13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Went close at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Chepstow (1m) before getting off the mark (13th attempt) in a classified event at Wolverhampton last Tuesday; pulled 5l clear with his main market rival in that race and he hit a personal best with that brave success; key player. |

1st 4 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

0-12 but he hit the frame twice in similar races over C&D in March; better form when beaten a neck into second at Chepstow (1m, soft) last month; set to go well once again. |

11-race maiden but has gone close in classified events at Wolverhampton (8.5, AW) on his last two starts; needs to convert that form to handicaps on turf. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Patchy for Michael Dods last year before being sold for 4,000gns; stays further and wants a good test at this trip; solid comeback from six months off over C&D (soft) nine days ago and he is entitled to improve. |
4/1 |

3rd 1 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Scored for Michael Dods at Ripon (1m2f, good) last July off 5lb higher; sold to join current yard for 4,000gns in October; fifth of 12 on stable debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in December; unraced since but on a decent mark. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Can win a race and the ground was soft when beaten a shade under 4l in a 1m handicap at Chepstow most recently (first-time tongue-tie); thereabouts. |
7/2 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden but has shown he can find a race; best effort was when beaten a nose at Kempton (1m, AW) in January and if can replicate that form on turf then he comes into the equation; has left Pat Phelan since his last run in March; sports a first-time tongue-tie and has to be of interest for new yard. |
5/1 |

5th 3 (6) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden but he finished well to go very close over C&D (11-2) in January; only 1lb higher after a short break and he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Infrequent winner; did score over C&D last July off a 3lb higher mark though and his latest Ffos Las second (7.3f, good) was a sound run; each-way shout. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |

Infrequent winner who was again turned over as favourite when never happy behind Prince Ali last time; wants a good test over this trip these days and others make greater appeal. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
23-race maiden when she turned up for a handicap at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago but she won that seven-runner race, always prominent; that was a clear career best and it's striking that it was her first race at short of 6f; big player if the form is backed up. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Goes well here but hasn't won in two years and become expensive to follow, finishing a beaten-favourite in two runs back; soft ground may have been behind his latest effort but he was withdrawn twice in May on account of good to firm, which is a worry. |
6/1 |

7th 2 (4) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

His losing run goes back to July 2024 and his mark has plummeted since but he could build on April's fifth at Nottingham; not discounted. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Winless since 2022 and nothing like as good now; failed to build significantly on reappearance when sixth of ten over 1m at Chepstow (good) last month and the losing run seems likely to continue |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Winless since 2022 and nothing like as good now; entitled to have needed his C&D comeback at his age nine days ago after a lengthy layoff but finished well held. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Sole success came in March 2024 when trained by Kieran Cotter in Ireland; has lost his way this year and makes his British/stable debut; probably best watched for now. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |

No success since Cork (7f, heavy) in March 2024; continues to drop in the ratings, and is now 20lb lower than his winning mark; two runs this term not exactly persuasive; a top apprentice booked. |
