30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
First two wins were on soft and heavy; has improved with each run this term, last time dealing with fast ground to beat Knight Templar at Sandown (1m6f); a 3lb rise isn't too damaging and she's hard to knock. |
9/2 |

1st 2 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ground this fast is a nagging concern but she's building up some momentum this season and was nailed late on over C&D 41 days ago; only had the 12 races and she's consistent. |
9/2 |

2nd 5 (7) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Her best form has come on slower than good and she looks on a fair mark when granted such conditions; latest Newbury third (2m, good to firm) was a good effort as she was keeping on well before being hampered by the winner 120 yards from home; each-way claims despite the likely drying conditions. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Had a good year on the Flat and over hurdles, and ran well back from a break to finish second to Personal Best at Sandown; however, he failed to back that up in a big way when tailed off at Kempton; goes on all ground. |

10th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Had a productive year over hurdles and on the Flat, last time returning from a break and boxing on for second at Sandown (1m6f); he was bang there over C&D the time before; solid chance. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
In good form over hurdles and on the Flat earlier this year, last time going close in a 2m AW handicap off 1lb lower; if in the same form after his break then should be involved. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Eleven wins include one over C&D (soft; equally effective on good to firm) on yard debut in June; back up 6lb but has won off slightly higher marks on the AW and his latest Sandown third, where he kept persevering, suggests he should be on the premises again. |
10/1 |

3rd 1 (5) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Career win number 11 when coming clear at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) on his debut for Tony Carroll; effective on faster ground and a 6lb rise might not stop him if he's turned a corner. |
3/1 |

1st 8 (2) |
12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Mainly seen on the AW these days, but he did win three times on turf as a 3yo; interesting to see how he fares in the market on debut for Tony Carroll (same owner). |

9st 7lb |
Won three in a row in a visor this spring (1m6f-2m1f, good to firm/good) but she's been well held in last three runs and was a long way behind An Bradan Feasa at Lingfield 13 days ago; visor returns and blinkers are removed. |

3rd 3 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won three in a row in a visor this spring (1m6f-2m1f, good to firm/good) but recent efforts suggest the handicapper may have her measure now; tried in blinkers here; needs to kick on again. |
7/2 |

4th 5 (6) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Completed a top-of-the-ground hat-trick this year (1m6f-2m1f) and remains in good form, as a tactical race wouldn't have suited at Yarmouth and she was never ideally positioned after starting slowly last time (finished 8.5l behind the winner); another to consider. |

9st 6lb |
Scored at Newcastle (1m4f) in March but largely below form since, last of four in 1m4f handicap at Thirsk ten days ago; this course winner needs to take a step forward in refitted blinkers. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |

Exposed 6yo who concedes weight to 3yo rivals but brings positives, being the only C&D scorer in the field and a winner off 2lb higher in most recent attempt in this grade. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Has been performing better on the AW than on turf during the past year, winning a selling handicap easily over C&D in July and finishing second of nine back here (1m5f) a week later; one for the shortlist. |
3/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Dual turf winner at 1m2f and 1m3f for Charlie Johnston last spring; back to form in winning a 1m4f selling handicap on the AW earlier this month and was then second under a penalty; 3lb higher now but should be fine back on turf. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 9 (4) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Dual turf winner at 1m2f and 1m3f for Charlie Johnston last spring; has had some struggles since but he got back to form with a bang when winning by 7l here (1m4f, AW) last Monday; that was off a tumbling mark and he's a major player if he can repeat that form under a penalty. |
