6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took ten goes to get off the mark but it was a convincing win at Ffos Las (1m4f, soft) in August and he doubled his tally when bagging Southwell handicap (1m3f, AW) on his April return; back up 4lb but he might be capable of better and holds leading claims. |

1st 4 (2) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough in a 0-55 at Ffos Las (1m4f, soft; 6-4 favourite) last August; failed to back that up in two subsequent starts, the latest when fifth of seven at Redcar (1m6f, good) in November; 2lb lower returned to AW (0-7) for seasonal reappearance. |

Never got involved on the AW last time but had previously got off the mark with a 4l win over 1m4f at Ffos Las (soft); that form brings him into this, off just a 3lb higher mark. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took this race last year and landed a handicap at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) in March; well beaten over 1m here last Saturday and, although this trip should suit him better, he needs to put that performance behind him; blinkers return. |
7/1 |

10th 7 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His last two wins have come on Tapeta but over longer trips, the latest (1m3f, Southwell) in March off 3lb lower; could prove vulnerable back at 1m. |
10/1 |

7th 8 (12) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
No turf win since August 2021; kept on well when winning on AW at Southwell (1m3f; from 3lb lower) in March; perhaps found 1m (here) and 1m2f at Pontefract on the sharp side since; Becky Smith now takes the mount. |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Dual AW winner whose most recent success came at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) last month; below his best at Chester last time but drops back into class 6 company with claims. |
10/1 |

7th 3 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
This year's four wins have been in Class 6s but it was very clearcut at Beverley (1m4f, good to form) three weeks ago when the cheekpieces were back on; he's still fairly treated off 4lb higher. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ran well when second of nine in returning cheekpieces at Leicester (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but all seven wins have been on the AW; still 6lb lower than for the latest of those, but he attempts beyond 1m6f for the first time on his 63rd outing. |

2nd 2 (3) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on the AW (1m2f-1m4f) and he ran creditably on his last two starts; however, he's yet to finish in the first three in five starts on turf and others are preferred; cheekpieces are back on for the first time since 2024. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won over 1m2f at Ayr before her near miss there on Monday where she came from some way off the pace; could be considered a tad unlucky and gets in here off the same mark; stays this far and could give Halimede a race. |
7/2 |

2nd 8 (2) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
In good form this year, most recently when coming from the rear for C&D (good) success five weeks ago; subsequent 3lb rise is offset by Jack Nicholls' claim today; likely contender again. |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins have come on Tapeta at Wolverhampton, the latest on her reappearance (9.5f) in April when trained by Kevin Frost; probably didn't stay on stable debut there (1m4f) four weeks ago but still has enough to prove, especially from the outside stall. |
10/1 |

8th 1 (6) |
14th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Overcame a wide trip when narrowly winning here over 9.5f in April and posted another good effort when third of 11 here last month; has since left Kevin and Lauren Frost and steps back up in trip, which is a concern, on her stable debut. |
12/1 |

3rd 5 (1) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Was returning from six months off and drawn wide when beating Arlecchino's Rex by a short head over C&D in April, but found the trip too far at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) 13 days later; still 3lb higher than for the win, but still high on the list back under these conditions. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Regressive, 13-race maiden who hasn't improved since undergoing wind surgery during the winter; twice ran well off higher marks over C&D last autumn, so a case can be made, but no upturn with the tongue-tie enlisted on latest outing and he's now given a go in first-time headgear. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three third-placed finishes on quick turf (1m) and AW (9.5f) last term but finished the year tamely and wind surgery didn't improve matters in two starts last month; tongue-tie added. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Maiden (0-11); twice placed on AW, including when third to Serious Look at Wolverhampton (9.4f; 10-1) last October; less effective since - eased 5lb in the weights - but could draw benefit from his Yarmouth comeback run (first outing since wind surgery). |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Three-time winner (including over C&D) last spring; failed to beat a rival on his last three outings and has lots to prove after a layoff. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (8) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
7-47 on AW but has struggled for form since finishing third at Newcastle (1m, Class 5; from 12lb higher) last November; failed to beat a rival in each of his last two starts (9.4f/1m4f) so it's difficult to have confidence. |
