28th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Dual 1m4f winner on Tapeta elsewhere; placed three times from six starts over this sort of trip on Tapeta and could make the frame from just 2lb above his last winning mark. |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No AW win since January 2023 (Newcastle, 12.5f); managed to score at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last July but fortunes dipped markedly towards the end of the turf season; more than enough to prove after layoff. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won here (12.4f, good) in July and respectable efforts in next two runs but his form nosedived at Hamilton last month; has something to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back; stablemate of Elemental Eye. |

18th Aug 2023 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Progress as a hurdler has flatlined, but he's 5lb below his highest winning mark on Tapeta, and although yet to record an RPR above 56 in four Flat turf starts this is easier than any of those; cheekpieces added. |
25/1 |

5th 7 |
6th Aug 2023 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Travelled strongly when third of six on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell (2m, good) in June and he won over staying trips on the Flat which suggests he may have potential at this distance; however, he has to bounce back from two below-par runs over hurdles (2m/2m4f, good); unraced on slow turf. |

Close third in first-time cheekpieces at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) in January but he's not matched that form in a variety of headgear since and was only fifth of six at Newcastle last time; has something to prove again and this 11yo has not won since November 2021. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won on the Flat here (2m, soft) in November; fourth on hurdle debut here (1m7f, good to soft) later that month and improved when runner-up at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in December; he's high on the list today. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course regular who landed a fourth win here (his third over this trip) when 28-1 and beating Edwardtheninth one month ago; flopped under a 5lb penalty the following week (Team Endeavour second) but that tactical race may be best ignored; could well bounce back. |

Won his fourth race at this track and third over C&D when scoring at 28-1 last Thursday on his return from a break; 5lb penalty doesn't leave him well in but this is a weak event. |

Big question mark over current form, having finished last in both runs for new yard this year; best watched unless there's a market move. |

26th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual Flat winner for Tim Easterby including on Tapeta (1m2f) but having been off for a year he finished a well-beaten last of 12 on stable/Polytrack debut recently; this trip is more suitable but questions remain. |
11/1 |

10th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Turf (8.5f, soft) and Tapeta (1m2f) winner when with Tim Easterby; nicely treated based on his Newcastle third and fifth of 12 months ago (12.5f, Tapeta); hasn't raced since and now returns, having changed hands for 7,000gns last February; back down in trip; check the market for clues. |

6th Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |

Fair on the Flat in his prime but has a lowly mark in that sphere nowadays; ran well to a point on last month's hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) and might last longer on today's faster ground but others appeal more all the same. |

Picked up for 6,000gns after two poor efforts at the Curragh last autumn; slight promise for her new yard, switched to Tapeta, a month ago but needs a deal more if she's to win this. |

12th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |

Three defeats as favourite in bumpers for Willie Mullins; however, he's shown enough in three runs for this yard to suggest he can be a factor at a lowly level now upped in trip again and switched from cheekpieces to a visor. |

In the frame once from three runs in bumpers for Willie Mullins; fair efforts over 1m here (third in modest novice event after slow start) and at Wolverhampton (1m4f) for this yard; worth considering |

Back off the same mark as when winning at Hamilton (1m4f, good to firm) last summer and seems to go on any ground, but is still to show that he wants this far on the Flat. |
