9th 5 (8) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Leicester (1m, good to firm) last June when trained by Charlie Johnston and he went close at Southwell (1m, AW) on his final start for that yard; beat only one rival home on his stable debut 174 days ago and now has his first try over 6f; cheekpieces left off. |
9/1 |

2nd 10 (8) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Kempton effort when trapped out wide; in good hands and bred to be better than this mark but not obviously ahead of the handicapper at present. |
20/1 |

7th 7 (9) |
15th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Below par turned out quickly last time and given a rest since; has shown his recent improvement on turf and this return to AW presents a question mark. |
10/1 |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Was nothing special at Leicester last month but he'd impressed there (1m, good to firm; twice missed races on that surface) in June and first-time cheekpieces may have helped when chasing home an in-form rival at Newmarket (1m, good to soft) last week; 3lb well in; good claims. |
100/30 |

1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Much improved to appear from midfield and win comfortably at Leicester (1m, good to firm) but was only third next time off this 9lb higher mark (went off 8-13); had a longer break this time and tries cheekpieces; respected. |
5/1 |
