1st 1 (5) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Has raced only on good/good to firm when on turf; 4yo who was having only the fifth start of his career when landing the 22-runner John Smith's Cup over C&D six weeks ago; an 8lb rise means a Group-class performance will be needed to follow up but no surprise were he to find it. |
7/2 |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
2-2 in last season's first campaign (1m, AW) and he built upon his comeback run with a close second in a first-time hood (retained) at Sandown (1m, good) last month; his finishing effort last time suggests this step up in trip could prompt further improvement; due a 3lb rise and he's one to consider. |
9/2 |

2nd 4 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Two from two (on AW) in his first season last year; paid the price for going too freely when beaten favourite in C&D handicap (good) on reappearance but may settle better with the outing under his belt and hood now fitted; still open to further progress and remains of interest. |

21st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Probably ran into one when beaten 12l into second of six in a novice over C&D last month, but made no mistake on handicap debut back here 19 days ago, coming home 4l clear; 9lb higher but probably has plenty more to offer. |

1st 11 (10) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Beaten 12l when second to a 1-9 shot over C&D last time; unexposed and starts life in handicaps off a lowly mark; could go well. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has cut little ice in a pair of 1m AW novices, off ten months before coming in eighth at Southwell 22 days ago; a lot more is required. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Inconsistent maiden who has his quirks; can miss the start and pull hard, while he did some hanging when fourth of the five runners last time; not the percentage call. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 (5) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Inconsistent maiden who has missed the start and/or pulled hard; no problem with 9.5f on Tapeta last time, when turning in his best effort since handicapping (made most), but history suggests he's no good thing to build on it. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 6 (7) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Struggled since handicapping this year and he blew the start at Wetherby last month before pulling too hard on Tapeta a fortnight ago; goes beyond 1m for the first time and will need to settle better upped from 7f. |

1st 2 (7) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden who has largely encouraging form since handicapping, solid second at Newcastle (12.5f; behind subsequent winner) most recently; enters calculations off same mark. |
5/2 |
|
5 (6) |
9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 5f 26y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
All four starts on AW; displayed little in her qualifying races but made late headway into fourth of 14 when upped in trip on recent handicap debut at Newcastle (12.4f), where he was short of room late on; very much of interest if taking to turf. |
11/4 |
|
9 (13) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Beaten a long way in his qualifying races (1m-1m2f) and comes with risks on handicap debut. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Can front-run; did too much too soon in first-time blinkers over 1m here eight days ago and faded into fifth; headgear is retained and he may appreciate the drop back in trip. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (11) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to place, including when 33-1 or bigger in all four of his handicaps; first-time blinkers replace first-time cheekpieces; best watched. |
33/1 |
|
14th 13 (3) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Six-race maiden who is far from solid on form and has yet to start at shorter than 33-1; cheekpieces are now added and he needs improvement on this switch to turf. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Unplaced all six hurdle starts; not disgraced when fourth of seven over about 2m6f (if additional yardage is included) at Market Rasen (good) last month, though, and may yet have a bigger run in him. |
9/1 |
|
4th 4 |
12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Seven-race maiden; returning from a near five-month absence when finishing a weakening fifth of ten to Banderas at Hexham (2m4f, good; 22-1) 24 days ago; now 3lb lower but in need of sharp improvement. |
16/1 |
|
5th 13 |
19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Has hinted at ability but he finished a remote last in December on handicap debut at Catterick (2m4f, good), which leaves him with plenty to prove. |
