24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple Flat winner who was contesting only his second handicap over hurdles when winning with the front two clear over C&D (good) three weeks ago; a 6lb rise isn't the end of the world by any means. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Showed fair form on his third hurdles start when runner-up at Stratford in October; below that form when fifth of seven at Exeter (2m7f, good to firm) on his handicap debut later that month; still early days and may show more here. |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple 1m4f-2m winner on the Flat; effective in blinkers in that sphere and these aids now return for handicap debut over hurdles after racing lazily when second in a Stratford novice (2m4f); considered. |

29th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won at Bath (soft; acts on heavy) in April and ran respectably most starts since; however, he was a remote seventh behind Miller Spirit over C&D 17 days ago, despite starting favourite at a track he does handle. |
10/1 |

7th 6 (8) |
12th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won at Bath (1m3f, soft) in April and has run creditably on most starts since, at up to 1m6f; unlikely to be far away if she handles this track. |
7/1 |

5th 1 (5) |
6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won here in 2022 but has not fared so well in his three subsequent visits; won at Bath (1m3f, soft) in April and has run creditably over 1m6f in three of his four races since, so has each-way claims. |

22nd Feb 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
One win in 18 starts came in a four-runner hurdle in November and form of that race is decidedly shaky; poor under both codes since then including when well behind Reverberation over C&D in December. |
20/1 |

28th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Lowly rated maiden on the Flat; won what turned out to be a very uncompetitive juvenile hurdle here (2m1f, heavy) in November but was pulled up when back in a handicap hurdle at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) recently. |

5th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Habitual slow-starter who again got going too late to land a blow when seventh of 13 at Kempton (1m3f) ten days ago; the visor he wore that day is retained; has just one win from 15 goes and needs something extra. |
8/1 |

3rd 4 (7) |
6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has had just two AW races, including when second as 2yo; sole win (13 races) came over 1m4f at Ffos Las last August off 2lb higher, on the first of two starts with a tongue-tie which returns today; not so good since, with blinkers on last two outings, but the tongue-tie might help. |

16th May 2023 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sea The Stars colt who was beaten favourite on latest AW start (1m4f) but maintained his consistency by taking form figures to 223; open to progress now handicapping on turf; William Buick a positive booking; interesting contender. |
7/2 |

3rd 5 (2) |
24th Feb 2023 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Second to a better-fancied stablemate on debut and ran to a similar level when clear runner-up to a stablemate of Legacy Power's last time (both at Kempton); sets the standard on either of those efforts. |
6/4 |

2nd 5 (6) |

dwelt start, in rear, headway and went second with one circuit to go, ridden over 2f out, hung right 1f out, kept on but held final furlong |

5th Jun 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won 1m3f maiden here on debut last April and added a Wolverhampton 1m4f race in her second handicap; consistent in defeat afterwards as 3yo and has a competitive mark if resuming in the same form, but she ended last term suggesting that about 1m6f may be ideal. |

2nd 5 (8) |
18th Oct 2023 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 2-3 on AW when scoring at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in June but she has a solid record back on turf since and has finished a creditable third on soft ground in last two runs (1m4f/1m6f); now drops back into a Class 4 event and she shouldn't be far away. |
