3rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Progressive 3yo for Ed Walker, reeling off a four-timer before running well in an Ascot Group 3 last October; didn't fire in Qatar earlier this year but he won well at Saint-Cloud in May (6f, soft) and turned in another fine handicap effort when second of 25 in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm), making his challenge on the opposite side of the track to the winner; 3lb higher and this sharper track is not sure to play to his strengths. |

22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Found his trip when back at 6f in the second half of 2023, indifferent to the state of the ground when winning all four handicaps, including over C&D on good to firm; has left Ed Walker since but was at least as good as ever when winning a 6f conditions race at Saint-Cloud (soft) in May; has cards to play back here. |

7th Oct 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Acts on any ground; progressive 3yo who has completed a handicap four-timer since being dropped back to 6f and gained the last two wins at this venue; overall record is now 6-13; brings a very attractive profile to this first Group attempt and being 2-2 at Ascot is a bonus. |

25th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Has form figures of 213 in handicaps on Polytrack, the win gained in small field over 1m here; creditable third at Chelmsford last time; not without a chance, provided he copes with the drop back to 7f. |

8th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Quite consistent but made it 0-14 when beaten just under 5l at Lingfield (7f) and there's a hint of impatience now swapping the cheekpieces for a visor. |

9th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
With blinkers added he finished runner-up from similar marks at Doncaster (1m, good) and Nottingham (1m, heavy) in the summer, but twice well held since (back in cheekpieces last time); now 0-13 and others are preferred. |

22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Disappointed on latest outing six weeks ago and now 0-12 but lost out only by a neck off today's mark at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy; also suited by good) two starts ago and has obvious claims if back at that level here; blinkered for last three runs; cheekpieces refitted today. |

12th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 5 |

0-11 and needs to prove he can get the job done but he's returned to form in these blinkers the last twice, finishing second at Doncaster (1m, good) and Nottingham (1m, heavy); can give another good account. |

29th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-10 since winning at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) just over a year ago and finished a well-held third of seven at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) 11 days ago; the first two have won since, though, so not dismissed down another 2lb. |

3rd 2 (2) |
18th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Now 16lb lower than when winning on Tapeta at Newcastle at start of last year but has been in the doldrums for a while now; visor removed after one use; tongue-tie fitted for first time; revival needed. |

1st Jun 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Showed clear promise in three novice events on Polytrack (7f/1m) but he's struggled in four handicaps this year and was tailed off at Kempton last time; has plenty to prove and needs to turn things around. |

Has gone the wrong way since a promising debut over 7f last summer; now returns from a gelding operation and with blinkers fitted; turf debut; bit to prove. |
