2nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Fourth in both starts, including over 1m3f here on Monday when he looked a bit unfortunate not to go even closer; a repeat of that performance would give him every chance. |

29th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Never dangerous after missing the break at Doncaster (1m4f, good) 24 days ago but he made some late gains and was only beaten around 4l in fourth of ten; that was a promising start and has possibilities if he can build on that. |

2nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Beaten just over a length when placed in two starts over 1m2f on Polytrack/turf in May; not guaranteed to appreciate the extra two furlongs on dam's side of his pedigree, but his form still puts him right in the picture. |

Sixth in all three starts including twice over 1m4f on turf since returning for this yard in June; needs to find more if he is to break his duck in this field; stable also runs Sydney Seabreeze. |

No wins in eight; back from being gelded when a 2.5l fourth at Southwell (1m4f) but he hung left on the heavy ground (and in new cheekpieces) when a well-held third at Chester; others look safer. |

0-12 and no match for Pescatorius when second over C&D (good) latest, but that was still an encouraging effort on his second chase start and he's 7lb better off with the winner; has shown ability on soft ground; chance. |

Three-time winner over hurdles but Flat career has been just four races on Tapeta, fading into fourth of eight off this mark when upped to 2m last month for Flat handicap debut (disqualified; jockey failed to weigh in); switches to turf and needs improvement. |

Winning hurdler but at a lowly level and he's been well beaten on all five Flat starts, including 13l fourth to Simiyann over 1m6f here 12 days ago. |

Ordinary hurdler/chaser who has struggled in 1m4f novice events at Southwell (200-1) in his last three runs; now goes up in trip on his Flat handicap debut but he needs to show a lot more; cheekpieces reapplied. |

2nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Won over hurdles on stable debut at Warwick in May and reportedly made a respiratory noise at Market Rasen the following month; little to suggest this different discipline is likely to suit, though. |

14th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Poor form in bumpers and over hurdles for Alexandra Dunn, but finished off strongly to score from 5lb out of the handicap on first start for this trainer at Warwick (2m5f, good; 16-1) a fortnight ago; that was a solid building block; up to 3m, with prospect of further rain the risk-factor. |

Made the breakthrough in a 0-55 at Ffos Las (1m4f, soft; 6-4 favourite) last August; failed to back that up in two subsequent starts, the latest when fifth of seven at Redcar (1m6f, good) in November; 2lb lower returned to AW (0-7) for seasonal reappearance. |

Never got involved on the AW last time but had previously got off the mark with a 4l win over 1m4f at Ffos Las (soft); that form brings him into this, off just a 3lb higher mark. |

300,000euros yearling; progressive in four starts and finished a close second of five on handicap/AW debut at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) last time; gelded since and swaps cheekpieces for blinkers; a contender back in a novice. |

300,000euros yearling; has shown promise on both starts, here (1m, good) on debut last September and also last month when third in a Newbury maiden (1m2f, good); further step up in trip looks positive; cheekpieces go on; should be thereabouts. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Well held on soft turf a fortnight ago but seems to save his best for AW, including runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f) and Lingfield (2m) in the spring; penultimate fourth of 13 back at Lingfield was also respectable and he's well treated on peak form. |

3rd Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Two seconds on AW and back-to-form fourth in that sphere on latest start; however, towards the rear on good ground on his only two turf starts, latterly when tailed off in a 1m6f handicap in June; a hood (absent this year) returns. |
8/1 |

4th 5 (13) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up off 3lb higher over C&D in May but his form has nosedived with heavy defeats in both subsequent runs; record is now 0-12 and others are more convincing; visor is removed and cheekpieces return. |

18th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Dam 1m-1m4f winner (including Listed; RPR 105), half-sister to 1m4f Group 2 winner Horseplay and useful 1m2f/1m3f AW Flat and 2m hurdle winner Devilment, out of 1m5f AW Listed winner, is granddaughter of Canadian 1m2f Grade 1 winner; interesting pedigree but the stable wouldn't be noted for winning newcomers. |
