1st 4 (3) |
23rd Sep 2023 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
in touch with leaders, cajoled along 4f out, pushed along 3f out, hung left but headway on near side of group 2f out, ridden over 1f out, led inside final furlong, soon edged left, went clear final 110yds, comfortably |
7/2 |
10th 11 (9) |
25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Creditable third at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) on handicap debut, before making all at Chester (1m2f, good to soft) and asserting final 1f at Glorious Goodwood (1m3f, good to soft); 1m4f looks manageable and 7lb rise may be too, given he was comfortably on top for both wins; steadily progressive. |

1st 3 (1) |
30th Jun 2023 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Plenty of promise in his qualifying runs (beaten a neck on 1m Salisbury reappearance) and made a good start to his handicap career when third over 1m2f at Epsom (good to firm) on Derby day; the winner was a good fourth in the King Edward last week and the second won well at Pontefract on Sunday so the form looks strong. |
5/2 |
3rd 13 (6) |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Showed promise and plenty of ability when taking minor honours at Nottingham (1m, soft) and Kempton (7f, AW) last autumn; late foal with a useful pedigree and he was beaten a neck in novice at Salisbury (7f, good to soft) on reappearance, making most and sticking to his task well despite persistently hanging left; open to further improvement, particularly as he's stepped up in trip like his stablemate Promoter. |
9/2 |
