20th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
13yo who ended a lengthy losing run in a Nottingham handicap (5f, soft) in October but he's failed to beat a rival back on Tapeta at Southwell in last two starts; AW record now stands at 0-18 and it's not hard to look elsewhere. |

Sprung a surprise when 66-1-winner at Nottingham but he couldn't back it up later in October when fourth of nine at Catterick; this veteran needs to get back on track. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Shaped as if in need of comeback run at Nottingham (5f, good; sixth of eight) in April; has some decent C&D form to his name and is 10lb lower (and claimer ridden) than when seeing off Our Absent Friends here in August 2024; foolish to discount hastily. |

More miss than hit in 2025 but back on a good mark as a result and a record of two wins and two seconds from his five outings over this C&D means a revival can't be ruled out back from four months off. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
5lb lower than last winning mark and came close to taking advantage when finding only Vantheman too strong at Hamilton (5f, good) last week; meets that rival on 5lb better terms; should be involved in the shake-up once more. |

2nd 11 (8) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner who boasts a good record at this time of year; will always be reliant on some luck given his hold-up style, which he hasn't had this year; on a handy mark when things do fall his way again, though, and is one to consider. |
6/1 |

5th 7 (10) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Trouble in running on both AW starts last month and same story at Pontefract last time, in the circumstances doing well to finish eighth of 13 from 4lb out of the handicap; he has a good record at Pontefract but could play a leading role off his proper mark today if getting the breaks. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Just 3-48, but his second of eight at Catterick (5f, soft) on his penultimate start shows that he remains capable of a good effort; frame claims if the ground remains testing despite being just out of the weights and drawn low. |
12/1 |

5th 7 (7) |
17th May 2024 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
3-47 career; reeled in late over C&D (good to soft) last September, and arrives off the back of a respectable effort at Catterick (5f, soft; runner-up, with a couple of these behind); there are reasons to be optimistic, so he could feasibly have a say. |

9st 6lb |
Former sprinter who's not as good now and has become inconsistent; no problem with an easy, turning 7f when winning on turf in August but this is the first time he's been 1m and his stamina will be tested over a straight course. |

Improved on earlier runs when a very creditable third over 5f at Nottingham in April (soft; first-time cheekpieces) but wasn't as sharp next time and is an unknown quantity in a first-time visor. |

25th Apr 2023 Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 6 |

Still to register a victory but he posted his best effort of 2023 when third of eight in 5f Nottingham handicap (in first-time cheekpieces) three days ago, not enjoying the clearest of runs; he's not discounted with headgear retained. |

19th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two 6f wins at Lingfield (AW) early in the year and he went down narrowly over 7f in his hat-trick bid; his three runs since were disappointing, all at 7-1 or shorter; perhaps excused latest (5f after four months off) though and he's worth a second look. |

Recent soft-ground defeat easily ignored; had won both C&D starts earlier, getting an enterprising ride when beating Inaam in February before following up in March; fair effort over 7f subsequently but the return to 6f on this track can suit; Oisin Murphy up for the first time. |
