5th 4 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Has four wins at this track, mostly over today's distance; 3lb higher than his last success in March but cannot be dismissed here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 (11) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
It was a narrow verdict over 8.6f here four weeks ago and he went up only 3lb; with that run under his belt and being a triple C&D winner, he should feature again if able to overcome a wider than ideal draw. |
7/1 |

1st 6 (4) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won three times over 9.4f here last year and ended that year with a keeping-on second over that trip; returns from two-month break on fairly tough mark, though, and this drop back to 8.6f is not ideal. |

3rd Oct 2022 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
led, headed and pushed along over 3f out, ridden over 2f out, soon lost position, weakened over 1f out, eased inside final 110yds (trainer's rep could offer no explanation for the poor form shown) |

26th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Eight-race maiden; unlucky not to finish closer to the target when seventh at Bath (1m, good; denied clear run in closing stages) last month but was behind stablemate Athene's Kiss when fifth at Brighton (1m, good to firm) a fortnight ago. |
13/2 |

2nd Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ended her 2yo campaign with third in an Epsom novice (7f, soft) but she has not made a significant impact in handicaps this season, including at Carlisle on Thursday. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
2-36 with one of his wins coming here (1m2f, good to firm) in August last year, the other at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) in June; placed five times from six starts over C&D this year, but below form on soft the last twice; could do with the ground drying out, but considered if it does. |
13/2 |
|
3 (10) |
15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with an emphatic win in classified event at Lingfield (11.6f) in June; ran to similar level when runner-up over C&D last month but his form has nosedived in last two runs; now drops back in grade but has a bit to prove again and he's a frequent slow starter. |
14/1 |
|
11 (10) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Used to be a notorious slow starter but he's been a bit better in that department since the summer and it was a solid effort in this headgear combination when second of five at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; stayed on from the rear when third in an amateur riders' race over that C&D 12 days later; this is a notch above the standard he regularly contests, though. |

28th May 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Winner over 1m here in February when first-time cheekpieces were applied; well held in three starts since and has something to prove on her first 7f outing for 12 months. |
33/1 |

28th May 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

6th 5 (6) |
2nd May 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
1m course win (first-time cheekpieces) in February was a spike in performance; well below that level in two subsequent starts and hard to have confidence in her, especially over this trip. |

15th Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Disappointed over 1m on penultimate start but otherwise it's been a solid campaign at 7f, including wins in May/June; acts on Polytrack; concern is that handicapper has caught up with her. |
7/1 |
|
5th 9 (5) |
14th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Looked promising when winning C&D novice in May and again back in a handicap at Doncaster in June; progress has rather stalled since but the return to 7f can suit and she may yet do better on Polytrack. |
7/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
25th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
took keen hold, led narrowly, headed but prominent after 2f |
