9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Six-time winner, including over C&D last July (good to soft); well suited by give in the ground, so after two fair runs this season, is one with a chance. |
8/1 |
|
5th 11 (4) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
4-27 at Hamilton, which has dominated his itinerary but he also has two wins elsewhere; made a respectable return to Flat over C&D two weeks ago under Lexie Clarkson and could build on that to get seriously involved. |
16/1 |

4th 6 (2) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Four-time course winner, most recently over today's trip (good to soft) in September; ended 2025 with two below-par hurdle runs, though, and would appeal more on ground slower than good. |

10st 2lb |
Runner-up three consecutive times in recent weeks, perhaps most notably when losing out only by a head in higher-grade company at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) two starts ago; also suited by this C&D; likely contender. |
7/2 |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Gained her sole success at Ayr (1m5f) last July and she's back in very good form, a strong-travelling second of ten in 1m3f Carlisle handicap 13 days ago; a likely player nudged up 1lb. |

Ex-Kevin Ryan; won a 1m AW handicap in March 2025; stays 1m2f but below-par when tried over further; bit to prove. |
40/1 |
|
12th 11 (3) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Didn't progress as may have been expected following a 1m win at Southwell last March; dropped away to finish eighth of the nine runners on last month's stable debut at Newcastle (1m); enough to prove for now. |
33/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Won at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last March and runner-up at Ayr in September on final run for Kevin Ryan; sold for 10,000GBP in October; lacks a recent outing but is not ruled out on his stable debut. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-14 overall but has performed respectably for new stable this year, most recently when fourth at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) last month; continues to edge down the weights and ought to be suited by the reduced emphasis on stamina here; not out of this. |
13/2 |
|
4th 3 (1) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |

Maiden; some fair runs on the Flat this year, notably when third at Ripon last time (1m4f, good); first run on soft ground. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Went close more than once for Harry Charlton but left that yard an eight-race maiden; hasn't threatened to put that right in four runs for new stable but went with a bit more promise when sixth of 11 over 1m3f at Hamilton 11 days ago, keeping on from off the pace after missing the break again; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Back to the mark off which he won at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last August; finished third in his first two runs this year but not at the same level on his last two starts; drops in trip/grade and could bounce back to form. |
6/1 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
1m3f win at Carlisle (good to firm) last summer; began his 2026 campaign with two solid efforts but his form dipped at Carlisle 24 days ago (Class 5; sent off favourite); has to enter calculations at this modest level. |
11/4 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner last August (good to firm) who was subsequently runner-up at Hamilton (1m4f, soft); two fair runs this time, latest over C&D; chance. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who made it 3-6 in 1m4f handicaps when justifying favouritism at Pontefract (1m4f, good) two weeks ago; up 4lb but that was a comfortable success and he's open to more progress at this trip; key player. |
2/1 |
|
1st 1 (6) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not at his best in a 0-70 at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago, but likely to do better especially if the ground continues to dry out, with his two wins last year (including one over C&D) coming on good to firm; big player down in grade. |
3/1 |

6th 12 (8) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |

Won twice over 1m4f on good to firm last season; began the season with a good second at Pontefract last month (1m4f, good to soft) and could go well if coping with this softer ground. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
1m3f/1m4f wins at a lowly level and it was a modest race in which she ran second on jumps debut at Cartmel (good; jumping lacked fluency); others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won a Pontefract handicap on Flat in April 2025 (1m4f, good; modest form); hasn't run as well since, including on both starts this year following a 380-day break; hurdles debut. |
25/1 |

9st 12lb |
Has won six races here, from 7.5f to 1m4f, the latest last August (1m4f, good to firm); creditable third here in May (8.5f, good) but below-par last two runs; could go well. |
11/1 |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |

Loves it here and he's fine from this trip up to 1m4f; placed over the extended 1m here in May before finding the ground too slow at Carlisle; a wide draw isn't ideal, though. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (3) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
All six wins in Britain have been at Beverley, the latest over 7.5f last August (good); has also won at up to 1m4f there so has a chance following good run last time; soft ground a slight concern. |

Won a Navan handicap for Joseph O'Brien last spring but suffered a succession of fairly hefty defeats on the Flat and over hurdles for this yard, including when beaten nearly 20l over C&D last month when back from a nine-week break; visor given a whirl. |
20/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
