9st 1lb |
0-10 for current stable; made the frame three times last May but wasn't in the same form afterwards in 2025; turnaround would give him a good chance off current mark. |

Essentially disappointing for his new stable this season; continues to drop down the weights but others are more appealing for win purposes. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ended last season with some below-par efforts but built upon satisfactory reappearance run when runner-up at Ayr (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and remains 6lb lower than when winning over that C&D last summer. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Record is 4-28; has form figures of 113 at Ayr, the wins gained off current mark and 6lb higher; interesting returned to this course with Thirsk reappearance (faded late in big field) under her belt. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Ran well, half-length second in big field, at Thirsk (6f, good) returned to turf last time; registered sole success (on AW in February) in his only 5f attempt; no mystery if his tally is doubled. |

Just one win from 22 starts but he is unexposed as a sprinter; apprentice takes off a handy 3lb and he holds each-way claims. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Closely matched with Irish Dancer and Street Life on C&D form from two weeks ago when she was short of room late on; all her wins have come at 6f but she's effective at 5f and she should be in the shake-up again. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Won at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) last month and has had excuses there on both starts since (wide draw then slow start); however, the drop back to 5f isn't an obvious positive. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Yard among the winners of late and this mare made a pleasing C&D comeback early in the month, especially given she hit traffic; entitled to have come on for that first run in six months and goes on the shortlist. |
7/2 |
|
4th 8 (9) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Heavy ground excuses her low-key end to 2025 and she ran a series of good races, including a win at Hamilton when first tried in blinkers; whether first time out is the time to catch her remains to be seen but interesting that a tongue-tie goes on for her return. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Two 6f wins on AW and he's continued in reasonable form since the latest of them in October; has a 5lb lower turf mark but he didn't come up with much on grass last summer and this is the first time he's worn headgear. |
11/2 |

C&D winner off 1lb higher last autumn; not beaten far at Newcastle of late, most recently when forced to challenge on the far flank; non-runner when due to wear headgear here last time; no aids this evening. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Got it together since dropped to this trip on the AW this year, winning a couple of 0-55s on Polytrack, latterly off 5lb lower in first-time blinkers; returns to turf 7lb higher than when last seen on it and will need a career-best effort to take this. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has a patchy profile but he's won two of his last four starts including a comfortable success at Lingfield (6f; blinkers added) last Thursday; has a penalty but he was as good as ever last time and he's still unexposed at this trip; interesting contender. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Stayed on well to win a 5f handicap here in November; handicapper on top since but his latest 5f run here was in a better race and he was keeping on late; one to consider. |
7/4 |

4th 7 (9) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Ran on well when justifying favouritism over C&D (Class 6; from 5lb lower) in November; third to Our Absent Friends next time, before being disadvantaged by a wide draw at Wolverhampton (6f) latest; this is potentially asking a bit too much. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner but he's generally struggled this year and was beaten 10l at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month; continues to drop down the weights but he has plenty to prove and is 0-11 on turf. |
14/1 |

11th 14 (12) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

His last win was in October 2024 and he's been well held in most of his runs this year; on reduced mark but this looks tough back up in grade and others are preferred. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Doesn't find winning easy (2-28) but is consistent for the level; third in four of his last five AW starts, including when keeping on behind Mount Ruapehu at Southwell (6f; 14-1) 23 days ago; wide draw isn't ideal for turf return; stablemate of Indy's Angel. |
10/1 |

3rd 9 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Can miss the break and tends to pull hard; still deserves some respect after a recent third over C&D. |
