22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Sent handicapping for three wins (all on softer than good; unraced on heavy) and a controversial second from four starts this spring, all at odds on; good to firm may have been against him in June on his only appearance since; absent three months but he catches the eye with the ground back in his favour and his sire gives encouragement for 1m2f. |

25th Jun 2023 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Three wins and a controversial second in four handicap runs this year, climbing 31lb in the weights as a result; suspect there is more to come and he's one to take seriously; untested on faster than good to soft. |

6th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Form dipped on AW last time; has a consistent record (32212) on turf, most recently second behind a progressive and well-treated rival at Redcar (1m, good to soft) on seasonal debut; enters calculations off same mark back in this sphere. |
12/1 |

7th 10 (2) |
13th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Progressive at two, winning a 7f maiden at Brighton in September; bumped into a handicap blot on reappearance at Redcar six weeks ago; still capable of better. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
4th May 2023 Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Placed on first three starts, before comfortably winning from the front in a five-runner maiden at Brighton (7f, good) last September in first-time cheekpieces; unraced on softer than good; 1m can help with further improvement on this handicap/seasonal debut. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
He has been threatening to add to his six wins, with a third at Pontefract and second at Thirsk on his last two starts; on the downside he has been unplaced in all seven visits to York. |
7/1 |

2nd 11 (11) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
He has run well over C&D in the past, including in May, and he didn't run badly when third of six in a Class 3 handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) ten days ago; each-way shout. |
6/1 |

3rd 7 (1) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Comfortably beat Rock Opera over C&D in spring 2025, albeit was in better form at the time, that success the middle leg of a hat-trick; not solid on 2026 results but has slipped to an attractive mark. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has modest 2-34 career strike-rate and needs to rebound from a poor run here in December but her C&D second two starts ago was a good effort and she has obvious claims if judged on that performance. |
10/1 |
|
7th 10 |
23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
AW winner last September and in March (1m2f); a straggler over hurdles, hence the rock-bottom mark (and 4lb wrong today) but she's willing on the Flat and she might well fare much better now handicapping. |

6th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has been rather disappointing since C&D novice win in April (tried over 1m4f last time); visor replaces cheekpieces; bit to prove now. |

4th 10 (11) |
29th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Won a Wolverhampton novice (8.6f, Tapeta) in April but she failed to beat a rival in her first two handicaps and was down the field again at Kempton (1m) last time; still lightly raced but she needs cheekpieces to make a difference at this new trip. |
