2nd 4 (3) |
13th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Has his quirks but has won three times in today's headgear combination on turf this season (1m1f-1m2f); not at best at Redcar (1m2f) ten days ago but should be fine back on Tapeta and could plausibly still have untapped potential over 1m4f. |
11/2 |

6th 5 (9) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Not straightforward but it hasn't prevented him notching three wins this season, the latest at Hamilton over 1m1f on heavy (has also won on good to firm) 13 days ago; the runner-up went one better at Ayr earlier this week so his mark is likely still workable if he keeps his quirks in check. |

20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 5 |

Close second twice in May then registered two wins in June; subsequent record is less solid but he ran well under Billy Loughnane on penultimate start; not dismissed. |

3rd 5 (5) |
17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won over 1m4f at Leicester (good to firm) in July and 1m6f at Southwell (AW) in August; improved again when beaten a neck at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft) last month and perhaps he simply failed to stay when a remote fourth over 2m back at Southwell a fortnight ago; capable of bouncing back. |
3/1 |

4th 3 (2) |
3rd Oct 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Previous best form came on his sole start here, when making all in August on his penultimate start; took it up another notch when beaten a neck at Ffos Las (also 1m6f, soft) 12 days ago; 2lb higher but this new trip promises to suit and he's a must for the shortlist. |
6/4 |

2nd 9 (2) |
21st Sep 2026 Heavy 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Bids for hat-trick after making all in smallish fields at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) and Southwell (1m6f, AW) this summer; could plausibly still have more improvement to come but moves up from Class 6 today and is not sure to be ideally suited by the slower ground. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Inclined to pull hard in early runs and slow starts have crept in more recently; kept on well when a close third in Leicester handicap (1m2f, good) in June, but he was tailed off at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last time and is now 0-9; others preferred. |
6/1 |

6th 6 (7) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Inclined to pull hard in early runs and has got into the habit of blowing the start lately; that's what's cost him the past twice and this mark is surely within range under Oisin Murphy (0-3 for the yard) if it falls right now switched to a visor. |
7/2 |

15th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Maiden; ran one of his best races when length third to Bradbury at Leicester last time (1m2f, good) when wearing today's headgear combination; worth considering. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His two wins came over 1m2f at Beverley in June and Redcar (made all in first-time cheekpieces) in July; also made the running on last three outings and hasn't fared so well off higher marks but C&D fourth last time suggested he can still have a say. |
10/1 |

4th 6 (12) |
7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark when winning at Beverley in June and he followed up in first-time cheekpieces at Redcar (1m2f; good to firm; made all); only 2lb higher than for that last success and he had an excuse when upped to 1m4f at Leicester last month; has wide draw back on AW but he's a player if he can bounce back on this drop back in trip; blinkers removed and cheekpieces return. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
0-7 but she ran her best race in handicaps when fifth of 15 (second on her side) at Redcar (7f, good) five weeks ago; dropped 2lb and shouldn't be understimated. |
16/1 |

5th 17 (4) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
She has gone backwards from a promising debut at Carlisle (only run on soft) last September, including when beaten 15l in cheekpieces (removed) over 1m2f three months ago; subsequent break will have needed to steady the ship. |
33/1 |

6th 3 (1) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Easily her best run was when second on debut (6f, soft) and has finished well behind in her two handicaps (1m); the cheekpieces need to make a difference. |
