16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won at Newmarket (7f, good) in May, ran respectably at Goodwood next time and beaten a neck at Newmarket four weeks ago; finished last in April (reappearance) in his only race on good to firm but otherwise needs plenty of respect. |

2nd 8 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won an ordinary apprentice handicap easily under 8lb claimer Chloe Lyons on the Rowley Mile last month and was handed a stiff 8lb rise for it; ran to a similar level off his revised mark in better company (soft) last time to confirm himself still in form. |
4/1 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Capitalised on his reduced mark when running away with a 7f handicap at Newmarket three weeks ago (good ground); hit with an 8lb rise but he has had few chances at the trip; untested on slower than good. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Only contested seven handicaps and won four; would have gone close in Alpha Capture's race here last time had he broken on terms; chance. |
5/1 |

3rd 10 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Four wins (including C&D) and a second from his six handicap runs; still has time to progress further and he looks a solid candidate once more. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 (7) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Made it four out of five in handicaps when prevailing in a big field at Doncaster (7f, good to firm); this lightly raced 4yo is clearly progressive and should be a tough nut to crack. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Very pleasing return from 275-day break at Leicester this month; lacked a change of gear at Newmarket (also 7f) subsequently and returning to 1m looks in his favour; draw hasn't been kind, though. |
15/2 |
|
3rd 2 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
0-9 but consistent last year and may well have made a winning reappearance at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last Saturday but for blowing the start (hasn't tended to be an issue in the past); key player. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 5 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Proved reliable without winning in 2025, signing off with a good third of nine in 1m Nottingham handicap in August; remains low mileage so not out of things on his seasonal return. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two 7f AW wins at Southwell this year but he's not easy to predict and was only fourth of seventh at Newmarket (7f, good) last time; that took his turf record to 1-19 and he has something to prove back at this trip. |
10/1 |
|
4th 8 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Blew the start at Leicester last month when making it 1-18 on turf; however, he won at Southwell (7f, AW) in February and was back on the scoresheet there (7f) last Thursday, and is not ruled out today. |
8/1 |
|
1st 7 (7) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All three of his wins on the AW have been at this track, the most recent in a C&D classified in February; well beaten after missing the break at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago but may bounce back returned to AW. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won three minor sprint handicaps for Ollie Sangster last year; poor form in three runs in 2026, the latest at Bath last week, and she arrives with a point to prove. |
16/1 |
|
8th 4 (5) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Triple winner (one C&D) for Ollie Sangster last year; uncompetitive for new connections, including in first-time tongue-tie (retained) at Nottingham four weeks ago; better options elsewhere. |
11/2 |

7th 6 (9) |

Won three times for Ollie Sangster (5.5f/6f); solid effort when beaten only 2l at Wolverhampton on her stable debut in December but she's not built on that in two starts since; tongue-tie added. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

0-7 and he has beaten just three rivals home in his four handicap starts; tumbling down the weights but carries risk. |
25/1 |

7th 3 (9) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Promising third at Kempton (7f, AW) last March on his second start but has beaten only one rival in three handicaps since; still lightly raced but he needs a transformation at this new trip; cheekpieces added. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Started his career well but it's been poor from April 2024 onwards; has had only two races for current yard and now sports tongue-tie and cheekpieces, both for the first time; 30lb lower than his opening mark. |
25/1 |

8th 8 (12) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |

Has lost his way since looking promising initially and finished last on yard debut at Newmarket after a lengthy absence; that was over 7f, but might not be crying out for this far. |

2nd Mar 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
This son of Time Test cost 4,000gns as a yearling and is closely related to 1m/1m2f winner Zara's Return (RPR 82); dam French 1m AW winner; likely best watched on debut. |
