2-3 over C&D and she's now 3lb lower than for her Class 5 success here in April; two creditable efforts at Pontefract since joining this yard; one to take seriously. |

Three wins over C&D in the spring, but last two efforts (albeit in warmer company) leave something to be desired; widest stall to contend with. |

Campaigned mostly at shorter; scored three times over 7f at Kempton in the spring; below par over C&D on penultimate outing and has something to prove back at 1m. |

Three course wins early in the year and he is now 3lb lower than for the latest of them; dropped down the weights on the back of some disappointing turf runs and he should be a more potent force back under these conditions. |

6th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Multiple winner at 6f and about 7f but he failed to beat a rival on yard debut in 2023 and has been off since; many questions to answer. |

25th Jul 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Conditions won't be an issue and he's not on a bad mark but he was sold cheaply out of Brian Ellison's yard in May and he's landed the widest stall on his return from 168 days off. |

8st 8lb |
Four wins last May-July, with no joy since; he finished close up four and five starts back, acts on soft and is edging down the weights, but he was never dangerous in Westgate Warrior's C&D race two weeks ago. |

Four wins last May-July, with no joy since but he finished close up three and four starts back (his last two runs at 5f) before two lesser shows over 6f; beaten a head off this mark over C&D (good) in August, so a case can be made. |

Infrequent winner; good second over C&D in June (soft) and fair runs since, latest with a visor (on again); well drawn; each-way chance. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
0-21 since winning in 2021 on third start but she's been running really well this season and was beaten just a neck at Ayr (6f, good) last time in first-time blinkers; switches to a visor today and can be bang there. |
5/1 |

2nd 2 (2) |
12th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten 20 times since winning a Leicester novice as a 2yo; series of good runs in defeat this year, including C&D, and she won't mind what the weather does; solid form claims with blinkers now added. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent on turf (without winning) last summer; creditable efforts (fourth to Supreme King and Howzak respectively) over 6f here through the early weeks of 2026; worth another go over 7f, even if it isn't obvious that he's crying out for this longer trip. |
11/1 |

6th 8 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Three-time C&D winner; returned from break with low-key run in December but kept on for fourth over C&D on both subsequent appearances, and can pose a threat from off the pace if this race is run to suit. |

4th 1 (4) |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Five wins on Tapeta elsewhere but has run only twice on this track; had a slow time of it in 2024 but he's well treated now and emerged from a break with a good run at Newcastle (5f; in refitted blinkers) last week; return to 6f will suit; every chance. |
7/1 |

2nd 8 (7) |
8th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 6f handicap here in November 2023, recording an RPR of 66 in the process; little to celebrate on turf last year but he has gone well fresh in the past and any market confidence would look significant with blinkers given another airing. |
