3rd 2 (8) |
12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Back to his best this year, winning three times from the front, latterly from the same stall over C&D in July; did it easily that day but finds himself 9lb higher as a result, which will test him back from a couple of months off. |
4/1 |

4th 1 (2) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Made all twice in a row this spring (including over C&D on good to firm) and bounced back from his third of six at Yarmouth for another front-running win at Lingfield (5f, AW) last Monday; had plenty in hand last time and he's 5lb well in under a 5lb penalty; could prove tough to catch. |
6/5 |

1st 3 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has won on the AW but off a much lower mark and all his best efforts have come on turf, including two wins in the spring; looked like the handicapper may have caught up again when third to Michaela's Boy last time and he's drawn wide today. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Thriving of late and she cosily made it two wins from her last three starts in ten-runner handicap at Doncaster (5f, good) 13 days ago; up 3lb but this C&D scorer seems sure to be on the premises again with promising 5lb claimer Conor Whiteley up again. |

1st 1 (6) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month and beaten only 1l when fourth of seven off this mark at Newmarket (5f, good) subsequently; has run well on good to soft ground; could again be thereabouts. |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Good efforts on his last three starts, not quite able to peg back Law Of Average's advantage when second at Bath four weeks ago (5f, firm); 2lb better off today and he should give his running again. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Without a win since his debut at Yarmouth in April 2024 but he's posted three solid efforts since returning from an 85-day break, including in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Wolverhampton eight days ago; switches back to turf with good claims. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to win on AW (0-7) and hasn't won anywhere since scoring on debut at Yarmouth (5f maiden) in April 2024; thereabouts lately, including when no extra close home over C&D (5-1) 32 days ago; newly applied cheekpieces are worth a go. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Quirky customer with two C&D wins on his record and now 6lb lower than for last July's success; running himself into form this year but his stable look to hold stronger claims elsewhere. |
12/1 |
|
4th 6 (6) |
27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Does plenty wrong during his races but it hasn't stopped him from winning seven times, two of them over C&D; running himself back into form this year but others appeal more. |
12/1 |
|
4th 3 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
No stranger to the Ayr winners' enclosure, winning five at this track (5f-7f), including this race two years ago; has struggled for form in two 5f spins at Musselburgh this year, which makes him hard to fancy; on the plus side, the handicapper is beginning to give him a chance. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Prevailed by half a length in similarly big field at York (5.4f, good to soft; Class 4) two weekends ago, taking record to 9-39; yard has landed this race for the last two years; respected back down in grade, even with 5lb penalty. |
3/1 |
|
1st 19 (2) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 89y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
The bulk of his winning has been done on AW and although he went close behind Little Mi Mi at Hamilton last month, he looks vulnerable in this field. |
20/1 |
|
6th 12 (6) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Most wins on the AW but able on turf and stayed on well for second here 20 days ago (good; might not prefer it softer); this is a better race but he'll appreciate chasing a strong pace if ground conditions are suitable; 2lb out of the weights. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Thirsk (6f, good) in June on penultimate run for Julie Camacho and has run well on both starts for this stable, most recently a close fourth at Chester (5f, heavy); could again be thereabouts. |
14/1 |

4th 10 (5) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Winner at Thirsk in June (6f, good) for Julie Camacho; bought for 5,000gns in August and decent run on stable debut when sixth of 21 at York (5.5f, good to soft); each-way chance. |
10/1 |
|
6th 12 (4) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 89y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hit and miss for Julie Camacho; won a 6f handicap at Thirsk on his penultimate start before a midfield finish at Glorious Goodwood; sold for 5,000gns last month and new yard try him in new headgear. |
