12th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
He hasn't lived up to his market billing in two runs nine months apart, beaten a long way when a warm favourite for his Southwell return five weeks ago; up in trip and tried in cheekpieces; interesting to see if his backers return. |

8th May 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Among the favourites for his debut last summer, when the rapidly softening ground may not have been ideal; is almost certainly capable of better. |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner who mostly ran well last season and did so again when second at Pontefract (1m2f) on reappearance this April; each-way chance if he can avoid trouble from an inside stall. |
25/1 |
|
2nd 2 (9) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Soundly beaten on final run last term but on heavy ground, and it was a campaign in which he frequently ran really well, going close off this mark at York (1m2f, good) in October; won on his reappearance in 2024; respected. |
11/2 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Won at Ayr (1m5f, good) in June and has run really well in defeat over 1m4f (good to firm) on his last two starts, most recently beaten a neck here; this progressive 5yo could give another good account although the drop back in trip may well prove to be a negative. |

A fair maiden at up to 1m4f for William Haggas in 2023 but off for 17 months before being pulled up on yard/hurdling debut at Southwell last month; he has a bit to prove now. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Career highlights (1m4f/1m6f) for Roger Varian were in 2024 and he managed only mid-division in his three handicaps (at top meetings) last July-September; rather worse in both runs (his first races on AW) for new connections early this year but he returns to turf 8lb below his career-high mark. |
28/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
On same mark as for his win at York (1m4f, good) in August 2024 but he's not seen much action since and has been well held in last four starts; may have needed the run on his stable/AW debut at Kempton (28-1) last month but others are more persuasive. |
14/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Campaigned on turf for Roger Varian, often in notable handicaps (won one at York in 2024); failed to reproduce his peak figures in a light 2025 campaign and sold for 60,000gns since last run; the betting may prove best guide on AW/stable debut. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Five Flat wins in 2024, culminating in this race (1lb lower today); well suited by ploughing through the mud and best result this term came on soft, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; ran respectably here on good to soft last time and a bold show seems likely if he's in the mud today. |
7/1 |

11 (10) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; respectable fourth in a Racing League event over 2m on Southwell's AW latest; feasibly handicapped and would enter the reckoning if the ground remains on the soft side. |
16/1 |

4th 2 (8) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024 on Flat; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up on penultimate start; beaten 20l when last on his sole AW start in 2023 and others have more compelling claims. |

Won on the Flat for Hughie Morrison in 2024 but was soundly beaten at triple-digit odds in three novice hurdles for Sheila Lewis in 2024-25 season; makes stable/handicap hurdle debut after 462-day absence; could be considered only if lively in the betting. |
