3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
1m4f wins at Doncaster (good) and here (good to firm) for new yard this summer; he has come up short in stronger company on his last two starts but holds good claims back in a Class 6. |
9/4 |
|
7th 14 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
2-6 for this yard but both wins were at 1m4f at Class 6 level; looks worth taking on, for all that his last race on the AW didn't go entirely to plan. |
20/1 |

5th 11 |
29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 8lb
|
Has made a bright start for his current yard and made it two wins from his last three runs in 1m4f handicap at Beverley two days ago; also took this in 2024, so he's a player under a 4lb penalty. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Good second at Doncaster (1m4f) in May but scuppered by a slow start when a never-nearer fifth of 11 at Hamilton (1m4f) last time; no surprise to see her play a prominent role here. |
11/4 |
|
5th 3 (7) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Just one win from her 17 starts but she's run really well in defeat at Doncaster on both turf outings this season (1m2f/1m4f, good to soft/good) and there's every chance she'll be bang there once more. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 6 (7) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Inconsistent sort with record of 1-16; finished behind Sisterandbrother when fifth at Southwell (1m3f) last month but a close third in big field over C&D on her reappearance in March; has claims if she can recapture that form and her win was on good ground. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who arrives in good form, third of seven in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster 15 days ago; not out of things in his bid for a maiden victory. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Form figures of 323 in maiden/novice events but he's been well held in four handicaps; may have had stamina issues over 2m at Lingfield (AW) last month but he needs to raise his game on this big drop back in trip. |
7/2 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Low-mileage 4yo; safely held in first three handicaps (1m-1m2f) but this big hike up in trip is an interesting move; cheekpieces removed after one use; well worth a glance in the bettting. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Was having just his third go on AW when taking a Southwell handicap (1m3f, Tapeta) last month and he backed it up with slightly unlucky second at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; 1lb nudge looks no bother at all and he's near the top of the list. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Took advantage of a reduced mark when battling well to score at 20-1 at Southwell (1m3f, AW; cheekpieces reapplied) two weeks ago; back up 4lb in the weights but he remains well treated on old form and his first win was on turf; shortlisted. |
5/1 |
|
1st 6 (4) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Handicapper quick to ease off this spring and he turned in his best effort for this yard when fourth behind Sisterandbrother at Doncaster last weekend; inclined to over-race back in cheekpieces there and has to prove he can do it on the AW. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was in July 2022 but he returned to the Flat for new yard with a front-running third at Pontefract (1m2f, good; tongue-tie added) two weeks ago; that was an encouraging effort after a break and he has possibilities if he can build on that. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won in France in 2020 and scored over C&D in 2022 but has developed a rocky profile and was in poor form when last seen over hurdles in the autumn; has joined Martin Keighley (same owners) but watching brief advised on this comeback in a tongue-tie. |
33/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Dropped out of contention rather tamely at Uttoxeter (2m) last week and is now 0-11 over hurdles; has quite a bit to prove on this first venture beyond about 2m1f. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last spring but he's struggled in his last eight starts including over hurdles in last two runs; now 10lb lower than for his last success but he needs a big turnaround for new yard (has changed hands and left Mike Smith); hood removed and cheekpieces return. |
16/1 |
|
9th 3 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Two Flat wins but form went the wrong way in that code from last August onwards and he was pulled up at 150-1 on hurdle debut four weeks ago. |
