4lb higher than for his latest determined success at Southwell (6f; form looks solid) but that still leaves him extremely well treated on his 2023 best; the one to beat. |

1st 6 (1) |
5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just two Tapeta runs, winning the latest at Newcastle (7f) last January; treading water for much of 2023 but down in the weights and his recent second at Chelmsford (7f; short-priced favourite) was a lot better; can be effective back at 6f but this is a quick return for one who regularly has breaks between races. |

9th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Three 1m Polytrack wins since November, the latest in a small-field C&D claimer six weeks ago; more needed back in a handicap but he's not ruled out; cheekpieces left off today. |

30th May 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

Front-runner; wore cheekpieces on last five starts, including three good runs (one 1m win) on Chelmsford Polytrack this February-April but below form there on latest outing; made less of an impact early in 2024 on his two runs here; wore a hood earlier in career and it's now restored; considered. |

Conditions to suit and this mark shouldn't be beyond him; he does need to bounce back from a couple of low-key runs in February though. |

Over two years since the last of his seven wins; several good runs in 2025, including when keeping on for second over 1m four weeks ago; 1lb higher this evening but back at his optimum trip. |

16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Made it an amazing seven wins for the year, all from the front, over C&D on Friday; subsequent 1lb rise and 4lb penalty sees him still just below his highest successful mark and there's every chance he can complete a two-month eight-timer. |
7/4 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
He was recording his 11th course win when making all in a Class 5 over C&D ten days ago, completing a six-timer in the process; 1lb well in under his penalty, well drawn and dropping in grade, so a seven-timer is beckoning. |
2/1 |

1st 7 (8) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

On a six-timer; all out to defy a double penalty over C&D 15 days ago and will need more off 5lb higher, especially as they claimed 5lb last time; still respected given the form he's in. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who needs to produce more than he's managed the last twice but before those he was a creditable fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not written off. |
14/1 |

5th 1 (8) |
18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last month and ran well enough to think he's still in reasonable form when fifth in a higher grade than this at Haydock last time; in the mix. |
15/2 |

6th 10 (2) |
28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last weekend which gives him a fighting chance here but he has a better overall record on that track than this one and remains on much the same mark as when well adrift of Trilby here in April. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ended a long losing run in this race last year but he's 0-15 since and has been hard to predict; now 3lb lower than for that last success but he faded at Doncaster last time and he comes with risks attached. |
11/2 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a losing run when the comfortable winner of a 5f handicap at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark; he was returning from a short break when fourth of 13 at Pontefract 17 days ago and that effort can be upgraded as he was wider than ideal as the field turned for home; each-way shout. |
8/1 |

4th 14 (5) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Hold-up sprinter who is on the same mark as when seeing off nine rivals at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm); in and out afterwards but the return of blinkers should help now back from 138 days off. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Four wins include one over C&D (good) in May 2024; hasn't scored since August of that year but he's now 20lb lower and latest fourth of 13 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) was a solid effort despite hanging; should enhance creditable Brighton form figures of 21424. |
4/1 |
|
4th 13 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-30 on AW but he's won four times on turf (7f); struggled during the winter but he returned to this scene with a respectable effort at Yarmouth (6f, good) last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this step back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |

9st 5lb |
Can front-run; three of his four wins have been at this track but he's been disappointing since his C&D win in October; still 3lb higher than for that last success and he needs to turn things around. |

6th 3 (6) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Can front-run; three of his four wins have been at this track (6f/1m), with the most recent coming in October; below his best when fourth at Southwell (1m, AW) last time but that was his first start for 75 days and he may come on for it; can be competitive back to 7f. |

3rd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Got off the mark on turf at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) in June off 1lb lower mark when making all; he had to use up energy to lead from a wide stall and didn't have much left once headed when fifth at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) nine days ago; chance if able to dominate from the front. |
8/1 |

5th 6 (9) |
25th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Free-going front-runner who has won three times this year, most recently here (7.4f, good to firm) in June; suffered worrying dip in form afterwards but steadied the ship with respectable fourth at Epsom (7f, good) last week and will be fine over today's trip; no surprise if he makes a bold bid. |
8/1 |

4th 3 (1) |
16th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Triple all-the-way winner already in 2024 and perfectly drawn to attack this time, but can sometimes prove too free for his own good and hasn't beaten anything home since the most recent success; risks attached. |
