27th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Enhanced his excellent record over C&D when extending his lead at the line 13 days ago with three of these rivals left trailing in his wake; up another 6lb but Warren Fentiman claims a useful 7lb (different claimer took away 3lb last time); very solid. |

14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has form figures of 1111351 over C&D and he hit a personal best with that latest win 13 days ago; 6lb higher back up in grade but he still looks feasibly treated and should be in the thick of things again. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time C&D winner, latterly after a five-month break off 4lb lower last August; another solid effort fresh when not far behind Lord Capulet and The Green Man four weeks ago and is 7lb better off with the winner; can miss the break but is considered. |
6/1 |

3rd 7 (6) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has a fine record over C&D including three wins, four seconds and four thirds; didn't fire here in his final run last year but he remains feasibly treated on his best form and his last win was after a break; needs watching in the market back from 139 days off. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Both wins on AW and 0-18 on turf; a couple of Pontefract runs this spring that bring him into the reckoning and this is effectively his first run at this level since winning at Newcastle in December; should run his race. |

6th 7 (2) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |

Two wins on AW but 0-17 on turf; second and third over C&D in the spring off slightly higher marks than this, before lesser efforts elsewhere on last two outings; well treated if back on song. |

Two wins on AW but 0-16 on turf; twice placed at Pontefract this season but he needs to rebound from a lacklustre effort at Ripon (1m2f, good) three weeks ago. |

9th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Won three times for Craig Lidster last season and subsequently sold to join current yard for 34,000gns; has been in fine heart this year winning twice, latest over C&D (good) last month off 5lb lower mark; looks sure to run well. |

Plenty of short-priced defeats to go with four AW wins (three here over 7f) in recent times for James Owen, from whom he was picked up for 5,000gns recently; fine on turf and has a handy draw. |

14th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

In fine form in 2026, bagging a quickfire C&D hat-trick in March; ran another good race dropped to 6f here when third of 12 last time, bumped start; a player once more back at his ideal trip. |
5/2 |

3rd 5 (4) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

Won three over 7f here of late and looked a bit unlucky not to make it four last Friday, when having Way To Dubai just behind; the drop to 6f shouldn't hurt and his claims are obvious off the same mark. |

9st 12lb |
Modest strike-rate (2-29) but she did go mightily close over 7f at Southwell in September; subsequent turf efforts at York and Doncaster (both Class 4) were okay and she ran to a similar level back on AW latest; first go over 1m2f since the summer of 2023. |

Beaten 13 times since last win at Newcastle (7f, AW) last September but close fifth of seven at Ayr (1m, good to firm) recently and he may appreciate the return to 7f; his mark continues to fall and he might not be far away. |
