27th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden; 1m2f may have stretched her on last two starts but connections also now reach for first-time headgear; 10lb lower than on reappearance and a form case can be made. |
10/1 |

13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Consistent at 7f to about 1m when the ground has been good or quicker; good to soft probably didn't help when upped to 1m2f at Newmarket last month when never in contention so the stamina question remains unresolved. |
7/1 |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Mixed form since a promising second on debut last summer, and she faded into third when odds-on for maiden at Ripon (1m, good) 12 days ago; now moves up in distance and she's not sure to stay judged on her pedigree. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Better than ever on last two starts when winning comfortably at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) and a close third at Goodwood (1m2f, soft); ground firmer than good would be a concern. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |

Comfortably prevailed at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) last time but is no certainty to follow up, having done all his winning in Scotland; on a career-high mark. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Narrow success in April took his C&D record to 2-3; has remained in form elsewhere since and his latest effort, in Class 2 at Epsom, can be marked up (hampered then rallied for third place); respected back here. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 10 (11) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Made all at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) in April on second stable start; respectable efforts when fifth on his next two outings but he needs something extra today and is unproven on slow ground. |
40/1 |
|
5th 9 (5) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Suited by good/firmer; has quickly found his form this season for new yard and ran creditably in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m) last Saturday when attempting to follow up his Beverley success (7.5f); may do better still. |

22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
225,000euros breeze-up buy; remains a maiden, and is on the verge of becoming frustrating, but the Newbury and Newmarket races he contested in August and September have worked out very well; rail draw. |
7/2 |
|
8th 8 (6) |
25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made it 0-7 when below par at Newbury four weeks ago, when failing to settle; however, prior to that he went close in a small field at Salisbury (1m, good to firm) and can be in the picture if leaving last time behind. |
8/1 |
|
6th 12 (6) |
28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Six-race maiden; similar form in two handicaps around 1m this term, a solid third of 13 at Hamilton (good) in May backed up by a narrow second at Salisbury (good to firm) last time; far from disgraced over 1m2f in between; this drop back in trip asks a question but he's in form and is yet another contender. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
15-race maiden who has been performing respectably in 1m handicaps this winter without strongly suggesting his turn is near; today's longer trip needs to help him pull out a bit more. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 (10) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Finished behind a couple of today's rivals at Newcastle last time, but shaped as if he's still in reasonably good form; however, still needs to show he has what it takes to win (record is 0-14). |
9/1 |
|
5th 5 (12) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-13 but he's on a reduced mark and was an eyecatching third behind Trais Fluors over C&D four weeks ago; that was only his fourth run on AW and has possibilities if he can back that up. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Record of 0-13 since hat-trick last season but he is in a consistent vein of form, having been placed over 1m1f/1m2f in last five runs, latest at Ayr (soft); solid chance, despite dropping back in trip; has won over C&D. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 6 (7) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has a record of 0-12 since hat-trick last season and is suffering from seconditis at present but wouldn't need much improvement to go one better; ran creditably, beaten only 1l, at Chester (1m2f, soft) last Saturday; in the mix. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
No shortage of success beforehand but cheekpieces seem to have worked very well on last three starts when winning at York (1m2f, good) and running on well to be placed at Southwell (1m4f, AW) and York (1m4f, good to soft); came from an unpromising position on those last two outings (from last of 16 last time, which asked a lot) and he'll be a major threat to all if he stays on this first attempt at this sort of trip; stamina is the question. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 9 (14) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Acts on good to soft but unraced on soft since 2024 (trained was positive about it last September); no shortage of success beforehand but cheekpieces seem to have worked very well on last two starts when winning at York (1m2f, good) and running on well again for second at Southwell (1m4f, AW); raised another 3lb but came from an unpromising position last time and still has more to give. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 10 (8) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Five wins since July last year including one over 1m4f here; cheekpieces seemed to work well at York (1m2f, good) last time and a player in his hat-trick bid despite a 6lb rise. |

4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Scrambled home in a 7f Class 5 fillies' handicap at Carlisle (soft) last month but bombed out 48 hours later at Hamilton (8.5f; first-time visor); eased in grade with that headgear discarded seeking a revival; realistic chance at the weights factoring in allowances. |
5/1 |

9 (1) |
18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Early promise but her progress had stalled prior to rewarding market support at Carlisle on Monday (7f, soft); showed a good attitude there, especially as she raced freely early on, and can't discount despite a penalty; now tried in a visor. |
4/1 |
|
3 (6) |
16th Jun 2025 Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Second in maidens on first two starts last season, the first over 6f on good to firm at Pontefract, the second over 7f on standard to slow at Newcastle; hasn't progressed since going handicapping; bit to prove now. |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Heavy-ground winner over 7f on final 2yo start; conditions have mostly been difficult for her this year but her staying-on third of ten at Bath (1m, good to soft) 15 days ago was more promising; in the thick of it if adding cheekpieces has a good effect. |
9/2 |
|
3 (9) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Improved to win 7f nursery on heavy ground last autumn but well below that form this season (five runs; 7f-1m2f), including when back on slow turf a fortnight ago. |
16/1 |

6th 1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ended her 2yo campaign with a heavy-ground success on handicap debut at Leicester (7f); that was off 2lb higher but she's struggled in four runs this season and a tongue-tie didn't make any difference at Kempton three weeks ago; has lots to prove including stamina at this new trip. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; off the mark for the season at Musselburgh (1m5f) in August but ran moderately on soft ground (runner-up on it once last November) 12 days ago; worth going beyond 1m5f for first time. |

9st 5lb |
Showed promise in his first three starts for Hugo Palmer last autumn but hasn't gone on in handicaps, including on Tapeta; makes his stable debut having been picked up for 2,600gns last month; plenty to prove. |

16th Jun 2025 Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |

Remains winless and he was tried in blinkers when beating only one in 1m Hamilton handicap 19 days ago; reverts in trip here with plenty to prove. |
