16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made all over hurdles at Hereford (2m, good) last month and followed up on the Flat 17 days ago; not bred for fences but evidently in good nick; no surprise if he makes a bold bid on chasing debut. |
9/2 |

1st 3 (5) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Hurdle/bumper winner (won 2m novice handicap hurdle on latest outing), but perhaps not as effective on the Flat, although was beaten only 1.75l when third of seven off a 2lb higher mark at Chelmsford in February (1m6f); a possible. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Improved RPRs with each successive visit to Market Rasen, culminating in good-ground 2m1f and C&D wins in the past three weeks; unpenalised for an 11l romp in the latter, and he'll rarely have a better opportunity to round off a hat-trick. |

1st 5 |
12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Usually saves his best for this track, third to Trust House (runs in the 8.01pm) in March and runner-up to a subsequent winner in April, prior to gaining his first win over hurdles here (2m; good, 4-1) a fortnight ago; a 6lb higher mark (close to a career-high) will make life tougher. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; hasn't been in the same form in two turf outings since returning from a break but is back on his last winning mark and Phil Kirby has tasted recent success in this race. |
7/1 |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; he was returning from a three-month break when weakening over 2m at Catterick this month and drops back down in trip today, but he has to prove he's fully effective on turf. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Two AW wins in France but little to celebrate in Britain; two AW runs last autumn were respectable but nothing comparable this year; the new headgear needs to prove transformative. |
20/1 |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Yet to win for this trainer (0-16), in rear throughout on last visit to this track (1m2f) in May; subsequent Newcastle effort no better; stablemate of Yurinov; far better to focus elsewhere. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-7 over hurdles and hasn't threatened on her first three Flat starts; however, this bumper winner goes up in trip off a lowly opening Flat mark and Hollie Doyle has been booked; no surprise to see a good run. |
8/1 |

7th 2 (2) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Bumper winner in September 2024 but 0-7 over hurdles, followed by two low-level performances under Flat rules; best watched for now. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Soundly beaten on final three starts last season and same story on reappearance in April; however, she might have needed that latest outing and she won this last year; shouldn't be discounted. |
8/1 |
|
8th 9 (10) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won at Hamilton (1m4f) in June when returning from a 227-day break and beaten less than 3l when fourth to Sea Master there (1m5f, also good) next time; not in the same form subsequently but might do better back from her winter break. |
