8th Sep 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
In good form after returning in May including wins at Newmarket (1m, soft) and Chester (7.7f, good), but out of the frame in his last three starts; may not want the ground to dry out too much and probably needs further than this now in any case. |

26th Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Progressive against his own age group, winning two of his first three starts (1m, soft/about 7f, good) before having a troubled run in the Britannia at Royal Ascot; however, he wasn't the same horse at Newmarket in July and an easy 7f may be a bare minimum for him. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Coaxed back to his best by the Quinns this year, winning 6f handicaps here and at Chester and then running a fine race in a hot sprint handicap at the Curragh last month; weakened in the closing stages of the Stewards' Cup, a race in which he was 5lb well in, and a personal best is needed to defy this highest mark of his career over the shortest trip he will have tackled. |
18/1 |

13th 25 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Beat his 21 rivals at York in May and added a handicap at Chester (6f, good) last month; ran a fine race behind Sondad at the Curragh two weeks ago and is 7lb better off for half a length this time; officially the best handicapped horse in the race (5lb ahead of his mark) and another big run should be forthcoming. |

2nd 6 (20) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |
9st 9lb |
Ex-Richard Hannon; off the mark for the Quinn team when making virtually all in a 22-runner handicap at York Dante meeting (6f, good); bounced straight back from a lesser run at Thirsk when second at Ripon; made all for a 6f Chester win three weeks ago; stable won this with Mr Wagyu in 2022. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
His last win was in April 2024 but he hasn't been with John Butler for long and he showed signs of a revival when fourth at Newcastle (1m, AW) last month; has claims if he can build on that and he should be fine back at this trip. |
9/2 |

4th 2 (7) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
A useful 1m winner at his best for Jack Channon; offered little in two runs for Brian Toomey this spring though and came in last of 14 for John Butler in 7f handicap here four weeks ago; no surprise if he took a step forward though with new yard among the winners. |
16/1 |

14th 10 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Smart handicap form for Jack Channon in 2024; well beaten in two runs last year and no sign of a revival in two runs for Brian Toomey this year; starts out for John Butler off a much-reduced mark; worth a market check. |

21st Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ran on well to make a winning reappearance in a 1m handicap at Southwell in April; fair fourth at Newmarket next time but she flopped at Musselburgh 18 days ago; quick turnaround suggests nothing sinister came to light and she still has potential; down in grade and up in trip. |
11/2 |

11th 7 (7) |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Made a successful handicap debut after six months off at Southwell (1m, AW) in April, but probably put up a better effort when fourth of seven at Newmarket (1m, soft) last month; both the dam's side of her pedigree and the way she performed there suggest the extra furlong should suit. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Ran on good to soft on debut and all turf starts since have been on soft; that poses a question and he needs better than he showed at Newmarket on latest start, but he was a runaway winner of 8.5f Epsom novice the time before; bit to prove on this third attempt at 1m2f but his trainer has won three of the last five runnings of this race. |

0-5 but he was a good third of six in a handicap at Nottingham (1m2f, soft) a fortnight ago and shaped as though he may benefit from this drop back in trip; trainer won this in 2018 and 2019 and he holds solid claims. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent and hard to win with; better over C&D early in the month but typically failed to build on it at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago (said to have been unsuited by racing wide throughout from stall 9); Dicko The Legend looks his yard's best shot. |

21st Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His only win came in a 7f Doncaster maiden as a 2yo; struggled for David Evans thus far but he's dropped 22lb since August and many of those runs have come over an inadequate 6f; the booking of Rossa Ryan and the addition of a visor point to a better showing this evening; confidence would increase if backed. |

Failed to go on after looking smart on his Ascot debut but he steadied the ship when hooded for the first time and edging home in a 1m2f handicap at Sandown (good to soft) in August; returns off a 4lb higher mark but now has to follow one good run with another. |

14th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning return at Kempton (1m, AW) in March and two good efforts on turf in May, including when fourth of 11 in a warm handicap at Haydock (1m, good to firm); was behind Metal Merchant then, but may have been unlucky not to finish second; not so good back there a fortnight later (behind Good Gracious), but a player if bouncing back; stable won this in 2016 and 2019. |

19th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
In the frame in ten of his 12 starts since his latest success, as when fourth of ten at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) 15 days ago where he looked unlucky not to finish closer; his consistency means he gets little respite from the handicapper, but should run his race again. |

4th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Nothing wrong with any of his three course efforts and cheekpieces have helped lately; has had plenty of chances off this sort of mark but should run his race again and the step back up from 7f won't hurt. |
8/1 |

4th 3 (11) |
8th Sep 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Placed in eight of his ten starts since winning at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) last summer including when beaten a neck at Kempton (7f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month; 1lb higher, but each-way claims again. |
