10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was 11 months ago but he's a reliable type who has been placed at Chester (7.6f, good) and Chelmsford (7f, AW) in last two runs; finished behind Finbar's Lad last time but he's 5lb better off with that rival and should go well again back on turf. |

3rd 1 (9) |
1st Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ran respectably at Chester returned to turf last time; he's 0-8 this year but remains favourably treated, being 6lb below last winning mark; three-time C&D scorer. |

13th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
On a losing run but he arrives in decent nick, sixth of nine in 7f Chelmsford handicap 50 days ago; one to consider after a break. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins were in late 2022 and he has been looking regressive this year; wouldn't be the obvious answer after nearly three months off. |
8/1 |

27th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last win was over C&D but that was in a novice in December 2022; very well treated on old form but he's faded in his five runs this year and was beaten 15l at Chepstow (7-2) last time; had a difficult track position in that race but he needs a big turnaround back in trip. |
9/1 |
|
12th 2 (2) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since late 2022; has dropped in the weights and his reappearance effort at Doncaster wasn't a bad run but he failed to build on it at Salisbury a fortnight ago; others appeal more. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Out of the frame in her last ten starts, but is 4lb lower than when making all over C&D this time last year; by no means written off. |
11/1 |
|
5th 6 (5) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Her four wins have included one over this C&D (good to soft) and she's now 1lb below the most recent of those successes; left the impression her first start for 192 days was needed when weakening at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 10 days ago and she should appreciate this drop in grade; contender. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner for Clive Cox in August 2024; down the field in two runs for new connections after 418 days off but has looked to retain some ability; this race should prove a better guide as to where he is at the moment. |
10/1 |

22nd Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Switched to AW the last twice, dead-heating at Kempton (7f) then well held at Newcastle; bits of encouraging turf form but this is a step back up in grade. |
6/1 |

21st Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Runner-up in two of his six starts on turf, the latest at Salisbury (7f, good) in May, and he may have just needed the run at Lingfield (7f, good) 11 days ago; one of his half-brothers won on the AW and so did his dam, so he may find a bit more improvement for the new surface. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Holds poor claims on his Redcar form this season for new yard; AW record isn't particularly convincing; enough to prove. |
25/1 |
|
14th 7 (1) |
4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Won a Sandown novice (5f, good to firm) for Sean Woods in June 2023 but gradually lost his way after being gelded last year and has been campaigned sparingly by this yard in 2025; on a career-low mark but still tough to consider. |
