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. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Did best of the prominent racers when third of 19 over C&D last month, splitting Andesite and Lir Speciale in the process; not so good dropped into a Class 4 at Musselburgh ten days ago; minor placing perhaps his best hope. |
12/1 |

4th 1 (4) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to joining Tim Easterby and he has been competitive in some useful events this year, including a third of 19 behind a smart prospect at York (7f, good; did best of the prominent racers); down in grade today and he should go well. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 17 (6) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in the spring on first two starts for this yard (7f, good) and each-way claims on that form; however, two lesser runs have followed and he's 0-18 since winning in June 2023 on his second outing. |

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. |

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

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. |

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. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Made it 2-2 for new trainer Robert Cowell when comfortably seeing off eight rivals at Wolverhampton (5f) last week; effectively 7lb higher here but it doesn't look enough to stop him in his current mood. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Ex-Ruth Carr; won at Windsor on last week's stable debut (5f, good to firm); could go well despite the penalty but has yet to win in nine attempts on AW. |
5/4 |
|
1st 6 (9) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
1-1 at Windsor, thanks to a 6f handicap in 2024, and also scored at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) last June; overall strike-rate is 2-29 but usually thereabouts and each-way claims on this first start since leaving Ruth Carr. |
