Losing run up to 15 and has regressed for this yard in the past year or so; makes his Polytrack debut tonight and is hard to fancy on recent efforts. |

Won over 7.5f at Beverley in June 2023 on good to firm when with Tim Easterby; bit disappointing for new yard this term, but fair run last time and on a good mark now; a possible. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
0-12 since winning off 2lb higher at Carlisle (7.7f, soft) in June last year, but has gone close a couple of times in that period as when beaten a head and a neck into third of 14 at Newcastle (1m, AW) last month (winner has gone in again twice since); goes very well on soft ground and has won twice here (7f/8.5f); a player. |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

On a losing sequence and he was a below-par fifth of nine in 1m Nottingham handicap last month; others are preferred. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Promising fifth in the Spring Mile on his return and then found only a stablemate too strong at Ripon in April (both 1m, good to soft); not so good at Pontefract last time when faced with good ground; the more rain to fall the better for him. |

8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 2 |

Progressive last year, with two wins, and not disgraced in good handicaps at Royal Ascot and York the last twice, but needs to raise his game. |

20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
All five wins at 7f, on AW and turf, but he couldn't raise his game when well held off just 1lb higher in a similar C&D handicap (good) in October and this again looks a step too far. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned only over 7f-1m; justified favouritism at Newcastle (AW) on seasonal debut, registering a first win since joining current yard; back up 5lb but remains well treated on peak form and he's 2-3 at Pontefract; should remain competitive, provided he stays the new trip. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form this spring, winning at Thirsk (1m, good) and over C&D (good to firm) last month; front pair were 6l clear that day and if he can maintain that level of form he'd still look well treated despite a 5lb rise. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Has registered most wins on AW but ran creditably last Saturday when bidding for a Thirsk (1m) double; this 8yo remains in form and is still well treated on historical data. |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won two in a row at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) in August but he's been well held in last two runs including when last of five at Newmarket (1m, soft) last week; has quite a bit to prove again and others are preferred. |
9/1 |

5th 6 (12) |
27th Sep 2024 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent turf form this year includes two wins at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) in August; better than bare result (hampered) last time; however, faces a stiffer assignment back up in grade. |
14/1 |

8th 1 (8) |
31st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |

Two Pontefract wins this month and he turned in another solid effort when third at Redcar last week; effective over C&D and should make another bold bid. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Just one win to his name since June 2023 and he failed to justify favouritism in a similar event at Catterick (1m4f, good) last time, with the reopposing Star Start a place ahead of him second; however, his record in recent years suggests that going softer than good is ideal for him nowadays and this is the first time he's faced such conditions since a respectable reappearance off a much higher mark in the spring; considered. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Just one win to his name since June 2023 and he has found it tough going so far in 2026; he has slipped a long way in the weights though and today's drop in class will help; not discounted. |
9/2 |
|
5th 7 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won once each in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 but has not scored since and this season he's not at all been the force of old; wore cheekpieces on last two outings, with a respectable show on first occasion; the last of his three AW races was in 2024; unpersuasive. |

27th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
