2nd 5 (3) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner as a 2yo and back to form when successful at Kempton (7f; solid form) in October; below that level twice since but better than the result when seventh of 12 over C&D latterly having been caught wide from the outside stall; has fared better with the draw this time and could be dangerous having dipped to only 1lb above the mark he defied at Kempton. |
11/2 |

22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Ran okay in a hot race over C&D last month and duly built on that when winning by a cosy neck 12 days ago (also C&D); major claims off 3lb higher; a positive showing from Waistcoat, who he beat last time, in the 6.40 would increase confidence. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Good second over 6f here in April when rated 7lb higher; not come close to that level since, including over C&D 16 days ago; drops in class but with enough to prove. |

30th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Gelded prior to his latest start and he showed improved form in finishing third of 14 in a 0-75 at Windsor (1m, good; favourite); didn't enjoy the cleanest run through on that occasion and he's open to further progress; one to take seriously. |
11/4 |

3rd 12 (5) |
17th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Fourth of ten in maiden at Newbury (1m, soft) in April looked promising considering how badly he swerved to his left leaving the stalls; although not so marked, that behaviour at the start has been repeated on both outings since and he's made backward steps, the latest in a 6f handicap debut; gelded since; bit too early to forget that Newbury promise. |

8st 11lb |
Infrequent winner who's found his level again in lesser handicaps of late having missed almost a year; gave his running once more behind Ajrad over C&D 11 days ago and is 7lb better off but the winner had a good bit in hand that day. |

14th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

11 months off before this season and returned to some form when second of 13 over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; capable of better last term, including on soft, so he's back in place contention, but no win since 2022. |

26th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Two good efforts at about 7f in novices in the autumn (both on good), winning one at Beverley, but a weak finisher in two handicaps this year, over 1m2f and 1m; needs to show he's worth his current mark back at 1m2f. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple wins include four over C&D; his losing AW run goes back two years but he's on a handy mark now and showed he can make it pay when close up at Bath (1m) recently after getting checked in his run; blinkers return and Oisin Murphy rides for the first time; can be involved. |

Big prices and out of the frame in three starts since returning in April, albeit he met trouble when finishing in midfield in the Carlisle Bell (7.7f, soft) last month; 4lb lower than for the latest of two wins in April last year; interesting. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |

Two wins last April (1m, AW/soft) and he's 1lb lower than when last successful; the return to slow turf could also be a plus; however, he's failed to shine on either outing this season and has something to prove. |

7yo who has an impressive 8-28 strike-rate and is effective on Tapeta; he may have needed his comeback run at Newmarket last month but was beaten a long way at 66-1, and he was also below par last May/July on his final two outings last season; plenty to prove. |

Six wins from 37 starts, the most recent success coming at Southwell (1m, AW) in March; ran respectably here on the AW 19 days ago, taking his form figures since the visor was applied to 314, but he's 0-7 on turf. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Aided by new visor on his two starts this year, latterly when exploiting a much reduced mark at Southwell (1m) last month; that form has been well advertised by the runner-up since and this C&D also suits; shortlisted. |

Both wins have been gained over 1m at this track; last success was off 8lb higher last January but he's been generally disappointing since and was beaten 7l at Kempton (1m) three weeks ago; has a change of headgear but he looks opposable back in trip. |
