23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Continues to tumble down the weights and he's one to watch in the betting in a first-time tongue-tie, but he's been well beaten on all three starts this season and a major turnaround is required. |
16/1 |
|
11th 8 (5) |
11th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained both wins over C&D but seems badly to have lost his way since his dead-heat here last June; well-beaten 50-1 shot on both appearances this year; considered only if much stronger in the betting today. |
12/1 |
|
14th 11 (4) |
14th May 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins at Ripon (1m, good to firm), the latest from 5lb higher last summer; hasn't beaten many in his last four starts including on his recent Thirsk reappearance; best watched for now. |

17th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Belated regained the winning thread, with eyeshield added, at Ffos Las but has failed to back up that form in two starts since; on a revival mission in the retained headgear combination. |
8/1 |
|
7th 6 (10) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
The eyeshield was new (joining blinkers) when winning well at Ffos Las and reportedly unsuited by rain-softened ground when nowhere back there off this 7lb higher mark; could be given another chance; 0-14 on the AW but runner-up three times. |
9/1 |
|
7th 2 (8) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Only 3-31 but won comfortably over C&D (good) earlier this month with a first-time eyeshield joining reapplied blinkers and that was from the same stall as today; back up 7lb but has coped with this mark in the past. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Similar weights chance to Woodstock on their Ripon form (6f, good) in August when first home on his side; gained a deserved first win of 2026 at Pontefract 12 days ago and he has a 2-2 record over this C&D (also won over 7f here) so looks primed for a good run; yard runs two. |
9/2 |
|
1st 7 (10) |
5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner; yet to strike this year but there have been several good runs along the way; on a dangerous mark and he holds each-way claims again. |
9/1 |
|
6th 15 (3) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
A four-time scorer (including C&D on good) in 2025; 0-12 this year but arrives on the back of a couple of respectable efforts over 6f at Ripon and is on a fair mark, particularly if the 5lb claim of Jake Dickson (who partners him for the first time) is taken into account. |

7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |
9st 2lb |
4-20 on turf but hasn't won since 2023; not a bad run over 2m at Listowel (2m, good) after missing the break latest; more needed back in trip, but positive rider booking. |
14/1 |
|
6th 14 (9) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 40y |
8st 7lb |
Four-time winner over 1m4f back in the day in Britain; nothing like that sort of form for current yard, mark rapidly descending of late but 5lb outside the handicap here; declared reserve in 7.25 at Down Royal on Friday. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Went close off 8lb higher in this race (good) last year but he's generally struggled since (Flat and hurdles) and was a remote fourth of five here last time; that took his losing run to 12 and others are preferred. |
15/2 |
|
4 (4) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won over 1m6f here last August off 3lb higher but below form since; showed a bit more when third of five over C&D (good) 19 days ago, however, and a further 2lb drop in the weights gives him a fighting chance. |
5/2 |
|
2 (3) |
26th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Now 1lb lower than his win here over 1m6f (good) last August but he's been well beaten in three starts this summer, on this track and at Ayr; bit to prove. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Fair Flat-racer who was placed in maiden hurdle at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in October; struggled at triple-digit odds when upped to 2m4f for recent handicap hurdle debut, though. |
33/1 |
|
8th 10 |
6th Jun 2024 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
AW Flat winner in 2023; best hurdles run when third in a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield in October (2m1f, good; cheekpieces; form sound); pulled up when visored at Kelso last time (2m, soft); today's better ground should suit; up in trip on handicap debut with cheekpieces back on. |
12/1 |

10th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Showed fair winning AW form at Southwell (1m4f) last spring and has matched that switched to hurdles, cheekpieces on when a solid third of 11 in Sedgefield juvenile in October; visor goes on now and he's much respected after a break. |

15th Aug 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Ten-race maiden; runner-up in a couple of turf handicaps over 7f and 1m; needs to improve for longer trip on AW debut. |
25/1 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
28th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Resumed with a good Doncaster second (1m, soft) in April but she's been well below par since, tried blinkered when beating only one at Catterick (7f) 16 days ago; others appeal more. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won a handicap here (1m6f, good to firm) in May and placed in handicaps on the other Newmarket course on his two runs this summer (1m6f, good to firm/good); further improvement is needed if he's to win in today's higher grade but this progressive 6yo holds each-way claims. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Landed big prize over this trip on Rowley Mile (good to firm) on 1,000 Guineas day in May and was close third in another heritage handicap over C&D (good to firm) when reappearing last month; nudged up only 2lb for that and in much calmer waters today; good chance. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Second run after wind surgery saw him better than ever back on turf for a clearcut win in 12-runner race on the other Newmarket track (1m6f, good to firm) when last seen nearly ten weeks ago; 7lb rise demands better still but he's a regular Flat winner who needs respect. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
In prime form in July, winning twice (7f/1m) at Ayr, but the wheels seem to have come off since and he beat only one home on the same course last time; others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
10th 2 (13) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Back in prime form in July, winning twice here (1m/7f), but two slightly disappointing efforts have followed and he probably needs to rebound with a career-best performance; effective on all ground. |
9/1 |
|
7th 4 (5) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Effective on fast and heavy ground; got back in the groove when winning twice at Ayr (1m/7f) in July but he was disappointing in hat-trick bid there last month; bit to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back near best. |
