7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Developed into a very useful handicapper for Ray Craggs in 2024, including a C&D win on good to firm; failed to scale the same heights for David Thompson in 2025 but has a reduced mark to work with now back under the care of his owner. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner off this mark last summer and better than the result (met trouble) when fifth to Sir Busker in this 12 months ago; shaped as if retaining all his ability when sixth on C&D return in June and there have been excuses for two lesser runs since, with Thirsk fifth last time coming over a 7f trip which is likely a little on the short side for him nowadays; no shock were he to go well. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Won two in a row on turf last May/June (1m/1m2f) for Ray Craggs (who still owns him) and fair sixth on stable/seasonal debut at York (1m2f) in June; might not have been over those exertions when well held over 1m on AW at Newcastle 13 days later; effective over 7f. |

Veteran five-time course winner who's still capable of being competitive, as he showed when second to Urban Dandy in a classified here (1m) a month ago; the return to handicaps asks for a bit more. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Prominent racer who won classified events at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m2f) in January but he's found things tough back in handicaps in his last three runs; has something to prove again and his sole turf win was in May 2023. |

5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
His last win was in May 2023 and he was below par at Southwell (1m, AW) in August last time; however, he's run some good races this season on AW/good ground and his last win came on soft; might be worth a second look. |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

More than two years since his latest win and although he nearly put that right over C&D in April he ran flat here next time; in fair form on turf in the meantime but others look more likely winners. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed five tims this season but his losing run stretches back over two years and he wasn't at his best at Redcar when last seen eight weeks ago; on a dangerous mark but others appeal more for win purposes. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |

Latest of his three wins came at Beverley (8.5f, soft) over two years ago but he's been placed on five occasions this year; below his best at Ayr (7f, good) 16 days ago and he now goes back up to 1m with the headgear removed. |

0-13 in handicaps and was having his first start in four months (had undergone wind surgery) when around 4l behind Come On John over C&D (first-time cheekpieces) 11 days ago; needs to have come on for the run. |

Course regular who has been placed on both starts since winning over 7f here in January; also effective over 1m and current mark is probably not beyond him; ought to be on the premises again. |

Doubled his winning tally when successful at Southwell (1m, AW) in January, but below form at the same venue the last twice and has a bit to prove back on turf; unraced on ground faster than good. |
