22nd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
0-6 on turf since switching to current stable in August but yet to run a bad race and has slipped to a tempting mark; sure to be suited by the return to this C&D and needs to be taken very seriously. |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Had a fine year in 2023, winning five times including his finest hour in this race off a 13lb higher mark; signs of retaining ability this year, including for new yard, without managing to put his head in front; each-way claims but others are stronger for win purposes. |

15th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
12lb lower than when winning a Class 2 handicap at Ascot last October (5f, good to soft); 0-10 in 2024 but he retains ability and there has been clear promise in four runs for his new stable; hasn't shone in two previous visits here but something bigger is brewing. |

Nicely treated, having gained last three wins off 2lb higher, the most recent on turf in July; failed to get home over 6f back on AW last time; return to 5f is ideal and has won over C&D. |

Record on Tapeta reads: 12228 (all at Newcastle) but he's become hard to win with and does most of his racing over 5f; will need to improve on recent turf efforts. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Equally effective at 5f and 6f; won at Chester (good ground; handles any) in August and wasn't disgraced in a big field at York two weeks ago; gets on well with William Pyle and likely to be thereabouts. |

12th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
First win beyond 5f when getting up late on over 6f at Chester (good ground; handles any) six weeks ago; nudged up just 2lb but this is a stronger contest and he'll need another personal best at the age of seven. |

Front-runs; all seven wins at 5f and he faded when ninth of 25 in the 6f Wokingham at Royal Ascot when last seen ten weeks ago; this is less competitive but doubts about his stamina remain. |

Campaigned mostly at 5f in the last two years, placed at this venue the last twice; effective over 6f in the past and is a stone below last winning mark, so can't be ruled out. |

30th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Still seeking his first win in 2024 but he's slipped down the weights and went close to rewarding good support when second over C&D 16 days ago; more appealing than many. |

1st Jan 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Perked up with a close fifth over C&D in November but he was never involved when eighth behind Oriental Prince here last month; that took his losing run to 22 and he's a frequent slow starter who needs things to go his way; blinkers back on. |

2nd Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

Veteran whose losing run stretches back to March 2022; well beaten in two starts this winter and not sure he's in the form required to capitalise on his lowly mark; strong pace would help matters. |

Much better on AW than turf; recent PB when going down by a neck at Southwell in September but didn't run his race back on an artificial surface at Kempton a fortnight ago; has just second run here. |

Won the Gosforth Park Cup over C&D in June off 4lb lower; he has run well in hot sprint handicaps in four runs since, most recently third of 22 in the Ayr Silver Cup (best of the far-side group); two wins and a second from five C&D runs; major player. |

Well held in the Silver Cup in two of the last three runnings (out of sorts 12 months ago) but he was beaten only 2l in the Gold Cup (good) in 2022 and is in good form this time round, having done well from an unfavourable draw at York and another useful effort in the Portland at Doncaster last week; not far away. |

14th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Reliable type who resumed winning ways over C&D 12 days ago, deserving extra credit for overcoming a steady gallop; big shout despite a 3lb rise, for yard well among the winners. |

Has won nine races, four on the AW including one here (6f); fair third at Southwell in November (5f) but didn't run quite so well over C&D last time; could bounce back. |
