Soft ground was no issue back in the spring when winning in novice and handicap company; progress has rather stalled but it wasn't a bad run last time and she's on a decent mark. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Last summer's Ascot win (5f) not quite a distant memory but there has been little to cheer since, with poor starts (and a refusal to race) becoming a feature; can't be supported with confidence. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Looked a sprinter with a big future when winning a well-contested 5f handicap at Ascot last summer but he refused to race at Goodwood 17 days later and he's been well beaten in three runs this year, starting slowly at both Epsom and Ascot on his last two outings; this is his first start at 6f and given he has been headstrong, it isn't sure to suit; not short of ability but the risks are obvious. |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Up-and-coming sprinter in 2024, best form when beating a high-class rival over C&D (good; handles good to soft) last July; however, he refused to race later that month and hasn't been sighted in two runs this year; too talented to ignore but he's back from another break today. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well treated on the pick of his form, the latest when second of eight off 7lb higher at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) in January, but not matched that form since and is just 2-32. |
12/1 |

4 (8) |
1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
None too consistent but both his wins have come over C&D and he does seem well suited by the track; on a good mark back from four months off and a big run would be no surprise, for all his propensity to miss the break is a nagging concern. |
9/2 |

4th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-15 on turf; runner-up off 4lb higher at Kempton (6f, AW) in January but he was comfortably held over C&D in a 0-58 36 days ago; others preferred. |

14th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won debut (5f, good to soft) last July; not so good in her four runs since, never able to challenge over 6f this spring in her two handicaps; something to prove even if pedigree suggests 7f should not be a problem. |
12/1 |

27th May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Essentially disappointing given the impression she made on debut last season and her mark hasn't budged an inch since finishing midfield over C&D four weeks ago (good to firm); others preferred. |
16/1 |

25th May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made a winning debut at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) last July; disappointing in three runs since, latest at Ripon upped to 6f; not progressing and has something to prove. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark with a narrow success in a four-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month; dropped away over C&D last time and others bring stronger claims. |
10/1 |
|
7th 6 (10) |
23rd Sep 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the 11th attempt when beating Battle Point at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) 19 days ago; that was a last-gasp win in a four-runner race but he travelled well for a long way and is only 2lb higher here; respected back on Tapeta. |
4/1 |

1st 3 (4) |
4th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Best effort since debut when making the frame at Chelmsford last week but was still beaten just over 3l; more is needed. |

21st Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Holds weak claims on her novice form (clear best effort on debut) and has failed to beat a rival in both runs this term; however, the switch to handicap level may spark improvement. |
20/1 |

7th 6 (6) |
2nd Jul 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
She didn't run badly on her Chelmsford debut in October but she hasn't built on it in two subsequent runs; soft ground might not have suited last time but she still needs marked improvement. |
