9th Feb 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Confirmed the promise of his debut in October (6f, good) by winning a 6f novice here one month later; impressive dropped to 5f at Southwell on New Year's Day when he made all to record a near-4l success; not obviously thrown in for this handicap debut but he is unexposed and can't be ruled out. |

21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three course wins early in the year and he is now 3lb lower than for the latest of them; dropped down the weights on the back of some disappointing turf runs and he should be a more potent force back under these conditions. |

17th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
12-time winner split between turf and AW; his last success was off 3lb higher at Leicester (6f) last August and he showed signs of a revival with his late headway at Southwell (5f, Tapeta) last month; has each-way claims if he can build on that and yard is in good form. |

24th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Recorded back-to-back C&D wins last October (the second off 3lb lower) but the wheels came off in his hat-trick bid in November; back from 161 days off with a point to prove. |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Comes here chasing a C&D hat-trick after two narrow wins last month; still feasibly weighted up 3lb and should be in the thick of the action. |

Much better than this on AW in his pomp but there hasn't been much to celebrate in five runs for this yard, including returned to AW when last of seven over C&D two weeks ago; another ease in grade today but he's risky. |

0-6 on AW but has shown promise on the Tapeta at Newcastle; can take a strong hold and he won't find it easy trying to dominate in this field. |

20th Feb 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Scored over 5f at Beverley in August and he made an encouraging return after 13 weeks off when seventh over C&D 11 days ago, tiring only late on; he can build on that now off a handy-looking mark. |

0-4 on AW but he ran well over C&D twice in the autumn; dropped away having helped force the pace at Wolverhampton when last seen in November; others appeal more. |

Continues to edge down the weights and he's run the odd fair race this year, but he's without a win since November 2023 and it's hard to be confident regarding his claims. |

He has run some fair races for this yard but all four wins, the latest of them in November 2023, have come over 6f on Polytrack; solid effort over 1m last week; each-way shout. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner who is 0-29 on turf but he ran well to finish third over C&D (good; 100-30 favourite) three weeks ago; rallied well in that race and he should be in the thick of things again off only 1lb higher. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |

Led close home to score at Wolverhampton just before Christmas but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; a 0-28 turf record is enough reason to look elsewhere. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Led close home to score at Wolverhampton just before Christmas and ran creditably over C&D in February; raced wide from an outside draw back at Wolverhampton last time; that run is best ignored and he can bounce back. |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Conditions no problem but only ninth behind a couple of these over C&D last week and he'll be 2lb lower from the weekend; type to come good again soon. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

C&D win 12 months ago came off an 8lb higher mark; pick of this summer's form gives him claims but he has suffered heavy defeats on his last three starts; too much to prove for now. |
