20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Lacked consistency since handicapping but having Jack Callan taking over won't hurt down 2lb and this mark should be within range; one to consider. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ran well at Newmarket last time considering he did a bit too much up front over 6f; gained his 2yo win over 5f and the return to this trip looks ideal; respected off unaltered mark. |
7/2 |

3rd 7 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won Beverley maiden (5f, soft) in September; not much between him and Akabusi on an AW run later but he never reached a challenging position on his Bath return (50-1) in April and some weight off his back wouldn't go amiss; visor refitted. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Ideally suited by an easy 6f or stiff 5f and knows how to win; turned in a solid effort at his beloved Sandown last weekend and remains reliable despite his age, but there's not much room for manoeuvre off this mark. |
5/1 |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Multiple winner but went up 6lb for his 2l win at Haydock and that counted when fifth at Catterick; however, he does have a very solid record here. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has been a superb servant, winning 16 of his 99 starts, including three this year; comfortable scorer at Haydock (6f, good to firm) latest, for which he has gone up 6lb; has won over C&D and looks a player again. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Took advantage of a sliding mark on her return to turf when winning a soft-ground 0-65 off 3lb lower ten days ago; remains on a fair mark now back in form but this is tougher and she's having a first run over 5f in the best part of a year. |
4/1 |

1st 4 (8) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win on turf came on good to firm at Pontefract last August off 4lb higher; had to switch for a run and couldn't finish strongly enough when last of six at Wolverhampton 36 days ago but shaped as if in form; however, others make a bit more appeal. |
12/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has claims on this winter's best and she didn't get a clear shot at it over C&D when last seen nine weeks ago; others still appeal more for win purposes. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
A slow start did for him in the Epsom Dash last time and this is less competitive over a stiffer 5f; current mark should be within range if he gets away better and finds the race setting up for him. |
7/2 |
|
7th 15 (6) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Looked ahead of his mark when returned to 5f at Windsor (good to firm) in May, doing well to overcome a blocked passage, and a subsequent third behind Wedonttelllies at Goodwood (5f, good) after a slow start was creditable; has possibilities if he doesn't give himself too much to do. |
10/1 |

3rd 8 (4) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Overcame traffic issues to get up near the finish in Windsor handicap (5f, good to firm) last time, opening his account; may build on that success and show further improvement; enters calculations. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
His wins have come from the front in the summer, including this time last year on his second run back; turned in a satisfactory comeback at Windsor, when losing a shoe, and is entitled to have come on for that first start in seven months; shortlisted. |
7/2 |

5th 8 (6) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Scored at Lingfield (5f, AW) last June and signed off with a good third of ten in 5f Yarmouth handicap in October; in the mix if fully tuned up for his seasonal return. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
21st Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Bolted up at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in June but hit with a 10lb rise and he has found it tougher since; this looks more manageable but best efforts on fast ground and conditions are a query here. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Far from exposed, having been picked up from Roger Varian for 20,000gns, but may not be the easiest and will need to get away better; hung left last time (only has daylight on that side from stall 7) and goes in first-time cheekpieces/tongue-tie. |
16/1 |
|
8th 1 (12) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
14-1 winner on Lingfield debut (6f, AW) for Roger Varian last June; beaten around 4l in two subsequent runs, including on stable debut in March, but it's still early days and he looks on a workable mark in his first handicap; needs watching in market on this drop in trip. |
8/1 |
|
2 (5) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two solid efforts for Roger Varian last summer, winning a 6f maiden at Lingfield (AW) on debut before finishing third under a penalty at Doncaster (6f, good to firm); not so good on his stable debut at Lingfield last month (after nine months off) but he looks to be on a fair mark for his handicap debut. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Back to his best since joining his current yard but he's shot up the weights and there have been some costly defeats to go with two AW wins; now 0-17 on turf, having pulled hard in a messy Bath affair last time, and will need a career-best effort to take this. |
5/1 |
|
4th 2 (3) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Back on the up for Adam Kirby this spring, winning at Southwell (6f, AW) and Lingfield (5f, AW) as well as three second-place finishes; 0-16 on turf but effective on fast ground and this intermediate trip could be ideal. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Bolted up on his stable debut at Southwell in March (6f); dropped to 5f for his last two starts, picked off late at Catterick (good ground) before a ready win on the AW track here nine days ago; another 7lb higher mark to contend with but unlikely he has reached his ceiling just yet. |
