25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
All of his five AW wins have been at longer trips but he went close over C&D last summer and was runner-up over 1m at Chelmsford last month; on same mark as for that last run and has possibilities if he gets a good pace and some luck; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
All five wins have been on AW, including two at this track; bounced back with creditable third at Lingfield (1m) last month and he caught the eye of the stewards when a never-dangerous sixth there (7f) last time; looks interesting on this step back up in trip and he should get a decent pace to aim at. |
8/1 |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two course wins, at 1m4f and 1m; has raced only once at 7f, over C&D in August (favourite), and although a fast-finishing runner-up, the early stages weren't too encouraging as he was taken off his legs; if sharper in the early stages he'd look interesting. |

15th Nov 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Habitual slow starter; made a flying start to life with this yard in the summer, winning handicaps at Lingfield (1m, AW), Chepstow (1m2f) and Chelmsford (1m2f, AW); not so good the last twice but those runs were on slow ground; return to AW in his favour but still to convince he needs this far. |

Often slowly away but had been running well until a remote fourth on heavy at Newbury and does handle those conditions; could bounce back. |

24th Jun 2023 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Upped to this trip for the first time when landing a C&D handicap 23 days ago; had a bit to spare on that occasion but this looks a much stronger race. |

Had cheekpieces on last two starts, on first occasion winning over C&D in February (3lb higher today); seventh of eight two months later but not beaten far; could have her say again. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time winner, split between turf and AW; last success was off 2lb higher at Salisbury (1m) last August but he's been out of sorts in last three runs and needs a major revival; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |
10/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ran well at Bath in June but has lacked consistency this year; 7yo who's far from guaranteed to take advantage of being 2lb below last winning mark. |
14/1 |

4th 5 (5) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Recent form a bit patchy, but his second of 11 at Bath (1m, good; first-time visor) on his penultimate start took his record off today's mark to 313212; does most of his racing over shorter these days, but shouldn't have a problem with this trip. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His four wins have been from 7f-1m2f at Chelmsford, latest in February 2023; good second there in February (1m2f) but he hasn't done as well since, last twice over this trip on turf; others appeal more. |
14/1 |

All four win over 7f-1m2f on Chelmsford AW; losing run up to 21 and hasn't appeared to stay in his few previous goes over this far; others preferred. |
