18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Difficult to recommend judged on last five starts, in which he's beaten very few opponents; supporters will cling to the hope that blinkers (replacing a visor) will help and that his two successes have come at Catterick. |
16/1 |

2 (6) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Below par on his last four starts, but Catterick (5f, good) a fortnight ago was a step back in the right direction and he won there (6f, good to soft) in July on his last encounter with slow ground; not ruled out. |
10/1 |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

6f win here in July off 1lb higher; not beaten many home in three runs since and a visor is now reached for (has been wearing cheekpieces). |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice on slow ground in the autumn of 2024; in and out in his three runs this year but his Leicester fourth last month (7f, good) brings him into the reckoning; a visor is now tried (ran well in one attempt in cheekpieces); further rainfall would aid his chance. |
10/1 |

8th 4 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Campaigned mostly on turf and over 7f, winning twice (as a 2yo); latest effort was better than reappearance and suggested this return to 1m is worth exploring; could go well, provided he's as effective back on AW. |
10/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
On a losing sequence and he failed to beat a rival on his return in 16-runner handicap at Doncaster (7f) 15 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |

4th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has shown ability in two of her four starts on turf, both over this trip; half-sister to two AW winners and worth keeping an eye on now making her nursery debut, especially if attracting support. |
8/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
7th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

1m winner in 2024; well held in both handicaps over hurdles and tries a tongue-tie; risky. |
14/1 |
|
5th 10 |
20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
1m Flat winner in September 2024 when trained by the Kublers; yet to make the frame in four starts over hurdles but has time on his side; hood worn on last two starts is left off; may do better at some point. |
16/1 |
|
8th 10 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
1m Flat winner in 2024; has run three times over hurdles, on second occasion showing modest form on New Year's Day on debut for this yard; not so good when hooded on soft ground next time and he refused to enter the stalls for a Flat race four weeks ago; bit to prove. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; he was returning from a three-month break when weakening over 2m at Catterick this month and drops back down in trip today, but he has to prove he's fully effective on turf. |
20/1 |
|
8th 4 (3) |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year and he may have been ready for a break when below par in February when last seen; 0-12 on turf and he needs to transfer his improvement back to grass, but he's not ruled out. |
10/1 |
|
5th 6 (1) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
No win in his first 18 starts but he's won four of his last five including an apprentice handicap over C&D on Saturday; escapes a penalty for that success and he pulled 8l clear with the runner-up; major player again in his bid for a four-timer. |

Absent since showing some improvement in first-time blinkers at Redcar (third over 1m; handicap debut) in September; now goes in cheekpieces; could go well again, provided he stays the longer distance. |

No more than a hint of ability and she'll have to improve if she's to win this on nursery debut. |

10th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Prominent in the betting for Brighton maiden (6f, good) two weeks ago but seemed to need the outing/experience, finishing only sixth of nine; it's reasonable to expect a bigger effort this time. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins at Wolverhampton in March (9.5f and 1m4f) but form has tailed off significantly (pulled hard on last two starts) and he's hard to fancy at present. |
16/1 |

2 (4) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |

Won twice at Wolverhampton in March but not so good in four starts since; only 1lb higher than for last success so not entirely out of this. |

7th 6 (7) |
30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Record of 114 in AW handicaps, the wins at Wolverhampton; has failed to transfer the form back to turf the last twice; may still have more to offer in this sphere and can't be dismissed. |

Finished behind a couple of these rivals at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) latest, his handicap debut; 3lb drop will help; cheekpieces go on but more is needed. |

20th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Hinted at promise when fifth of seven in a Newmarket seller (7f, good) in August, but well held either side; makes his nursery/AW debut after four months off having been gelded; probably only of interest if backed. |
