22nd Jun 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Strike-rate of 4-8 and unbeaten in two runs since gelded, winning with a bit in hand at both Newmarket (1m, good to soft) and over a little shorter at Chester (soft); can race freely so this big-field scenario should suit, but whether he'll be good enough is doubtful. |

11th May 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Dual winner at 2 who took his form up another notch after a gelding operation when making a winning reappearance in a 15-runner Newmarket handicap (1m, good to soft) 22 days ago; may have been helped by being held up in a race where the leaders appeared to go hard but it was still a pleasing performance and his stable's continued good form provides hope for better again. |

Had 7f wins on AW and good ground in his six-race 2yo career; fair fifth of 12 in a York nursery on final outing, when upped to 1m on good to soft; gelded since; needs to resume headway but yard is among the winners. |

11th May 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Promising start on AW over the winter, winning Wolverhampton maiden and Newcastle novice (both 7f); makes handicap and turf debut back from 118 days off; given who trains him this might have been the target for a while. |
12/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
13th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Third over 7f at Wolverhampton on debut and beat a long odds-on Godolphin rival to win another maiden over that same C&D two weeks later; saw the trip out well on both occasions and apparently has just one serious rival today among those who have run. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Already a three-time scorer (around 1m) in 2025 and he comes here on the back of a very good second of 13 in 1m Newcastle handicap; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
9/2 |

2nd 5 (12) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Career win number eight when prevailing narrowly in a Class 4 at Beverley (extended 1m) and tends to find Class 2s too tough these days, so excused his Doncaster run; only 1-17 on the AW but could be a factor. |
14/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
4yo with relatively few miles on the clock; better than ever when winning Listed race at Chelmsford (7f, AW) and ran just as well when close fourth in Group 3 at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) later in July; bit more is required in this higher grade but she's certainly going the right way. |

Unable to threaten on last three starts but he's well treated on form as recent as June and perhaps the first-time blinkers will give him a boost. |

5th Oct 2023 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
7f winner at two but wasn't seeing out his races this year until dropped back to 6f at Yarmouth (close third on good ground) two weeks ago; still unexposed at this distance; interesting off the same mark. |

Hasn't this year matched form of 7f AW win from last September and didn't get home over that trip at Newbury last time; unlikely to be inconvenienced by the return to 6f. |

Has produced his peak RPR of 102 in both C&D attempts, including a win off 3lb higher in this race last year; Conor Whiteley takes off a bonus 5lb; interesting returned to this scenario. |

5th 2 (7) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Has shown signs of a resurgence and is back down to 0-90 company for the first time since successful at Ayr (1m) last July, but all four wins have come on soft ground so drying conditions wouldn't be ideal; stable triple-handed. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 2 |

Ran well when fifth of 18 at York (1m, good) three weeks ago on his second start of the season; his four wins (one here) have come on soft going so slower ground today would aid his cause; could be a contender. |

All four wins were last summer, beaten nine times this season but there has been the occasional good run and he's becoming well handicapped; goes on good to soft but anything softer would be a worry; gets new blinkers. |
