8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
His only appearance at Chester was a successful one in eight-runner handicap last August (2m, good to firm) off 3lb lower than today, in a manner that was encouraging for this test; absent since a lesser show in September but scored in 2024 after a 113-day layoff and needs a close look. |

Game winner of a 2m fast-ground Chester handicap before finishing fourth of five runners back over hurdles; only 3lb higher than for that recent win and goes on any ground. |

Had four runs over hurdles, winning in maiden/novice company (good to soft; soft) and close up in one of his two handicaps; returns to this scene after taking a Class 4 Flat handicap over 2m at Chester ten days ago; major player. |

31st Jul 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Likely player on his best RPRs, which have been achieved over 7f, 1m and 11.5f; however, he's comparatively exposed (now 0-6) and not particularly solid on 2023 evidence; cheekpieces added back down in distance. |

16th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up at Yarmouth (7f) and Newbury (1m) last October, before tailed off on reappearance in his only handicap; back to form when tongue tied in maiden at Yarmouth (11.4f, good to firm) 15 days ago and this drop back in trip may well help, but marked overall improvement is needed. |

Minor honours in Group 3 and Listed race at Royal Ascot 2023 and 2024; however, he was not so hot at that meeting this year and finished last of six in 1m1f course Group 3 last time after a further four months off; plenty to prove at present. |

Minor honours in Group 3 and Listed race at Royal Ascot 2023 and 2024, both on good to firm; however, he was not so hot at that meeting this year, wearing first-time cheekpieces after a year's absence; very lightly raced for his age and he has a chance if back on song. |

0-15, but having dropped a long way in the weights she only went down by a head and a neck when third of ten at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 15 days ago; capable of another big run from the same mark; visor replaces cheekpieces. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
C&D winner two years ago who tends to stick to the AW these days; back up in the weights following a hat-trick in the winter and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort when last seen five weeks ago. |
10/1 |

5th 5 (1) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-8 here but completed a 6f hat-trick when scoring at Kempton (Polytrack; also won on Tapeta) in February; repeatedly denied a run when unlucky fifth next time and latest third (Hunky Dory fifth) was a solid effort a fortnight ago; considered. |
5/1 |

3rd 6 (3) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Unlucky fifth, getting no sort of run, in the Kempton event won by Lazzar when bidding for a 6f four-timer; treated as still in form and still well handicapped (mark is unchanged); remains of interest at this level. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 169y Class 5 |

8th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Nicely bred and minor promise in a soft-ground maiden on final qualifying run at Newbury in April but he ran no sort of race on handicap debut when upped to 1m2f (good) there in May; all to prove after that. |
12/1 |
|
16th 4 (4) |
19th May 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Well beaten in his first three starts over 1m/1m2f including one in France; nicely bred, though, being a half-brother to six winners including Morandi (7f-1m2f 2yo including Group 1; RPR 117) and Ottilien (1m2f-1m4f including Listed; 109); no great surprise were he to show more now handicapping. |

9st 5lb |
2-36 with one of his wins coming here (1m2f, good to firm) in August last year, the other at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) in June; placed five times from six starts over C&D this year, but below form on soft the last twice; could do with the ground drying out, but considered if it does. |

15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with an emphatic win in classified event at Lingfield (11.6f) in June; ran to similar level when runner-up over C&D last month but his form has nosedived in last two runs; now drops back in grade but has a bit to prove again and he's a frequent slow starter. |
14/1 |
|
11 (10) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Used to be a notorious slow starter but he's been a bit better in that department since the summer and it was a solid effort in this headgear combination when second of five at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; stayed on from the rear when third in an amateur riders' race over that C&D 12 days later; this is a notch above the standard he regularly contests, though. |

26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Runner-up at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) last month on second handicap start and has won his next two (1m4f/1m6f, good to soft/heavy); has travelled really well for those wins and he could have more left in the tank for trainer who has won two of the last four runnings (also saddles Lordship). |
13/2 |

1st 7 (4) |
2nd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has improved plenty since handicapping, getting off the mark by nearly 5l at Ascot (1m4f, good to soft) last Friday; has a good chance of staying the longer trip on breeding and 6lb penalty is unlikely to stop him if he's in the same form. |

Consistent sort who was third in this last year (good) and has gone close three times this season, including at Glorious Goodwood (1m6f, good to soft) last month; another good run when fourth of 13 at York (2m, good to firm) last time and he's a solid each-way contender. |

Career-best form this season, beaten a neck by Spirit Mixer in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle (2m, AW) in June and another close second at Goodwood (1m6f, good to soft) 18 days ago; ran poorly when he tried front-running on penultimate start; up 2lb to another career-high mark, with a slight question about good to firm ground, but he has to be in serious calculations. |

Won a Southwell maiden hurdle (2m4f, good; first-time tongue-tie) and a Carlisle Flat handicap (2m1f, soft) last summer, but handicap hurdle debut in September was too bad to be true; however, he made a promising return here over 2m 17 days ago when shaping as though he'd improve for the outing; interesting back up in trip. |
