9th Nov 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Below par on AW last week; far more productive on turf (10-39) and confirmed he's versatile ground-wise with wins on good/heavy this autumn; still favourably handicapped on peak form, achieved in 2023. |

Revived by a return to 7f, winning at Beverley last month before following up at Leicester 16 days ago (7f, heavy); 4lb higher today but dangerous to discount in his current form. |

5th Nov 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Sole AW run on Polytrack debut in 2022; five 6f turf wins since but things have gone haywire since a good run at Ripon in August so has lots to prove on Tapeta debut. |

21st Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |

Continues to drop down the weights and he showed some spark at Ripon in August; however, he's been well beaten on his three starts since and needs a major turnaround. |

2nd Nov 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Finally capitalised on his drop down the weights when rallying to win a 6f handicap at Nottingham (soft) nine days ago; 2lb rise manageable; ran poorly at this fixture last year (7f, heavy) on only other Newmarket start. |

24th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Yet to win this year but he's dropped 13lb down the weights as a result; the odd promising effort along the way but last time wasn't one of them (reported to have an irregular heartbeat after the race); handles soft and probably heavy; not out of it. |

25th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Four course wins to his name and he rolled back the years when sweeping through to win a Class 5 handicap at Thirsk five weeks ago (6f, soft); not handicapped out of things up 6lb but this is a deeper race and it might not set up quite so favourably for him. |

19th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Trip and ground will suit and although he's forged a reputation as a Ripon specialist, he is effective elsewhere; only fourth of five in this event 12 months ago and he's 2lb higher today; latest Ripon third was a solid effort though and he's likely to give a good account. |
4/1 |

3rd 12 (5) |
28th Sep 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Six-time C&D winner on good ground or worse, most recently a narrow defeat of a respected opponent last month; ran okay in the Great St Wilfrid consolation race six weeks ago but not sure he's the answer this time. |

13th May 2024 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
5yo who improved his turf record to 3-9 when justifying support at Leicester (6f, soft) last month; up 3lb for that narrow win but he beat a clear second and this return to forecast quicker ground is no problem; respected for in-form yard. |

Went close on Tapeta last month and also ran well when fourth of 12 on turf return at Windsor (good) 12 days ago; not yet tested on soft ground but is fine on good to soft; can give another good account. |

20th May 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
His last three wins have come over this trip at Ripon; well handicapped on last season's best but he underperformed at Ripon, albeit over 5f, when last seen three weeks ago; down in class today and one to consider; can blow it at the start. |

His form tailed off towards end of last year but he may have benefited from a break and is well handicapped judged on his form last July-September, when he made an excellent start for his new yard; watch the betting. |
