18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
All five starts on good to firm, landing maiden and handicap wins around 1m4f in midsummer; disappointed when stepped up to 1m6f for the strong Melrose Handicap at the York Ebor meeting last month but good chance he can resume his progression back in much calmer waters. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won easily at 2-11 at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) in June on third start and followed up by a head in Newbury handicap (1m4f, good to firm); this is a much tougher test of his credentials and he could do with settling better now up in trip, but he's unexposed and is the sole runner for an in-form trainer who won this in 2019 and 2022; could have a part to play. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Triple 1m4f winner, including on Tapeta; handicapper has just had his measure since his last win but he's gone very close several times, the latest at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack); up 1lb; respected. |
13/2 |

6th 3 (2) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Currently 2-2 round here, both over 1m4f; proved consistent during a limited campaign this year, following wind surgery, bar a forgivable blip in a race that didn't pan out his way latest; a player if stamina holds now going beyond 1m4f for the first time. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Successful three times in May/June but his progress has seemingly come to an end; admittedly may benefit from this drop back in grade after a couple of Class 3 defeats. |
12/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
In good form on turf until folding tamely and well held last time; consistent in defeat on AW (four attempts) but he's 9lb higher than last appearance in this sphere. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive 4yo who has won three times this season (1m2f-1m4f, good to firm/good) and again ran well when third of five at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; there's every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Pretty consistent since his Newbury win in July and perhaps found the ground too soft last time; AW winner who should run well. |
8/1 |

14th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) in July and has continued to run with credit, including one run on good to soft; place claims. |
6/1 |

10th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Opened his handicap account in Newbury contest (1m2f, good to firm; beat a subsequent scorer) and not disgraced in two runs since, latest on ground possibly softer than ideal; this low-mileage 4yo may do better still. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Plenty of ability but no win after six starts; hung badly left on reappearance in April and he was eased right down in July next time; gelded before 1m4f AW handicap at Lingfield one month ago, in which he nearly redeemed himself but hanging left again did not help; dam won at up to 1m6f and he may yet come good, but there are clearly risks. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
4th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has plenty of ability but he looked an awkward ride when third of nine at Nottingham (1m2f) in April and he was eased right down on handicap debut at Newbury (1m4f; 9-4) in July; gelded since and may yet redeem himself back on AW, having run well here in the past. |
5/1 |

5th 5 (4) |
18th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Favourite for handicap/seasonal debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good) and improved his rating again in third of nine off this mark, but hanging badly left in the final 2f interfered with his effort; likely to stay and still has potential if he's been straightened out in his 100-day absence. |
