4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Two soft-ground wins (7.4f/1m) in 2024, but he's drawn a blank since and has struggled on the Flat and over hurdles in his last four starts; has plenty to prove and yard also runs Evelyn's Phoenix. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Two soft-ground wins (7.4f/1m) in 2024 but he's drawn a blank since and has been well held on the Flat and over hurdles in his last three starts; bit to prove and he needs a big turnaround back in this sphere; cheekpieces reapplied. |

Two low-grade Flat wins in 2024 (7.5f-1m); well beaten on recent Market Rasen hurdles debut (2m, juvenile maiden; 150-1); connections waste no time by dropping him into a claimer; difficult to identify a positive angle. |

Record of 21131 since switched to nurseries, beaten a head on soft ground on first occasion and scoring at Doncaster (1m, good) last time on the same card that Ghost Run won; progressive filly who is one to consider. |

12th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Went close on nursery debut at Beverley (7.4f, soft) in July and won her next two (7f, good to firm); beaten about 3l when third of five to Brindavan at Kempton (1m, AW) three weeks ago but she could improve upon that latest form if getting a stronger gallop; not ruled out. |

Seven-race maiden who has been well held in last three nurseries and she hung left at Redcar (1m, good) last time; has stamina on dam's side but she needs a transformation on this step up to 1m2f. |

Placed for the first time when third on her handicap debut at Beverley (7.5f, soft) in July; she started slowly when never near to challenge on AW debut at Kempton (1m) last time in first-time blinkers (left off today); not progressing and needs to improve. |

Plenty of experience and is running to a broadly consistent level; weakened late, but still a respectable fifth of 14 over C&D (beaten approx 9l) two months ago; wide draw isn't ideal; headgear tweak as further improvement is sought. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
0-10 on the Flat, having been safely held off lowly marks on both starts for Chris Grant this spring (1m2f/1m6f); will need to take very well to hurdling to pose a threat. |

Showed modest form for Ollie Pears last year and sold for 1,000gns in November; well held on seasonal/stable debut here (1m2f, good) last month and needs to show more on this step up in trip. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Proved a reliable maiden for David Loughnane and he posted a good staying-on fifth of ten for his new yard in 6f Ripon handicap six days ago; this return to 7f promises to suit so he's a player. |

Maiden who's had his chances in some low-grade AW handicaps for David Loughnane this year; can pull hard and this return to sprinting may suit, switched to cheekpieces from blinkers, for his new yard having been picked up for 3,500gns. |
