1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Regressed since notching a slow-ground hat-trick early in his 3yo season and he was well beaten on reappearance (6f, good to firm); dropped another 4lb but he's unproven over this trip; lots to prove. |
9/1 |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Regressed since notching a soft-ground hat-trick early in his 3yo season and is entitled to need this after nine months off; only run once on ground faster than good, when a beaten-favourite, so these conditions would be a concern. |

Rattled off a hat-trick during the first half of 2023, all on good to soft or slower; not a lot to shout about since, however. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won just one of her 19 starts for Alice Haynes but it came at this track (5f, soft); her best effort in 2025 came on seasonal return (6f, good to firm) and although she ended the campaign quietly it was over 7f and 1m; sold for 1,200gns in December; intriguing runner on stable debut. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't fire over 7f last month and has stamina to prove on this first attempt at 1m but was unlucky not to finish closer than fifth at Haydock (7f, good; denied clear run) two runs ago and has slipped to a dangerous mark. |

11th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Multiple AW winner; out of sorts this winter, however, and the addition of blinkers needs to turn things around. |

15th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won three times over 6f in early 2024 and was placed in a valuable race on sole attempt at 7f but is yet to strike form since returning from a break in December and needs a good boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |
12/1 |

24th Jul 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Winless beyond 5f or since her 2yo season, and it's been possible to call her well handicapped for ages; outran her mark again at Salisbury latest, however (6f, good), missing out by under 1l; some appeal. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
She was returning from a five-month break when finishing in midfield at Doncaster 13 days ago (5f, good to soft), a race where she tired in the final furlong but still did best of the far-side group; two wins and two seconds from her six C&D runs and she has solid claims off a fair mark. |
