8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
A dual 7f/1m winner in 2024; lightly raced this term and got back on track when fifth of 11 in 7f Haydock handicap 12 days ago; one to consider off an easing mark with blinkers added. |

26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice last June (7f, soft/1m, good to firm) and he is now 1lb lower than for the second success; only midfield in two starts last month (after a year off) but he has the ability to feature. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Held by Kodi Lion on Haydock running but may fare better with that reappearance effort under his belt; however, perhaps ideally needs a drop back in grade, having never won above Class 4. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has won on soft ground and he's now 8lb lower than when runner-up at Leicester (7f, good to firm) in June; however, he's finished no better than seventh across his five outings since. |

30th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |

Respectable second at Leicester in June but far from consistent otherwise this year and losing spell goes back to spring 2024; not particularly solid. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner who was beaten just 1l when second at Leicester in June and is now 6lb lower; however, soundly beaten on his three runs since (C&D last time) and the first-time visor needs to prompt a revival. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Well suited by switchback tracks and is on his last winning mark but he offered very little for his new yard at a big price on his recent comeback; headgear goes back on (first-time cheekpieces). |
50/1 |

1st Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
The latest of his seven wins on turf was in April 2024 off today's mark; out of form on last three starts last year, including with slow starts, and has since left the Newland/Insole stable; no tongue-tie or other headgear today, for the first time since 2021. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Five wins in 2025 (all at 5f; on good, heavy and soft ground); had trip and draw excuses for first two runs this year but he'd shot his bolt over a furlong out at Goodwood last time out; might do better back on a more conventional track and the change in the weather brings him into it. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Very productive in 2025, winning five times; hindered by wide draw at Chester most recently, otherwise has a good record over 5f; just needs to prove he can overcome current mark. |
12/1 |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 2 |

Posted duck eggs over 6f in last two appearances, not beaten entirely by the trip; has a very good record at 5f but faces a harder task off current mark at this level, especially from an unfavourable draw. |

Runner-up at Brighton 11 days ago (7f, good) in a race he won the previous season; that was a Class 5 and he has never won at this loftier level, but there are no wellbeing issues. |

Won this race off today's mark on last season's reappearance outing but has disappointed on all three subsequent appearances, the latest a fortnight ago; returns here with a point to prove. |

11th Nov 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has often started slowly but he's taken things to the next level the past twice, refusing to jump away either time; is quite capable off this mark if in the mood but comes with obvious risks attached. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

Comes with major risks attached as he was badly out of form on turf last month and refused to race at Redcar last week, while he's untested beyond about 1m; however, his last two wins have come here and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not ruled out now back on this track. |

Has some fairly useful form on his CV but was largely disappointing for Nikki Evans last summer and has finished well down the field on both starts for new stable this year (7f/1m); revival needed. |

Two wins and a second from three visits to Nottingham, all over this trip on fast ground; 1lb higher than for his latest second; one to take seriously. |

Has a patchy profile but he won at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in May and finished close-up in sixth there 18 days ago; remains feasibly treated on his win in this race last year and he's 2-2 at Nottingham; interesting contender. |

Sole win was in an Irish maiden 16 months ago but he's very well treated on his best form and was back on track with a good third at Leicester (7f, good to soft) ten days ago; same mark now back down in grade; in the mix. |

25th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won 7f maiden in Ireland as 3yo; modest form in 7f and 1m handicaps for both yards in Britain, despite dropping down the weights; switches to AW under a cloud but from an excellent family and his dam won her only AW start so not impossible he will improve; visor refitted. |
