16th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 1f 21y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, good; peak form) in April but hasn't lived up to that; tailed off on good to soft at Sandown 18 days ago and connections turn to headgear. |

11th 9 (5) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Made successful reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April but hasn't built on that, only tenth at York in June; bit to prove. |

10th 6 (3) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Haydock maiden winner on last year's return and he again made a successful reappearance when impressively taking ten-runner Nottingham handicap (1m2f, good) in April; bit below that form when beaten 8l at Goodwood (City Of Delight second, Urban Glimpse behind) off this mark six weeks ago, however. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple winner but a 7lb rise for winning so well over C&D (good to firm) in July triggered a career-high mark off which he's struggled the last twice; only 1lb lower here and others are preferred again. |
14/1 |
|
5th 5 (1) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple winner but a 7lb rise for winning so well at Pontefract triggered a career-high mark off which he disappointed back there two weeks ago; handles good to soft but slower ground asks questions of him. |
14/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won here (1m, good) in June on first course visit; no match for the winner when second here (1m, good to firm) next time but he returned to winning ways in commanding fashion over today's C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; a 7lb rise takes him to a career-high mark but he has to be respected. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Keeps getting better and arrives on a hat-trick after wins at Yarmouth (final start for James Ferguson) and over C&D; heavily backed and quickened smartly to come from the rear and beat seven rivals last time; does not look overburdened by a 5lb rise, and although this is stronger he looks sure to go well again. |
7/2 |
|
1st 1 (7) |
19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
His second of 11 over C&D (wore cheekpieces) on reappearance in March was a new high and he bettered that when landing soft-ground Yarmouth handicap (1m) in first-time blinkers in June; off since and no headgear for this stable debut (same owners) but he still commands respect. |
5/2 |
|
1st 3 (5) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice as a 3yo, including a handicap at Goodwood (1m, good) last May; placed on his first two starts this year (1m/1m2f) but below his best when held in fourth at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) 46 days ago; drops back in trip with blinkers now tried. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Unraced over this far but a step back up to 1m6f did the trick at Ffos Las (soft; acts on good to firm) 11 days ago for first win this term; pretty consistent but the 5lb penalty means that he probably needs better than his 2026 form. |
9/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
21st Sep 2026 Heavy 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to win this season but has been pretty consistent and is edging down the weights; once ran quite well on soft ground but confidence in him would be higher on a quicker surface, particularly over this trip. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
On a losing run but he's proving consistent this season and posted a solid third of six in 1m2f handicap here two weeks ago; this course winner ought to be thereabouts once more. |

Only 1-17 and it's been a while now since he ran a positive race; readily opposed. |
33/1 |
|
9th 7 (3) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Well handicapped on old form but well below best for new yard earlier this year and has since finished well held on debut over hurdles (following a wind op), though did run well to a point; others safer. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Looked a non-stayer over 1m4f in June and was never in contention after a slow start at Salisbury (1m2f) in June; now back on her last winning mark and not out of this. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 8 (4) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Returns to her optimum trip, having looked a non-stayer over 1m4f last time; likely player on the pick of her 1m2f form, namely two wins (2024/2025) and a creditable second (last autumn). |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Effective on good and heavy; quiet comeback run and she can be inconsistent, but she's a dual winner on a fair mark and very capable at this level. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended long losing run with emphatic 1m2f success early last month on his only appearance at this track; reverted to lesser displays on his two starts since but has another change of headgear (first blinkers) and isn't dismissed back at Newcastle. |
14/1 |
|
7th 4 (9) |
23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Ended long losing run with emphatic success at Newcastle (1m2f) this month; still on a workable mark after 4lb rise and recent defeat on soft turf is not viewed harshly; no surprise if he features. |
12/1 |
|
7th 10 (7) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Three-time turf winner who was well on top last week in a 1m2f Class 5 at Newcastle where the visor returned; back up 4lb in stronger company but he has won here and might not be far away. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten ten times since his winning debut at Chester (7f, good) 12 months ago; prominent in the betting at Kempton (7f) 12 days ago but there was no upturn in his fortune; still appeals as the type to pop up soon. |
8/1 |
|
9th 5 (12) |
9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Made a winning debut at Chester (7f, good) last September but he's 0-9 since and has form figures of 8805489 in handicaps; now 18lb lower than for his opening mark but he needs a big turnaround back at this trip; eyeshields removed. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
A second go at hurdling saw him tailed off again three weeks ago, but he'd clocked up three successive minor honours on Flat (1m4f/1m2f) going into that, which keeps him in the equation. |
10/1 |
|
6th 6 |
8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
A fair 1m4f Flat scorer for Ben Brookhouse last summer; only eighth in 2m Newbury maiden on his hurdling debut in December but returns to this sphere having been in good form on the Flat; not out of things. |
9/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Perhaps best over further but he was only nabbed late on over C&D last week and, although 1lb higher, Toby Moore rides him for the first time claiming 7lb; can be inconsistent but he's run three excellent races in defeat around here; solid chance. |

8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who won on handicap debut at Wolverhampton in December (8.6f) and has run to a similar level in three subsequent runs; needs to find more but he's unexposed at this trip and was beaten less than 1l when fifth at Newcastle (1m2f) last time; not ruled out. |
7/1 |

5th 1 (8) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who has proved consistent so far, twice finishing third over similar trips to this since narrowly making a successful handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in December; may still have more to offer and respected. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 (10) |
26th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Lightly raced 5yo; narrowly made a successful handicap debut here (8.6f) last month and finished half a length behind Oman when third of nine at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) 11 days ago; cheekpieces given a go and remains open to further progress. |
