27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Has been running well, and winning, over hurdles so fitness won't be an issue on this return to Flat action and has the form to feature off this mark; versatile ground-wise and there are no stamina issues. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Ended last season in excellent form, winning twice at Market Rasen (2m/2m2f, good), and his second at Market Rasen (2m, good) 12 days ago was another good effort; should be fine over this longer trip; respected. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |

Ended last season in excellent form, winning twice here (2m/2m2f) on good ground, and is probably still on a workable mark; big chance. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has won three of his last four and doesn't win by far so might still be ahead of the game mark-wise; stays 1m6f well so this far shouldn't be an issue, nor the track as his win two weeks ago was here (1m4f). |
11/4 |

1st 8 (12) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Running well since sent beyond 1m4f and he took those form figures to 2121 when landing small-field Hamilton handicap (1m5f, good to firm) 17 days ago; probably acts on softer than good and he can't be ignored in current mood, despite the drop back down in trip, for last year's winning yard. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His sole win came back in June 2024 but he often runs well and was third of seven at Chester (2m, good) four weeks ago on his second stable start; might be in with an each-way shout. |
16/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Much respected on his form for Alan King, for all that he was 1-22 for that yard; following a 30,000gns sale he ran okay over C&D on last month's stable debut, but no more than that. |
10/1 |

5th 1 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Sole win (22 races) was on AW in June 2024; five seconds on turf and bang there on AW (1m3f/1m4f) on last two starts before 30,000gns sale (left Alan King) in April, but this is the first time he's gone beyond that on Flat. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Edging down the weights and the return to a more galloping track could help, but his claims aren't compelling based on what he's shown at Chester this year on his three starts for a new yard. |
20/1 |
|
4th 1 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won a small-field maiden last August and he went close in 1m4f handicaps in his final two runs for Ralph Beckett; left that yard for 90,000gns last autumn; struggled on stable debut here (2m, good) in May but he was a fair fourth over the same C&D last month; has possibilities if he can build on that and he's in the mix back in trip. |
11/2 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won a small-field maiden when with Ralph Beckett for whom he was competitive in handicaps at up to 1m4f; left that yard for 90,000gns; finished behind Midnight Rumble here four weeks ago on yard debut when trying 2m for the first time; that was after a lengthy break so might well be all the sharper here, and Toby Moore is a positive booking. |

3rd 11 (11) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
He's gradually worked his way back into form for his new yard this year, finishing second over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago; one to consider. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 10 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
Won handicap debut for Ed Walker off 4lb higher last September (extended 1m3f, heavy); got closer to that level in on his last two runs for his new connections and seemed to stay 2m at Chester last time, but he was only fifth of seven in that race and others have more pressing claims. |
14/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Successful handicap debut for Ed Walker off 2lb higher last September (extended 1m3f, heavy); well short of that level in three runs for his new connections; likely best watched for now. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Six-time winner, latterly in comfortable fashion at the expense of three rivals at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm); strongly considered off 4lb higher; Charlie Tucker claims 7lb, replacing Oisin Murphy. |
4/1 |
|
1st 1 |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Not particularly consistent this term for new stable but his most recent Class 5 attempt resulted in Bath win (1m6f, good; narrowly off 1lb lower) in June; possibilities returned to this grade. |

5th 5 (2) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has a patchy profile but he hasn't been with current yard for long and he won at Bath (1m6f, good) last month; only sixth of seven here (2m) last time but he ran well for a long way and was beaten less than 4l; still looks on a workable mark and he could make a bold bid back in trip. |

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. |
