1st 1 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to Tony Carroll and left a couple of quiet AW runs behind when scoring over C&D (beat She Went Whoosh by nearly 3l) and at Brighton (6f) in May; came up short in hat-trick bid at Windsor on Monday but was out of his comfort zone early over the bare 5f before plugging on into fifth; not dismissed if turned out quickly. |
9/4 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last month and he did it in good style; followed up under a 4lb penalty at Brighton (6f, again good to firm) one week later, leading in the final strides, so this 5f could be an issue but he's on a roll again. |
11/2 |
|
1st 3 (9) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last Friday and he did it in good style; that gives him a big chance under just a 4lb penalty but he's run with credit at Brighton only once from eight visits. |

Best of the rest behind Neptune Legend over C&D in May (sole course run) but she's struggled since. |
20/1 |
|
10th 8 (10) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win to her name (5f, AW) from 35 starts and she has finished out the back on her last two starts; steps up to 7f with a point to prove. |
25/1 |
|
8th 7 (2) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just 1-34 and her latest Wolverhampton effort (5f, AW) was modest, but she had previously run well under a positive ride when second of 12 in a 0-55 handicap at Bath (5.7f, good to firm); each-way claims if producing her best. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

1-26 but generally consistent; didn't show any obvious improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when third here (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago and likely to be competing for minor honours. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-25 but he went close over 7f at Wolverhampton in March and his Bath third last month (5.7f, good to firm) was another sound effort; should remain competitive with first-time cheekpieces added. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
12-race maiden; track and ground no concern and he was running on well when second over 5.3f here 12 days ago; has been placed over 7f but others may see it out better. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 (7) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-11 but has made the frame in seven of his eight starts in handicap company, including when fourth of 12 in this headgear combination on his return from five months off at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 18 days ago (She Went Whoosh second); drops to this level for the first time and respected. |
11/4 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ten-race maiden who can take a strong hold but he finished well when runner-up over C&D (heavy) last autumn; returns after five months but he's handicapped on his best form and has had only three runs for current yard; needs a close look with hood added. |

9st 9lb |
Sole win in 16 starts was gained in a 6f handicap here (good to firm) 14 months ago, and marginally her best effort since last August came when returning here last month; still early days for her this term and she's not dismissed lightly. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (7) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
C&D winner on stable debut last April (good to firm) but quiet at the end of 2025; fair fifth of 12 at Bath (5.5f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces replaced blinkers) on reappearance; needs to build on that. |
9/1 |
|
5th 8 (4) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won stable debut at Nottingham last April (6f, good to firm) but she's gone the wrong way since and was a well-held eighth in her final two runs last year; has something to prove but she's on a reduced mark and her win came after a similar-length absence; first-time cheekpieces. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Has a better strike-rate on the AW and he's won just once on turf in the last three years; however, he only just lost out over 5f at Catterick (good) in May and has a decent run in him if on song. |
20/1 |
|
4th 10 (12) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Course winner who was fourth of 13 in this last year and was a close second at Catterick last month; however, this inconsistent 9yo has been soundly beaten on his last two starts and has to leave those runs behind. |
16/1 |
|
8th 5 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |

On a long losing sequence and he came in a below-par seventh of 12 in 5.7f handicap here 22 days ago; yet to score on turf too. |
12/1 |
|
7th 2 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Tapeta specialist but he's hung right before finishing a well-held fifth at Wolverhampton (5f) in his last two starts; continues to edge down the weights but he's 0-13 on turf and has not run in this sphere since last May; others preferred. |
11/2 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Four C&D wins (from marks in the 60s); excuses when a closing third over C&D on penultimate start; hung right when three places (over 4l) behind Shalaa Asker subsequently; has won for Kieran O'Neill but needs everything to drop his way. |

Back in better form (over 5f/5.5f) this month, winning AW classified event then solid second (behind a rival who was on the middle leg of hat-trick) in Wetherby handicap; has won over 6f; 0-14 on turf but holds a fighting chance. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Very lightly raced 6yo but he's struggled at big prices in all of his runs including on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in November; now switches to turf but he needs a transformation after six months off. |

9st 9lb |
Versatile sort who won three times last year including at Leicester (1m, good to firm) and over C&D (heavy); now 2lb lower than for her AW win in December but things have not gone well in two runs this season; got hampered by a faller when pulled up at Lingfield on Tuesday but she needs a major revival back at this track; yard also runs Neptune Legend. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |

Won at Bath (5.5f, heavy) and Kempton (6f, AW) last year, but she beat only one rival home at Kempton last month following a 63-day break; has won over 1m so this step back up in trip will be no issue, and she won't be inconvenienced by any rain. |
