9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Last five wins have come on the AW including when completing a hat-trick in the spring; has winning form on good to firm ground, but his last two efforts since returning to turf need improving upon. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Was recording wins eight, nine and ten when rattling off an AW hat-trick this spring (1m-8.6f); the wheels came off when well-beaten over C&D 33 days ago, however, and this mark looks beyond him. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has rattled off a hat-trick on AW this spring including a clearcut win at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; this is tougher off 9lb higher but he remains feasibly treated on his old form and is a five-time winner on turf; key player. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Placed on his first two runs this year but last two runs not so good; three of his four turf wins have been at Bath, and may be best to wait until he returns to that venue. |
10/1 |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |

Started the campaign with solid 1m efforts at Lingfield (AW) and Bath (firm); disappointed back at Bath last time but no surprise to see him bounce back in this uncompetitive event. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four AW wins (6f-8.5f) but yet to register (0-16) on turf; placed at Nottingham (8.5f, good to firm) in mid July but less competitive at Wolverhampton (9.5f) and Beverley (1m2f) since; easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |
10/1 |

6th 2 (5) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
All four wins on the AW and 0-15 on turf, though has been running well at 1m-1m2f on grass this year without getting the job done; does have to bounce back from a poor one, however. |
6/1 |

10th 4 (4) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Held off his revised mark on turf since two AW wins, including here, in April; wins have all come over shorter but he stays this far and is one to consider back on Tapeta. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Eight-time winner; made a winning stable debut for Laura Mongan (1m, AW) in March but that wasn't a springboard to better things; sold for 2,000gns in July; return to 6f should suit on stable debut. |
20/1 |

9th 6 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won at 6f and over C&D for James Owen at the start of the year, then over 1m here on yard debut in March, but his last three runs have been nothing like as good; has plenty to prove back at 7f. |
25/1 |

10th 6 (12) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Enjoyed a revival for James Owen and this yard earlier in the year, with three wins, including two round here; up in the weights now, though, and finished well behind a couple of these over C&D a month ago; needs more from somewhere. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course win (1m) on her handicap debut last April; in and out since but she ran well for second at Bath (1m, good) this April and a repeat would see her on the premises at this level; needs to bounce back from a poor run at Leicester 110 days ago. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |

Back from five months off in good form, set a lot to do and nearest at the finish when second of 14 in 1m Bath handicap last month; she can go well again. |
7/1 |

2nd 12 (12) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won second time out last spring and a reproduction wouldn't surprise, as she was not suited by the way the race panned out on AW comeback; on a competitive mark now for a yard enjoying a good spell and she is one to consider. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Three AW wins at 1m and 7f in midwinter and he wasn't too far off his best at Wolverhampton recently but his two turf runs, most recently at Yarmouth in May, leave him with some questions hanging. |
16/1 |

4th 4 (4) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Won three times on the Lingfield Polytrack (7f/1m) during the winter and just 1lb higher than for the latest, but not at his best lately; others more solid. |
16/1 |

7th 5 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Three wins at Lingfield (7f-1m) over the winter; his form has cooled more recently and he returns to turf (well held in one attempt) with a point to prove; can blow the start. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Five wins since December, three of them at this track (including over 1m); 3lb wrong under his penalty but he's never been in better form. |

1st 8 (6) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

Four wins, including C&D, this winter and latest Chelmsford run probably not the one to judge him on; that said, he wouldn't look to have much wiggle room off his current mark. |
8/1 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won four times during the winter (7f-1m) and has gone up more than a stone in the weights, having been nudged up another 2lb for last weekend's Lingfield second; won't mind going back up in trip, though, and has a decent chance of adding to his tally. |

29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Following a long layoff she's been down the field in a Kempton novice (7f, Polytrack) and a Lingfield handicap (1m, Polytrack) on her two runs this year; however, she remains very lightly raced and she showed plenty of promise here in October 2024; yard in fine form; no surprise to see a big run. |
10/1 |
|
8th 3 (10) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
She finished second at Southwell (7f) on her second 2yo run but there are question marks over the value of that form; should come on for last month's return from a long absence and stepping up in trip should be a help judged on her pedigree; unexposed. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (4) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Readily saw off eight rivals at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month but he's been disappointing in both subsequent runs; has something to prove again and he has form figures of 5097 at Bath. |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Gained his second C&D success when winning off a 2lb higher mark in February but he's been down the field in four starts since, including when missing the break at Lingfield 27 days ago; return to form is needed. |
8/1 |

10th 4 (7) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Well short of his best on his last three starts but he won off this mark at Southwell in early February (7f); capable on a good day but this isn't sure to be run to suit. |
