1st 3 (2) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Both handicap wins have come by narrow margins at Class 3 level and it was a deep Class 2 in which he made no impact last time at Sandown; he's not handicapped out of it if he stays this longer distance (unraced beyond 8.6f). |

10th 17 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Has gained both handicap wins in tight finishes at Class 3 level, including at Redcar latest start; may well come up short in this better grade, for all that he receives weight all round. |

1st 1 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
3-9; didn't enjoy much luck when sent off one of the market leaders for the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) last month, but ran his race when beaten just over a length into fourth of 13 over the same C&D (good) a fortnight later; one for the shortlist down another 1lb. |

4th 1 (12) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Talented on AW and had more in hand than the narrow winning margin suggests when arriving late on the scene at Wolverhampton (about 1m) in November; was carried out of his ground when starting a forward move over C&D (good to firm) recently and has to be of interest in this lower grade. |

9th 9 (9) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Has looked quirky on occasions but he produced a decidedly useful effort when coming with a strong run to get up late in 8.6f Wolverhampton handicap in November; matched that form when a close third there on reappearance six weeks ago; won a fast-ground novice on turf last year (also second here on debut); one of two solid contenders for James Tate. |
