9th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has won six of her last eight races, all over 1m, on ground varying from good to firm to heavy; on a career-higher mark and didn't run up to her best at Sandown last time, but no surprise if she were to bounce back. |

5th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Made it 5-6 this season and over this trip when winning over C&D off a 3lb lower mark four weeks ago; that was a weak handicap but she won't mind the faster ground and looks the one to beat again. |

9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won here over 7f in February either side of wins over this trip at Kempton; encountered a wide trip when down the field in a higher grade than this last time and he may well be able to bounce back. |
8/1 |
|
8th 11 (8) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Arrives seeking a four-timer, two of the wins over C&D, and he hasn't been treated punitively by the assessor having gone up just 6lb; this is a much stiffer test of his credentials but there are no doubts surrounding his wellbeing. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Has started 2026 with wins over C&D and in a small field at Wolverhampton (7f); only 1lb higher on the hat-trick bid but this is more competitive and he's drawn widest. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Suddenly bounced back to form when heavily punted at Bangor (2m4f, good; tongue-tie refitted) in May, but recent efforts have been underwhelming and this drop back in trip may not be ideal; considered only if the subject of another big market move. |
8/1 |
|
5th 2 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Returned to form in a reapplied tongue-tie (retained since) and justified strong market support at Bangor (2m4f, good) in March; mixed form since, however, and only fifth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last month following a break and wind surgery; needs to raise his game and is unproven at the trip. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 |
26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Back today from a second wind operation and it took him a while to find his form after the first; only four ran when third in his latest race and he does look on a stiff mark, 10lb higher than for the easy Bangor win in March. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Career-best effort when making all up the rail at Lingfield (7f, good) in June; not so good since and his five runs on ground slower than good have seen him finish unplaced. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (1) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Returned from a break with an all-the-way win under James Glennon at Lingfield (7f, good) in June and he's fine at 1m; however, he's finished merely seventh on his last two starts and has to raise his game. |
20/1 |
|
7th 7 (11) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Eight-time winner (7f/1m) at a lower level, including when he comfortably made all at Lingfield (7f, good) at the start of last month; 50-1 when he made no impact in this grade at Sandown three weeks ago, however. |

9th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has not finished closer than 8l to a winner in his five starts including two handicaps (1m, good/heavy); mark is falling but this step up to 1m4f needs to make a big difference. |

15th Jun 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Made a pleasing debut in April but beaten 14l and 19l since then, latterly losing all chance at the start; has time to steady the ship but this is no easy start to handicap career. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Frequent slow-starter who's run well a few times over C&D without winning and is on a handy mark; fared best of the near-side group at York before a solid effort from a wide stall at Wolverhampton; goes on the shortlist under Billy Loughnane. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 7 (10) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Previous C&D winner but often hindered by starting slowly; sixth of 21 at York (6f, good to firm) last month in first-time cheekpieces (left off here); another win is overdue but he doesn't look ready to strike. |
6/1 |
|
6th 19 (16) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Bids for his third straight win in this race, 2lb higher than for his 2024 win and 1lb higher than 12 months ago; slow starts have been an issue in recent outings but he retains ability and it will be no surprise to see him go well with cheekpieces now given a go. |
