12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
All wins have been at 1m2f, on ground ranging from soft to good; therefore, his reappearance effort when a closing third (just behind Sweet Reward) over the extended 1m at Epsom can be viewed positively. |
16/1 |

3rd 6 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable fourth in the Great Metropolitan on last year's card; one win last year but it did come here in July and he was a respectable second at this track (also 1m2f, good to soft; has won on good) in September; below par over 1m on his final start in October and this trip again asks a question; market might help ahead of his comeback. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Five-race maiden who has finished out of the frame in two turf handicaps since returning last month, the latest when fitted with this headgear combination; another 2lb drop not enough to tempt. |
11/2 |
|
5th 7 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Improved with each of last year's qualifying runs but he left Charlie Appleby for 80,000gns in February; made a disappointing handicap/stable debut when sixth of seven at Windsor (11.5f, good) last month; new headgear combination quickly deployed and he comes here with a question to answer. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Ran poorly last time; generally consistent otherwise this year, over a variety of trips, and may rebound; however, hasn't won for nearly three years and concedes weight all round in this field. |
10/1 |
|
17th 2 (7) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
In the frame in eight of his nine starts this year, last time finishing third over 1m1f at Lingfield (good to firm); each-way chance. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins for Denis Quinn in the winter and a respectable fifth at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in April on sole starts for John Ryan; left the impression he's still in form at Thirsk 19 days ago on his first start for this yard and cheekpieces now go on. |
14/1 |
|
6th 10 (3) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins last winter for Denis Quinn and respectable fifth of 15 at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last month on sole run for John Ryan; however, it's a long time since he ran well on turf and has something to prove back on grass; stable debut. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Completed the hat-trick at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) on Monday; carries a 4lb penalty for that and stays 1m4f fine, so likely to have a major role to play again under Sarah Bowen, if electing to stand his ground. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (10) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Frequent slow starter who's enjoyed a revival since returned to turf, minus the tongue-tie and headgear; looked to have a bit more in hand than the final margin at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) off 3lb lower last time and holds obvious claims. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
C&D winner in November; got back on track in first-time cheekpieces when second of 13 in 1m2f Windsor handicap 18 days ago; can go well again back up in trip with the headgear retained. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Left it late when winning a 1m4f handicap at Wolverhampton in November; three lesser runs have followed but he is now 2lb lower than for the win; drops in trip with headgear added. |

14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Struggled early on for this yard (at huge prices) but he was dropped into a Class 6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f) 12 days ago, backed into 11-8 favouritism and duly returned to form, finding only an in-form rival too good; 1lb rise not an issue given what he was capable of last year; key player. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 (8) |
2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Two wins (1m2f/1m4f) in 2025 for previous yard, but he's raced in the rear and stayed there in all five runs for this trainer; on dangerous mark on this drop back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark. |

2nd 2 (4) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win in 7f AW maiden as 3yo; very understated in early handicaps for this yard but he's been involved in three tight finishes at 1m3f and 1m2f on AW in 2026 and the step up to 2m in March looked more of an experiment than a plan; acts on turf and has claims back at 1m2f. |
5/1 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Still to add to his 7f maiden win for Charles Hills in October 2024 but he has been banging at the door this year, placed on his last four starts (1m2f-1m4f); goes into unknown territory in terms of stamina and he's by Blue Point so there has to be a question mark. |
