17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Smart sprinting 2yo whose four 5f wins included a Group 3 at Longchamp (good to soft) and Group 2 at Doncaster (good), both from the front; has to put a disappointing reappearance at York (favourite) behind him in this much better race. |

15th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Reappears carrying a 5lb penalty but he was a Listed, Group 3 and Group 2 winner last season, and his defeat of Big Mojo and Magnum Force in the Flying Childers reads extremely well; strong claims. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Wide-margin winner of a valuable sales race at the Curragh as a 2yo; hard to find the right race in a handful of starts since but he ran two fair races on the AW at the start of the year and this stiff 6f should be more up his street; can figure. |
10/1 |

11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
No match for Completely Random at Lingfield last month but the winner has done his bit for that form and it was a solid effort; one to consider. |

2nd 2 (7) |
17th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Useful 2yo; not at his best in two runs this winter but he has dropped 4lb and last time isn't the run to judge him on (too keen in a race not run to suit); not solid but too soon to write him off. |

9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Took a C&D nursery (heavy) this time last year and September's Windsor score reaffirmed her greater effectiveness on slow ground, so largely drying forecast not ideal; back down 2lb now unpenalised again, at least. |
16/1 |
|
9th 12 (10) |
8th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Seems ideally suited by testing ground, winning a nursery on heavy last season and running her best race for her new stable when powering home over C&D last week (soft); penalty demands more but she's coming here at the top of her game and that doesn't apply to several of her rivals. |
5/1 |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

Showed peak form on heavy ground last October for previous stable and may be more interesting when returned to such conditions; fourth start for current yard. |

18th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Needs to rebound, having been disappointing at Pontefract last week; scored comfortably in Ffos Las maiden (6f, heavy) the time before and a reproduction of that form would put him in the mix. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Classy sprinter who built on an eye-catching reappearance when justifying strong support in handicap at Windsor (5f, good) 12 days ago; found only one too good in French Listed event last summer and looks a strong contender back in this grade. |
5/2 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Chester (5f, good) last May and he's run some good races in big fields since including at York four days ago; finished eighth of 21 in that race but he didn't get much luck and that was an eye-catching effort after 235 days off; interesting contender. |
7/2 |
|
8th 3 (12) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Last season's 3yo campaign ended with two below-par runs but he may have been ready for a break; reappears on a competitive mark based on last summer's form in big-field 5f handicaps and Ryan Moore, who has an excellent 33% strike-rate for Clive Cox, is booked; could be involved. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Losing run stands at 14; twice a runner-up at Kempton over the winter (6f) but he hasn't beaten many rivals in five starts since April; return to 5f, drop in class and latest change of headgear not enough to tempt. |
25/1 |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark in 6f novice at Salisbury as 2yo but he's had some seriously poor results either side of wind surgery, failing to beat a rival on last four starts; visor replaces cheekpieces; hard to see the light. |
20/1 |

12th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won 6f turf novice as 2yo; finished placed in three of first four AW starts for this yard but he's been through difficult times since the spring, including when back from wind surgery latest; now in cheekpieces; risky. |

15th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Cut little ice in three novice/maiden sprints in the spring; upped in trip and fitted with cheekpieces for this nursery debut; worth a glance in the betting but others look much more solid. |

13th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Proved well suited by the step up to 7f in Newbury maiden (good to firm) last month on fourth start, making all for an emphatic success; faces a stiffer task upped in grade but may have more to offer at this trip. |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Gelded after a quiet debut and showed the benefit when runner-up at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) behind a Godolphin gelding who took four attempts to get off the mark; the form may not be good enough to win this and he tended to hang that day. |
