12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Pretty useful on the Flat at his best, superior to stablemate Ribba Hill; ridden out to win at Taunton (2m, good) after a break and the winner got away from him (he was beaten 12l) when he was penalised here over 2m4f; can be given another chance despite another 2lb, especially back in trip. |
5/2 |

2nd 3 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Pretty useful on the Flat at his best; didn't show much in first four hurdle runs but he really got his act together when landing a gamble in a Taunton handicap (2m, good) last Tuesday; has a penalty but that was a convincing win and he's respected on this step back up in trip. |

1st 4 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Pretty useful on the Flat at his best but lost his way in that scene last May/June and has made a quiet start over hurdles; 33-1 and upped to 2m5f when pulled up on handicap hurdle debut last time. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent and has failed to shine on last two starts but may have been unsuited by soft ground then Tapeta; runner-up at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) in August then fifth of 15 at Thirsk (7f, good) where he was denied a clear run, and it will be no surprise if he bounces back with a big effort. |
20/1 |

5th 11 (5) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Three turf wins to his name; patchy record in 2025 though and others are more appealing in today's field. |
10/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Looked unfortunate when beaten less than a length into second of seven at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) last month and didn't enjoy a clear run when fifth of 15 at Thirsk (7f, good) since; acts on ground ranging from good to firm to good to soft; still 2lb below last winning mark; a player. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 185y |
11st 4lb |
Flat maiden makes his hurdling/stable debut back from a 520-day absence; some decent efforts in defeat in 2024 but best watched for now; first run since being gelded. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Inconsistent sort who made it 1-20 on turf (that grass win came here in 2yo campaign) when well beaten at Royal Ascot last month; however, two starts ago he was a close sixth in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) when he was denied a clear run, and he's not ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
18th 12 (18) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Eye-catcher, amid traffic issues, in the Thirsk Hunt Cup last time; form over C&D comprises a respectable eighth (off current mark) in this contest last year and creditable third (did well having been hampered) later in 2025; still has a much better strike-rate on AW than on turf, however. |
22/1 |
|
6th 4 (15) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Three fine efforts on AW to start the year but his run of good form came to a halt when well behind Blue Rc at Newcastle over Easter; acts on turf but has a much better strike-rate on AW; drawn widest. |

21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Has done little across his six starts and needs to show something very new. |
66/1 |
|
6th 6 (2) |
2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Has shown very little across his five starts and was well beaten at 100-1 off a basement mark on his handicap debut this summer. |
50/1 |
|
9th 13 (1) |
1st Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Finished last in 2023 on all three Flat runs (7f/1m) and beaten 40l when the last to finish in a hurdle race one month ago; cheekpieces go on for this handicap debut. |
33/1 |
