3rd 1 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Fair Flat racer; yet to make a significant impact over hurdles but was given a lot to do before finishing well for third over C&D (good) on handicap debut three weeks ago, and his recent Flat run was perfectly respectable. |
5/2 |

3rd 5 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Scored at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in March and comes here on the back of a good hurdling third at Market Rasen 13 days ago; this C&D winner must enter calculations. |
6/1 |

3rd 1 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Tapeta winner in March (1m4f), and fair effort against a pace bias back on turf latest; no chances taken with initial hurdles mark (peak RPR 78 to date), but yet to encounter a sound surface in this discipline. |

On a losing run and he beat only one in 11.5f Lingfield handicap ten days ago; not ruled out though if back on his A-game. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Five wins from 43 starts, the most recent at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last January off a mark 10lb higher than today's; bounced back from a disappointing run when fourth of six at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) 17 days ago and has place claims. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Returned from break with 1m4f AW win in February, but didn't fire when back on turf this month and her tendency to race too freely is always a worry; others appeal more. |
10/1 |
|
8th 4 (5) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple winner who has finished fourth and first in two C&D starts, latterly when making all last August (good to firm); has added two more wins since, on turf and AW, most recently in February, and while not obviously ahead of her mark she shouldn't be far away. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Collared close home over 1m6f here last time; just as effective at 1m4f last year but nudged back up 2lb and no win since August 2024. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Latest Kempton effort (1m4f) wasn't one of his best but he is on a feasible mark on last year's best; Rossa Ryan booked and a better effort should be forthcoming. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
A three-time winner (including over C&D) in 2025 for Ian Williams; in good nick for his present yard too, fourth of eight in 1m3f Southwell handicap eight days ago; not out of things. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
On the downgrade in recent times for Ian Williams, from whom he was picked up for 7,500gns last month; just a fair debut for his new yard recently and this trip is a bare minimum these days. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (9) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On the downgrade in recent times for Ian Williams, from whom he was picked up for 7,500gns last month, his latest second coming in a messy, small-field affair; decent record here, though, and is one to consider under regular partner Billy Loughnane. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Three AW wins last year, the latest over C&D in October and he's now back to that mark for the first time since; bits of encouragement since give him a place in calculations. |
16/1 |

8th 7 (3) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Fast-finishing fourth over 1m2f at Lingfield in January but he hasn't found the same form in two subsequent outings there; Marquand up but others bring more compelling claims. |

7th 2 (2) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Fast-finishing fourth over C&D 19 days ago but he wasn't in the same form behind Tommy's Promise here one week later; Rossa Ryan booked and he's capable of a big run at this level. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Six-time Flat winner including five on AW (1m-1m2f) since December; unexposed over hurdles and was fair fourth of 13 back in this sphere at Hereford (2m, good; 12-1) last week; should have more to offer as a jumper but this looks a tough task against Un Sens A La Vie. |
14/1 |

4th 7 |
16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Had one run over hurdles, finishing tailed off in a maiden in late 2024; multiple Flat winner since December and wasn't beaten far at Pontefract last week (1m; stays 1m4f); should run well if jumping stands the test. |
5/1 |

Successful five times (1m-1m2f) on AW since December and ran well at Southwell (1m3f) last week; likely player, provided the form is transferred back to turf; 1-14 in this sphere. |

7th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Seven-race maiden who finished runner-up in two of his six starts on turf in Ireland last summer (both over this trip), but failed to beat a rival on stable debut/reappearance at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) last month; something to prove. |
13/2 |

10th 6 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Second at Killarney (1m6f) last summer in two of three Irish handicaps for John Joseph Murphy, trying cheekpieces when short-headed on latest outing (good); off 210 days but this lightly raced AW newcomer needs a second look. |
9/1 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 80y |
