18th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Six-race maiden; kept on well for a respectable third behind Captain Bruce over C&D last month but this quirky filly needs to learn to settle better and comes with risk. |
7/1 |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not beaten far in a 7f seller at Chester in June, the only time she has gone around a left-hand bend, but she has been well beaten in two nurseries since, including when tried in a hood at Beverley 16 days ago; dropping down the weights but not a solid option. |

9st 7lb |
Pulled too hard when 19l fourth of five in C&D nursery on handicap debut last time (good to firm; 5-1); needs to settle better with a hood on for first time. |

8st 13lb |
Gained a second success of the season on her first go over 1m4f in nine-runner York handicap four weeks ago; up 2lb but she must enter calculations if her stamina holds out over this longer trip. |

8st 12lb |
Three nursery wins last year (7.4f-8.4f) and back on the scoresheet at Haydock (1m, good to firm) in April; again ran well when fourth at Nottingham (1m2f, good) recently; in the mix if seeing out this new trip. |

19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Placed in two turf handicaps last year, including at Leicester when last seen in October; first-time cheekpieces are added on reappearance; likely to be competitive if ready to roll. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Failed to take to the AW two starts ago but he wasn't far away in turf handicaps over an extended 7f (good to firm) and 1m (good to soft) either side; a bare 7f can suit and on the premises again. |

15th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Sixth at Redcar (6f, good to firm) on second start and soft ground may not have suited next time; there's potential in his pedigree and his trainer has won two of the last four runnings, including last year with one making his nursery debut in first-time cheekpieces, just like this gelding. |

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

Modest form in a couple of maidens and may do better once he goes handicapping. |

9st 7lb |
Last of ten on his debut at Chester (5.5f, good; 40-1) 11 days ago and big improvement required. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Showed the right attitude when winning at Southwell (7f, AW) off a 2lb lower mark early last month but then made it six poor efforts from six starts on turf at Beverley a fortnight later; that leaves him with it to prove. |
12/1 |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Had stable companion Harswell River (2lb better off) just behind in fourth when winning a Southwell nursery on AW debut last time (well-beaten fifth in a C&D nursery previous start); up 2lb; a possible. |
4/1 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
No improvement for the switch to minor nurseries on his last two starts; hopes appear to rest on the new surface having a positive effect. |
