27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Contrasting performances on the other track here (7f) since being gelded, winning at the Craven meeting in April then well below par in May; not sure what to expect from him on July course debut. |

17th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has seen plenty of action since his debut last June but he resumed his progress back on turf after a gelding operation when scoring over C&D (good; cheekpieces removed) last month; up 5lb but that was a comfortable success and this return to quicker ground is no problem; shortlisted. |

9th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Started his handicap career with a close call at Ascot (6f, good) last July but he's been well held in three runs since, including on Polytrack and Tapeta last month; record now stands at 0-7 and others are preferred. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins over 1m2f at Salisbury (good to firm) this season but she flopped in her bid for a double there (last of six) last month; still looks feasibly treated on her penultimate form but she needs to bounce back on this return to 1m. |
8/1 |

6th 4 (2) |
26th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
She raced at up to 1m in her early starts but has improved for the step up to 1m2f in cheekpieces, winning two from the front over C&D; up 3lb for the latest one and an easy lead looks possible; claims again. |
4/1 |

1st 3 (4) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Benefited from combination of step up in trip and first-time cheekpieces when making all over C&D (good to firm) in May, opening her account at the ninth attempt; below that form when only third of four here (1m4f, good to firm) last time but could be dangerous on this return to 1m2f if able to dominate. |

23rd Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Six-race maiden who hasn't progressed; ran well in one AW start but others look open to greater improvement. |

6th 6 (1) |
13th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Close third on heavy here on debut; has not improved much on that despite four further starts, gelded before well beaten at 50-1 in York nursery on latest; this race is nothing like so hot but others are still preferred. |
12/1 |
|
15th 15 (15) |
21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
0-4 but has shown promise each time, most recently close fourth of five on nursery debut at Ascot (6f, good), a run that can perhaps be upgraded as he made a move from the rear to lead over 1f out in that slowly run race; gelded since; today's bigger field should play to his strengths; interesting. |

9st 6lb |
New Bay filly who showed fair form without winning as a juvenile and she wasn't disgraced after six months off when a fading fifth of six in 6f maiden here in January; she can build on it now. |
