13th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Acts on soft; close third on penultimate start, inconsistent otherwise this year; three-time winner at Chester and has possibilities back here, provided he takes well to first-time visor. |

1st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
7f course winner who had dropped 6lb lower than when successful at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last December when beaten less than a length into third of 11 at Ripon (1m, good to soft) 12 days ago; races off the same mark but this trip looks to be right on the limit of his stamina. |

9th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Just one win to his name but he regularly ran to an RPR in the 80s through the winter and his penultimate start at Ripon (1m, soft) wasn't bad in the context of this race; disconcerting to see him dropped to this grade but no surprise were he to prove too classy. |

13th May 2023 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Weighted to be involved on 7f Tapeta form in midwinter but he can lose ground at the start and, with no experience of Polytrack, he has something to prove against rivals who handle the surface well. |

20th Apr 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Sole success came over 6f on good ground last June; mostly consistent since, including in his autumn/winter campaign on AW, but he missed the break and was never involved in the Spring Mile at Doncaster on his return to turf 19 days ago. |

30th Apr 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won three over this trip for Marco Botti but does most racing now over 7f and does need things to fall just so (landed only one of his last 21); 4lb above his last successful mark and needs to improve on this spring's two efforts. |

Hold-up performer who needs everything to fall right for him but he's capable off this sort of mark, as when motoring home for second at Newcastle last August; should be sharper for last month's reappearance sixth to Chola Empire at Southwell. |

Conditions to suit and he is back to the same mark off which he beat Captain Parma here in October; not at his best at Southwell last week but he is the type to bounce back quickly. |

17th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Seven-time AW winner but he's finished a well-held seventh at Kempton in last two starts; on much lower mark back on turf and he's just 1-11 in this sphere; that win was a narrow success off 4lb lower; others preferred. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
No turf win since May 2022; has posted some decent efforts at Newmarket (6f, both tracks) this season, none better than when runner-up in June; cheekpieces are yet to elicit improvement but this appears a better option than Southwell (tenth of 14) last time; easing mark. |
16/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
He is on a competitive mark and has a course win on his record (7f); not beaten far at Newmarket this month when tried in cheekpieces for the first time; wide draw but he's not ruled out. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Twice placed on the two courses here before his effort petered out tamely at Haydock two weeks ago; returning here has to rate a positive, as might the addition of cheekpieces. |

1st Jun 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time AW winner who won by 4l in a Wolverhampton claimer (7f, Tapeta) in January and has run respectably back in two handicaps (1m/7f) this spring; looks the pick of the weights now back in a claimer and his last success was under Billy Loughnane; big player. |

27th Apr 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time Dundalk winner who's weighted to his best but ran better than his final position back from a break last time (drawn wide over 1m and pulled hard in a race not run to suit); is one to consider back down in trip. |
6/1 |

1st Apr 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Reeled off a 7f hat-trick at Dundalk for Gordon Elliott last winter; slow start for new yard but he ran out the easy winner of a 7f claimer at Wolverhampton in January; no certainty to back that up in a much stronger race. |

Patchy form since returning from another break in January, though is 2lb lower than when third of nine over C&D on his penultimate outing so a case can be made; cheekpieces removed after one use. |
