9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Effective on turf but still has a better strike-rate on AW and ended his rather truncated 2025 campaign with defeats (admittedly not entirely disgraced) in major handicaps over this C&D, finishing sixth then ninth; needs to raise his game on reappearance. |
16/1 |

26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Couple of sound efforts back on turf since his productive spell on AW; has something to find with Akkadian Thunder on Royal Ascot running last time but that effort suggests he could be set for further prize-money, which again goes down to sixth place. |
14/1 |

6th 16 (31) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Can lead; progressive on AW since dead-heating for most recent turf win, at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) last May; ran a solid race when a close fourth of ten back on turf at Haydock (7f, good) in April, but several of these should prove better treated. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Handicap mark not impossible judged on his C&D win last May off 3lb lower; running okay in defeat this winter and it would be no surprise to see him in the thick of the action. |
12/1 |

6th 2 (4) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Good record on AW; as good as ever this year, finishing fourth (behind Cool Hoof Luke) in a Listed race at Lingfield five weeks ago and then second in a handicap back at Lingfield last week; stamina for 7f has to be taken on trust (one turf attempt saw him finish tailed off) but he hasn't got much to find on form. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 (4) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He was returning from a 147-day break when readily accounting for eight rivals in the corresponding event 12 months ago; 10lb higher this time around but he has earned his lofty rating; close fourth in a Listed event here four weeks ago; contender. |

9st 10lb |
Consistent rather than progressive maiden; strong favourite for a Lingfield handicap ten days ago (7f) but he pulled far too hard early and could only manage second; returns to sprinting and still has time to do better. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
The winner of ten of her 39 starts, notably when scampering clear of ten rivals in a Class 3 fillies' handicap at Newmarket three weeks ago; this represents a much stiffer assignment. |
33/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Three wins last year and campaign concluded with good fourth of 11 over this C&D (good); down the field on reappearance at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March but may have needed the run and is not ruled out. |
14/1 |

8th 2 (1) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Seven wins from 18 AW runs, three of them here; wouldn't look to have much in hand of this mark but she goes well fresh and the booking of Oisin Murphy is a notable one. |

26th Jul 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Sister to Thrave, who is among today's opponents; best AW effort (close third behind subsequent winners) came over 1m; has appeared to find 7f and 1m2f unsuitable since switched to turf; interesting returned to what may prove her optimum distance. |
7/1 |

15th Jul 2023 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Made the frame in two AW handicaps this spring (1m/8.6f) but was safely held in basement-grade classified on last month's turf debut (7f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces); clearly needs to do much better over new trip here. |
