9th 14 (12) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Ran well on Southwell AW on his seasonal return but three heavy defeats have followed (either side of a wind operation); dropping down the weights but this looks a tough race in which to try to rediscover his best. |
66/1 |

18th 8 (18) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Had some strong form as a 3yo, including at York, and he returned to action in March with a good third at Southwell (5f, AW); two heavy defeats have followed (had a wind op after the first) and he arrives with a point to prove. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Third of 22 in 3yo handicap over C&D (good to firm) at this meeting 12 months ago and progressive on AW since; soft ground may not have suited at Musselburgh last time and he's had wind surgery since; however, a career best is needed today and he has to prove he's just as good on turf as AW. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Steadily progressive and posted another personal best when third at Southwell (5f, AW) on reappearance; his turf form is at a lower level but he still won at Thirsk last spring and finished third in a big field at York's Dante meeting (both 5f, good to firm); race-fit and should be in the thick of things again if a low draw doesn't count against him. |
5/1 |

3rd 6 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; thumped ten rivals in a C&D handicap last July and ran well off his revised mark (1lb lower today) back here in September; found the Group 1 Abbaye too hot to handle when last seen in October; won after a break last spring but he was well ahead of his mark then and that probably isn't the case now. |
8/1 |
