19th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Veteran who is a 16-time winner; however, has very unconvincing form since returning from lengthy layoff and doesn't look anything like the force of old; opposed. |
33/1 |
|
8th 6 (3) |
5th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Yet to get going after a 15-month absence but his mark is in freefall and he hasn't looked a completely spent force; still looks vulnerable today though. |
33/1 |

22nd Dec 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Off for 451 days prior to last month's Newcastle return; down the field on that occasion, and in two sprint runs here since, and he comes here with too much to prove; will be 4lb lower from the weekend. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner in 2022, with no joy from nine subsequent visits but most of those were over shorter, whereas his last four wins (elsewhere) have been at about 7f; he's now 1lb lower than when making all at Beverley last September and a case can be made. |
40/1 |
|
6th 7 (11) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner in 2023 but all his subsequent wins have come over 7f+; on dangerous mark but he's faded at big prices in both runs this season and latest was over C&D (eighth of 16) three weeks ago; down the list. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Inconsistent and regressive this year but down the weights and he was third of 13 off this mark over C&D last month; would have been closer granted a clear run and can be involved if he's on another going day. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 12 (6) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

5lb lower than for his turf win last August; mixed bag this year but he's fully effective under these conditions; others still appeal more. |

13th Aug 2022 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

ducked right start, held up in last, going okay but still plenty to do over 2f out, shaken up under 2f out, pushed along over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, too much to do |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Revived by the drop to 0-50 classified events, runner-up over 7f at Wolverhampton and then C&D before seeing off six rivals in a 1m event here last week; that was a notably weak race, even for the grade, and he has a bit more on his plate as he bids to defy a penalty. |
5/2 |
|
1st 3 (7) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
No win since 2024 and all his succes has come over 7f; that said, he is effective at this trip and arrives on the back of a pair of runner-up finishes at this level; unlikely to be found a better opportunity to register a first 1m success. |
5/4 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won three times over C&D; clear of the remainder when runner-up in a Wolverhampton handicap last time; sound chance down in grade. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent on turf (without winning) last summer; creditable efforts (fourth to Supreme King and Howzak respectively) over 6f here through the early weeks of 2026; worth another go over 7f, even if it isn't obvious that he's crying out for this longer trip. |
11/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Three-time C&D winner; returned from break with low-key run in December but kept on for fourth over C&D on both subsequent appearances, and can pose a threat from off the pace if this race is run to suit. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three of his five wins have come over C&D and the latest (last January) was off this mark; creditable fourth against stronger opposition over C&D 19 days ago; solid claims. |

8 (4) |
14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Rattled off a four-timer here (7f-1m) early last year but he was out of sorts in his final three runs in 2024; now only 1lb higher than for his last success but this 11yo needs a major turnaround. |
20/1 |
|
9th 5 (3) |
12th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran; rattled off a four-timer here (7f-1m) early in the year; weakened when sixth to a stablemate of Judgement Call over C&D six weeks ago and others appear to be on more manageable marks. |
