18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
In fine form at 6f on the AW of late, winning at Southwell and Newcastle; has a better strike-rate on sand than turf (1-17) but he was running to a similar level on grass as AW in 2025 and it may be unwise to presume he's a one-surface wonder; respected. |

Good efforts in all three 6f runs this year, placed behind the prolific Yorkshire Glory twice and readily seeing off five rivals at Southwell eight days ago; 1lb well in under a penalty; should go well. |

8st 12lb |
Only one of his ten wins has been on turf (record of 1-27); beaten less than 2l when fifth of 12 at Redcar on most recent turf run, but poor effort back on AW next time; others preferred. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
C&D win was sole 7f success among eight others over 6f; however, he stayed on well and only just failed to get up over Newcastle's stiff 6f in April so a good run isn't impossible in first 7f run since March 2025. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Has been running well on the AW but that's more his thing, the scene of nine of his ten wins; could still have a part to play. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Fairly consistent sort; ran up to her best when runner-up here (6f) 11 days ago; first-time hood replaces visor and good chance that stepping back up in trip can eke out further improvement. |
4/1 |

2nd 8 (2) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
1-17, her sole success coming in 2024 when trained by Darryll Holland; has been running well this year and looks sure to be thereabouts. |
7/2 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Just a nursery win for another yard to her name and expensive to follow this year, getting turned over as favourite three times; consistent enough but been nudged up the weights in defeat and is having just a second try at 5f. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Continues to edge down the weights, but 0-16 in handicaps and stamina for this far remains a major concern; finished behind two of these over C&D a fortnight ago; stable also runs Vecchio. |
14/1 |

11th 1 (10) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had beaten only one rival home in his first four starts for this stable but he's posted two solid efforts since wearing the hood on its own; down another 2lb and he's an each-way contender. |

4th 4 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Had beaten only one rival home in his first four starts for this stable but he took a step back in the right direction when third at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) six days ago when wearing the hood on its own (same today); chance. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won on turf but better on the AW and may have needed it at Wetherby last time after a break (and wind surgery); perhaps more effective at 6f, though. |

15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has won on turf (6f at Thirsk in 2022) but better on the AW and probably best watched after a break having had wind op. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Often front-runner; fourth of nine over C&D in January but he's struggled in three starts since; another headgear swap; others preferred. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |
2/1 |

2nd 8 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In the frame in four of his last six starts and drops to this level for the first time, but a record of 0-25 raises doubts even in this company; visor given a go this time. |
5/1 |

4th 4 (9) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well treated on plenty of form but has been unable to take advantage of a steadily declining mark for current connections and latest defeat took his record to 0-24. |
