3rd 1 (1) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Gained a third win when beating Desert Shadow at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in May and he went down narrowly over that C&D (good; third has won since) four weeks ago; leading claims from an unchanged mark. |

2nd 3 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Respectable effort when fourth of 12 at Newbury (1m, good to firm) this month and the return here makes him especially interesting given he is 2-2 over C&D; drying ground a positive. |

4th 1 (9) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Took full advantage of the drop into Class 4 company when readily seeing off five rivals at Redcar last week (1m, good to firm); penalised in a deeper race but he still commands serious respect. |

1st 1 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins last season, over C&D in April (good) and off 1lb lower over 1m1f at York in June (good to firm; beat Cosmos Raj by a nose); not disgraced in two competitive handicaps this season and is the one to beat now down in grade. |

6th 13 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended last season with a good third to Man Of La Mancha over 1m1f on this course (good to firm); shaped as if retaining all his ability when seventh of 22 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster, short of room closing stages; should be spot-on with that run behind him and looks ready to strike. |
7/1 |
