9th Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Has something to find on her two Wolverhampton efforts for new yard but holds possibilities if she takes well to first-time cheekpieces; C&D winner off this mark last year. |

Conditions to suit and there were some encouraging signs behind Major Gatsby on her stable debut 17 days ago; each-way claims. |

9th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Does well at this time of year, going back to her Irish days, and off the same mark as when winning over C&D last October; couple of costly defeats for Ronald Thompson over C&D in the summer but her new yard is in form, so she's considered. |

Effective elsewhere but this track really plays to his strengths, winning for the fourth time over C&D when powering clear three weeks ago; didn't get a clear run through one week later but still looked in top form; more appealing than most in here. |

9th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Only 1-28, though the win did at least come this year (at Wolverhampton, 8.6f); returning to 1m is probably a good thing but his record fresh is nothing to shout about. |
12/1 |

8th 4 (5) |
19th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Belatedly opened account at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March and was third over 1m in his next three races (twice on Polytrack); claims if judged on that evidence but is yet to convince over 1m2f and needs to bounce back from a duff effort on turf three weeks ago. |
8/1 |

10th 1 (6) |
29th May 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Took a long time to get off the mark but he hit the target at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March and has held his form with three thirds since, including on turf at Brighton (1m, good) on his penultimate run; should be in the mix again on this step back up in trip and he's respected. |

9st 4lb |
Triple C&D winner for Robyn Brisland in 2021 and came good for current stable at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in June, having reportedly benefited from the reapplication of a hood; reverted to her free-going tendencies when midfield on consecutive outings without a hood last month, though, and the headgear is again missing here. |
