31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Progressive since moving into handicaps in this hood and she made it 3-4 in such races when winning comfortably at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago; a 6lb rise may not stop her today. |

1st 5 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Consistent since raised to this sort of trip in handicaps and was nicely on top late on at Redcar (good) the last time; still looks well handicapped off 4lb higher. |
11/10 |

1st 6 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has continued to progress since switching to turf handicaps with a hood fitted, following up her narrow Yarmouth success (1m2f, good to firm) in April with a second of nine at Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) last month (met traffic); subsequent wins by the first and fourth give the Ascot form substance and she is 2lb well in; holds major claims. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Improved efforts of late, brushing aside two rivals at Yarmouth (11.4f, good to firm) last Sunday; should make another bold bid under a 6lb penalty. |
10/11 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Scored on handicap debut at Newbury in May and bounced back from a duff effort when running-on second to progressive rival at Doncaster (also 1m2f, good to firm) last month; could have untapped potential over this longer trip; respected. |
13/8 |

2nd 8 (6) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
First time over this far and his first handicap when winning by a neck at Newbury (1m2f, good; 2lb lower); finished last at Sandown where he hung left-handed throughout; better expected returned to a left-handed track. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
2-4 for this yard with narrow wins at Ripon (1m) and Doncaster (1m2f); another creditable effort over 1m2f last time; needs to resume improvement, which may be possible as he's just a 3yo but he's not bred for this new trip; it's also his AW debut. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 6 (1) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
0-4 for Clive Cox but 2-3 for this yard after narrow wins at Ripon (1m, good to soft) and over C&D (good to firm); came from off the pace a month ago to collect by a half-length off 5lb lower; well bred, he might well have more to offer. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Justified favouritism when beating a clear second on his seasonal/stable debut at Ripon (1m, good to soft) in April; never dangerous when fourth in similar conditions at Nottingham last month but that was a Class 4 and he has shaped as though this new trip should be within range; needs a close look on this drop back in grade. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Successful handicap debut at Musselburgh in April when making all off 4lb lower; below that level since, including when able to lead at Lingfield last time (1m1f, good to firm) on the back of a gelding operation. |
14/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made all off 6lb lower round Musselburgh in April; has not been able to lead on either run since (fluffed the start at Beverley; said to have stopped quickly at Sandown a month ago) and has since been gelded; too soon to write him off. |
6/1 |
|
12th 2 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Signed off last term by landing a Musselburgh maiden (7f) and reappeared at that track when making a winning handicap debut (1m, also good) in April; raised to this mark when only sixth at Beverley next time but softer conditions were a plausible excuse; not dismissed back on a sounder surface with William Buick taking over. |

C&D winner last summer; back in good form of late and posted a solid fifth of eight in 1m2f Doncaster handicap last month; in the mix once more. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |

Won twice last year on good ground, latterly over 1m2f; close to best form when second at Hamilton in June but has disappointed either side of that. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Initially promising but hasn't kicked on in handicaps (0-3; 7f-1m) and blinkers are removed after last time; bit to prove, though getting back on fast ground is a likely plus. |
16/1 |

4th 3 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |

Fair maiden who wasn't discredited with fifth of nine in 1m Nottingham handicap 18 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb with blinkers added. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Gelded since finishing last of seven at Southwell (1m, AW) on handicap/seasonal debut; may do better returned to turf with the outing under his belt, having shown some promise in this sphere as a 2yo. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |

Good and bad in six runs for this yard, failing to build on a decent run at Newcastle when seventh of eight at Doncaster last time. |
8/1 |
|
7th 2 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Good and bad in five runs for this yard, but wasn't beaten far the last time at Newcastle (1m) and on the evidence of that run this far is worth exploring. |
7/1 |

4th 7 (14) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Down the field on three of his four starts for this yard, including at Doncaster three weeks ago on latest outing; however, prior to that he caught the eye with a close fourth at Nottingham and he's 4lb lower today; capable of going well. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |

His standout run is the middle one when beaten a neck at Kempton (1m AW); possibilities on handicap debut if tapping into that promise on the back of wind surgery; market informative. |
16/1 |
|
9th 4 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Belied his 50-1 odds with neck second to Heraldry at Kempton (1m, AW) on seasonal debut; now gets a 7lb pull with that rival and has possibilities provided the form is backed up. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Beaten 15l when fifth of seven behind a 1-10 shot on his Haydock debut (1m, good to soft) in October; half-brother to a French AW winner, but improvement is needed. |
