11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Short-head winner at the other Newmarket track (1m6f, good to firm; made all) on second start this term and nearly made it 3-3 under Saffie Osborne at Goodwood (1m6f, good; led over 1f out) later in May, holding Dancing In Paris by a short head but pipped by subsequent Royal Ascot winner French Master; up 2lb today, as is Dancing In Paris, and looks a leading contender. |

24th May 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Immediately back to best with his two runs this season, tenaciously making all for a short-head win at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) on latest; that made it 2-2 under Saffie Osborne; 5lb higher today; big question to answer were the ground softer than good but he otherwise looks set to run well. |

3rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Not beaten far into fifth in a 2m handicap here four weeks ago; on a fair mark but others bring more persuasive claims. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Got off the mark at the 15th attempt over hurdles at Stratford (2m, good) 16 days ago; 5lb rise will make it tougher but looks sure to run his race and unlikely to be far away. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Bath (1m2f, firm), beating Galaxy Wonder by half a length on the latest occasion; up another 2lb, but still a big player in his current mood. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Most wins on the AW but it was his third success on the grass when coming home 2.5l to the good over C&D two weeks ago; defying the 5lb rise shouldn't be beyond him. |
9/2 |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf but he's in form, creditable third at Lingfield on Good Friday last time; gained last win off 5lb higher (in July 2024); shortlisted. |

9th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |

C&D winner in February and again ran well here in May; chance on that peak form but he was rather disappointing back here a month ago. |
7/1 |

6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner in February and creditable C&D third in May; none of his five runs on turf have yielded much, so perhaps his last three outings can be forgiven; the latest was in first-time blinkers; player if straight back to form now he's returned to Kempton. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |

Three Flat wins but no joy over hurdles so far, including in two handicaps; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces; best watched. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 169y Class 5 |

Won three on the Flat but doesn't look up to much over hurdles; completely tailed off on handicap debut here when friendless in the betting; tries two new forms of headgear. |

Three Flat wins (1m2f-11.5f); beaten 24l, 50l, and 49l respectively in three attempts over hurdles; switches to a novice handicap but it is easy to look elsewhere. |

Hard to predict these days and losing run is up to 13, but he had an excuse over 1m5f last time and is now 4lb lower than for his C&D win (good to firm) last summer; could be dangerous back in trip. |

23rd Jan 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Was snapping a losing run when prevailing narrowly at Lingfield (1m4f) but then followed up over the same C&D ten days ago, defying a 4lb penalty without being overly pressed; only 2lb higher for this despite another penalty, but stamina for 2m is unproven. |

took keen hold, prominent, steadied into midfield with one circuit to go, hung left over 1f out, pushed along and ran on well inside final furlong, led final 110yds, comfortably |
