25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Completed a double off 4lb higher at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last June but he's been well held in three runs this season; seems versatile regarding ground and tactics but he needs to rediscover his spark. |
16/1 |

3rd 3 (8) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
At his best this time last year and is now 2lb lower than when last successful; well held in two runs back this spring, however, and didn't shine in two previous starts here, so has a bit to prove back from six weeks off. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who needs to produce more than he's managed the last twice but before those he was a creditable fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not written off. |
14/1 |
|
5th 1 (8) |
18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last month and ran well enough to think he's still in reasonable form when fifth in a higher grade than this at Haydock last time; in the mix. |
15/2 |
|
6th 10 (2) |
28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last weekend which gives him a fighting chance here but he has a better overall record on that track than this one and remains on much the same mark as when well adrift of Trilby here in April. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Made all over 5f on seasonal debut and finished second on both starts since, latterly under Cara Tuke in 14-runner C&D (soft) contest 16 days ago; evidently in good nick; ought to give another good account. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
He has returned from a break in top form, winning a 5f handicap at Hamilton (good) before a solid second at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago; returning to 6f no issue and he will be fine if it rains; should go well. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Inconsistent and regressive this year but down the weights and he was third of 13 off this mark over C&D last month; would have been closer granted a clear run and can be involved if he's on another going day. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 12 (6) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

5lb lower than for his turf win last August; mixed bag this year but he's fully effective under these conditions; others still appeal more. |

Six turf wins but below form lately; has run well enough on AW from just five starts but others preferred today. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 15y |
9st 5lb |
Won this race in 2020 and again last year off 1lb higher; likely to have needed his latest outing when behind a few of these at Roscommon and Oisin Murphy is an eye-catching booking; looks to have been laid out for this; interesting. |
20/1 |

19th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Regressive 4yo who has been unplaced all seven starts for Ruth Carr this year; continues to slip down the weights but was particularly disappointing when returning to turf ten days ago and has a lot more to prove than some. |
16/1 |
|
14th 5 (3) |
9th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
No win since juvenile days (then with Robert Cowell) and yet to take advantage of a falling mark; wasn't beaten all that far, some 3.5l, when fourth in first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton (7f) a fortnight ago; sits 2lb lower and drops back in trip; trainer won this race in 2017 and 2021. |
16/1 |
|
4th 6 (4) |
25th May 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His mark continues to fall and he didn't run badly when upped to 7f and sixth of 13 at Southwell (Tapeta) last time; however, he needs something extra in the first-time blinkers if he's to win this. |

25th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Had plenty to spare when winning a 6f handicap at Newcastle in November, meeting trouble in running but sweeping through to lead late on; never dangerous back there four weeks ago but this race looks full of pace and he should be arriving on the scene late. |
9/1 |
|
9th 9 (1) |
28th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Conditions to suit and he bounced back to form with a come-from-behind success over C&D eight weeks ago; met plenty of trouble on that occasion and looks good value for the 3lb rise; won this race off the same mark 12 months ago; one of four runners for the stable; would be suited by a strong pace. |

4th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time winner over 6f for Tim Easterby, including on the old Fibresand surface at Southwell; didn't show much on her stable debut over C&D last time (behind Ultramarine) and best to look elsewhere. |
25/1 |
|
7 (5) |
18th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Mostly consistent on turf this year for Tim Easterby, sold for 5,500gns after finishing third of nine at Redcar four weeks ago; rarely seen on AW but did win at Southwell (Fibresand) earlier in career. |

String of good efforts in July and August, winning at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) and placed on five other occasions; not at his best at Pontefract 11 days ago though and he'll be 2lb lower from the weekend. |

Returns from six weeks off but she was in good form when last seen, third at Beverley despite meeting trouble in running; should be thereabouts again, although plenty of rain would be a negative as she's been withdrawn several times due to soft/heavy ground. |
