12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Has been kept busy since winning over C&D off a 2lb lower mark in December; went in again at Southwell on Tuesday evening and needs respect. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Not the most consistent but still capable on his day, as when winning a 6f handicap at Newcastle in December (2lb higher today); handy draw and no surprise to see him show up well. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Sole win from 18 starts on the AW came at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December and bounced back to form when runner-up there ten days ago; makes each-way appeal returned to 7f off a 2lb lower mark (4lb well in). |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Beaten 13 times since last win at Newcastle (7f, AW) last September but close fifth of seven at Ayr (1m, good to firm) recently and he may appreciate the return to 7f; his mark continues to fall and he might not be far away. |
15/2 |

Has done his winning over 6f/7f, the last five times on AW (hasn't scored on turf since 2023); kept mostly to Newcastle since last September; not the percentage call in this scenario. |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Does plenty wrong during his races but it hasn't stopped him from winning seven times, two of them over C&D; running himself back into form this year but others appeal more. |
12/1 |

4th 3 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
No stranger to the Ayr winners' enclosure, winning five at this track (5f-7f), including this race two years ago; has struggled for form in two 5f spins at Musselburgh this year, which makes him hard to fancy; on the plus side, the handicapper is beginning to give him a chance. |

Posted a duck egg over C&D last weekend on reappearance, taking Musselburgh record to 0-8; has done all his winning at Ayr and Hamilton; not the percentage call. |

21st Sep 2023 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has drawn a blank since winning in small field over C&D in April 2022; hasn't shaped too badly in some of his recent starts but he was down the field at Carlisle last time. |
11/1 |
|
9th 3 (12) |
7th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
No win since April 2022 (7f, Ayr) but has slipped to a workable mark, running consistently at Musselburgh; didn't enjoy a great deal of luck when a closing fourth over 7f there last week; returns to a trip which probably suits best; stablemate of Loom Large. |

8th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins at Kempton (7f/1m) for Tom Clover and placed a couple of times on turf for this yard during the autumn; didn't enjoy the clearest of runs when ninth of 12 here (7f) five weeks ago, but wouldn't have won anyway and still to prove he can act on Tapeta. |

9th 7 (5) |
3rd Nov 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time Kempton winner for Tom Clover and has tumbled down the handicap on turf this year; a bit higher in the weights back on AW but has been showing enough on soft/heavy turf to suggest he's worth considering. |
9/1 |

25th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

A four-time course winner who arrives in decent nick, fourth of eight over 7f here 19 days ago; he ought to be thereabouts once more from an easing mark. |
