9st 4lb |
Back to winning ways with his Class 5 win at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) in May; respectable efforts twice since but he would be more appealing on slower ground. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Left disappointing seasonal debut behind when scoring at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) last month; not discredited in big field at Thirsk soon afterwards and has the inside draw here but others look better handicapped. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Up in grade after winning a Class 5 at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) but had dropped to a tempting mark; wouldn't count the 6lb rise against him. |

29th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Marked improvement the last twice, winning a soft-ground 6f maiden at Ripon in May and following up with a front-running handicap win at Kempton last month (6f); 5lb rise to deal with against stronger opposition but his ceiling is yet to be established. |
5/1 |

23rd Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Lightly raced colt who followed his Ripon maiden win (6f, soft) last month with a front-running success at Kempton nine days ago; penalty asks more of him but it's interesting that Latin Lover won the same Kempton event before defying a penalty in this race 12 months ago; unraced on good or faster. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a C&D maiden in May 2023 and made all at Newcastle (5f, AW) this April off 2lb lower; however, he's finished last when back on turf for last two outings, so there are mixed messages. |
16/1 |

27th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Prominent racer; made all to win a 5f handicap at Newcastle in April off 3lb lower; next time was a write off and he returns from a break in a race packed with other pace influences. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had wind surgery prior to Ayr reappearance effort that seemed to be needed; gained most recent success off 4lb higher over C&D (good to soft) just over a year ago and looks interesting back here. |
4/1 |
|
6th 8 (4) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
His form went the wrong way after he made a winning reappearance at Carlisle last May but he returns having had wind surgery and the break may have helped; 2lb lower than when last successful and could be involved. |
9/1 |

8th 4 (10) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |

Made virtually all off 1lb higher on seasonal debut at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May but not really firing on all cylinders since (six more runs) and has stamina to prove on first venture beyond 1m. |

11th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Fourth foal; half-brother to winners Bickerstaffe (5f-6f; RPR 106) and Springwood Drive (5f/6f; 78); dam placed 1m2f-1m4f, from useful family; there's potential in his pedigree and a market check is advised on debut. |

Yet to get within 8l of winning and has plenty to prove going beyond 1m for the first time. |

20th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Not shown much in his five starts so far, failing to improve for a step up in trip here (7f) last month (well behind Available Angel); makes little appeal. |

19th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
0-21 but regularly running to an RPR in the 70s over the winter; form has dipped more recently but he's been given a big chance by the handicapper and could have a big run in him from the inside stall. |
9/1 |
|
6th 2 (6) |
4th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
20-race maiden; not beaten far when sixth of eight at Windsor in July (5f, good to firm), but soundly beaten last two starts; now tried in blinkers (fair effort in first-time visor); others stronger. |
