25th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
8yo who has been in and out this year and was soundly beaten at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last time but prior to that he won over today's C&D (soft) and can't be ruled out off this 4lb higher mark. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Retains ability aged eight and bagged a Class 2 prize at Doncaster (1m2f, soft) most recently, taking record to 10-56; back on career-high mark but drops back in grade; may well remain competitive. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
In top form when racking up a hat-trick last summer and back at that level when third over 1m2f at Newcastle (AW) and Chepstow (good to soft) this summer; never a threat after a slow start at Southwell last time but more than capable off this mark and Oisin Murphy takes the reins. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
4-9 over C&D including landing this race three years ago, but his starts have increasingly become a problem, flatly refusing to do so here in October; too risky. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Increasing tendency to blow the start last season culminated in a refusal to race on final appearance; that was at Newbury, where he'd previously been at his best; he's contrastingly 0-6 on AW and none of his form in this sphere lives up to today's mark; probably best watched. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Last four wins were over C&D, including on heavy last September and good to soft in same race this year; ran respectably off this 5lb higher mark (career high) at York latest; increasing tendency to blow the start is a major worry but C&D record puts him high on the list; also declared at Doncaster. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |

Won a low-grade handicap hurdle last summer but this is his first Flat run since 2024, and he needs to prove he's worth his current mark. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Has improved since handicapping, including a win at Stratford (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie) last month; may not have quite seen out the trip when third of seven there (2m3f, good to firm) 12 days ago, but very much of interest back at this distance; 1lb well in. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Five Flat wins in 2024, culminating in this race (1lb lower today); well suited by ploughing through the mud and best result this term came on soft, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; ran respectably here on good to soft last time and a bold show seems likely if he's in the mud today. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; respectable fourth in a Racing League event over 2m on Southwell's AW latest; feasibly handicapped and would enter the reckoning if the ground remains on the soft side. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |

Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024 on Flat; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up on penultimate start; beaten 20l when last on his sole AW start in 2023 and others have more compelling claims. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No win since May 2024 (1m2f, Bath) but she has fallen a long way in the weights as a result; may have needed her reappearance run at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month but she had a patchy record last season and others are more convincing. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

No win since May 2024 (1m2f, Bath) but she has fallen a long way in the weights as a result; bogged down on heavy ground at Nottingham last October; it's difficult to know what to expect returned to AW (0-11) off a six-month absence. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Sole win came in a 1m novice as a 2yo and although he's run some good races on downhill tracks this year, including over C&D (good; acts on soft), he isn't obviously ahead of his mark; should be thereabouts even so. |

Sole win was in a Haydock novice two years ago; plenty of good runs for new yard this season but he was disappointing at Windsor on Saturday and needs to bounce back on this quick turnaround. |

17th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Useful in his younger days but nothing like as good for Alan King this year back from around 18 months off; perhaps the return to his old yard will do the trick and a reproduction of his Newbury third (1m2f, good) in May would give him a fair chance at this lower level. |

Well beaten in one run on soft ground last autumn but much more like it on his Tapeta comeback, when beating a subsequent winner (Approval, a stablemate of Rhetorical); will want to settle better upped from 8.7f but this trip should be fine on pedigree. |
