20th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won three times (5f/6f) on the AW last autumn/winter and he's equally good on turf; however, he's not known for his reliability and his last two efforts have been poor ones; bit to prove after an absence. |

Deserves some credit for winning three times this autumn/winter, including here; however, the negative is his inconsistency, as reflected in his form figures; not entirely sure what to expect. |

25th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Had plenty to spare when winning a 6f handicap at Newcastle in November, meeting trouble in running but sweeping through to lead late on; never dangerous back there four weeks ago but this race looks full of pace and he should be arriving on the scene late. |

28th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Conditions to suit and he bounced back to form with a come-from-behind success over C&D eight weeks ago; met plenty of trouble on that occasion and looks good value for the 3lb rise; won this race off the same mark 12 months ago; one of four runners for the stable; would be suited by a strong pace. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Hold-up performer who needs the cards to fall right; losing run stretches back to July 2024 and others appeal more for win purposes. |

6th 7 (11) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
7-91 but without a win since July 2024; didn't get the breaks when fifth at Southwell (6f) on penultimate start and was an encouraging third to an in-form pair over C&D (beaten under 2l) 11 days ago; a likely player under Mulrennan. |

Three-time course scorer; on a long losing sequence but holds a good chance off current mark, provided he takes well to first-time visor; has won in cheekpieces. |

27th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Usually leads or races prominently; two sprint wins in 2025, the latest over 6f at Thirsk (good to firm; when 3lb higher) last May, but he was quiet towards the end of the campaign and has been off since August; perhaps other days. |
14/1 |

17th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Two wins this year, the latest when making all over 6f at Thirsk in May; there have been some excuses since then and his record at this track means he can't be ignored. |

23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

Still below a winning mark despite two successes since March (5f on Tapeta and 6f on fast turf), but yet to oblige on genuinely slow turf and a record of 85577 around here doesn't set the pulse racing. |

Just one win since October 2022 but that was off 6lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) last May; had just one run this season but he caught the eye with his late headway at Wetherby (5.5f) in April and has possibilities back up in trip. |

27th Apr 2025 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 5 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Spent last year in the grip of the handicapper after seven wins in 2024; more leniently treated now and ran respectably when sixth of 28 in the 7f Victoria Cup at Ascot; seemed unsuited by drop back to 5f next time; this intermediate trip is probably ideal these days and he commands respect. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Nine course wins to his name from 22 starts here (3-7 over C&D); in good form of late, having spent last year in the grip of the handicapper, but that was over 7f and whether he still has the toe for 5f, at his age off this mark, is the question; yard also runs Woohoo. |
6/1 |

6th 22 (27) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Veteran who had raced only over sprint distances until a resurgent effort (second of 18) upped to 7f at Newmarket last time; goes back up in class and seems unlikely to land a Victoria Cup aged ten; gained last five wins, all in 2024, at Hamilton. |

Getting on for two years since his last win; now 12lb lower but this season's two runs need bettering if he's to end his drought. |

12th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Raced mainly at 6f but won over 5f in 2020; defied an 8lb higher mark here in 2021 for previous yard; placed a few times last year for current stable; could go well with Thirsk reappearance under his belt. |

5th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Losing spell goes back to 2021 and lacks recent match practice; however, placed a few times for new stable last season and holds each-way claims if running to that form on reappearance. |

Course winner (5f; August 2021); now rated 21lb lower than when last successful at Carlisle the following summer; it is difficult to be enthused though by his latest effort at Nottingham (5f, soft; ninth of 11, beaten 8l); others preferred. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

A switch of headgear saw him end a losing run when making most in a big-field handicap over C&D last month; not in the same form when third at Southwell 16 days ago; no surprise to see him bounce back. |

Responded well to a change of headgear when making all in a 17-runner handicap at Thirsk 12 days ago (6f, good); 6lb higher back on AW and he's not the only pace influence in the field. |

4th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time winner over 6f for Tim Easterby, including on the old Fibresand surface at Southwell; didn't show much on her stable debut over C&D last time (behind Ultramarine) and best to look elsewhere. |

18th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Mostly consistent on turf this year for Tim Easterby, sold for 5,500gns after finishing third of nine at Redcar four weeks ago; rarely seen on AW but did win at Southwell (Fibresand) earlier in career. |
