28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Progressed into useful handicapper on turf for Charlie Fellowes in 2023, winning three times from the front (1m4f/1m2f) in cheekpieces that summer; well-beaten outsider on all three starts for new yard in 2024, however, and has not been seen since last July; cheekpieces are removed. |

9st 2lb |
Progressed into useful handicapper on turf for Charlie Fellowes, winning three times from the front (1m4f/1m2f) in cheekpieces in summer 2023; towards the rear on all three starts for new yard last term, in this race on second occasion, so has big questions to answer after 342 days off. |

Progressed into useful handicapper on turf for Charlie Fellowes, winning three times from the front (1m4f/1m2f) in cheekpieces last summer; sold for 150,000gns in October; may have had excuses for both runs since (AW and Royal Ascot) and had wind surgery in between, but others are preferred. |

25th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Really smart handicapper who won the valuable 1m6f event at the July meeting here in 2021 and 2023; even better form when third of 22 to Absurde in the 2023 Ebor at York (1m6f, good to firm); not seen since finishing a respectable fifth in German Group 1 in September of that year but has gone well after a long absence before; a threat to all if retaining his old ability. |

26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
609 days off before this season but placed efforts (1m4f on good to firm) at Haydock and Royal Ascot were up with his previous form; his last five starts in 2021 were over 1m6f-2m2f and he took his form to a new level when returned to 1m6f at Newmarket (good) six weeks ago, winning in tidy style; up 5lb and this race is much more competitive but he needs respect. |

14th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
609 days off before this season but he's run very well to be placed at Haydock and Royal Ascot 13 days later, both at 1m4f on good to firm; cheekpieces returned in the latter; made most that day and his last five starts in 2021 were over 1m6f-2m2f, including a win in this race; has a 10lb higher mark two years on but looks set to run well. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Last five outings on AW, posting his most encouraging effort when second of 12 in a 2m Newcastle Good Friday handicap; nudged back up 2lb for that but he's still 3lb lower than when runner-up at Chester (2m, good to soft) last September; should go well. |

Won this in 2024 and he's dropping down the weights; this 8yo has shown the odd sign of spark over the last 12 months but his AW exploits this winter indicate it's best to look elsewhere. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Won the 2024 Northumberland Plate (2m, AW) and also a Group 3 handicap in Australia (1m4f, good) last October; usually held up and he came from the back when seventh of 20 in this race last year; whether he's well enough handicapped to win this time round remains to be seen but he's shown enough in his two British starts this summer to demand each-way respect. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won last season's Northumberland Plate (2m, AW) and also a Group 3 handicap in Australia (1m4f, good) last October; some fair efforts in Meydan earlier this year, and also in the Northumberland Plate a fortnight ago following a break, but he needs to raise his game to take this. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Usually runs well at Newcastle, where he won this race last year in good style; took a big prize in Australia last October and struck up a solid sequence over the winter; absent 119 days and 12lb higher than 12 months ago, which surely demands a career best, but needs respect. |

10st 1lb |
No win since May 2021; ran well at Chester in May off a 9lb higher mark but that hasn't been a springboard to better things; this drop into 0-80 company can help but he's far from bombproof. |

Disappointing sort who ended up 12l behind King's Scholar here last time, following wind surgery; now has a tongue-tie (tried on final start last term) and first-time blinkers. |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |

0-7 last year and has weakened quickly on both runs this term; however, a wind operation may have done the trick and his good course form and a dangerous mark suggest he's worth a second look. |

Long layoff before he stuck on from last into a respectable sixth in nine-runner handicap at Goodwood (2m, soft; 7lb lower today) this June; seemingly found 14.5f too short at Doncaster next time (not disgraced) but his 2m run at Ascot 12 days ago was pretty disappointing. |

Long in the tooth and on the downgrade now but still retains a good chunk of ability, as evidenced by his fourth of 20 in Royal Ascot marathon (2m4f, good to firm) in June; moves back up in trip after respectable fourth in deeper race than this here (12.5f) last month; must be considered. |

Winless in well over two years and takes a drop in trip on his belated AW debut, having run a couple of times over 2m4f in the summer; this is less competitive off a career-low mark and he has claims if stamina comes into the equation. |
