17th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins on AW during the summer and she returned to form with a close call over C&D two weeks ago; nudged up 2lb but she was as good as ever last time and is strongly respected with cheekpieces added. |

Both wins have come on AW, latest at Lingfield (1m2f) in July off 4lb lower mark; ran well subsequently when second at Chelmsford and Lingfield and has excuses for her last two defeats (race may have come too soon; ground); should go close. |

29th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
13-race maiden; fair third (beaten over 4l) over C&D in October on final start for Jane Chapple-Hyam; is entitled to have needed his recent Southwell (7f; stable debut) comeback, but still prone to being picked off late again if adopting the same trailblazing style; others preferred. |

9st 8lb |
Placed in 3-12 starts, including over this trip, when with Jane Chapple-Hyam; changed stables since latest start in October; trainer among the winners and it wouldn't be a huge shock if he manages to coax a first one out of this gelding, who drops back again in trip; check for any market confidence. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Successful on Jersey in May and followed up over 1m2f on AW here in June; his two subsequent efforts have been poor and tries a change of headgear (first-time blinkers in place of cheekpieces) in a bid to get back to form. |
8/1 |

7th 5 (1) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Sole turf win was in Jersey this May, preceding a Lingfield AW win in June; tailed off at Newcastle eight days later, which she needs to bounce back from, but the string of seconds (three on good to firm) at this time last year makes this look a good mark. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Four modest runs over hurdles and endured a heavy defeat in handicap company; however, returns to this scene on the back of two competitive runs in 1m4f classified races on the AW, so at least he's in good nick. |
10/1 |

2nd 8 (8) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual-purpose performer who got off the mark at the 19th attempt when landing classified event at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) two weeks ago; got an easy lead but he justified support in good style and they were strung out behind him; key player. |

24th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He made a winning handicap debut at Chelmsford in June (1m2f) when sent off at 100-1; back at that level when a close third of nine at Wolverhampton ten days ago (1m4f); in the mix with a repeat. |

3rd 8 (5) |
14th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Caused a shock when winning off this mark at Chelmsford (1m2f; 100-1) in June; not disgraced since but needs more back up in trip. |

31st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Kept on gamely to cause 100-1 shock over C&D on handicap debut in June and has held his form pretty well since; can sometimes race a bit too freely but probably won't be far away. |

50,000gns gelded son of Caravaggio out of a mare from a good family; the betting should help guide to expectations with this one on debut. |
