2nd 2 (10) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Mostly campaigned over middle distances but the recent drop to 7f has been the making of him; surged clear under Oisin Murphy to win over C&D (good to firm; unraced on softer than good) three weeks ago and a 9lb rise looks fully justified; thriving and needs taking seriously once more. |

1st 1 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Made it 11th time lucky when seeing off three rivals at Lingfield (7.5f, good to firm) three weeks ago but the majority of those starts have been over 1m2f+ so he is unexposed over this sort of trip; Oisin Murphy also has a very good record for the stable. |

1st 3 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
0-10 although he did 'win' at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm; demoted for interference) last August; best run since when second to Classic Encounter at Redcar (1m, good to firm; first-time visor) when last seen in May; gets a weights pull and a form case can be made. |

2nd 2 (4) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Nine-race maiden; two sound runs over 1m2f after being gelded last August (relegated after passing post in front on second occasion); disappointing at 1m4f this season, but drop to 1m not sure to suit; visor now tried. |
3/1 |

5th 3 (5) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
First past the post (demoted to second having caused interference) in a handicap at Beverley last August but he failed to beat a rival at Meydan (1m4f, good) 41 days ago; dropping back in trip should suit and he may bounce back on his return to Britain. |
3/1 |
