1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Still 4lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last month, but has run well off this mark and higher in her two outings since; has finished first and second in his two starts under Myla Coppins; stable also runs Dogged; major player. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In fine form since returned to turf this spring, winning two races at about 1m3f (firm and good to firm); had a 7lb higher mark to contend with when outpointed back at Bath since but the winner wasn't badly treated on past Flat form and autumn hurdle wins; now 3lb lower; major player. |

2nd 1 (4) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Brings good stats, being 2-2 since returned to turf from AW and 2-3 at Bath; justified favouritism at Windsor last week when avoiding a penalty for his C&D success under Myla Coppins; has to deal with revised mark and a 4lb penalty but still respected. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Two-time course winner, the latest last September (1m5f, firm); runner-up here on three of her last five starts, including her latest, and this front-runner can make a bold bid. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 10 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Front-runner who was runner-up twice here (including this trip) on firm in April; not at the same level twice since, although a slow start offers an excuse on the first occasion. |
14/1 |
|
4th 8 (7) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Front-runner who came second twice at Bath (11.6f/1m2f, firm) last month; subsequent lesser effort there is probably best overlooked (slowly away after anticipating start), and she can give this a good shot. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Still seeking his first win after 20 attempts but he has finished second in three of his last four starts, including C&D; Billy Loughnane booked and he is more appealing than most. |
11/10 |
|
2nd 6 (2) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-19 but found just the even-money favourite who has won again since too strong in first-time blinkers (retained) at Ffos Las last week; should cope with dropping back to 1m from 1m2f and is drawn to attack. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive maiden but hasn't been running too badly and it was a classified race in which he was second two starts back (8.6f); should run well in new blinkers. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning a 0-55 contest by a neck over C&D three weeks ago; 5lb rise puts him on his previous winning mark and although not the easiest of rides, Tom Queally knows him well (2-8 on him); major player. |
11/4 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Disappointing favourite in first-time blinkers at Bath (11.6f, good) last month but that headgear is dispensed with and cheekpieces return; drops into a 0-55 for the first time and is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last July; respected; stable also runs Letsbeatsepsis. |
6/1 |

9th 3 (5) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

Backed up a good run on the AW with a fourth here last week when just behind Knightmare; a tongue-tie returns along with new blinkers; thereabouts. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Nine-race maiden who plugged on for third over 1m2f here (firm) last time; fifth over C&D (also firm) prior to that; needs to find a bit more. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 8 (7) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Eight-race maiden whose recent efforts over further suggest this drop back to 1m2f is well worth exploring; bigger effort is not out of the question. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won when cheekpieces were first fitted and again when they were reapplied early in the year, so it's a plus point that they are back on today; not shown much since leaving Ian Williams but soft ground was no good to him last time and he'll be happier back on the AW. |
16/1 |
|
8th 9 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Generally consistent in his time with Ian Williams when he scored three times on AW from 1m to 1m2f; second start for this yard wasn't devoid of promise at Kempton (1m4f) 17 days ago but suitability for the combination of this trip and likely ground is yet to be determined. |
12/1 |
|
8th 11 (6) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Gained all three wins for Ian Williams at classified level on AW; always behind on stable debut at Bath (11.6f, firm) last month but he now returns to Polytrack and has claims if he can get back near best; hood is removed and tongue-tie returns. |

8st 10lb |
0-11, his best effort when second of eight at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last July; not disgraced here (9.5f) in March, but has plenty to prove over this far. |
14/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Ten-race maiden with the odd piece of modest form (good to firm and AW) but below that level on last two runs back on turf. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |

6th 8 (2) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-7, but ran his best race so far when beaten just over a length third of ten behind Knight Of Magic at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last month; 3lb better off with the winner and that was his first start in 223 days, so a case can be made. |
5/1 |

3rd 10 (10) |
17th Feb 2026 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Unplaced in all six starts at up to 1m4f; new, longer trip not enough to tempt. |
