2nd 2 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Progressive 4yo who made the breakthrough when forging clear at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) and he followed up under a penalty at Leicester 19 days ago; up another 4lb but he's on a roll and is still relatively lightly raced; big player. |
15/8 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Confirmed earlier promise when readily getting off the mark in 7f Doncaster handicap a week ago; hiked up 9lb but remains low mileage and merits serious consideration for his in-form stable. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
She's well handicapped on 2024 2yo form; last year wasn't devoid of spark but it was an underwhelming campaign and she has to raise her game. |
14/1 |
|
4 (7) |
7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
One of her two novice wins last season came here; signs of rediscovering some form when a 3l third at Doncaster (7f) on what proved to be her final run for the Quinns (same owners) but then only fourth of six at Newmarket, failing to convince stamina-wise over 1m. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
None too consistent for current stable and his best efforts in Britain have been on AW; ideally suited by testing ground when trained in France so rain would aid his cause. |

3rd 8 (9) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Handicapper hit him hard after he made it 2-2 at Leicester off 7lb lower last month and he's struggled in two runs since; hit and miss now and, while it's possible he'll bounce back, others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
8th 4 (10) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
6yo who hit a personal best with his emphatic win at Leicester (6f, good) last month but he flopped off this revised mark there 12 days later; has won at Ripon but he's not easy to predict and needs to bounce back again after that last run. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Struggled on first three starts for this yard last autumn but back to form with a bang when accounting for the reopposing Jonny Concrete and 11 others at Hamilton (6f, good) last Sunday; only scraped home by a short head so she may struggle to confirm that narrow superiority over Iain Jardine's charge on the revised terms. |
10/1 |
|
1st 7 (9) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Struggled in three runs after joining from David O'Meara last autumn and resumes from five months off 2lb above her last winning mark; bit to overcome against some in-form, race-fit rivals. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won over C&D off this mark last summer but does most racing now over further and wants a good test at this trip; said to have run flat last time but does have his good and bad days now for a yard responsible for two others; 2-4 for Kaiya Fraser. |
12/1 |
|
8th 9 (6) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January and close fourth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February before winning over this C&D (good) a fortnight ago; it was a tight finish but he's gone up just 2lb; again in calculations. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won a 6f Ripon maiden last June and stays 7f; 0-13 in handicaps, however, and others present stronger cases despite his career-low mark. |
14/1 |
|
5th 8 (4) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won a C&D maiden (good) last June on his second start for Tim Easterby; returned after a lengthy absence with a creditable fifth here (6f, good to soft) last month and ran another solid race at Pontefract last time; still looks on a workable mark and he shouldn't be far away. |

9st 4lb |
AW scorer in Ireland; has made the frame in four of his five starts for current yard, gelded prior to fourth at Musselburgh (7f) on reappearance latest; in the mix. |
13/2 |
|
4th 6 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |

7f maiden win at Dundalk when trained by Kevin Coleman; placed on three of four starts for Katie Scott last August/September, including over C&D (good to soft); has had wind surgery ahead of this first start for seven months. |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Smooth win at Newcastle (7f) in December and now rated 2lb lower; that is a result of beating just one horse home in four subsequent starts; jury out for now. |
14/1 |

9th 4 (9) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Justified favouritism over C&D in December; not in anything like the same form, beating a total of just one rival, in three outings since. |
