26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Notched a third victory of the season at Nottingham (5f) in July; not at his best in a pair of handicaps at Goodwood (6f) and Thirsk (5f) since though; has a bit to prove returning from a break in refitted cheekpieces. |

Shot up the weights for winning three races in five starts and he finished down the field at Glorious Goodwood (6f); others might be better in. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Goes well around a left-hand bend; unlikely to have things his own way up front but he has the abiliity to win races off this mark. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Kept busy through the winter (won over 5f at Wolverhampton) but holding his form well, challenging wide when fifth of 11 in 5f Chester handicap nine days ago; considered. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |

Zipped around Wolverhampton when recording a couple of impressive 5f wins this winter so this track should suit; two solid placed efforts since returned to turf; might find a few better treated though. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
On a losing run but only just failed over C&D in August (having suffered a poor run) and posted another solid effort when fourth of ten at Ripon (6f) two weeks ago; should remain competitive. |
16/1 |

4th 10 (2) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner (September 2022); reliable in 2026, inching ever closer; beaten a nose by the in-form Mr Cool at Redcar (6f, good; 12-1) ten days ago; small 2lb rise, coupled with less favourable low draw, enough to further frustrate? |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner last July, but he's yet to fire this season and came in last of eight at Newcastle (5f) last time; tongue-tie goes on now with lots to prove. |
33/1 |
|
8th 1 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Smart in his pomp; 2026 has been a struggle but he has dropped 19lb in the weights and is now eligible for Class 6 company; too much ability to discount but he is looking increasingly moody in the early part of his races. |
10/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was off 15lb higher in July 2025; threatened only once from seven starts this term, in a small field three runs ago, and soon got detached on last two outings, so others are readily preferred. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
A four-time 5f scorer in 2025; yet to add to that this season and cheekpieces are tried having beaten just two in 5f Newcastle handicap 12 days ago. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Prolific down the years but it has been 13 months since the last of them; went close off this mark at Nottingham last month but she failed to back it up at Hamilton eight days later; others preferred for win purposes. |
16/1 |
|
7th 2 (8) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time course winner, most recently off a 15lb higher mark last August; has mostly struggled since but she was sparked up by first-time blinkers when beaten a neck at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) eight days ago; has to be respected off the same mark. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Five AW wins since last September (6f/5f) and beaten only about 4l when ninth of 17 at Ascot (5f, good to firm) two months ago, when last seen; this is less competitive and she could be involved. |
15/2 |

9th 16 (12) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
The winner of five AW handicaps (5f-6f) since September for her new stable; 6lb higher than for the latest of them and others appeal as being better treated. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Had a tremendous spell for new yard between September and January, winning five at 6f (two here) or 5f; her handicap mark has taken a battering but a recent second at Southwell suggests she's not weighted out of it; Ryan Kavanagh 2-2 on her and she can be thereabouts again. |

3rd 10 (14) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has a soft-ground C&D win on her record; well handicapped on this year's best but she has a wide stall to contend with and she needs to step forward from her recent Catterick fifth. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (9) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Returned to action with a win at Nottingham (5f, good) in April and she ran a cracker at Beverley one month later; not so good twice since and a lower draw would have been preferred. |
10/1 |
|
5 (5) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won over C&D (good) in April on reappearance before close third at Beverley (5f, good to firm); unplaced on next two starts but she was slowly away when sixth at Musselburgh then drawn widest when fifth at Beverley (5f, good); she's one to consider. |
