25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Made it 2-5 when making all in Yarmouth handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his reappearance in April; creditable third at Newbury the following month but he flopped when joint-favourite at Redcar last time; has bit to prove again after that and he could have competition for the lead back on AW. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Dominated a small field at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) and definitely improved on that form when a battling third behind classy improvers from top yards at Newbury (good); an easy lead looks unlikely here but he's a 4yo on the upgrade. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in April and he went close on Polytrack and turf in his next two starts; didn't really fire at Newmarket (1m, good) last time but he still looks on a workable mark and has claims if he can get back near best. |
13/2 |

6th 2 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
8yo who has been in fine form this spring, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) last month then going close at Lingfield (1m, AW) and Nottingham (1m, good); there's every chance he'll be bang there once more. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Seven AW wins, the latest on his seasonal return last month when getting the better of I'm Working On It (7f); midfield on turf latest; returning to AW is in his favour but all his wins have come at 7f (0-10 at 1m+) and he could prove vulnerable to stronger stayers today. |
9/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Went very close in this last year (good) and, having ended 2025 with a win at Kempton (7f, AW), he reappeared with another there (7f) last month; he can be bang there if handling conditions (unproven on slow ground). |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
7f AW novice winner at two; 0-16 in handicaps but yet another sound effort in defeat last time at Newmarket (7f, good); handicapped about right but one of these can come his way. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Just a 2yo novice win to his name and expensive to follow but he's generally run consistently in some competitive handicaps over the past year or so; another solid effort back on turf last week, minus the blinkers, and looks set to go well once more. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Second in this two years ago and often ran well last season; on a competitive mark on his best form but beaten on his last 20 starts and he's struggled on both outings this term. |
25/1 |

9th 6 (10) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Disappointing on reappearance at Newmarket (1m, good; reported to have stopped quickly) 57 days ago and both wins came over 1m2f on good to firm in 2024 (one here); however, he did post some good efforts last season (including on soft) and may be able to put his comeback run well behind him. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Free-going sort who was 4-18 for Charlie Johnston, including two 1m wins last summer, and made a winning start for new connections when 33-1 for a nine-runner race at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in January; absent since and has more to prove back at 7f for the first time since 2024. |

1st 6 (3) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Record of 4-18 for Charlie Johnston and was second at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) on his penultimate run for that yard; returns after three months off but he's still lightly raced on AW and needs watching in market on stable debut. |

3rd 10 (5) |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Prevailed by a neck at Wolverhampton (9.5f) last time for a fifth AW win; upped in grade but receives weight all round and is a solid contender, with C&D form figures reading 1223. |
6/1 |
|
1st 9 (9) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Has two course wins, including one over C&D; fair fifth of 11 at Lingfield (1m, AW) 13 days ago an first outing for six months; should come on for the run but looks high enough in the weights for now. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
He's 2-5 for this yard, the wins over 1m on good to soft and good to firm; a slow start was no help last time at Thirsk but he might be high in the weights now. |
5/1 |
|
8th 2 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Much more racing on AW than turf but better than ever on grass for new yard, winning both 1m starts (good to soft and good to firm), the latest over C&D with something in hand; a further 7lb rise may not be beyond him. |
9/2 |
