27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Slightly resurgent on reappearance but needs to build on that effort and remains far from solid on his form for current stable; was a useful sort for previous yard. |
20/1 |

6th 4 (2) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Useful performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off in his last five starts, including on hurdling debut in August; has plenty to prove on his return and last win was almost two years ago. |
25/1 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off on his last four starts (blinkered on latest); perhaps he'll be sweetened up by hurdling but he carries obvious risks. |

Has failed to beat a rival in four-runner handicaps on AW this year, taking overall record to 0-5; however, may improve for this return to turf (second attempt). |

11th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual scorer (1m2f/1m3f) in small fields in early summer; not quite so hot since in two 1m4f handicaps on good to firm but the latest gave some encouragement for this longer trip; overall improvement is needed. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Three AW wins, the most recent off 7lb higher over C&D in August 2024; inconsistent since but is attractively treated and Jack Callan takes off a bonus 5lb; good chance if back to form. |
10/1 |
|
6th 1 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Prominent racer who won three times on AW last year, including over this C&D in August off a mark 5lb higher than today; beaten 20l here in February and was again well beaten at Kempton when last seen 92 days ago. |
10/1 |

11th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Prominent racer who won three times on AW last year and first two were over C&D; flopped with a heavy defeat at Newcastle in February but he finished a close third here (2m) on his penultimate run and is a big player if he can recapture that form; in the mix back from a break. |

11th 10 (2) |
31st May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Beaten just one rival home in his four starts and he was tailed off at Southwell on his handicap debut three weeks ago (6f); drop to 5f and addition of cheekpieces not enough to tempt. |
33/1 |
|
12th 6 (5) |
11th May 2023 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has beaten just one opponent home in three starts, reducing in trip from 1m to 6f latest; that Newcastle effort last December was his first that hinted at any ability but he looks best watched for now. |
