7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won debut at Ascot (5f, soft) in sole 2yo start; missed 2024 but made a respectable return at Ripon, only to find the tough 6f on Newcastle AW stretching him in August; has potential back at 5f on handicap debut. |

29th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Made a bright start with his 5f win at Ascot (soft) in May 2023; didn't return to the track until this month but he showed promise again when third at Ripon (5f, good); entitled to be sharper for the run and bold show looks assured now stepping up to 6f. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
55,000gns Land Force colt who made a bright start with his 5f win at Ascot (5f, soft) in May 2023; been on the sidelines since then but he recorded an RPR of 86 on his debut and needs a close look on his comeback. |

20th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Easily won three-runner novice on debut at Windsor (5f, soft) and good second at Ascot (5f, soft) next time; down the field in the Woodcote at Epsom (6f, good to firm) most recently but he's likely to be back on a slow surface for this first nursery start and could play a leading role. |

10th 6 (11) |
2nd Jun 2023 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Comfortably beat his two rivals at Windsor, then finished second of five at Ascot; both were over 5f on soft; faces a different scenario and bigger field this time but he's a big player on RPRs. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Beaten 23 times since winning a maiden at Newbury (6.5f, good to firm) in June 2023; several good runs in defeat for Tim Easterby this year, including a short-head second at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) ten days ago; up 2lb but still feasibly weighted. |
7/2 |

2nd 7 (4) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-22 since his Newbury maiden win in 2023 but he's on a reduced mark and ran well when sixth of 15 at York (1m, good to firm) last time; should get a good pace back in trip and has each-way claims if he gets the breaks. |

30th May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
At 625,000gns he was the joint top-priced lot at the Craven Breeze-Up Sale; failed to justify favouritism (8-13) on soft ground at Ascot but he was only beaten 2l and, if taking after his sire Blue Point, this ground will be more up his street. |

13th May 2023 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
110,000gns foal, 625,000gns (joint top-priced lot at Craven Breeze Up Sale) 2yo; Blue Point half-brother to 7f 2yo winner Ludo's Landing, out of 6f 2yo winner (including Group 3); sire, in his racing days, had a great record (5-6) at Ascot and yard has a good record in this race; respected. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Nine-race maiden whose best efforts have come on AW; latest Lingfield third (6f, good to firm) wasn't too bad but he will need more to come out on top here. |

3rd 2 (1) |
8th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

pressed leader, hung left under 2f out, went second over 1f out, lost second inside final furlong, weakened towards finish |

9th 8 (8) |
10th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
0-7 but second or third four times, including when third of six on last month's Lingfield return (6f, AW; first start since being gelded); each-way claims if stepping forward for the run and responding positively to the blinkers. |

13th May 2023 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
21,000gns foal, £200,000 (breeze-up) 2yo; Havana Grey half-brother to four winners, notably fairly useful pair Born To Finish (5.7f-7f) and Mark Of Respect (1m including 2yo/Bahrain); one of several interesting newcomers. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Resurgent 5yo who has form figures of 11222 for his current yard and who has been knocking on the door at Windsor (5f) and Brighton (5.3f) in his last two starts; 3lb well in off the same mark as those last two runs and he has leading claims back in trip. |

2nd 4 (4) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Back to something like his best since the hood came off for this yard, winning twice this summer and going back up a stone in the weights; another solid effort off this mark in an apprentice handicap at Windsor last Monday and looks set to go well once more. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Comfortably won over C&D and at Wolverhampton on first two starts for Robert Cowell; back up another 7lb when creditable second at Catterick, which has been followed by a 3lb raise but 3lb-claiming rider is recruited; to win this may demand his best form since early 2024 but he's firmly in the mix. |
