3rd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Impressed on his first attempt at 6f, making all to beat 12 rivals at Nottingham in July; not ideally drawn in either run since and he isn't fully exposed as a sprinter just yet; cheekpieces are now added. |
5/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
27th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won in good style at Nottingham (6f, good) last month on second start back from an absence and first crack at sprinting; failed to back that up at York but didn't run badly and this very lightly raced 5yo retains potential for his powerful connections; no surprise to see a bold show. |
9/2 |

26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who delivered a career-best when dropped to 6f (good ground) at Nottingham three weeks ago, always prominent and strong at the finish; a 7lb rise for that win doesn't look generous but he still has potential at this trip. |

In the frame in six of his eight starts since returning to the AW last September, but his losing run is mounting yet he remains 8lb above his last winning mark; others more compelling. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

9st 9lb |
No AW win since March 2024; respectable showings, behind in-form rivals, over a range of trips (6f-1m) recently, without doing enough to suggest that she's primed to strike; drop back to 7f is helpful and she might have place possibilities; one of two for Iain Jardine. |

9st 10lb |
Looked one to follow when an impressive winner of a fillies' handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) on her stable debut in July; beaten over 7f on her next two starts and then never featured dropped to 5f at Windsor seven weeks ago; not discounted back at this trip. |

8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |

Made stable/handicap debut at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago after an absence and won comfortably; 2l second of five under penalty at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) four days later but she may be able to settle better in this bigger field and this unexposed 3yo retains potential. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Three heavy defeats at big prices in 6f handicaps at York this summer; easy to write off this 11yo on that evidence but he comes alive at Newmarket (six wins and three placed efforts from 14 visits) and he is 9lb lower than when a close third behind Spring Bloom and Dashing Dick in this race last year; revival would come as no surprise. |
20/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Had C&D form earlier in career; losing run goes back two years and although well treated on some good placed runs over 6f in 2024 he hasn't looked likely to capitalise so far this year. |

4-29; runner-up off this mark at Wolverhampton (7f; beaten a neck) in February; in rear throughout at York (6f; 40-1) on return from a three-month break; this is slightly easier (Class 5) and Ethan Tindall takes off a handy 5lb. |

Regressive 5yo who has been unplaced all six starts for new stable this year; seemed to respond well to first-time blinkers when fourth at Chester (5f, good) last month, having set a brisk pace, but was well below that form (albeit from a wider draw) there three weeks ago. |
