2 (6) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Useful 2yo form at 6f, including on this track, but has had just four runs since and he's been soundly beaten in two runs after missing the whole of 2024; already 9lb lower than the first of them but lots to prove. |
33/1 |
|
8th 4 (2) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Promising 2yo, including a soft-ground Redcar win (6f); absent for 713 days prior to finishing tailed off in a 7f handicap at Redcar in April; that was his only run for Geoff Oldroyd and he's now back with his original trainer (and running in his colours) so presumably not felt to be a busted flush; risky but could yet bounce back. |

19th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Just one win from 13 starts but that was in a Redcar novice (6f, good) in June and she caught the eye with her strong finish in a Haydock handicap (5f good) last time; only beaten around 2l in that race and she looks interesting back up in trip. |
13/2 |

5th 4 (1) |
20th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
in rear towards far side, hung left when still plenty to do over 1f out, good headway inside final 110yds, not pace to challenge |
14/1 |
|
7th 7 (5) |
4th Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark at the tenth attempt in a Redcar novice (6f, good) in June last year, but not seen again until fifth of nine on handicap debut at Wetherby (5.5f, good) last month; each-way claims if the run has brought her on. |

28th May 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
11st 4lb |
Not the most reliable and he ended 2023 under a cloud for James Ferguson; needs to hit the ground running on his first run for seven months. |
20/1 |
|
10th 9 (10) |
21st Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
14-race maiden; encouraging start for this yard when second of ten at Goodwood in June (7f, good to firm) but backward steps since, notably when virtually refusing to race at Thirsk last month (reared as the stalls opened); risky. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Six-time course winner, including twice from the front over C&D this winter; 4lb higher than for his last win and he's never defied a mark this lofty, but the promising Harry Vigors takes off 7lb and he may make a bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who scored over C&D last month but that was a narrow success and he's been vulnerable in both runs since; looks weighted near his best and others are more persuasive. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Two 1m wins here this winter but more to prove at this trip; 3.5l behind Flowstate here 19 days ago and others look better treated. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Ended a 15-race losing run when scoring by a head over C&D last month; only midfield under his penalty at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) next time, but each-way claims back here. |
6/1 |
|
7th 10 (1) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
First win for 11 months when leading towards the finish at Southwell (5f, AW) 11 days ago; carries a 5lb penalty and has yet to win back to back in his 43-race career. |
10/1 |
|
13 (14) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Did well on AW in late 2024, including a Newcastle win and two runner-up finishes over C&D; 0-12 in 2025 but has dropped a long way in the weights and returns to AW off a 13lb lower mark than when sixth in a C&D Class 4 in April; considered. |

11th 11 (9) |
13th Jun 2024 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
0-23 and tailed off on her return to turf at Catterick last month; those looking for positives can draw upon the fact that her best turf effort came here, while Silvestre De Sousa is booked and cheekpieces return; still unconvincing though. |
20/1 |
|
13th 10 (9) |
13th May 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Still a maiden (0-22) and quickly lost her form on AW early this year; well treated on best efforts but isn't a solid option; returns from three-month break. |

6th Feb 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Off the mark at the fifth attempt when justifying favouritism in a C&D handicap last month; was held back over 6f here last time but was only beaten 1l behind an improver and she could kick on again on her drop back to this trip; respected. |
11/4 |

15th Dec 2022 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

70,000euros breeze-up purchase who was below market expectations on her debut; much better with the switch from soft to Tapeta last month and that gave something to build on now handicapping. |

14th Oct 2022 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |

18-1, encouraging debut when fourth of 12 on Haydock debut (6f, good to soft) three weeks ago; likely to progress but P J McDonald, who was on board at Haydock, partners stablemate Yorkshire this time. |

14th Apr 2023 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Runner-up over 6f at Ripon on debut for Alice Haynes last year but didn't progress; totally outclassed in 1m Listed contest here on Irish debut; bit of stamina on dam-side but must be doubtful that she wants this trip. |
16/1 |

8th 8 (5) |
3rd Mar 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Failed to build on a promising debut for Alice Haynes last year; 74-rated filly faces a huge task at this level. |

No problem with conditions and he ran his best race back from a short break when fourth of ten at Lingfield last month (7f, AW); more appealing than many off a dangerous mark. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three of his four wins have been at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) and latest was in January; finished down the field in last two starts but he had an excuse over 6f last time and he could rediscover his spark back up in trip; not ruled out off workable mark. |
