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 |

Tough sort but has done his winning this year in Class 4, including at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) last time when taking record to 8-55; faces a tougher task back up two grades. |

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. |

28th Sep 2023 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |

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. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Second of 14 off 1lb higher behind Thunder Roar at Ayr (1m) last September on his favoured soft ground, and didn't run badly when 4l 11th of 21 in the Lincoln at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) on his reappearance; however, others have more compelling credentials. |

Second of 14 off this mark behind Thunder Roar at Ayr (1m) last September on his favoured soft ground; however, he was below that level more often than not last season and is likely to find this too competitive. |

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. |
