3rd 3 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Returned to form with second in amateur riders' race at Brighton (1m, good to firm) last month and is still on a good mark but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his habit of starting slowly is another worry. |
7/1 |

2nd 2 (3) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Three-time winner last year at a mile but slow starts have become a habit and was tailed off last time despite racing prominently. |
40/1 |

13th 2 (8) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Did well last year (three wins; one over C&D) but is yet to strike form after three starts this season and slow starts have become a serious issue; goes without usual blinkers today; comes with risk. |
20/1 |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Normally starts slowly; goes well fresh so would like to have seen more on reappearance at Bath and didn't fare much better there four weeks ago; fourth is the best he's managed on AW; passed over. |
20/1 |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He made a winning reappearance here in 2024 and 2025 so it's disconcerting he was well beaten on his comeback here 24 days ago, and he could do with breaking sharper; however, it's possible he needed the run this time and, having won three times last year, he's entitled to respect. |
