13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two good runs for new stable this season, the latter a third of 17 at York (1m4f, good) last month; should be fine back at 2m and can cope with ground slower than good; high on the list. |
6/1 |

3rd 9 (8) |
13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
No win since May 2024 when trained by Sir Michael Stoute (below form last year for Kevin Ryan) but second of 14 off almost a career-low mark at Musselburgh (1m4f, good; under Zak Wheatley) one month ago was easily his most competitive show since; back up 2lb and needs to build on that revival. |
13/2 |

2nd 5 (4) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
No win since May 2024 when trained by Sir Michael Stoute; below form last year for Kevin Ryan, followed by a 22,000gns sale in October; he's 23lb below his peak mark but the tide needs to turn. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Both wins on the AW but runner-up in five of her seven races on the grass, the last two over C&D; clearly on a high enough mark but looks sure to give her running. |
13/8 |
|
2nd 5 (2) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Dual AW winner (1m/1m4f); runner-up twice since upped to 2m, returned to turf and fitted with cheekpieces last month, more recently behind a progressive rival here (good; also suited by good to soft); good chance. |
7/2 |

2nd 10 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Both wins have been on AW (latest in March) and her only run at this track did not go well, when favourite over 1m6f on heavy on final start last term; close second with first-time cheekpieces at Goodwood (2m, good) on latest outing, however, is a notable positive. |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who won at Ayr (1m7f, good to firm) in May and at Musselburgh (2m, good) the following month; down the field at the latter track last month but bounced back to form with a good second of eight at Haydock (1m6f, heavy) a week ago, pulling clear of the rest with the winner who was since won again; may not have his own way in front but has to be respected; due to be 2lb higher. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 7 (4) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Registered two unchallenged wins from the front (around 2m, good to firm/good) on his first and third starts of the year; can probably be forgiven his latest effort over 2m2f ten days ago and he remains feasibly treated; considered. |
8/1 |
|
7th 10 (11) |
25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Easily made all here (2m, good) in June and he's run well in third on his last two starts, most recently behind Inappropriate here (2m, good); could give it a good go from the front but this is warmer than he's used to. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
1-20 under rules and hasn't set the world alight since joining this yard; didn't settle when fifth of nine over C&D eight days ago and probably best watched despite a 4lb drop. |
6/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Sole success came in a Kempton AW handicap in July last year when trained by Tom Ward; had an unsuccessful stint over hurdles this year for current yard, and well held in a couple of 2m handicaps since; drops back in trip on AW return and best watched for now. |
25/1 |

10th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Pulled up in successive handicap hurdles before beaten about 11l in a 2m handicap at Chester; has a bit to prove, but encouraging that best Flat form has been on this surface. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made all twice last season, latterly in good style over 1m6f here (heavy) in September; just 1lb higher today after lesser shows this term but the latest was a step back in the right direction and he stays 2m; case can be made. |
6/1 |

4th 2 (8) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Made all in a big field here (2m) last July and he's on a handy mark on last season's best efforts; however, he's been well beaten on both outings this year and needs to turn things around. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Stout stayer who was placed over C&D (good) in September and opened his account at Pontefract (2m2f, soft) the following month; made a low-key reappearance last month but has possibilities if that run brought him on. |
10/1 |
|
4th 6 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Improved as his stamina was drawn out last season, winning over 2m2f here in October (soft); below par on extremely deep ground at Nottingham when last seen 211 days ago but that is not the run to judge him on; unlikely he has reached his ceiling and he's an interesting contender. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner who did well throughout five-race campaign last season, most notably when gamely winning this race; 5lb higher today but much more of a worry is that he needs to bounce back from this season's two poor runs on turf. |
16/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who did well during five-race campaign last season, most notably when gamely winning Northumberland Vase at Newcastle (2m, AW); also suited by good to soft turf but needs to bounce back from last month's disappointing reappearance run. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Struggled in three starts in May/June and has left Jennie Candlish since he was down the field over hurdles at Cartmel in June; makes his stable debut having dropped 2lb below his last Flat winning mark but he was well beaten on his only previous start on the AW. |
14/1 |
|
9th 3 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Didn't set the world alight in his three handicap hurdles (won his two previous hurdle starts); those handicaps were at up to 2m1f and he's much more of a stayer on the Flat, but his two Flat runs at Chester (where he won last season) this term were disappointing; tongue tied first time. |
14/1 |
|
8th 3 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Soundly beaten in last month's Chester Plate (2m2f) but this race is easier and he's now only 1lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last summer; versatile regarding ground; contender if back on song. |

10th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Six AW wins include two here and it was at this venue where he was headed late on over C&D a month ago; he did have the run of things up front that day, though. |
16/1 |

3rd 3 (7) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with C&D win in January but his more recent form is far less encouraging, last of nine at Chester (2m) last time; others are preferred. |
