Well handicapped on his Yarmouth win (5f, good to soft) last summer but he has a mixed record this season and has finished down the field in last two runs; losing run is now up to 11 and others are more solid. |

Acts on any ground; successful in handicaps at this course (gamely) and Hamilton (impressively) in May/June; creditable third to Makarova at Sandown upped to Group 3 level, having kicked for home too soon in hindsight; currently in career-best form; could go well. |

29th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Successful in a Yarmouth 5f handicap in week one of the Racing League; latest 6f run easy enough to overlook and he's a contender back under suitable conditions (won the 5f handicap at the Racing League meeting at this track last September). |
14/1 |
|
14th 2 (10) |
12th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
All of his five wins have been at 5f; won two in a row in Bahrain in February and he landed a Racing League handicap at Yarmouth (good to firm) last month; hit a personal best with that success but this is tougher off 5lb higher and his only previous run at this trip resulted in a heavy defeat. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Good second over C&D last month but not quite in the same form back here 17 days ago; likely to run his race and more minor money could be on the cards; cheekpieces now added. |
9/1 |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Expensive to follow since joining Ivan Furtado but he usually gives his running; dropping back to 5f isn't sure to be of benefit. |

18th Oct 2023 Heavy 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Defied higher marks twice on home soil in 2021 and won in Bahrain last December; 0-12 this year but posted encouraging efforts the last twice, latest when 1l second at York (soft) last Friday; could well go one better. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 9 (14) |
13th Oct 2023 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Hasn't won in Britain since 2021 but some useful efforts in 2023, including here; needs things to go better at the start than they sometimes do if he's to play a part. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 6 (4) |
9th Sep 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Has drawn a blank this season but he retains a good chunk of ability, running well at Haydock in June off a 5lb higher mark and beaten under 4l in a hot York sprint latest; capable of a big run but slow starts have been a feature the last twice and that sounds a note of caution. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Trailblazer who is not the force he once was, but was runner-up at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last month; should give his supporters a run for their money but vulnerable to a late closer. |
7/2 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Twice a winner over C&D, including the corresponding event 12 months ago when rated 11lb higher; back to form when second at Windsor ten days ago, failing to hold the late thrust of Just Jump; his supporters should get a run for their money but he could just prove vulnerable late on. |
6/1 |

2nd 6 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Returned to form when third off 5lb higher at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in May; this 8yo has finished soundly beaten on both starts since but has been without cheekpieces, which return today and could be key. |

Ended 2024 with a pair of soft-ground 6f wins at Catterick, the second of them off 13lb higher; handicapper has held the upper hand this year but conditions will suit and he helps form a strong hand for Tim Easterby. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won this race in 2022 as a 5yo; no sign of his enthusiasm waning this year, winning three 6f handicaps, and stepping back up in trip will suit after two good 5f efforts last month; chance. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Ideally suited by an easy 6f or stiff 5f and knows how to win; turned in a solid effort at his beloved Sandown last weekend and remains reliable despite his age, but there's not much room for manoeuvre off this mark. |
5/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No great love for softer surfaces these days, but her present good heart still carried her to second at Lingfield latest (good to soft); record of 13412 in C&D class 5s includes June's win (good to firm); chance. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (5) |
22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |

Refound some form last two outings for first and second at Yarmouth; best efforts last year were better still but, despite form on testing ground earlier in career, she came last of six on last season's two runs on soft. |

2nd 1 (1) |

4th Oct 2023 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Handled testing ground when trained by Bryan Smart (ran well over C&D on soft as a 3yo); generally raced on a sounder surface for current stable, winning on good at Ayr in June; ran poorly at Yarmouth ten weeks ago but can go well fresh and he's not out of it. |

27th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |

Positive start for new stable, building on his Beverley reappearance second in April when going one better at Ayr (5f, good) eight weeks later; the Ayr form looks solid with the second and fourth successful next time; has won on soft; bold show likely. |
