4th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Tapeta winner as a 2yo; latest third of six here (1m6f; visored first time) wasn't a bad effort but it will need bettering if he's to come out on top today. |

3rd 5 (1) |
26th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Narrowly landed a Newcastle novice (1m, Tapeta) last October and second of four here (1m3f) in January, but three of his four efforts since have been moderate including at Kempton (2m, Polytrack) last time; needs to get back on track with a visor replacing blinkers. |

7th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Four AW runs much better than his three turf efforts; things didn't pan out his way on his first crack at 1m6f/first run in headgear last time and he can't be ruled out. |

23rd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
22-1 winner of the Group 3 Valiant Stakes at Ascot (1m, good) last July and good fourth in US Grade 3 (1m, firm) next time; of interest on that form but tailed off in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on reappearance at Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm) three weeks ago; unraced on slow ground. |
25/1 |

10th 5 (13) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Developed into a very useful sort last term, notably Group/Grade 3 performances at Ascot (won) and Kentucky Downs (ran well); chance of landing this prize depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |

4th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Made her name as a handicapper but popped up at 22-1 in a Group 3 at Ascot (1m, good) in July and was unlucky not to finish closer in America last time (1m Grade 3m, firm); however, whether she's up to this class is debatable, and rain could scupper things anyway (unraced on anything easier than good). |

29th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
13-race maiden; returned to form when dropped to this grade at Ayr (1m2f) three weeks ago, finishing second; rather exposed but may have a Class 6 event in him. |

2nd 10 (11) |
8th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
3yo maiden whose form has dipped since being gelded (consistent previously); well handicapped on best efforts but doesn't look poised to open his account. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time C&D winner, latterly after a five-month break off 4lb lower last August; another solid effort fresh when not far behind Lord Capulet and The Green Man four weeks ago and is 7lb better off with the winner; can miss the break but is considered. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (6) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has a fine record over C&D including three wins, four seconds and four thirds; didn't fire here in his final run last year but he remains feasibly treated on his best form and his last win was after a break; needs watching in the market back from 139 days off. |
12/1 |

3rd 7 (10) |
4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Unplaced in his three turf runs but a three-time winner on the AW and returns to grass in a good run of form; hard to dismiss. |

Son of Massaar has yet to make the frame in five starts, fifth of seven in 1m Redcar handicap 18 days ago; he needs to take a big step forward. |

17th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Signs of ability on debut over 1m on Newcastle AW in October but has made little impact since, including on handicap debut back at Newcastle last week; has work to do right now. |
25/1 |

10th 4 (1) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Some promise over C&D on debut last October; no progress since but his reappearance last month was after a 293-day absence; betting useful now handicapping at a low level. |

23rd Sep 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made a promising start in handicaps when runner-up at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) in January but he was well held here in his final two runs last winter; has been gelded and is still lightly raced but he has something to prove after seven months off. |

Made a promising start in handicaps when runner-up at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) last month but he failed to build on that when fourth of six over C&D last time; still lightly raced but he needs to kick on again to make a serious impact here. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to register a victory but he comes here on the back of a solid sixth of 11 in 1m1f handicap at Ayr four weeks ago; more is needed at these weights though if he is to get off the mark. |
20/1 |

6th 12 (4) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |

Longstanding maiden; had a wind op in November and ran one decent race on the AW in the winter (1.25l fourth of nine over 9.5f at Wolverhampton in February); below par next time; lacks consistency. |
