7th 3 (7) |
23rd May 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Lightly raced 5yo; good second in Group 3 at Royal Ascot in 2023, then was absent until filling same position in AW Listed contest at Kempton (again over 1m2f; debut for new yard) last month; 0-5 since debut success but his form is largely progressive; possibilities. |

Absent since running very well in 1m2f Group 3 at Royal Ascot in 2023 (final start for Roger Varian); gelded later that year and sold for 18,000gns last October; betting may prove instructive. |

23rd Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Finally off the mark in a weak maiden at Bath last month and it wasn't his first good effort in handicap company when a close third at Ascot (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago; was ridden more patiently than usual on that occasion; thereabouts. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 11 (13) |
9th Sep 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Goes well with positive tactics and got off the mark after a gelding operation by making all in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good to soft; handles good to firm) last month; could be unexposed as a sprinter (campaigned at 7f/1m earlier in career) and he needs serious consideration back in a handicap. |

18th Jan 2026 Yielding 1m 7f 168y |
11st 12lb |
Maiden/novice wins during the summer of 2024; mostly disappointing in the meantime, 35l behind at Leopardstown last time (2m, yielding); others preferred. |
33/1 |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Dual novice winner (including here over 2m) last year; best effort in 2025 a neck second at Wexford (2m1f, gd-yld) on penultimate; didn't back that up off 7lb higher at Newton Abbott latest (pulled up); talented on his day but difficult to predict. |
11/1 |

30th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Launched hurdling career with two 2m wins in novice company last year and was close second on handicap debut at Wexford (2m1f, good to yielding) this month; could have untapped potential over this longer trip; commands respect. |

26th Dec 2022 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Came closest to winning when beaten a head at Doncaster (6f, heavy) on penultimate outing and finished a fair fourth of seven on nursery debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) four weeks ago; the trip seemed far enough for him there, though, so this slightly stiffer test is a concern; stable also runs Optiva Star. |
9/2 |
|
4th 3 (8) |
28th Nov 2022 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Put up his best effort so far when beaten a head (clear of the third) at Doncaster (6f, heavy) this month (fourth horse has won since); closely related to a couple of AW winners, but not sure the return to this longer trip is in his favour on nursery debut; stable also runs Night Life. |

9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won here over 7f in February either side of wins over this trip at Kempton; encountered a wide trip when down the field in a higher grade than this last time and he may well be able to bounce back. |
8/1 |
|
8th 11 (8) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Arrives seeking a four-timer, two of the wins over C&D, and he hasn't been treated punitively by the assessor having gone up just 6lb; this is a much stiffer test of his credentials but there are no doubts surrounding his wellbeing. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Has started 2026 with wins over C&D and in a small field at Wolverhampton (7f); only 1lb higher on the hat-trick bid but this is more competitive and he's drawn widest. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Mostly creditable efforts in defeat this season, including second of nine at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) last month; below-par sixth in this race on heavy ground last year; William Buick up but others arrive with more pressing claims. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 4 (10) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Had a good summer over about 1m4f last term, including when beaten a neck by Night Breeze in this race; some minor honours this season, without being quite in peak form but he is in serious each-way calculations. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 2 (11) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Had a good summer over about 1m4f last term, including a win in this race (good to soft) off 6lb lower; the handicapper has been winning the argument since but recent efforts have been creditable and he ought to be competitive again. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two front-running 1m Kempton wins in 2024; belatedly returned to form when narrowly denied there (7f) in December but didn't come close to backing that up over 1m last week; blinkers are refitted now. |
11/1 |

11th 1 (9) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two front-running C&D wins in 2024; little to enthuse over last year until a prominent market position correctly predicted a return to form when beaten a head over 7f here last month; up 3lb but still below his winning marks and looks a leading contender despite possible pace pressure. |

Sole win (13 races) came over 7f on Chelmsford AW in July; has mostly run respectably since; experiment with 1m2f on latest start did not work out and he has a place chance back at 7f today. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up off a similar mark in this race for Charlie Hills last year; made a good start for new yard when third at Hamilton (1m1f) last month and he had another close call at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm) 19 days ago; usually races prominently and another bold bid is expected. |
3/1 |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won twice for Charles Hills, including 1m2f on fast ground, and he ran well on his stable/seasonal debut at Hamilton last month (1m1f, good to firm), beaten around half a length into third (strong favourite); has races in him off this sort of mark but he could face competition for the lead here. |

Perhaps flattered by his standout effort at Goodwood in October in a steadily run race (1m1f, good to soft); disappointing when sent off favourite for his handicap debut at Kempton in January (1m4f) and sold out of Amanda Perrett's yard for 4,000gns the following month; too soon to write off. |

Well-backed favourite when a fair fifth in a Salisbury handicap (1m2f, good to soft) on his stable debut in May but he hung badly left throughout when tailed off at Bath last time; that took his record to 0-7 and has plenty to prove again after that; tongue-tie back on. |
