1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two runs here came in this race but he couldn't better his 2024 runner-up spot when only sixth last year; reappearance effort wasn't bad eight weeks ago but he's been poor in both starts this month, including when well behind Gearing's Point at Brighton last Monday. |

Three-time course winner, all in late summer; pleasing comeback early last month but below par here a fortnight ago, when well behind Foinix, and needs to bounce back (has never been the most consistent). |

The form of his two wins here (1m2f/1m) this summer has substance; raced freely and folded over 1m2f last time when bidding for Brighton hat-trick, suggesting he'll benefit from this drop back in trip; remains of interest at this level. |

Hard to predict these days and losing run is up to 13, but he had an excuse over 1m5f last time and is now 4lb lower than for his C&D win (good to firm) last summer; could be dangerous back in trip. |

Regularly races in Jersey and she's struggled back on the mainland at Brighton (1m2f/6f) in last two runs; tongue-tie is now removed and she needs a major revival back up in trip. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who returns to turf 4lb higher than when last seen on it after a Polytrack win in the winter; 0-11 round here down the years and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Lingfield a month ago. |
6/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Scored over C&D (fourth victory here) in December and collared only late on having set a good pace when fourth of eight in 1m Kempton handicap 45 days ago; he merits serious consideration eased 1lb in a headgear change. |
3/1 |

4th 7 (1) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Most effective when able to dominate as he again showed when making all at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) last month; given no peace up front there last time and now 7lb higher than for the win, but dangerous if allowed his own way and does have winning form over C&D. |

17th Sep 2024 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Long in the tooth now and nothing like the force of old but proved he still has fire in his belly when close/clear second to Gallimimus over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago. |

2nd 5 (5) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Eight wins under both codes but he's been quiet on the Flat this year and has been beaten 10l or more over C&D in last two runs; continues to drop down the weights but this 11yo has plenty to prove. |

Both turf wins have been at 1m on good to firm; has won twice in blinkers on AW this year; although not in top form last twice, these conditions are ideal and could go well on this return to turf. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Serial hard-puller who won a 0-50 over C&D in the winter and has held his form well; not beaten far in handicaps on last two outings and may have needed it last time after a break; one to consider. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Runner-up twice at Chepstow this season (1m, good/good to firm) but is far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his recent efforts have been very disappointing; swaps usual blinkers for refitted cheekpieces. |
33/1 |

9th 10 (1) |
30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Very hit-and-miss these days and his second of 13 at Chepstow (good to firm) in July hasn't been reproduced in six subsequent starts; 1lb out of the weights and others look a lot safer. |
33/1 |

17 (1) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Usually leads and has the option of going up the far side from stall 1; hit-and-miss these days, for a trainer also responsible for Romanovich (a fellow front-runner drawn on the opposite wing) but is capable off a feather weight if tactics decide the day. |

0-19 since her debut win three years ago and she's finished tailed off over this trip in her last four runs; mark has bottomed out now and she has lots to prove in new headgear. |

Versatile regarding the ground but a respectable effort at Brighton (1m, good to firm) in July has been followed by two lesser ones and although temptingly treated, he needs much more for the adding of a tongue-tie. |

15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Sole win was over two years ago when with Roger Teal; essentially regressive these days and can be taken on. |
