11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Drawn wide when winning this race 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark; not hit top gear yet in 2026 but this should be run to suit him and a revival would come as no surprise. |
8/1 |
|
9th 6 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three of his four wins on AW have been over 5f at this track; has pulled too hard to give himself a chance in his two runs this year; needs revival on return to this track. |
7/1 |
|
7th 11 (5) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up in this race last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Chester (5f, good) last July; never a threat on his reappearance at Lingfield (6f) last month but he pulled hard and this drop back in trip is a positive; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if he gets the breaks. |

13th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Picked off in the final strides in a 6f classified event at Lingfield nine days ago but dropped away to finish a remote eighth at Newcastle on Monday (tried in a hood which is left off today); needs better for today's drop back to 5f. |
7/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
8th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Record of 0-16 but he was only just caught by the favourite in a classified event at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) last Thursday; hood is now added into the mix and he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form. |

She ran right up to her best when fourth of 11 behind Greavsie over C&D on her handicap debut 11 days ago; unexposed at the trip and the addition of blinkers could help. |

5th Dec 2022 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Has made the frame in 6f novice events at Leicester (behind two subsequent scorers) and Kempton; in good hands and looks open to further progress; solid-looking contender who commands respect. |

28th Dec 2022 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has shown enough promise in three novice/maiden runs to think he has a future and he makes his nursery debut at a realistic level; the betting should be instructive. |
8/1 |

4th 8 (7) |
18th Nov 2022 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Outran his 66-1 odds when a promising fourth of 13 at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) on his debut in September; that was behind a well-backed favourite who was defying a penalty and he has each-way claims if he can build on that. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable effort when beaten 1l over C&D in May but his overall profile is patchy and today's cheekpieces didn't seem to work when used for the first time 34 days ago. |
25/1 |
|
10 (15) |
29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ran well at Thirsk 12 days ago, finishing close up in fourth (6f, good to firm; Hurstwood second); new cheekpieces can help and he's one to consider, especially with rain in his favour. |

31st Mar 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Peak effort when neck second in C&D classified race four starts ago; may benefit from the return to this venue but is no certainty to go one better, being 0-20. |
16/1 |
|
7th 6 (5) |
9th Mar 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Longstanding maiden who's been running well in headgear this year, latterly over C&D last Thursday (allowed to set a steady pace); needs to find more from somewhere if he's to make it 20th time lucky. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (2) |
29th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Maiden; ran well in first-time visor at Southwell on penultimate run but failed to reproduce that last time; however, could get run of race back in trip from low draw and not out of this. |

Soon in an uncontested lead from a wide stall when springing a surprise on his Polytrack debut in October (race not working out); below that level from another tough draw last time and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market. |

15th Jan 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Form went the wrong way on first three starts but he turned things around with first-time headgear on handicap debut at Newcastle (5f, AW) 13 days ago, running on into third of eight; needs to build on that but it's likely that he will, including given his useful pedigree and step up in trip. |

26th Nov 2022 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Some promise on his Doncaster debut three weeks ago (6f, heavy) and he was the subject of market support at Kempton last week, only to finish a well-beaten eighth of the 11 runners; drops in trip today and presumably felt capable of better. |

28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Two 1m handicap wins at Kempton in early 2023; mostly in good form on turf since but likely to need more than his latest defeat on Tapeta, at Wolverhampton nearly two months ago (first-time cheekpieces, retained); course debut. |
7/1 |
|
6th 8 (7) |
16th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can start slowly and usually comes from off the pace; won twice at Kempton (1m, AW) earlier in the year and he's reached the frame in his last three runs, including a second here (1m, good to firm) in June; still unexposed on turf and he has shaped as though this step back up in trip could suit; in the mix. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time C&D winner who's well drawn for one happiest up front; only won one of her last 29 starts, which include 18 defeats at 6-1 or shorter, and she has a bit more on coming out of handicap company, but she usually gives her running round here. |
8/1 |
|
7th 6 (7) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Hard to knock her consistency since winning over C&D last June but her losing run is up to 22; should run her race again but more minor money could be here best hope. |
7/1 |
|
4th 11 (11) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Hard to knock on the consistency front and Saturday's third over C&D (visored first time) was another solid effort; set to run her race once again but it might not be enough to end a losing run which stands at 21. |

19th Jun 2023 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |

Eight-race maiden who has some encouraging AW form; gelded prior to creditable fourth in Lingfield classified race (1m4f) last time; possibilities if he takes well to first-time headgear on turf debut. |

Struggled in three 6f novice events but she went very close on her handicap debut at Kempton (1m) last month and was runner-up again in a 1m3f classified event there (Dafyre third) last time; open to more progress on this drop back in trip and she's a key player off an unchanged mark. |

Came in for support ahead of his comeback and has shown that this mark is within range in two handicaps since (said to have hung right throughout at Lingfield); is a player if the first-time headgear does the trick. |
