4th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Not as good or consistent as he was and does a lot of his racing now over 6f, as when behind Monks Dream (Dark Kestrel fifth) here recently; again only holds each-way claims. |
8/1 |

15th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Dropped to a dangerous mark and his last two efforts have been more encouraging; 7lb better off with Brazilian Rose on last month's C&D run but wouldn't be open to the same progress as that rival. |
14/1 |

4th 2 (2) |
17th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Close third on latest outing but isn't certain to build on that effort; 0-11 for current yard and losing run goes back to 2022. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Campaigned back in Bahrain since December, best efforts when placed twice over 6f; well treated on historical data but hasn't won a domestic race since 2023; returns to 7f for first time since last July. |
25/1 |

14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Returned to form when third of 14 at Thirsk (6f, good) recently and he retains the same mark, which is 6lb lower than when 3l fourth of nine in this last year (soft); might not be far away. |
14/1 |

3rd 2 (13) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 6f handicap in Bahrain in January; down the field in three runs back in Britain this summer (after a wind operation) and although he dropping down the weights, others appeal more. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
8yo who was inconsistent last season and lacks a recent run; however, he's just 1lb higher than when both second of 13 over C&D (good) last May and winning at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) next time; not ruled out each-way. |
33/1 |
|
13 (21) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Not far off his best this year and won at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) in June, but he's been in and out since and was well held in the Ayr Gold Cup; this C&D winner could be revived but he doesn't have the potential of some of these. |
33/1 |
|
22 (25) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Fine servant who was winning for the eighth time when successful in a 5f handicap at Hamilton in June; good third back at Hamilton in July but not at quite the same level on his last two starts; this will be his fifth attempt in one of the Cups here though and last season's Silver Cup third was his best result; stable has stronger claims elsewhere. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has five wins on AW, including one over C&D; below his best since winning at Lingfield in February and best watched. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (9) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Normally a fairly consistent sort but that's not been the case in 2026, with Lingfield success (penultimate start) his standout performance; failed to beat a rival latest; hard to support with confidence. |
16/1 |
|
8th 3 (1) |
16th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Poor efforts in January are flanked by two wins over 6f, latest at Lingfield when taking AW record to 5-30; back up 3lb but Conor Whiteley takes off 7lb; likely player, provided he remains in form. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Versatile trip-wise and six of his 12 wins have come at Windsor; on same mark as for his Sandown win last autumn and he's been running well on AW this spring; should get a good tow into this race and he's in the mix back at this track. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 3 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No AW win since December 2021 but there have been some good runs on both Polytrack and Tapeta this year, including C&D, and yesterday's 6f second was another sound display; wasn't helping his rider under pressure on that occasion and opposable for win purposes. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Into the veteran stage now and it's a long time since his latest AW win but he made the frame over C&D two starts ago and kept on well for second behind a next-time-out winner at Wolverhampton (6f) on his most recent outing. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His losing run is gathering momentum and he has not won over 5f for three years; went close at Goodwood last month (5f, good) though and he should remain a potent force at this level. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 7 (9) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice at Newmarket (6f, good) in 2024 but he's drawn a blank since; finished runner-up on stable debut at Leicester last month but he was 6l behind the winner and and is only 1lb lower on this drop back in trip; well-beaten sixth in the 4.25 here on Friday. |
9/1 |
|
6th 9 (1) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
On a long losing sequence but he made a good start for his new yard (formerly with Darryll Holland) when second of nine in 6f Leicester handicap 18 days ago; more is needed from 3lb out of the handicap here though. |

19th Nov 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Seen more regularly on turf and it's over two years since her one AW win (6f) but she's been running well off much-reduced mark of late; shouldn't be too far away if no ill effects from leaving off the headgear. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Multiple winner down the years and gained his most recent success (narrowly, three starts ago) off current mark; subsequent dip in form is the negative. |

11th 1 (15) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Getting on but retains a lot of his old ability, is still consistent enough and has won over C&D before; rare off-day at Thirsk a fortnight ago, having beating a subsequent winner in a small field off 1lb lower previously; quite capable of bouncing back. |
12/1 |
|
6th 2 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Retains a large portion of his ability despite his advanced years and took advantage of a reduced mark at Cattterick (6f, good) ten days ago; only nudged up 1lb for that narrow success. |
