2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

He has run some solid races in sprint handicaps this season, including second over 5f at Haydock (heavy; acts on firm) off this mark last weekend; also placed twice here this year; in the mix. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Course winner as 2yo; useful type who is 2lb lower than for his Ayr win (6f, good) in July but he hasn't been in the same form of late and it's hard to argue that a return to form is imminent. |

Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f) in July but well below par both runs since and he failed to beat a rival in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last time; needs to take a major step forward. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Ex-French; took time to acclimatise and was down the field in the Gold Cup last autumn but of more interest now, having been quite impressive at Goodwood (6f, soft) in June and seriously hampered at the Curragh (6f, yielding) last week on second run back from a break; Oisin Murphy up for the first time; likely to be suited by this thorough test and has a solid chance. |

Former French Listed winner scored for this yard in soft-ground Goodwood handicap in June and didn't run badly over same C&D last month, having travelled well; any rain would help his cause. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Got up in the final strides over 5f here (good to firm) three weeks ago on his fourth start for this yard; he could have more to offer for this stable, especially back up in trip with his Irish wins having come at 7.5f/7f; respected up 4lb for last time. |
100/30 |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Short-headed on stable/seasonal debut at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in April; excuses at Newmarket (7f, good) next time and he returned to form when fourth of 14 at Thirsk (6f, good); one to consider back down in grade. |
6/1 |

4th 11 (7) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Well beaten at Newmarket last month (7f, good; has won at that trip in the past) but he failed to settle and didn't look at home on the track; prior to that he kept on strongly to go very close at Musselburgh (5f, soft) on his stable debut and he remains one to be interested in. |

9st 0lb |
Gained a deserved second success of 2026 (after four second placings) over C&D in September; not ideally drawn when 11th of 16 in 7f Newbury handicap last week so not out of things here. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Dug deep to justify strong market support in 6f Ripon handicap (soft; has also won on good to firm) 18 days ago; below par on his previous attempt over 7f but the way he stuck on at Ripon suggests this sort of trip could be within range. |
10/1 |

Thirsk winner (6f, good; from 6lb lower) in April; various near misses since, including at Newmarket and York, and as recently as last week at Thirsk (beaten a head); high draw is helpful, the prospect of rain-softened ground less so; still rates a player. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
On a long losing sequence but he got right back on track in a refitted visor with second of 12 in 6f handicap at Hamilton last month; up 2lb but that form is proving strong and he can go well again in retained headgear. |
13/2 |

2nd 4 (13) |

Sole win from 18 starts came on his debut in a 5f maiden on soft ground in May 2024 but he has posted some good efforts since; midfield finishes in three starts this year, including when drawn wide at York over 7f on his last two outings; drops back in trip and down in grade with the visor returning. |

8yo who can be in and out but he won at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in April and has run well in defeat on his last two starts, at Epsom (6f, soft) and Newcastle (6f, AW); he was a close second of 14 last time and this C&D winner can be in the mix if he's once more on a going day. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Encouraging start for this yard with two fifth-place finishes at Leicester and York (also 6f) in the spring but his last two starts haven't been as promising; nicely treated and he does have form here so a revival isn't out of the question. |

Has drawn a blank since soft-ground maiden success in Ireland as a 2yo; not far away on occasions this year, including third of six at Haydock (5f, soft) in first-time blinkers (retained) 26 days ago, but this a tough race in which to snap his losing sequence. |

Won soft-ground maiden in Ireland as a 2yo; winless since but he hasn't been far away in some good 5f handicaps this year, including over this C&D (good to soft) in August; a subsequent defeat at Beverley may have come too soon and he should be competitive in this company; now blinkered. |

Coped well with the drop to 5f when winning the Gosforth Park Cup on Newcastle AW in June; respectable fifth in a Beverley Listed event (5f, heavy) 13 days ago, albeit without any excuses; this trip should be fine and he handles all ground; each-way shout back in a handicap. |

Group 3 win on soft ground in Germany in 2024; chequered history since but the drop to 5f and fitting of a tongue-tie sparked a transformation at Newcastle in June, winning the Gosforth Park Cup in game fashion; not certain to be in the same form again but he won't be far away if he is. |

Won this race in 2023 (soft ground) off a 9lb higher mark; it's generally been tough going for him this year but he retains ability and it doesn't require a huge leap of faith to see him go close; he could do with being more alert at the stalls though. |
