11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 32y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Thriving for his new stable and gained a third success in 1m4f Chester handicap in June; backed that up with a good second of seven in 2m handicap there since; big player off the same mark here. |
9/4 |

2nd 4 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has won three of his last four and doesn't win by far so might still be ahead of the game mark-wise; stays 1m6f well so this far shouldn't be an issue, nor the track as his win two weeks ago was here (1m4f). |
11/4 |

1st 8 (12) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Running well since sent beyond 1m4f and he took those form figures to 2121 when landing small-field Hamilton handicap (1m5f, good to firm) 17 days ago; probably acts on softer than good and he can't be ignored in current mood, despite the drop back down in trip, for last year's winning yard. |

24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Signed off for David O'Meara with 1m4f handicap success at Ripon in June; changed hands for 36,000gns subsequently and not out of things for his new yard with tongue-tie added. |

1st 1 (3) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Three wins over 1m2f (good/good to firm) last season; only 1lb higher than for his last success but he hasn't been in peak form in four starts this term; still unexposed at this trip but he needs to raise his game. |

3rd 1 (4) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins, all over 1m2f, last season (good/good to firm; two here); best run this term when second of four at Hamilton last time (1m5f, good to firm); a possible. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 32y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Scored at Newcastle (1m4f) in March but largely below form since, last of four in 1m4f handicap at Thirsk ten days ago; this course winner needs to take a step forward in refitted blinkers. |
12/1 |

4th 1 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Exposed 6yo who concedes weight to 3yo rivals but brings positives, being the only C&D scorer in the field and a winner off 2lb higher in most recent attempt in this grade. |
11/2 |
|
5th 4 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Strike-rate of 7-50; won off this mark in March but well beaten in three of his four subsequent runs and has become hard to predict. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Edging back down the weights and now 3lb higher than for the latest of two wins over 1m6f last September; wore cheekpieces in a void race last month, but this is effectively his first start in them; shortlisted. |
8/1 |
|
7 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Has three wins on turf but has gone off the boil on his last two starts; swaps a visor for first-time cheekpieces on AW debut; not out of this but new headgear needs to have an impact. |
6/1 |
