18th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won three times last year (all 1m), including when justifying favouritism at Yarmouth on first start for Michael Wigham; mixed fortunes lately and has work to do with Coloane from Pontefract in July, so it's difficult to know what to expect. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Three 1m wins last season and latest was off 7lb higher at Yarmouth; no joy in 2024, but he perked up with an eyecatching third in classified event at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) two weeks ago and has claims if he can build on that. |

19th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Three-time winner last season, including over C&D, who's generally struggled this time; is among the lowest rated and could have done with some rain ideally. |

Conditions no problem and he has run creditably on his last two visits here, the latest last week; shouldn't be too far away. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Showed he can be competitive from his reduced mark when a close fourth over C&D last month and bit better than the result (hampered towards finish) when sixth of 14 at Yarmouth since; on the shortlist. |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Both wins have been over 1m at Newcastle (good second there last time); 0-20 on turf, but fair second at Pontefract in June and a chance on that form. |

26th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Both wins over C&D so has to be considered after his return to form at Pontefract; on a good mark. |
7/2 |
|
11 (12) |
30th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins over 1m on AW, the latest in September; has mostly had stamina limitations over 1m2f, as on this course last time, but he wasn't far away at Beverley (about 1m, good to firm) the time before and his AW form with Wheres The Crumpet in October puts him in the vicinity. |

Four wins last year included one over C&D; made a winning return at Southwell (1m, AW) in March but well beaten back on turf twice since; not quite sure what to expect. |

Four-time winner hasn't scored since winning at Wolverhampton for his former yard in December 2023; failed to beat a rival on debut for this stable at Dundalk in April; can only be watched for now. |

26th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Made a successful stable debut at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) in March 2022, but 0-16 since and recent efforts don't suggest a return to winning form is imminent. |

22nd Nov 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

Sole win came on Tapeta last year; two good thirds this term (Polytrack/turf); weak in the betting and failed to land a blow two runs back from a break recently, with 1m2f against him latest; may do better in reapplied headgear. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
A bit underwhelming at Hamilton a fortnight ago but went there in good form, having won at Musselburgh (1m, good) previously; has won over C&D on soft ground and can be a contender if leaving latest run behind. |
11/2 |

6th 3 (6) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
This is his time of year and, after a close second over C&D (good) last month, he went one better at Musselburgh (1m, good) last Tuesday; fully at home on slow ground and firmly in calculations under a 4lb penalty. |

19th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

C&D winner for William Jarvis last October but he's been generally disappointing since including when beaten 12l on his recent stable debut at Nottingham; now 2lb lower than for his win but he needs a major revival back on Tapeta. |
14/1 |
