3rd 5 (1) |
1st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Record of only 1-8 for Andrew Balding and has looked quirky but he appeared to run very well in the Derby (1m4f, good to soft; 50-1 fifth of 16) most recently; has since changed ownership and stable; leading claims provided the Epsom effort is backed up. |
4/1 |

5th 14 (2) |
1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
His 2yo season was chaotic at times, including when winning a 1m AW novice, but there was no sign of awkwardness here on final 2yo start, nor when bearing up well in a tight finish to 1m Listed AW race on return; made most of the running and kept on steadily in 1m2f Listed race at Newmarket (good) since and this step up in trip should suit on pedigree; needs to find much more but the yard's outsiders have proved well worth a look in this race. |
50/1 |

2nd 4 (4) |
3rd May 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Quirky at times last year but proved straightforward in Newcastle Listed race (1m, AW) on reappearance, finishing a good second; bred to stay this new trip; possibilities provided he goes the right way. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Best form on AW but has won on turf and it was his best effort on grass when third of six at Newbury (2m, good; plugged on) three weeks ago; each-way shout. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip. |

16th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended his 2024 campaign with a hat-trick, scoring narrowly at Southwell (1m2f, AW) the final time and taking overall record to 4-11; this progressive sort is effective on turf and one to consider. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Third in this last year (soft) and arrives at the top of his game, having been a clear second to Whatsgoingonmarvin at Sandown (1m2f, soft) last month and a very close third of 14 at Nottingham (1m2f, good to soft) recently; key player if his preferred slow ground prevails. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 (16) |
8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 1m nursery here on heavy ground in October 2023 and it was soft going when he scored over 1m2f at Sandown last September; back-to-form second in the same Sandown race (soft ground again) last month and, although back up 3lb, that puts him into each-way contention. |
9/1 |
|
8 (13) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sent off the 11-8 favourite when winning this race 12 months ago (soft); came into that race in better form but he's 2lb lower today and his latest run (behind a few of these) wasn't as bad as the distance beaten might suggest; the more rain the better for him. |

12/1 |
|
10th 5 (10) |
27th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Showed promise on his second start, when under 4l fourth in a Windsor novice event (6f, good; first-time hood); not as good when upped to 1m at Kempton latest; initial mark no giveaway but he looks capable of improving now entering nurseries back down in trip. |
13/2 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
30th Aug 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Needs to settle better having been too free in both his races (at 6f), despite the hood going on at Windsor; has ability but there are concerns about him stepping up to 1m at this stage of his career. |

4th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Sole success came over C&D last August off today's mark; had excuses when bit slipped through the mouth at Windsor in June, and was lit up by first-time cheekpieces (retained) last time; needs to step up nevertheless. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 6 |

Yet to win on turf but had excuses when bit slipped through the mouth at Windsor last time; however, needs to step up nevertheless; first-time cheekpieces now applied. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Her win came on AW but she has run to a similar level on turf; lacklustre seasonal return at Bath six weeks ago but could prove a different proposition with that run behind her. |

30th Aug 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
In rear throughout and beaten 7l when 40-1 for his debut at Windsor (1m, good to firm; cheekpieces) in the novice for which early casualty Sayedaty Sadaty was odds-on; did show something, however, and is entitled to improve. |
10/1 |

7th 2 (6) |
13th Aug 2023 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Shalaa gelding; fifth foal; half-brother to 1m2f winner January (RPR 78); dam Group-placed 7f 2yo winner (stayed 12.5f; 106), sister to Oaks winner Was and two Group 3 winners; stable 2yos have been going well but this one wears headgear for debut and needs to be pretty good at the first attempt. |

Has shown winning potential around Wolverhampton but her finishing effort there 19 days ago was disappointing; cheekpieces now given a go but she's drawn widest and others may have her measure. |
