20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Made a winning stable debut at Pontefract (6f, good) in April; never featured at Epsom on Oaks day but he was back in form when third of ten at Thirsk 19 days ago; each-way shout. |
7/2 |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Got up late to win a 6f handicap at Pontefract on his stable debut in April; no impact in a 7f handicap at Epsom on Oaks day; others bring stronger credentials. |
12/1 |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Considerable promise during light career for Karl Burke and better than ever when getting up close home in small field on his stable/seasonal debut at Pontefract (6f, good); there can be optimism that he will be fine back up to 7f and on slower ground, and he could have more to offer; contender. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
C&D winner off this mark on soft ground (also won on good to firm) last autumn; his recent efforts have been no more than respectable but he's nicely handicapped back at venue which suits. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Form at Pontefract features two wins last term and a close second during a consistent spell this spring; however, finished almost 6l behind Rock Opera here last time and has work to do to reverse those placings. |
13/2 |

4th 3 (5) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Below par last time but consistent otherwise of late and may well rebound, especially back at Pontefract; form here features two wins in 2025 and a close second this spring. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Maiden winner who has had lots of chances in handicaps but ran well to be sixth of 22 at York (good), running on over 7f; drawn in 1 and can race prominently; considered. |
3/1 |
|
6th 20 (22) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won a 6f Ripon maiden last June and stays 7f; 0-13 in handicaps, however, and others present stronger cases despite his career-low mark. |
14/1 |
|
5th 8 (4) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won a C&D maiden (good) last June on his second start for Tim Easterby; returned after a lengthy absence with a creditable fifth here (6f, good to soft) last month and ran another solid race at Pontefract last time; still looks on a workable mark and he shouldn't be far away. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins have come on good to soft ground but he does have one good run on good to firm to his name; disappointed at Windsor last month but this is an ease in grade. |
40/1 |
|
12th 12 (10) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Two 6f wins to his name on good to soft ground; unplaced in two runs this year but neither run was without promise; he will need a personal best to come out on top here though. |
12/1 |
|
8th 7 (13) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
His two wins came on good to soft ground over 6f, including here off this mark last June; entitled to have needed his recent comeback from nine months off, when leading for a long way, and he's low mileage compared to most of these; first run over 5f. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Thrown in on last season's best; yet to get going for David O'Meara this time around but he has dropped 10lb for his troubles and the addition of a visor could help; stable also runs Yes I'm Mali. |
28/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gave impression something was possibly amiss last time, taking record for new yard to 0-4; interesting on best form, which includes a win over C&D and close second to Photosynthesis at Newmarket. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
6f novice win here last summer came after a wind op; well beaten at Pontefract on his seasonal return, after which he underwent further wind surgery; dangerous mark if it has the desired effect. |
12/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Underwent wind surgery prior to his Doncaster novice success last July (6f, good); ran well in a 7f handicap at York two weeks later but his form dropped off afterwards; gelded during his absence; dangerous mark but may find others having his measure now back from a break. |
12/1 |
|
10th 11 (13) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Returned from wind surgery with a 6f novice win at Doncaster in July and subsequently achieved more when a close fourth of 16 in a 7f handicap at York in July; not so tempting on subsequent runs though and offputting he declined a soft-ground race last month. |
12/1 |
