5 (4) |
25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Probably hasn't enjoyed heavy/good to soft ground on turf the last twice but his record on Polytrack (4212) is a bit better than on Tapeta (484) and he remains 4lb higher than for his Kempton win (6f) in August. |
5/1 |

3 (5) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Kempton winner (6f; from 5lb lower) in August; moderately progressive form came to an abrupt end on heavy ground at Salisbury (6f; favourite) latest, and it is a legitimate concern that his three best efforts have been on AW; cheekpieces added to regular tongue-tie. |
4/1 |

5th 3 (9) |
12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Most runs and best form have been on the AW, notably his recent first and second finishes in 6f handicaps; on a competitive mark and could yet show his worth on turf. |
2/1 |

2nd 3 (3) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Found 5f too sharp on yard debut at Windsor (good to firm) before getting off the mark at Kempton (6f, AW) 15 days ago; up 5lb but the runner-up has won since and he's got plenty to recommend him. |
5/6 |

1st 12 (9) |
19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Seven-race maiden; found 5f too sharp on debut for new yard most recently; competitively treated on best effort, namely close second in AW handicap in March. |
4/1 |
