14th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Both wins came over 1m2f in the spring of 2024, including here; 0-18 subsequently and he's still 7lb above his last winning mark, but he goes well fresh (has won after a longer break) and finished third on his comeback in this race last year; likely to be competitive. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Has run some really good races in defeat this season, including over C&D on good/good to firm; latest soft-ground Ascot second (Grizedale third) shows he's still in form but he's been beaten on his last 17 starts and suspicion he might find at least one too strong again. |

16th Nov 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Had soft ground as a possible excuse for his no show in the Balmoral at Ascot last month and solid record in handicaps before that, including fourth in Hunt Cup and a defeat of subsequent Cambridgeshire winner Liberty Lane at Doncaster (1m2f) in September; has a 2-2 AW record; no surprise were he to make his presence felt in this higher grade. |

19th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Fine fourth in Royal Hunt Cup over C&D (good to firm) in June then won at Doncaster (1m2f, good) last month, overhauling Liberty Lane who went one better in the Cambridgeshire next time; showed promise on soft in 2yo maiden; a 4lb rise isn't harsh and this progressive 4yo is a possible player. |

18th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Lightly raced since finishing second in this two years ago when 4lb higher; he may have needed his comeback run at Newbury in May but was well beaten and needs to be an entirely different proposition two months on. |

16th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Fairly consistent and is capable of being involved off current mark; however, lacks recent match practice (off since November) and hasn't won for over three years; not the percentage call. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Has proved consistent since reappearing for Jack Morland in January (4243514) with the win coming at Haydock (10.5f, good to firm) in August; record around here (1m3f/1m4f) reads 123 and another big run would be no surprise. |

13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Mostly competitive off reduced marks for new yard this season and Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago saw him lead final 1f to break a long losing run, doing it in good style too; back up 5lb but he used to be effective on a range of ground and has returned to serious calculations. |

4th Jun 2026 Yielding 1m 1f 0y |
9st 2lb |
All six wins in Britain came on the AW; first success on turf came last month over this trip at Ballinrobe, quickening off a slow pace, despite racing keenly; 6lb rise but remains on a workable mark. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |
8st 10lb |
All six wins came on the AW when trained in Britain; standout run for this yard came on opening day of season when runner-up in 26-runner Curragh handicap (heavy), most recently didn't seem to get home over this trip at Gowran last month (soft); stamina concerns remain. |

9st 6lb |
Career has been confined to 1m2f novice wins on Lingfield AW last December and this April; showed plenty of inexperience still when making all in a four-runner race last time but stacks of promise too and it would not be a surprise if he found the marked improvement necessary on this handicap debut. |

Created a good impression over C&D on debut in December, beating one who has since been placed in Listed event; should be wiser for that experience and looks the one to beat. |
