9st 7lb |
No impact in two York sprints last month but he's slipped to a good mark and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue. |

Won first two starts at 5f on heavy and good to soft but things haven't been easy for him since, on turf or the AW, and has yet to prove 6f suits. |

Maiden was twice placed in Listed company as a 2yo but has been regressive this season while running well at times; poor in a Listed race at Ayr last time but this is more realistic. |

13th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Debut winner on the AW; beaten 4l and 3l in her two handicaps (5f, good) and slow starts didn't help; more to prove than some. |
9/2 |

31st Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Below par the last twice and from stall two she could do with breaking better than on last month's handicap debut at Newmarket; however, she showed speed and promise in the spring on her first two starts (5f, AW/good to soft) and judged on that evidence she could be on a handy mark. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Two wins on turf last season for Mark Usher (5f/6f) and he's continued to improve for his new yard, winning two in a row on AW earlier this year (5f); not at his best when seventh of 15 back on grass in a recent Listed race at Naas (5f, good) but shaped as though this return to 6f could be a positive; returns to a handicap and remains one to be interested in. |
11/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
British raider arrives in terrific form having won back-to-back 5f AW handicaps at Newcastle off 92 and Southwell off 99; effective on good ground; probably needs to improve again on first run in Listed company, but can't be discounted. |
13/2 |

1st 7 (8) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Progressive sprinter for Mark Usher; down the field in the Ayr Gold Cup on his stable debut last September but he was back on the up with a comfortable Newcastle success six weeks ago (5f; ridden by Tom Marquand); although visually impressive (good Topspeed figure too), the form has taken some knocks and he will need another career best if he is to defy a 7lb rise. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed 21-race maiden; went close in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in November but raced freely and dropped away over that C&D last month; down in grade but he will need to settle better back up in trip. |

5th 5 (6) |
27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

18-race maiden but placed in four of his last six starts (all in classified events from 6f-9.5f); experienced apprentice booked and he's more appealing than many. |

Lightly raced 3yo who has made the frame a couple of times in handicaps, but she needs something extra if she's to get off the mark today. |

Has not shown a great deal in three novice/maiden races this year (5f-6f); moves up in trip and has lowly mark for handicap debut but needs to improve. |
