16th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Impressive on his Goodwood debut (6f, good) in May and was sent off just 5-1 for the Windsor Castle on the strength of that, but could manage only a midfield finish and his two starts since have been modest, including on nursery debut at York (6f, good to firm) last time (behind Ganesha); best watched. |

29th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Second at Goodwood (6f, good) on debut then won at Lingfield (6f, AW); down the field at Royal Ascot (6f, good) but he retains potential now back down in grade in his first nursery; respected in first-time blinkers. |
7/2 |

14th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Built on his promising debut second at Goodwood (6f, good) when landing the odds at Lingfield (6f, AW) last month; struggled in the Coventry at Royal Ascot last time but he's back in much calmer waters here and could resume his progress at this new trip; respected with blinkers added on nursery debut. |
5/2 |

20th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
One of three runners for Richard Hannon; favourite on debut and improved on that form when a workmanlike winner of an ordinary race at Lingfield (6f, AW) two weeks ago; may do better still but this is a much sterner task and Kevin Stott has chosen to ride Bucanero Fuerte instead. |

6th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Promising debut when third of 11 at Goodwood (6f, good) in May, but has twice disappointed since as when fifth of eight here (5f, soft) last month; bred to stay on the dam's side, but he needs to bounce back on nursery debut and has a wide draw. |
12/1 |

5th 7 (3) |
15th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hung left when turned over as favourite on fast ground last time; is better judged on his debut effort but whether the drop from 6f will work in his favour (dam placed over 1m6f) remains to be seen. |
6/1 |

5th 5 (2) |
15th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Unable to land a blow behind an impressive winner at Goodwood on his debut three weeks ago (6f, good) but the penny was dropping late on and he appeals as the type to do much better with the run behind him; interesting. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-18, with his solitary second over 7f on soft; ended 2025 with two respectable thirds in October, including over 7f here on good to firm, but first time out has seen two of his best shows, so he needs a second look today. |
9/1 |

30th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
17-race maiden but he's well treated on his best form and was a good third of 14 at Brighton (7f, good to firm) two weeks ago; this is a different test but he's effective on soft ground and has possibilities back in trip; visor reapplied. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
His two wins last August/September (including here) came over 1m2f but he travelled well when fourth over 1m1f here (good to firm) on his recent return to action, when short of room close home, and he may have versatility in terms of trip; interesting contender. |

4th 6 (1) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Winner over 1m2f at Ayr (good; cheekpieces on) and Newcastle (tongue-tie and cheekpieces) last term; some fair AW runs after that but off since January and perhaps best watched this time (no cheekpieces). |
12/1 |
|
7 (2) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won at Ayr in August and he responded well to a tongue-tie when scoring over C&D the following month; still looks feasibly treated but he flopped here (last of nine) and needs to bounce back after that laboured effort. |

20th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Nursery winner over 7f on soft; placed in first two handicaps since sent beyond 1m but only fourth at Chester last month when tried in cheekpieces (retained); will probably come up short on AW debut. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (5) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Nursery winner over 7f on soft; second and third in his two handicaps since sent beyond a mile and the winners of both those races were in form; has the benefit of Jack Doughty's claim and cheekpieces are added; player. |

3rd 5 (7) |
11th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Nursery winner over 7f on soft; first run beyond 1m when bumping into a progressive one (successful since) at Chester (1m2f, good) and he saw that race out well; needs a second look off the same mark. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Three turf wins over 5f but 0-13 and it has been a while since he has shone on this surface; new headgear tried today and the tongue tie worn on his last two starts dispensed with. |

11th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Found traffic a couple of times since winning a selling handicap off 3lb lower in the first-time visor in June (all 5f, Hamilton); shouldn't mind going back up to 6f for a trainer also responsible for Ramon Di Loria. |
14/1 |

17th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Got the better of Kyber Crystal in a selling handicap over C&D last month (visored first time); not so good back here last week (behind Sixcor) and although he didn't get the cleanest run through, he didn't look unlucky; others appeal more. |

Always towards the rear at Goodwood on debut, having perhaps needed the experience and/or found 6f too sharp; pedigree, in the main, suggests he's going to need longer trips. |

24th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Not sure what happened first time out but cheekpieces went on at Newcastle (6f AW) and he got the better of yesterday's Acomb runner-up Ballymount Boy who was making his debut; nothing wrong with that form and his owner targets this meeting. |

£105,000 yearling; 6-1 for last month's Goodwood debut (6f, good) but completely blew the start and never figured; no surprise if he shows a good deal more if breaking better here with cheekpieces enlisted. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner (7f/1m) who disappointed in this race last year when chasing a Brighton hat-trick; bounced back when runner-up at Epsom next time but he 's not been in the same form since, including when fifth at Leicester on Monday; body of work at this venue says he can never be dismissed, however, and first-time blinkers might reignite the fire. |
7/2 |

5th 1 (5) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Disappointing end to last season but he's below last May's last winning mark and he reappeared with an encouraging fourth at Bath (1m, firm) last month; could build on that latest outing and he's not ruled out. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Below his best when last seen but he started last season well, being beaten a neck on his reappearance before winning his next two starts (all at Brighton), and returns from a 176-day break off a mark 2lb below the latest success; may bounce back. |
