2nd 1 (4) |
16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Notched a pair of C&D handicap wins at the end of last year and progressed again to score twice over 1m at Carlisle at the beginning of the summer; operating below his best since and has a 5lb penalty for each win so he's not favoured by the conditions of this seller. |
9/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 208y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won a total of four 1m handicaps at Newcastle (AW) and Carlisle between last November and June; broadly not in the same form since; others are more appealing at the weights. |
8/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Went up the weights for his 1m wins on fast ground at Carlisle this summer but back to some form with a 4l fifth on heavy at Beverley 13 days ago; hard to know whether the return of cheekpieces (in which he's 5100) is a good thing or not. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
A dual winner at Wolverhampton in January but drops into a seller after coming in last of six (in first-time cheekpieces) in 1m2f handicap at Salisbury last month; needs to bounce back. |
20/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins have been on AW but he's run well on turf this season including when runner-up at Carlisle (1m) in May and when third over this trip at Windsor (good to firm) last time; continues to edge down the weights and he's in the mix with cheekpieces added. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has gained both wins on AW but that was the case with stablemate Cristo (declared 7:50) until he recently prevailed on turf; has posted inconsistent results since returned to this sphere, however, and isn't a solid option. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Not at the top of his game at Beverley on last two starts but hasn't run badly and before those he won at Carlisle (7f, good to soft); has a handy record here, including a C&D win on soft, and he's a possible player. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (3) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Narrow win in a 7f handicap at Carlisle (good to soft) last month; stretched by 8.4f on heavy ground here 23 days ago; shouldn't be too far away back in trip. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (10) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Versatile ground-wise and comes into this off the back of a narrow success at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) 11 days ago; only 3lb higher but he may be better over a furlong shorter. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple winner but a 7lb rise for winning so well over C&D (good to firm) in July triggered a career-high mark off which he's struggled the last twice; only 1lb lower here and others are preferred again. |
14/1 |
|
5th 5 (1) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple winner but a 7lb rise for winning so well at Pontefract triggered a career-high mark off which he disappointed back there two weeks ago; handles good to soft but slower ground asks questions of him. |
14/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won here (1m, good) in June on first course visit; no match for the winner when second here (1m, good to firm) next time but he returned to winning ways in commanding fashion over today's C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; a 7lb rise takes him to a career-high mark but he has to be respected. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten ten times since his winning debut at Chester (7f, good) 12 months ago; prominent in the betting at Kempton (7f) 12 days ago but there was no upturn in his fortune; still appeals as the type to pop up soon. |
8/1 |
|
9th 5 (12) |
9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Made a winning debut at Chester (7f, good) last September but he's 0-9 since and has form figures of 8805489 in handicaps; now 18lb lower than for his opening mark but he needs a big turnaround back at this trip; eyeshields removed. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won races for two previous yards; started for this stable with a good third at Ayr (1m1f) in May but he's struggled since, including dropped to a claimer last time; has a bit to find on these terms even if bouncing back to the Ayr form. |
13/2 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won races for two previous yards and was a close third on debut for current one (1m1f, good to firm); hasn't kicked on from there, including here two runs back when beating one home over 6f; drops into a claimer but these terms aren't easy. |
8/1 |
|
7th 1 (8) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |

Successful for two previous yards and ran creditably at Ayr on debut for current stable; below par in two starts since but likely found 6f too sharp latest; returns to a more suitable distance. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Needs a bit of luck in his races but he scored at Thirsk in June and both runs since have been solid efforts; should get a good pace to aim at and he can go well despite the widest stall. |
11/2 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |

Third run for this yard when a head winner at Thirsk (7f, good) and was bang there in a big field at York (good to firm) despite a troubled passage; stays 1m and plenty to like. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sole turf success came at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in August; he is now 16lb higher after a productive spell on AW and finished 12l adrift when returned to turf over C&D last month; down the list despite his yard being in fine form. |
33/1 |
|
8th 10 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three 1m wins on Southwell AW this year; has also won on turf but he's 15lb higher than when last seen on grass in the autumn so needs to show his form on this surface can keep pace with the AW improvement. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Record over C&D currently reads 22115112; didn't look to have any excuses in a race run to suit here three weeks ago and it's possible he's reached his ceiling mark now, but he's ultra consistent and looks set to get involved once again. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All 13 wins have come elsewhere but he does have course form and he did so well when going close at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) last week; however, he's now 6lb higher than his September win which might be a step too far. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Rounded off last season with a game win here (1m Class 5, good to soft; from 4lb lower), that his 13th win; struggled in a competitive Sunday Series Handicap at Musselburgh 24 days ago, and it might be a similar story here; stablemate of Pearl Eye and Motawaared. |
40/1 |

12th 8 (12) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
11yo who was as good as ever last season, winning three times, including at Ayr in September when last season; this two-time course winner is not ruled out on his return but there's a suspicion he'll improve for the run. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Maiden who's gone sharply the wrong way for this yard, running poorly in three starts this season; didn't look to see out 1m2f (soft) two months ago and this is easier again but she's hard to recommend. |
33/1 |
|
9th 4 (3) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
12-race maiden who ended last season on a low note and was also well beaten on first two outings this year (7f/1m); moves up in trip with a lot to prove. |
33/1 |
|
10th 11 (9) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
8st 5lb |
Finished close up in 7f events on the AW for previous trainer but two handicap runs either side of a break were disappointing and her stamina will be under pressure back on this track. |
25/1 |
