19th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Lightly raced 5yo whose only two defeats came at Meydan; 3-3 in British races, including a couple of clearcut wins over 7f on good ground since wearing cheekpieces, latest at Goodwood; gives the impression (backed up by pedigree) that he'll be as effective back at 1m; trainer landed this prize in 2010 and 2021; big player with further progress on the cards. |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won the Golden Mile here (good to firm) last August and third in the Cambridgeshire (1m1f, soft) in September; he's failed to shine this season but is on a handy mark if the return to Goodwood prompts a revival. |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Performed well in major handicaps at Glorious Goodwood (won) and Newmarket (placed) last term; however, needs to step up plenty on his 2025 efforts, latest over C&D behind My Cloud. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Drew a blank during regressive 2025 campaign and down the field on reappearance at Chepstow three weeks ago; however, he left last season's comeback run well behind to post 33-1 third on his next start, and he's not discounted off a reduced mark. |
12/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |

Went winless in 2025 but he posted some good placed efforts, signing off with a solid third in 1m Leicester handicap in October; not out of it if fully tuned up for his seasonal return so worth a market check. |

10th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Dual Tapeta winner who ran well from a wide stall on his Polytrack debut in August (first-time cheekpieces); not as good at Southwell last time but is back on his last winning mark and one of his wins came fresh, so the six-week break may help. |
10/1 |
|
14th 9 (6) |
29th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Can race too freely and hasn't won as often as one of his ability probably should, but he's on a good mark and turned in a solid effort in cheekpieces (retained) at Kempton two weeks ago; work to do with Ayr Harbour on that form though and his yard may have stronger claims with Kodi Lion. |

24th May 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Has form figures of 121 on turf, the wins in Class 5 races over 7f at Newmarket (good) and Newbury (good to firm); upped in grade but may have more to offer and looks interesting returned to this sphere with AW reappearance under her belt. |

Won at Kempton (7f, AW) in February and has a lower turf mark; however, well beaten on his last two starts, most recently at Ascot, and this 9yo is now 0-23 on grass; others are preferred. |

3rd Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Has come a stone down the weights this year and been expensive to follow lately; this is easier than he's used to, on his Tapeta debut, as the tongue-tie comes off and blinkers go back on, and a revival wouldn't be a shock. |

16th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Eight wins, the latest at Newmarket last summer (7f, good to soft) coming off 8lb higher; had some off-days in the meantime but last two efforts on ground that would have been on the fast side weren't too shoddy. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

5th 1 (1) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Began his 3yo campaign with a BHA mark of 93; a lot of water has flowed under the bridge since but he has bounced back to form for Adam Kirby, finishing second at Chelmsford in March (7f) before an easy win at Yarmouth ten days ago (6f, good to firm); 3lb well in under a penalty; obvious chance. |
6/4 |

1st 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
A fairly useful 7f winner at his best; gambled on for his new yard and and shaped well when second of 11 in 7f Chelmsford handicap 26 days ago, just edged out having been set plenty to do; up 3lb but he can make amends with cheekpieces refitted. |

10st 9lb |
0-14 for this yard but he went very close at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in February and again in April; last month's return to turf at Hamilton (1m1f, good to soft) wasn't up with those efforts though. |

Yet to win in 14 runs on turf (below-par both outings last season); has been in fair form without winning in a busy AW campaign this year; change of surface not sure to suit. |
