13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Southwell in March and April (1m3f/1m4f) before another solid effort when third there 46 days ago; still seeking his first win on turf but has each-way claims in the returning cheekpieces. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
In fine form in recent months and bids for a course hat-trick; had half a length to spare over Arth's Gold over this trip last time and is now 3lb worse off, but something appears to have clicked; major player. |

1st 6 (5) |

Took him 19 attempts to break his duck but his last three efforts read 121, the latest win coming by a head over 1m3f here eight days ago; 3lb rise fair enough and should stay the extra furlong; shortlisted. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Capable of the odd howler but he opened his account in Southwell handicap (1m4f, Tapeta) in April and similar form when third in an amateur riders' race back there three weeks later; wasn't at his best in another amateur riders' race last time but he's recovered from blips before. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Finally opened his account at Southwell in April and he followed it with a solid third of eight there eight days ago; ought to be thereabouts again. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
A few near-misses around here before finally off the mark three weeks ago off 6lb lower (boasts a much better record on Tapeta than Polytrack); holds obvious claims under the vastly experienced Simon Walker. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Record over C&D reads 1233 and he's back off the same mark as when successful at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) in February; player in the returning cheekpieces. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 8 (1) |
18th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Scored over C&D in December (off 3lb lower) and at Chelmsford in February; has run respectably since, including when beaten favourite at Bath last time; remains on a competitive mark and won't be far away. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual winner on the AW since joining this stable; pulled hard and unfortunate not to finish closer at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) four days ago, denied a clear passage; may settle better with the hood back on (visor removed) and is one to consider seriously. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Easy win at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in March but not at that level in six runs since; minor money perhaps his best hope. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |

Scored at Southwell (1m4f) in March but only ninth of 11 in handicap over C&D ten days ago; not proving the easiest to catch right of late. |
20/1 |

9th 6 (11) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Easily landed an amateur riders' event at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in March and wasn't beaten far into fourth of 12 in a similar contest at Ripon (1m4f, good) last time, but he still needs more in order to come out best here. |

9st 2lb |
Off the mark on AW at Newcastle (1m4f) in September 2024 on his final start for Rebecca Menzies but hasn't seriously threatened in two recent AW outings for new yard since returning from a long absence. |
9/1 |
|
8th 7 (3) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark at the 17th attempt when winning at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) in September 2024 on his final start for Rebecca Menzies; didn't shape badly here over 1m4f on his stable debut last time having been off for 558 days; may build on that over this longer trip. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (7) |
5th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sent off 1-3 when making it 17th-time lucky at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) in September 2024; has since left Rebecca Menzies (same owners) and the market should reveal what is expected. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained a first win over C&D in September; got back on track despite not enjoying the smoothest of passages when third of 12 in 1m2f handicap at Redcar eight days ago so she must enter calculations. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 8 (13) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-12 on turf, although solid run when third at Beverley last June (1m2f, good to firm); plenty to prove after finishing 35l fifth of six at Pontefract last time (1m2f, good). |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
One win from 17 attempts came over 1m2f (AW; acts on sound turf) in September; reappearance fourth in AW classified wasn't a bad effort in March and she likely didn't stay 1m4f last time; still has work to do from out of the handicap back on grass. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Easy C&D win for regular partner Elle-May Croot in March came off 1lb higher; typically inconsistent since but has claims on his latest turf effort as he chases a seventh course win. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Often a front-runner and the last six of his seven wins were on Southwell AW, with the latest in March; Elle-May Croot knows him especially well and he's back 1lb below his last winning mark but the return to Southwell (from turf) for latest outing did not spark an upturn; best watched at present. |
14/1 |
|
4th 6 (9) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |

Often a front-runner and gained the last six of his seven wins on this Southwell AW, with the latest win in March; Elle-May Croot knows him especially well, he's back to his last winning mark and return to Southwell (latest run here was five starts ago) might spark something. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Has shown better form over hurdles than on the Flat in 2026 but may benefit from the return from this scenario, having gained sole success over C&D; second start for new yard. |
12/1 |
|
8th 10 (10) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Sole win from 15 starts came at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) last February when trained by Jim & Suzi Best; 0-5 for his previous stable (Flat/hurdles) and has a hood applied on his first outing for Luke Dace. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Low-grade winner on the AW who has shown some aptitude for hurdling, making the frame in run-of-the-mill 2m maidens at Hereford (good) and Huntingdon (good to firm); not obviously well treated for this handicap debut but should feature in a weak race. |

Placed for the first time when second of nine at Newcastle (12.5f, AW; 100-1) in February in first-time cheekpieces (retained since); beat only one home when beaten 26l here (1m4f) 20 days ago; has possibilities if able to show his best form. |

9st 1lb |
Ridden by Finlay Bassett on last eight outings; sole win from 17 starts came on her handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) in December; runner-up on three of her next four starts, including here, but not so good in recent races and needs to perk up again. |

3rd 7 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 6 |

Won on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) in December; 0-9 since but she's finished runner-up three times and was a fair fourth behind Nala The Lioness at Windsor (11.4f, good to soft) last week; has a swing in the weights with her old rival and she's an each-way contender. |
