16th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Ex-Irish 3yo; favourite in both starts for new yard last month, but after winning a Yarmouth maiden (1m2f, good to firm) he was held in sixth on handicap debut at Sandown (1m2f, soft); still has potential after only seven starts but he needs to find more with cheekpieces added. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Both starts over 1m on Tapeta last autumn, improving from his debut to land a novice that's worked out well enough; longer trip should suit on pedigree now handicapping and the market will give some clues after eight months off. |

8st 13lb |
Scored three times last term for previous yard; below par in latest outing but ran well at Haydock (1m) earlier in May; this 3yo looks a possible danger off a favourable weight, provided he bounces back. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Not beaten far on his last three starts and it was a solid fifth of 14 in the 1m Carlisle Bell (first-time blinkers, retained) ten days ago; handicapped to be competitive again. |
5/1 |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins came in 2024 over 1m2f (good/good to firm) but he was runner-up three times last season; fair effort at York last time and now has first-time blinkers replacing cheekpieces now trying 1m for the first time since his debut. |
9/1 |
Betting Forcast
8/1 Nepal, 8/13 Be Patient, 7/1 Blue To Blue, 3/1 Financer
Verdict
The only unexposed contender is BE PATIENT (nap) who appears to have a good opportunity to complete a hat-trick. Financer may prove the biggest danger, unless Blue To Blue bounces back.[Steve Boow]
