Four-time Flat winner at up to 1m4f but not for nearly three years; tried over various trips of late without success; handicapper giving him every chance but others preferred. |

10st 2lb |
All three wins on good to soft, the latest in October 2023; third off 5lb higher at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in March but disappointing since. |

26th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

Has become well handicapped, but is usually seen over further and the drop in trip didn't inspire him at Carlisle (7.7f, soft) last month; others preferred. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who was well beaten in the John Smith's Cup at York last month but won two in a row here (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and continued in good form until his blip last time; not ruled out now back here. |
12/1 |

9 (12) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and creditable fifth in the Northumberland Plate a fortnight ago (2m, AW); he's a 9yo who has never won off a mark this high but is versatile in terms of trip and ran well over C&D last month; not ruled out each-way. |
22/1 |

5th 7 (2) |
28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Third and sixth in last two runnings of the C&D Vase on this card; in the groove with successive wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f) this May; however, he's been held off this mark when back up to Class 2 in his three starts since, still in form but suggesting that others will have the edge today. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins (three on AW at 1m6f and 2m) and was last seen finishing third in the 2024 Cesarewitch; has gone well over this shorter trip but can only be considered if market vibes are positive. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 13 (22) |
12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Reached new heights during a pretty busy AW campaign prior to his creditable and none-too-lucky sixth in the 2m2f Chester Cup in May when last seen (finished lame); that was on good to firm and easily his best turf form, but he won on soft in 2022; withdrawn twice last month; on the Chester Cup evidence he could still be capable of better. |

16th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Won three for the Johnstons in Britain, two on quick turf at 1m2f-1m4f; best run for this yard here over 1m7f (good) for this rider last July; poor since and never in contention on seasonal reappearance at Cork (1m, good); this trip more suitable and 3lb below last win but others look more likely. |

6th May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Won three races at up to 1m4f in Britain for the Johnstons; one of four runs for this yard was encouraging and there have been excuses the last twice on account of the draw and ground; off since August but not without hope. |

25th Jun 2023 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Successful in Bahrain in January on his first run for Richard Fahey (1m2f, good to soft); more moderate runs than good have followed and hopes appear to rest on the drop back in trip sparking a revival. |

12th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |

1m2f winner at Bahrain in January on debut for this yard; inconsistent since, down the field at Chester (behind Zealandia) most recently; not solid on 2023 form. |

Won a Flat race in 2023 but is 0-21 over hurdles; tailed off on last two starts, admittedly in a maiden last time after four months off but he does not look a solid option; tongue tied first time. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Veteran who showed a fire still burned when winning a six-runner handicap at Lingfield (1m2f, good to soft) in June; third to Beach Point over C&D next time but his form has dipped on his last two starts; rain will help but vulnerable to less-exposed sorts. |
