27th Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Signed off for John and Thady Gosden with low-grade AW win in March; about 11l behind Max Of Stars when last of four finishers on recent stable/hurdle debut at Hexham (2m, good) but positives can still be drawn from that performance; sports refitted tongue-tie and first-time visor. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Didn't live up to his very good Flat pedigree when with Godolphin but managed to win AW handicap in March (1m3f; RPR 69); changed hands for £16,000 soon afterwards and has travelled from South Wales to make hurdling debut for stable with 6-20 strike-rate here. |

Five-race maiden who is seemingly one of the yard's lesser lights, only fourth in low-grade handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f; tongue-tie/blinkers fitted) when last seen; however, pedigree suggests this longer trip may squeeze improvement out of him; not dismissed. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Industrious and usually dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f; turf strike-rate is 1-20, however, and he was tailed off at Thirsk (good) on penultimate start, before he failed to shine at Newcastle's Northumberland Plate meeting (AW) for the third year in a row; not the percentage call. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |

Industrious and usually dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f; turf strike-rate is 1-20 and he was tailed off at Thirsk last time; back to AW and he's 7-34 in this sphere, but he's not shone at this meeting (16th in the Plate, 12th in the Vase) in the last two years. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |

Five-time Flat winner; ended losing run when winning a small-field novice handicap hurdle three weeks ago; has the ability to play a big part but breaking on terms is an issue for him. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Lots of Flat racing and lowly rated these days; hadn't shown much over hurdles but kept finding to finish a 5.5l third over 2m4f here 22 days ago on his handicap debut, and this longer trip looks the obvious move. |

3rd 11 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |

Lowly rated these days on the Flat and has shown little in three runs over hurdles; makes handicap hurdle debut up in trip and needs to show significant improvement. |

8th Apr 2023 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Has improved since switched to handicaps last month, finishing second of seven at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) and fourth of eight at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta), on both occasions shaping as though an even stiffer test would suit; down in grade and makes plenty of appeal. |

14th Mar 2023 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Made a promising handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f) last week, finishing nicely for second and improving on her 6f/7f efforts; gives the strong impression this even longer distance will be right up her street; open to further progress; respected off same mark. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner who ran his best race in a while here a fortnight ago (1m2f, hit traffic late on); one of the likelier winners back to the usual blinkers from a visor and back up in trip. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Dual course winner over 1m4f; back off the same mark as for the latest last August but may find this trip sharp enough for him these days. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up at Brighton (1m4f, soft) last September but he's been out of sorts under both codes since including a remote fifth over hurdles at Plumpton last week; blinkers now return but he's 1-30 on AW and has plenty to prove back on the Flat. |

Exposed maiden; some promise over the winter, including C&D, but he's been well beaten in three runs back from a five-month absence; best watched. |

Ran okay in fourth different piece of headgear over C&D two runs ago but not nearly as effective in same blinkers here latest. |

7th Feb 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Inconsistent maiden; ran creditably in first-time blinkers here (7f) most recently but isn't guaranteed to back up that effort, let alone get off the mark; others preferred. |

22nd Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

0-9; ran well (40-1 fourth) over C&D three outings ago but the rest of her form is unconvincing; not a solid option and much depends on how well she responds to new headgear. |
