21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
More exposed than many of these after ten races; the latest was a C&D handicap (good to firm) six weeks ago and he raised his game to win it in tidy style from off the pace, but with only six runners and he's 6lb higher in this much tougher contest; sold for £250,000 on Monday. |

9st 5lb |
1-9 tally and his peak efforts have been on AW over 1m; there's plenty of hope for this trip in his pedigree but he raced freely and underperformed when trying it in small field at Newmarket last month. |

2nd Nov 2024 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |

0-7 but knocking at the door, fading over testing 1m2f when second of five at Nottingham (heavy) last time; this shorter distance could be ideal; respected in first-time headgear. |

Hasn't been looking ahead of his mark but he's likeably consistent and going beyond 1m could bring him on some more; respected. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Record of 21131 since switched to nurseries, beaten a head on soft ground on first occasion and scoring at Doncaster (1m, good) last time on the same card that Ghost Run won; progressive filly who is one to consider. |
8/1 |

12th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Went close on nursery debut at Beverley (7.4f, soft) in July and won her next two (7f, good to firm); beaten about 3l when third of five to Brindavan at Kempton (1m, AW) three weeks ago but she could improve upon that latest form if getting a stronger gallop; not ruled out. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Hit the target for the first time when fending off Mercurius Power over C&D (22-1; from 4lb lower) in July; last of eight back on turf at Hamilton (1m1f) subsequently; returning to this track (1-2 on AW) could still prove beneficial. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Made it 15th-time lucky at Newcastle (1m, AW) a week ago; now needs to show he can do it back on turf from 4lb higher and also still has stamina to prove. |

1st 8 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

14-race maiden; tumbling down the weights and his latest Hamilton run was a little better; still not easily recommend though. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year and was well held in three hurdle runs before pulling up on handicap debut at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; new cheekpieces and tongue-tie combination needs to spark a revival. |
25/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year since switching stables and has been well held in three hurdle starts, although he wasn't beaten far when sixth of nine here (2m) in May; moves up in trip for handicap hurdle debut with something to prove. |
33/1 |

7th 1 (2) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
7f win for Ed Walker as a 2yo; modest form on Flat and over hurdles for new yard this year; Royal Ascot was fanciful latest and although this is more realistic, others still bring more compelling claims. |
25/1 |
