly over jumps in his Irish days; getting hampered at the start prevented his usual prominent ride on penultimate outing but he's otherwise swept all before him for new yard this year, including when returned to turf for eight-runner race at Musselburgh (2m, good) 12 days ago; has 3lb penalty (the same as he's due to go up anyway) but wide draw is the chief worry. |

9st 2lb |
Seen mostly over jumps in his Irish days; 3-3 on AW (1m6f/2m) last month upon joining this stable, before a lesser show three weeks ago when getting hampered at the start prevented his usual tactics; not ruled out on return to turf. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Registered a first Flat win when scoring over C&D in January and it was a creditable effort when chasing home St Faz at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) six days ago; work to do if he's to turn the tables but still one of the more likely ones. |
6/1 |

2nd 6 (5) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Recorded his first Flat success when scoring at Southwell in January (1m6f); he has run to a similar level in defeat since and he should remain competitive. |

4-22 over hurdles but just 1-15 on the Flat, the win coming at Southwell (1m6f, Tapeta) in January; only 1lb higher, though, and should make his presence felt. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Scored twice (1m6f/2m) for Darryll Holland last August and made an encouraging start for his new yard when third on Lingfield AW in March; however, tailed off back on turf (which should have been okay) one month ago. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Scored twice (1m6f/2m) for Darryll Holland last August and made an encouraging start for his new yard when third to St Faz on Lingfield AW five weeks ago; the first of those wins was impressive over 1m6f on good to firm and he's one to consider despite today's 15lb higher mark. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023 but he's been in fair form on AW this spring including when fourth on Polytrack (2m) in his last two starts; should be in the mix again but he needs to find more to make a big impact; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023; expensive to follow in recent times but he arrives in form and this is a touch easier again off a career-low mark; can't be left out of calculations. |
4/1 |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Losing run dates back to July 2023; conditions are no problem for this veteran and he has been running respectably of late; others appeal more all the same. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Scored at Chelmsford (1m5f) for Roger Varian in January; not disgraced for his new yard with third of six in 1m6f Yarmouth handicap nine days ago, so he's one to consider. |
12/1 |

3rd 1 (4) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
The winner of one of his 11 starts for Roger Varian, namely a 13.3f handicap at Chelmsford in January; sold for 8,500gns last month; still to prove as good on turf as AW but that is perhaps circumstance, rather than a marked preference for artificial surfaces. |
7/1 |

8th 8 (10) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Looked on the up when gaining a breakthrough victory at Chelmsford (1m5f) in January; hasn't matched that form both runs since but he failed to last home when fifth in 2m Lingfield handicap last time; not out of things in a change of headgear over this shorter trip. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Still to add to his 7f maiden win for Charles Hills in October 2024 but he has been banging at the door this year, placed on his last four starts (1m2f-1m4f); goes into unknown territory in terms of stamina and he's by Blue Point so there has to be a question mark. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |

Hurdle winner in December but well short of that level over hurdles and in one Flat run this year; down in the weights but with a point to prove. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |

Opened his account in Doncaster juvenile hurdle (2m) in December; well below par subsequently though, back on the Flat when tenth at Doncaster 22 days ago; change of headgear now tried. |
25/1 |

10th 8 (11) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won over hurdles here (good to soft) in December but has disappointed since, including back on the Flat (2m, AW) last week; it remains to be seen whether this drop back in trip improves matters. |
