20th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Overcame a troubled passage when getting up late to win a 1m2f classified at Lingfield on second start for this yard but he just couldn't pick up over the shorter trip at Wolverhampton (about 1m) next time; unraced here but acts on Tapeta and remains of interest with more suitable test. |

27th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Built upon encouraging stable debut (over C&D) when winning 1m2f Lingfield classified in refitted cheekpieces on Monday, opening his account at the 18th attempt; has 5lb penalty on this handicap return but still needs to be taken very seriously in current mood. |

Just two wins in 34 starts and he hasn't been in great form on the AW, which usually brings out the best in him. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Two wins from 33 starts; third of 11 in a C&D classified event in January but he's not been at that level back here on his last three starts; cheekpieces, worn last time, are retained. |

The odd encouraging effort this winter but he hasn't been at his best on his last two starts; connections now turn to cheekpieces. |

9st 6lb |
Sole win from 23 starts came on turf at Salisbury off 11lb higher last August; runner-up at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; first-time blinkers) in March but he was disappointing over 1m2f here next time and was pulled up at Bath (1m, firm; reported to have moved poorly) when favourite 38 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His form can be up and down and he failed to shine at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time; however, prior to that he was a promising fourth on his reappearance there (7f, AW), and he won off this mark at Chepstow (7f, good) last May; capable if bouncing back to form. |

8th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Dual course winner (7f/8.6f) who was returning from six months off when beaten 2l into fourth of eight behind Bad Habits over here 17 days ago; could fare better in returning blinkers this time. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Two course wins, including when running on well over this trip (Class 6 classified; 9-4 favourite) last March; now rated 1lb lower than when fourth over C&D (25-1) last October; market should guide on seasonal return. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often slowly away; beaten 6l when third of ten in a handicap over this C&D last month but she never featured in a classified event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) nine days ago; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

7th 1 (6) |
23rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual course winner (8.6f), but she's not been at her best this winter and was beaten 6l when third in a Southwell handicap last time; has something to prove and she meets most of today's rivals on unfavourable terms. |

8st 10lb |
Slightly disappointing when well-held fourth on this month's turf return at Bath (1m), but was in good form on AW beforehand (7f-8.6f) and is well suited by this C&D; no surprise if he features. |

4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Has run with credit since winning at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) last July but is a victim of his own consistency and probably needs to drop a couple of pounds before finding another opening. |

Won 7f Southwell classified in January and is also suited by this C&D but his recent efforts have been disappointing and his overall profile is not persuasive. |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often pulls hard and perhaps running in a sprint for the first time in a little over a year will help on that front; again has something to find at the weights for a trainer who also saddles Juan Cool Dude, however, and is a regressive maiden. |

25th Jun 2025 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Best form for this yard when third in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f, AW) last July but it's been downhill since, including in classified company (beat one yesterday at Brighton) and with a variety of headgear; stable has better chances with Rebel Cove. |

Finished third of ten in handicaps at Bath (1m, firm) and Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last summer, but not matched that form since and now 0-15; off three months. |
