28th Dec 2024 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Gained his sole AW win on Kempton Polytrack (2m) but handled Tapeta in one attempt in 2022; only just lost out back at Kempton in October but his recent Lingfield run was a washout; turnaround not ruled out. |

3rd Dec 2024 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Said to have been suited by the return to the AW when winning at Kempton (2m, Polytrack) last autumn and duly bounced back from three ordinary turf efforts there in October; only 1lb higher than for that near miss and he's a big player if he can repeat the form. |

29th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Can front-run; completed a double over C&D last autumn; has come up short in his five starts since (three here) and was a notch below his best on last three occasions, but no fitness concerns and he's 1lb below his last winning mark. |
8/1 |

5th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Overall strike-rate of 6-20 and a four-time winner on the AW; finished behind Cello last time despite having the run of things but he's likeably reliable and should give backers a run for their money. |

8th 4 |
2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 4f 97y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Won this race last year (soft) from Robert Johnson and dictated the pace under Connor Beasley when taking a useful Newbury race (2m, good to firm) 13 days ago, from closing rivals including Kyle Of Lochalsh; up 3lb but this highly reliable sort will surely be seriously involved again. |
6/1 |

1st 7 (5) |
20th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
The Cesarewitch was his only disappointment for new yard last season and his win came at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f, soft); 7lb higher today, nudged up another 1lb following his second at Goodwood (2m, good) on reappearance; respectable fifth at Royal Ascot keeps him in each-way calculations. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
No win since May 2024 when trained by Sir Michael Stoute (below form last year for Kevin Ryan) but second of 14 off almost a career-low mark at Musselburgh (1m4f, good; under Zak Wheatley) one month ago was easily his most competitive show since; back up 2lb and needs to build on that revival. |
13/2 |

2nd 5 (4) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
No win since May 2024 when trained by Sir Michael Stoute; below form last year for Kevin Ryan, followed by a 22,000gns sale in October; he's 23lb below his peak mark but the tide needs to turn. |
25/1 |

13th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
On a losing run but he comes here on the back of a solid fifth of nine in 1m2f handicap at Pontefract 18 days ago; he can make his presence felt from a slipping mark with cheekpieces added. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Inconsistent for new yard in the second half of last year but posted wins at Musselburgh (2m2f, good to soft) and Nottingham (1m6f, heavy; when last seen); in the mix if at the top of her game on this reappearance. |
2/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (2m2f, good to soft) last month on second stable start and didn't see out the stiff finish at Pontefract (2m2f, soft) last time; she's not discounted now back down in trip. |
13/2 |

20th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Ultra game from the front when winning last week's 2m2f Musselburgh Gold Cup (good to soft); effectively 4lb lower with Ashley Lewis taking off 7lb, but she had a very yard race and this rise in class may find her out. |

16th Dec 2023 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't reappear until August and yet to really get going this year, although the pick of those four efforts did come over C&D; eased another 3lb since Kempton latest but it's not enough to tempt. |
