27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner, the latest when scoring comfortably over 5f last month; easy wins in successive days in early September (good to firm and heavy); now 24lb higher than when starting his winning spree and he will require another career best to overcome latest 11lb rise; certainly can't be ignored though. |

9st 9lb |
Made it 3-3 since the blinkers were added when comfortably accounting for his two rivals over Brighton's extended 5f yesterday (good to firm); carries a double penalty here but he's fine on slow ground and couldn't be in better form. |

9st 10lb |
Ended a losing run when gamely fending off another in-form rival over C&D 11 days ago; 3lb rise is not excessive and this is a weaker race, so he has to feature prominently in calculations. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Couple of 6f wins at Brighton last term; proved resurgent over C&D (good to soft) last week, going down by only a whisker; now 2lb lower and due to go back up 6lb in future; leading player. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice here (6f) last year but on a downward trajectory since then; shaped okay here (fifth) on return from a 266-day absence in early September but his more recent AW efforts (6f-7f) have failed to offer further encouragement. |

It's now 20 starts since his last success and he arrives out of sorts, sixth in 6f Ayr handicap 29 days ago; he's hard to make a case for. |

16th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has won on firm but seems suited by some give in the ground these days; sound run when about 3l fourth at Haydock last time on first run at this trip (good to soft); on a really good mark at present and one with a chance. |

Two-time 5f winner who continues to drop down the weights and has shown the odd sign of spark this season; however, it's been a disappointing campaign overall and she's going into the unknown now tackling 7f. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Shaped well, amid traffic issues, over 6f at Kempton on reappearance; has gained most wins over 7f, including twice at Wolverhampton; interesting back up in trip with Toby Moore taking off a handy 7lb. |
8/1 |

5th 4 (4) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

6f winner but majority of his wins at 7f; went back-to-back at Chepstow in May/June; not in same form since and returns to AW after a break with his mark still looking tricky; drop back down in trip also a slight query. |
