20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Enhanced his good strike-rate in Bahrain with Group 3 success in April; weakened into last of six (well below par) at Newbury since and it's nearly two years since he last prevailed on home soil; doubts are cemented by this difficult assignment back up in grade. |
66/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Four Listed wins before he added a 1m4f Group 3 success in Bahrain 15 days ago; stacks of smart form in his lengthy career and none of it better than that latest start, but a bit extra will be needed to win this. |

23rd Aug 2024 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Two wins last year (good to soft/soft; including here) and he took a six-runner C&D handicap (good) in May; however, slow starts can be an issue and he was well beaten at Thirsk last time; the cheekpieces had no positive impact on sole previous use in 2021; others are more compelling. |

16th Jun 2024 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three-time winner at up to 1m5f, on good or slower; latest success came at Hamilton (1m4f, good), on his penultimate start; finished over 3l ahead of Hope You Can Run when sixth back at Hamilton latest; more needed. |
9/1 |

2nd Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Left Jim Goldie before penultimate start; two wins from four races at Hamilton, including when he mowed down Capital Theory from the back in six-runner race (1m4f) 16 days ago; back up 4lb (peak mark was 2lb higher still) and stays further than this; another telling late challenge could be on its way. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Second in this race in 2024 and won it last year (good to firm); now he has a 4lb lower mark than last year; that's having failed to finish in the first six in any of his seven races since, but at least his latest start was better than reappearance and it's not unheard of for runners from this stable to surge back to form. |
14/1 |
|
8th 4 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
His form went the wrong way last season and he was soundly beaten on last month's return at Newmarket; however, he may have needed that run and is 2lb lower than when winning at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) last July; versatile ground-wise; not ruled out. |

1st Oct 2023 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Creditable third in City And Suburban Handicap over C&D (soft) in April and now 6lb lower but has very mixed record for new stable this season and it's hard to know what to expect from him after last month's poor AW run. |
8/1 |

13th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 2 |

Inconsistent results for new stable this term; respectable second of four at Goodwood (1m4f) most recently but now returns to a deeper field and is 0-5 on AW; not certain to back up latest effort. |

Last three wins came in Bahrain (December 2022 to December 2023); has been off for four months since a couple of ordinary efforts in good-quality handicaps in the summer and needs a revival on his Tapeta debut. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |

Makes handicap hurdle debut looking well treated on best Flat form, albeit with recent evidence (including under this code) suggesting he's not the force of old. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Smart at his best on the Flat; made low-key start to hurdling career during the winter but positives can be drawn from his fourth at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in February and he ought to be better suited by the faster ground here. |

10yo with a 9-57 record on turf compared to 0-9 (three seconds) on AW; still a force on turf last season (won off 5lb higher) and 2025 reappearance was okay but he took a backward step at Ripon next time. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was in July 2022 but he returned to the Flat for new yard with a front-running third at Pontefract (1m2f, good; tongue-tie added) two weeks ago; that was an encouraging effort after a break and he has possibilities if he can build on that. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 (4) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won in France in 2020 and scored over C&D in 2022 but has developed a rocky profile and was in poor form when last seen over hurdles in the autumn; has joined Martin Keighley (same owners) but watching brief advised on this comeback in a tongue-tie. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |

Dropped out of contention rather tamely at Uttoxeter (2m) last week and is now 0-11 over hurdles; has quite a bit to prove on this first venture beyond about 2m1f. |
