Far Ahead
FAR AHEAD has dropped a long way in the weights and shaped well in the face of a troubled passage at Beverley last time so he gets the verdict over last year's third Arranmore. Woodleigh and I Can Boogy also hold solid place claims.

Dual winner on heavy ground around 1m in October last year and finished with running left after meeting trouble when sixth at Redcar on final outing of season. Not seen to best effect (raced freely into headwind) at Doncaster on return and we still may not have seen the best of her.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDoncaster1mGood to SoftFlat10/22Redcar7f 219yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat6/14Nottingham1m 75yHeavyFlat1/14Ayr1mHeavyFlat1/12Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat5/8- 3(9)WoodleighJ: Oisin McSweeneyT: Roger Fell106-055Age 59/29/25/1

Latest win came at Redcar (1¼m) in October and ran creditably over 8.5f at Beverley on his last 2 outings, though has shaped as if he'd benefit from going back up in trip there last time.

Tumbled down the weights in handicaps but he shaped much better than the result when seventh of 14 in handicap at Beverley (8.5f, good) 13 days ago, getting a gap only within the final 100 yds and keeping on under hand riding. A chance is taken he'll build on that.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBeverley1m 100yGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat7/14Redcar7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat14/14Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat12/12Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat12/12Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat11/11- 2(10)BarleybrownJ: Joanna MasonT: Ruth Carr744-376Age 66/111/213/2

Won a classified event over 1m at Newcastle in February and has since been placed twice in similar events at that same C&D. Not disgraced when sixth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7f, 5/1) 36 days ago and she should give another good account from 1 lb lower mark.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSouthwell7f 14yStandardFlat6/11Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat3/11Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat5/9Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat2/10Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat1/8- 4(7)Quirke On ParoleJ: Jack GarrittyT: Mark Walford21257-0Age 416/116/114/1

Opened account over 1¼m at Beverley last June and found just one too good back here the following month. Ended 2025 with a disappointing effort though and trailed home last of 10 back at Beverley on return last month, so will need to step up considerably on that run.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBeverley1m 100yGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat10/10Pontefract1m 2f 5yGood to SoftFlat7/9Carlisle1m 1fGoodFlat5/10Beverley1m 1f 207yGood to FirmFlat2/9Beverley1m 1f 207yGood to FirmFlat1/9- 1(3)Daring LeaderJ: Jack NichollsT: Christopher Kellett3121-78Age 518/118/116/1

Won at Hamilton and Newcastle on 2 of his last 3 starts in 2025.

Regular slow starter had the race run to suit when cosy winner of a Wolverhampton classified stakes in March. Shaped as if in good form when a never-nearer fifth in a handicap there (9.5f) 30 days ago but typically needs plenty to drop right.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton1m 1f 104yStandardFlat5/11Southwell1m 3f 23yStandardFlat5/10Wolverhampton1m 1f 104yStandardFlat1/8Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat6/11Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat5/10- 12(12)Ring Of GoldJ: Lewis ChalkleyT: Michael & David Easterby6-92254Age 922/122/120/1
