23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Busy spell as a juvenile included wins in Brighton maiden (5.5f) and course nursery (5f, again good to firm); also stays 6f and landed series final at Nottingham (good to soft) in October; more exposed than most of these and finished last on his reappearance, however; drops back down in grade. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Ran 12 times as a 2yo, winning three times; the ground may have been too soft when down the field at Newbury on his final run last year but likely a few of these will have his measure. |
33/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Admirably consistent gelding who is thriving on his racing, proving better than ever when seeing off five rivals in 6f Nottingham nursery (good to soft) 23 days ago; should give another good account. |

16th Jun 2025 Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up on all three starts, latest when beaten half a length at Windsor (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; looks a matter of time before he gets his head in front and holds strong claims. |
2/5 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
19th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Good second on his Brighton debut (5.3f, good to firm) last month; similar form when turned over at long odds-on back at Brighton 19 days ago and the winner did that form no harm with a solid run in Listed company at York last week; should give it another good go. |

14th May 2025 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
13-8 favourite for both starts; close third on debut at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) but he faded into sixth of 12 at Beverley (5f, good) 12 days later; needs to put that latest run behind him. |

Attractively bred colt who was the 13-8 favourite when close third on debut at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) 12 days ago; he could be sharper for that experience and has a leading shout this afternoon. |

Record of 1-11 overall; has finished last in two sprint handicaps for current yard; cheekpieces added. |
25/1 |
|
14th 14 (7) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Changed stables last summer and it was an inauspicious start for this yard when last of nine in course nursery (good to firm) in August; subsequently gelded but again trailed the field at Bath (also 5f, firm) on his reappearance last month; plenty to prove on his first go at 6f. |
40/1 |
|
9th 5 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Maiden winner for previous yard; absent and gelded since failing to beat a rival last August on debut for new stable; best watched unless the market speaks positively. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
One win from 16 starts, over 6f on Kempton AW last August; in the frame on sand six times since but she hardly shifts in the weights; probably handles turf but needs a bit more for the return to this surface if she's to get her head in front again. |
9/1 |

4th 5 (1) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Her only win from 15 attempts came over this C&D and that was her sole appearance at Kempton; not beaten far off this mark in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f) 16 days ago; each-way shout once more. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Scored at Kempton (6f) last August and she continues in good form, caught wide when sixth in 6f Lingfield handicap 16 days ago; she can make her presence felt eased 1lb. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Showed little in three starts over 5f-7f on turf/AW for Dominic Ffrench Davis last year; makes her stable/handicap debut (same owner) in first-time cheekpieces after 167 days off; much more needed. |
33/1 |

3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

Bred to be a sharp 2yo but showed only minor promise when 40-1 for debut at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm) 144 days ago; Rossa Ryan booked and could fare much better. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
He's seen plenty of action and was with his third trainer when bagging Newmarket handicap (6f, good) last Friday; return to this career-high mark demands more. |
11/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two 6f wins on turf and AW for previous trainers and he ran right up to his best when a close fourth on Lingfield AW for this one in April; has had some excuses before and since and, while he's on the exposed side now, a good run can't be ruled out back on turf. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Closely matched with Alasrae on C&D form from Good Friday and his effort there can be marked up given he was poorly drawn; can be given a pass for Bath last time (hampered) and he has yet to run a poor race over C&D; more exposed than some but still commands respect. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Plenty to find on his Brocklesby/Brighton efforts; fitting of headgear needs to make a big difference. |

12th Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |

12th Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Weak 12-1 shot in the Brocklesby and he ran green before finishing 13th of 17; should be more streetwise this time but he needs a transformation on this switch to fast ground. |

20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Different proposition since gelded, winning a Goodwood seller (5f, soft) and Ripon nursery (6f, good) in recent months; also has form on firm ground; up 4lb since Ripon but Warren Fentiman claims 5lb. |
16/1 |

29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Gelding operation has done the trick, with him winning a soft-ground Goodwood seller and running to a similar level in defeat since; didn't look to have any excuses on his first crack at this trip on his nursery debut (same mark) last Monday though. |
11/2 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
21st Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Gelding operation has done the trick, with him winning a soft-ground Goodwood seller and performing better again in defeat under a penalty at Bath last time (firm; stumbled at the start and hit traffic); trainer has made a good start with 2yos and he's one to consider. |
5/1 |
