21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Done the bulk of his winning on AW (6-26), but one of his two turf wins came over C&D (from 8lb lower) in August 2024; in fine fettle, with form figures of 322, since returning to turf, beaten just over 2l by Mumayaz at Leicester (6f, good to firm) latest; should give his best. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Multiple wins on AW and turf; has done well for this yard and his 6f turf form in 2025 certainly bears scrutiny; respectable efforts back on grass of late and while not at full strength in either, he'll be suited by this stiffer test at 6f providing there's a good pace; form chance. |
100/30 |

2nd 4 (10) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No win on turf since September 2024 but he ran well for third at Thirsk (6f, good) two weeks ago, form that has been boosted by the winner and second running well in big fields since; one to be interested in off the same mark. |

1st Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Struggled on turf on two of his last three starts (ran well over 6f here in between) but that hasn't done his mark any harm; a strongly run race at this trip would suit; likely to go well. |
15/2 |

21st Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Had a productive time on AW over the winter and he's held his form well enough; the only real blip since November came when disappointing at Windsor on his penultimate start which now raises doubts back on turf. |
12/1 |

1st Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
His form dipped on turf three weeks ago but he was in fine form on AW over the winter, winning twice at Lingfield and going close over C&D last month; perhaps a shade high in the weights for a race as competitive as this one. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent this year but ran encouragingly over C&D returned to AW last time and has possibilities provided he builds on that effort; defied higher marks twice in this sphere in 2021. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 (4) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Shaped with encouragement on his return to action at Chelmsford in May (6f); three disappointing turf runs have followed but he's slipped down the weights and drops into a Class 5 for the first time since his easy Haydock win last summer; not ruled out. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Tame end to last season and no return to form on his two starts this year; however, he's 2lb lower than when winning this under Olivia Haines last year (good to firm) and the return to the Rowley Mile could trigger a revival. |
12/1 |
|
7th 8 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
On a dangerous mark on 2025 best but he ended that campaign with some lesser efforts and it was the same story on his return to action five weeks ago; others look safer. |

7th 8 (4) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Both of his wins on the AW have been over C&D but his most recent success came on turf at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last May; back on the AW following a 159-day break. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Third, beaten 1.25l by Over Spiced, in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; that represented his best turf result but this race will demand an even bigger effort. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Big chance on his AW form but he has finished out of the placings in all nine turf runs; BHA mark is 15lb lower on turf but he's likely to remain vulnerable. |
14/1 |
|
6th 3 (3) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won from a similar mark at Lingfield (5f; 8-1) in November; form levels have dipped since finishing third back there in January, failing to beat a single rival the last twice; is 2-4 over C&D, so it's possible that added cheekpieces can rekindle a spark. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
His three wins have come over 6f but he's hinted when running well over that trip this summer that this return to 7f is worth exploring; versatile ground-wise and could be in with a chance. |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
C&D winner last year; promising efforts over C&D and at Yarmouth (both on soft) last month but he found things happening too quickly on good to firm ground over C&D on Monday; blinkers now replaced by a new visor. |
16/1 |
|
9th 12 (2) |
11th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Form off current mark, all in Class 4, features a success over C&D in 2024 and placed efforts the last twice; steps up two grades but Oliver Carmichael takes off a handy 7lb; could go well. |
10/1 |
