21st Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 37y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned after wind surgery with close thirds at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) and Windsor (11.4f, good) but he didn't find much when disappointing at Kempton last time; bit to prove again after that and he's had only one win in his last 17 starts. |

9st 4lb |
Only recently returned from wind surgery and under positive rides has finished close up at Lingfield (1m4f AW) and Windsor (1m3.5f); had no excuses either time but he's unlikely to be far away. |

First run after wind surgery when unable to exploit a soft lead on the AW recently (1m4f); however, six of his seven wins have been on turf and he likes it around here; dangerously handicapped. |

12th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Promising 3yo; had to give best to a useful revived one on return from a long layoff at Windsor in June (extended 1m3f, good), when suffering some interference and intimidation, but she should have more to come in just her second handicap and the return to 1m2f can suit, too; live chance. |

Smart pedigree and she has improved with each of her three runs, last seen finishing second of three in a good Doncaster novice 353 days ago; interesting she's being persevered with and could well have more to give now handicapping. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Bath (1m2f, firm), beating Galaxy Wonder by half a length on the latest occasion; up another 2lb, but still a big player in his current mood. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Most wins on the AW but it was his third success on the grass when coming home 2.5l to the good over C&D two weeks ago; defying the 5lb rise shouldn't be beyond him. |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf but he's in form, creditable third at Lingfield on Good Friday last time; gained last win off 5lb higher (in July 2024); shortlisted. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins have been on the AW, the latest over 9.5f here in March last year; placed in a seller (9.5f) and a handicap (1m4f) here in April; poor run back on turf after a break last time; blinkers replace visor. |

7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
On lengthy losing run but he's been placed at Wolverhampton (9.4f/1m4f) in last two starts and three of his five wins have come over C&D; has each-way claims again back at this track. |

21st Apr 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Handy sort; has done most of his winning at Chelmsford, but he does act here (244232172); hasn't had many goes over this far, but finished second of 11 in his only previous attempt over C&D; interesting back up in trip at this level. |

22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Had plenty of racing on the Flat and won twice over 1m2f on soft ground; will need to run better than on his hurdling debut at Taunton (2m, good; 40-1). |

29th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Suited by 1m2f on soft or heavy but he didn't seem his old self in 2024 and was well adrift on a recent hurdle debut; has been given a chance at the weights, so a change in his fortunes can't be discounted. |

Dry since a C&D win off 12lb higher early last year and will need to put a couple of below-par efforts behind him; the return to Polytrack will help, though, and he can never be ruled out round here. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Consistent dual purpose mare who was probably not ideally suited by the good to soft ground when respectable fourth at Stratford (2m) last month; on a good mark now and can go well if the rain stays away; usual tongue-tie removed. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Very respectable 12-76 record for one who plies his trade in this sort of grade; vast majority of those wins came on AW but he can do it on turf and latest third over C&D (good to firm), while beaten a fair way, wasn't a bad effort; has dropped back down to his career-low mark. |
12/1 |

3rd 9 (8) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-time AW scorer but sole turf win was three years ago; some creditable efforts on Polytrack for new yard this year but he's been out of sorts at Wolverhampton in last two runs; has some questions to answer and he looks opposable back on turf. |
20/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

12-74; sits below last winning mark and filled the runner-up berth at Lingfield (1m2f) on penultimate start; less productive in a change of headgear (visor) over 8.5f here latest; trainer also saddles Three on Thursday. |
