31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ran creditably for minor honours in two (1m5f/2m2f) of his four starts in last year's Flat campaign and won novice hurdles in December and January when last seen; however, although he won on good ground two years ago, his record since has been dominated by achievements on softer. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Useful Flat performer who got off the mark over hurdles at the third attempt at Wetherby (2m, soft) four weeks ago; he's open to further improvement in this code and could have a big part to play under a penalty. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 170y |
8st 11lb |
English raider has won three of his 10 starts on turf; best recent form has come on testing ground; beaten 2.25 off this mark in a class 4 handicap at Musselburgh latest (2m2f, gd-sft); needs the heavens to open. |

16th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not an immediate hit in handicaps but the step up to 2m saw him win twice on turf and once over C&D; foiled in the four-timer at Southwell but he lost nothing in a tenacious defeat to one who is now 3-3 at distances beyond 2m (first two well clear); up another 3lb but looks sure to go well. |

2nd 11 (11) |
29th Aug 2024 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Typical improver from the yard who bids for a four-timer after two wins over 2m on turf and a particularly emphatic success at Kempton (2m, Polytrack); has been hit with another 10lb rise for that latest success, but folly to rule him out given the possibility of further progress. |

1st 8 (10) |
7th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
A few costly defeats in early summer but has got it together since tackling this trip and may well have more to offer upped another 5lb on his AW debut (is a half-brother to a Polytrack winner); is shortlisted for a stable in its usual high-summer form. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Went back-to-back (1m2f/1m3f on a sound surface) for Charlie Johnston last spring and is now 8lb below the latter winning mark after some lesser efforts for that yard; picked up for 1,000gns in October and is another to keep an eye on in the betting on this stable debut. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice in the spring and now 7lb lower than for the second of them (1m3f, good to firm); little to shout about since May, however, and he needs the drop in class to revive his fortunes. |
6/1 |

7th 2 (8) |
21st Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Completed a double (1m2f/1m3f) off higher marks in the spring but not in the same form since, latterly in headgear. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable fourth in the Great Metropolitan on last year's card; one win last year but it did come here in July and he was a respectable second at this track (also 1m2f, good to soft; has won on good) in September; below par over 1m on his final start in October and this trip again asks a question; market might help ahead of his comeback. |
10/1 |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Usually gives his running and best of the rest behind an in-form rival at Epsom a month ago (1m2f, good to soft); that is more his trip though. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Course winner (1m2f) when trained by Archie Watson; struggled for this yard in 2025 and the addition of a tongue tie and return of cheekpieces aren't enough to tempt. |
50/1 |
|
9th 6 (9) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has dropped down the weights and his trainer is among the winners; however, he's struggled in the main this season and has been beaten 16 times since his sole win in March 2024. |
16/1 |
|
9 (3) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win came for previous trainer Archie Watson over 1m2f at Newcastle (11-8 favourite) in March 2024; 0-11 for this trainer and continues to slide in the weights; has plenty of work to do with Monhammer and Ahamoment on recent C&D evidence. |
