Rediscovered some form when a front-running third at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) before never dangerous on AW earlier this month; has since changed hands and left Billy Aprahamian; acts on soft but not proven over this far. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
0-15; third of seven over C&D on his penultimate start; has dropped 11lb this calendar year and has a chance from this mark on several pieces of form in that period; below par at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) latest; jockey has been in the first four in 22-31 rides for this trainer (five seasons). |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
0-14; third of seven in an amateur riders' event at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) last month, but still to fully convince he wants this sort of trip; Tapeta debut. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
0-13; down the field at Lingfield (7f, good) 17 days ago but he now returns to AW off a mark 8lb lower than when second of eight here over 7f in October; stamina for this far is a question mark but his pedigree suggests it's worth exploring (dam 1m2f/15.5f winner). |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Showed promise in three AW novice events when with Andrew Balding; has finished last on both starts for this trainer (1m and 1m3f, both AW); drops another 5lb but we need to see more before he can be recommended. |
33/1 |

13th 4 (1) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Showed promise in three AW novices for Andrew Balding last winter including over this C&D, but having been gelded he finished last of seven on stable/handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) 15 days ago; may have needed it, but still has enough to prove. |
20/1 |

7th 2 (8) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Showed plenty in three starts on AW for Andrew Balding, including when third of 12 behind two useful types at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) in February; bought for 7,500gns since and gelded; hood added for handicap/yard debut; interesting contender. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Three AW wins last year, the latest over C&D in October and he's now back to that mark for the first time since; bits of encouragement since give him a place in calculations. |
16/1 |

8th 7 (3) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Fast-finishing fourth over 1m2f at Lingfield in January but he hasn't found the same form in two subsequent outings there; Marquand up but others bring more compelling claims. |

7th 2 (2) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Fast-finishing fourth over C&D 19 days ago but he wasn't in the same form behind Tommy's Promise here one week later; Rossa Ryan booked and he's capable of a big run at this level. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Scored over hurdles at Stratford last May but below par on the AW over the winter, beating just one home in 1m2f handicap at Chelmsford in February; more is required after a break in a change of headgear. |
14/1 |

7th 1 (7) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

C&D scorer but she's not proving the easiest to predict of late, tried in a change of headgear when only sixth of eight in 1m handicap here last month; others are preferred. |
12/1 |

6th 8 (6) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three of her wins on the Flat have been over 1m2f; failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in November but she ran a better race when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 26 days ago; cheekpieces replace the visor but this is the shortest trip she has encountered since July 2023. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No win since May 2024 (1m2f, Bath) but she has fallen a long way in the weights as a result; may have needed her reappearance run at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month but she had a patchy record last season and others are more convincing. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

No win since May 2024 (1m2f, Bath) but she has fallen a long way in the weights as a result; bogged down on heavy ground at Nottingham last October; it's difficult to know what to expect returned to AW (0-11) off a six-month absence. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Placed three times over 7f-1m on Kempton's Polytrack; a repeat of his better efforts in handicaps would give him another chance of being involved but he has to prove he can see out this trip. |

3rd 10 (7) |
15th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Six-race maiden whose form since handicapping features a couple of third-place finishes over 7f at Kempton; worth another go at 1m; possibilities off same mark. |

3rd Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Never landed a blow at Windsor (1m) on Monday; showed improvement with close third over C&D (AW/handicap debut) the time before and that form puts him in the picture off same mark. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Debut winner in August last year but not added to tally since and hasn't been the most consistent; down slightly in both weights and grade but best watched from double-figure draw. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Debut turf winner last year (7.5f, good to soft) but that remains his peak effort; on a handy mark but there's been little recent encouragement. |

12th 9 (11) |
16th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Out of the frame in five starts since his successful Chester debut (7.6f, good to soft) in August last year, albeit the trip looked to stretch him at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; down another 3lb but still has questions to answer. |

Wouldn't judge him too harshly on his latest effort (1m; Class 5) and his penultimate run didn't see him to best effect either; has shown promise on turf; not discounted. |
10/1 |

7th 8 (3) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Began 2026 with two good placed efforts over 1m2f at Lingfield; easy enough to strike a line through latest effort as he ended up poorly positioned in a race run at a stop-start tempo; drops in trip and steps up in class today; others appeal more. |
10/1 |
|
9th 8 (9) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
It's now 12 runs since his sole victory but he's recorded two good placed efforts over C&D since joining Laura Mongan, going down by only a head latterly; has to enter calculations. |
