20th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
3yo who has won just one of his 16 starts and is unraced on slow turf; when runner-up at Musselburgh last time he was beaten 11l but it was still a positive performance in today's context and he's a possible player. |
6/1 |

Off the mark at the ninth attempt at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in April and now 3lb lower, but hasn't shone in two starts since returning to the AW and was behind My Opinion over C&D 13 days ago. |

7th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just 2-31 but had dropped in the weights and undergone wind surgery before finishing a creditable third of ten at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in December; each-way claims if backing it up. |

17th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

He's been disappointing since July and has undergone wind surgery since finishing seventh here (1m2f) last month; drops in trip/grade and a market check looks prudent. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Won on Jersey and Chepstow (both 1m2f, good) under Brodie Hampson earlier in the year, but finished behind three of these at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last month; needs to bounce back from that. |
7/1 |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

4/1 |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Back on the mainland after game win under Brodie Hampson in Jersey (1m2f, good) in April; this race is almost certainly stronger but he's still on a workable mark and probably won't be far away; cheekpieces refitted. |

20th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ten-race maiden but he has a solid record in handicaps this year including an eyecatching second at Catterick (7f, soft) on his penultimate run; same mark here and he shouldn't be far away. |
16/1 |

5th 11 (6) |

23rd Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

held up in rear, outpaced and struggling 4f out, still plenty to do when switched to near side over 2f out, wandered around over 1f out, headway inside final furlong, went third final 110yds, went second towards finish, nearest finish |

30th Aug 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Modest on the Flat in Britain with Rebecca Menzies, sole win coming on Newcastle AW; runner-up final two starts in low-grade Pontefract handicaps before bought for 4,600gns at Tattersalls July Sales; ground should suit but likely best watched on hurdles debut. |
50/1 |

2nd 3 (6) |
1st Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |

Sole win came off 5lb higher at Newcastle (1m, AW) last May; his first show this term was his second of eight at this track (1m2f) eight days ago, which has reignited some hopes. |

0-9 on the Flat, with peak RPR of 58; acts on soft but enough to prove on hurdle debut with tongue-strap replacing usual cheekpieces. |

A case can be made on some of her form but she's not been great of late and returning to 6f casts further doubts. |
6/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
5th May 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 33y Class 6 |

26th Apr 2023 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Placed over 7f on turf (good) and AW; best efforts give her claims from this mark but she'll need to better her three efforts this year; cheekpieces may help; not ruled out. |
