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. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
All five starts on the two Newmarket courses for Charlie Appleby, showing consistent form as a 2yo but virtually pulling up on his 3yo reappearance in 2024; makes his stable/AW debut after two years off having been picked up for 28,000gns in October; market crucial. |

0-9 on AW but caught the eye over 10.5f on debut for this stable in early December, keeping on for fifth and not far behind Nakasero (7lb better off now); unsuited by 1m the last twice and could improve plenty for this longer trip; interesting. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Has only won a novice when aged two; has threatened in handicaps from 7f to 1m3f but now has to get himself back on track after three lesser shows. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Sole win came in a 1m novice as a 2yo and although he's run some good races on downhill tracks this year, including over C&D (good; acts on soft), he isn't obviously ahead of his mark; should be thereabouts even so. |
11/2 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Sole win was in a Haydock novice two years ago; plenty of good runs for new yard this season but he was disappointing at Windsor on Saturday and needs to bounce back on this quick turnaround. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Tough and consistent sort who won the C&D Spring Cup on 2025 reappearance but couldn't get a clear run in it this time round; third in this race last year and 9lb higher today but he's an each-way contender. |
10/1 |

18th 3 (11) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Tough and consistent sort who won this race (good ground) on his reappearance 12 months ago and finished second in the Balmoral Handicap at Ascot in the autumn; starts the new season on a career-high mark but he's impossible to rule out. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Acts on soft; has mostly run well in warm 7f/1m handicaps this season, never better than when dead-heating for second in a valuable event at Ascot 11 days ago; this first Listed assignment makes for a different scenario but he has the form to be not far away. |

Off the mark with a last-gasp win over C&D (soft) in July but she's finished a well-held fourth in both subsequent runs (AW/turf); only 1lb higher than for her win but she's now 1-10 and has bit to prove again. |

28th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Off the mark at the 13th attempt when scoring with tongue-tie reapplied at Windsor (1m, good; 18-1) 12 days ago; that was a narrow win but he's only 3lb higher here and has possibilities if he can transfer his form back to AW. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Still a maiden after 29 starts but bettered low-key seasonal debut when close second from out of the weights over C&D (good to soft) last week and is effectively 4lb lower today; also suited by faster ground; obvious contender if in similar form. |
11/4 |

2nd 12 (6) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Runner-up twice here (including 7f) last year but he's still a maiden after 28 starts; well-held fifth on 1m Bath reappearance five weeks ago and it's likely the wait for a first win will go on. |

Turf winner at 6f; maiden on AW and below best in two AW handicaps at this trip but he's dropped a few pounds since making his yard debut and remains of interest on autumn form with Rossa Ryan up for the first time. |
