20th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Drawn a blank since his Ffos Las nursery win (6f) in September 2023; big prices and well beaten in four runs for John Butler but he ran better than the distance beaten at Lingfield 17 days ago (forced a strong pace and weakened quickly in the final furlong); tumbling down the weights and he needs a close look in the betting now back sprinting. |

Yet to add to 6f turf win for Jack Channon in September 2023 and was safely held on all three starts for John Butler in the autumn (7f-1m); lurks on a dangerous mark though and needs a check in the betting. |

Ran okay at Salisbury last time (6f handicap) but that was off a modest mark and he's now 0-12; faces no easy task at these weights. |

30th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won a 6f nursery at Lingfield (good to firm) off 5lb lower; no progress since and she needs the step up to 7f to give her a lift. |
7/1 |
|
4th 1 (2) |
13th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Looked one to keep onside when making a successful nursery debut at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) in July, but not matched that form in either start off this mark (both in cheekpieces) since; needs to bounce back and perhaps fast ground suits her better. |
9/2 |

3rd 2 (3) |
1st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Yard won two of the last three runnings of this; patiently ridden from a wide stall when winning off 6lb lower at Lingfield in July (6f, good to firm) but was some way below that level on to soft ground in first-time cheekpieces (retained) latest, which gives her something to prove. |

8st 10lb |
Inconsistent but he ran one of his good races when a close third at Nottingham 19 days ago (6f, good to soft); fully effective over C&D; not ruled out for a stable that also run Nordic Glory. |

Turf (good to firm) and AW winner over 6f; best turf RPR came on good to soft but other form on slow ground makes that look an anomaly; plenty to prove based on last three starts. |

1st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Inclined to pull hard on her nursery debut at Leicester last time, when having Professor Tickle just behind; is looking exposed now and needs to find more for the fitting of a tongue-tie. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
13th Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Belied 28-1 odds when keeping-on third in 6f York novice last month, her third start, and did not enjoy run of the race when beaten favourite at Pontefract a fortnight ago; makes nursery debut today; may still have more to offer. |
7/1 |

4th 4 (6) |
30th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
She improved for the step up to 6f (good) when third of eight at York 16 days ago, keeping on well (solid Topspeed figure to boot); that effort sets the standard but she does need to match it back down in trip. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Useful effort in defeat at Beverley (about 7f) last May and confirmed that stiff tracks suit when winning here (7f, good to firm; sole course start) in August; improved again when successful at Ayr later and no surprise if he comes on plenty from first two runs in 2026. |
16/1 |

10th 12 (7) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
All four wins over 7f, once on this track; probably stays further and is worth another go over 1m but he was last to finish on his comeback here over 7f in April and likely other days. |
25/1 |
|
13th 6 (9) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner; two wins in the second half of 2025 and he ended that campaign with a good second of 15 at Leicester in October; runs off the same mark but he could only manage a midfield finish in this race on his reappearance 12 months ago. |

5th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
There's been no improvement for the switch to handicaps and she was behind three of these when fifth of eight at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; needs to raise her game. |
50/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
15th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Some promise in her first three starts but she was a well-beaten 25-1 shot on her nursery debut at Ffos Las two weeks ago (6f, good to soft); dropped 3lb but others look stronger. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (5) |
1st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Drop to 5f on Polytrack didn't look ideal last time; she'll need to improve a bit now entering nurseries but that's quite possible and market strength would make her of interest. |

The winner of three of her 23 starts, with the wins coming at 33-1, 20-1 and 66-1; on a feasible mark and should be sharper for last month's return to action/stable debut; not ruled out. |
