6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Sometimes races too freely, including when last seen, but otherwise a progressive 7f filly and her form includes good efforts in difficult circumstances at two major festivals last August; remains of interest. |

Performed well, despite things not going totally smoothly, in warm 7f handicaps at Glorious Goodwood (went very close) and the York Ebor festival last month; still open to further progress; major player. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Last year's Golden Mile win at Goodwood (strong record there) shows he's still smart on his day; respectable return to action when fifth in good conditions race over 7f here three weeks ago but he's gained the vast majority of his ten career wins on slower ground than he's likely to encounter this afternoon. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Won for the first time since going handicapping at Epsom in July (7f, good) and was subsequently placed at Goodwood (7f, good to soft) and back at Epsom (7f, good); cheekpieces now tried and on a career high mark (3lb higher than last time); contender. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |

Made it 3-6 when landing a C&D handicap (good) last month and he found more progress when front-running third in big field at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to soft); only 1lb higher on this drop back in grade and he's an interesting contender. |

9st 11lb |
AW winner (5f) for Karl Burke as a 2yo; ran well over C&D on last season's reappearance and his fourth in a big field at York on his handicap debut came off a 3lb higher mark; two subsequent efforts are excusable (Listed company and then 7f on slow ground); sold for 32,000gns in October; unexposed as a sprinter and now drops in class; stable also runs Sixtygeesbaby. |

5th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Speedily bred 3yo who has fairly useful form over sprint trips on home soil; came up short in French Listed event most recently; not certain to see out this stiff 7f. |

Best form at 7f on good/firmer; completed a hat-trick last summer and ran creditably in big field at Newmarket in the first of his two starts this term; chance may depend on the actions of the weather, however. |

Best form at 7f on good/firmer; completed a hat-trick last summer and could be set for further success this term, having performed encouragingly (third of 18) at Newmarket on reappearance; one to consider. |

Went close at Musselburgh (7f, good) last time, showing he retains full ability aged eight; dual winner at Goodwood and may remain competitive; gained last three wins on soft ground. |
8/1 |

2nd 2 (2) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Well beaten on reappearance at Newcastle (6f, AW) 30 days ago and needs to be an entirely different proposition today; however, he's on a competitive mark on last season's best efforts and his C&D form figures read 123, with all three of those runs coming in cheekpieces (which go back on). |

9st 7lb |
Finally got the job done in Windsor contest (1m, good to firm) last week and did it comfortably, opening his account at the 18th attempt; great chance under a penalty, provided he's in the same form back down in trip; due to go up 4lb in future. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Suited by good/firmer; has quickly found his form this season for new yard and ran creditably in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m) last Saturday when attempting to follow up his Beverley success (7.5f); may do better still. |
9/1 |
|
5th 14 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who was having only his second start for this yard when clinging on over the extended 7f at Beverley (good to firm) nine days ago; only raised 3lb but this is a step up from that Class 4 and his draw isn't ideal for one who usually races close to the pace. |

Record of 0-9 for current stable but he has made the frame in last three attempts over 7f; could go well returned to this distance with Newbury reappearance (6f) under his belt. |

12th 11 (16) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

String of runs last summer (6f-7f) suggested he was ahead of his mark but he often ran into trouble and/or got going too late; no surprise at all were he to take this back from a break but he is not one for the faint of heart. |

Best form for Andrew Balding came on turf, including wins at Brighton (6f, good to firm) and Epsom (7f, good to soft) last year; makes stable debut after 190 days off having changed hands for 50,000gns in October; market informative. |

0-16 since winning in June 2023 on his second start but short-headed at Thirsk (7f, good) last month on his stable and seasonal debut and posted another good second at Haydock (7f, good) last Saturday; he's on the shortlist. |

Didn't progress for Richard Hannon but, having dropped in the weights, he went desperately close to making a winning debut for Tim Easterby three weeks ago, staying on strongly at Thirsk (7f, good); 1lb higher today but he attained a BHA rating of 106 in his pomp; contender. |
