18th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Having dropped down the weights he returned to form with a neck second at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) three weeks ago; has also run well on Polytrack; can be in the mix back up 3lb if producing another good run. |

28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Dead-heated in 8.6f Wolverhampton novice in April but became very disappointing during the summer; suffered heavy defeat when tried in blinkers (now removed) this month; needs to turn a corner. |

2nd Sep 2023 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Dead-heated in 8.5f AW novice event at Wolverhampton in April; hasn't progressed in handicaps and more new headgear tried now. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Impressed on his first attempt at 6f, making all to beat 12 rivals at Nottingham in July; not ideally drawn in either run since and he isn't fully exposed as a sprinter just yet; cheekpieces are now added. |
5/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
27th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won in good style at Nottingham (6f, good) last month on second start back from an absence and first crack at sprinting; failed to back that up at York but didn't run badly and this very lightly raced 5yo retains potential for his powerful connections; no surprise to see a bold show. |
9/2 |
|
8th 3 (11) |
26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who delivered a career-best when dropped to 6f (good ground) at Nottingham three weeks ago, always prominent and strong at the finish; a 7lb rise for that win doesn't look generous but he still has potential at this trip. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
3-51 career record, earning two of those wins in AW classified events at about 1m2f in January; not disgraced on his last two starts but others make more appeal. |
9/1 |
|
5th 9 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Prominent racer who won classified events at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m2f) in January but he's found things tough back in handicaps in his last three runs; has something to prove again and his sole turf win was in May 2023. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Close third at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May but hasn't quite reproduced that form since, including 6l fourth of eight back at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm again) in this headgear combination six weeks ago. |
12/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Close third over C&D in May since when he's been up against it in Class 2s won by a Group horse and then the John Smith's Cup, in which he ran perfectly well for a 66-1 chance; very capable of a big show, though the cheekpieces are new and so too is Donagh Murphy claiming 7lb. |
8/1 |
|
8th 10 (17) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Back to form with close third of six at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May; however, only seventh of 16 at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last time on ground he should have handled; can be slowly away; others preferred. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 5f 11y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Six-race maiden but he ran his best race so far when finishing well out wide to go close here (11.6f, good to soft) two weeks ago; only 1lb higher than for that and he's open to more progress on step up to this trip; interesting contender. |

29th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Ended a run of poor efforts with success in 1m handicap at Ffos Las eight days ago; this C&D winner needs to back it up now under a 4lb penalty. |

1st 2 (10) |
21st Sep 2026 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Safely held on all three starts since returning from a break in June but has slipped to a very good mark and was a three-time winner on soft/heavy ground in 2024; must be considered now that conditions are in his favour again. |
10/1 |
|
8th 4 (3) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Regressive 8yo who returned from a break with two low-key runs (8.3f/7f) in June/July; should be fine over today's longer trip and is too well handicapped to rule out but needs to up his game. |
12/1 |
