28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Only 2lb higher than for his front-running win at Chelmsford in July but he hasn't matched it in three runs since, including back at Chelmsford 17 days ago; others appeal more. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Returned to winning form when making all over C&D in July; twice held on turf in the meantime, but one for the shortlist if the return here galvanises him. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran (13-102); has won just once since late 2024, when edging out Pallas Lord over C&D (15-2) on New Year's Day; kept on after a slow start, fifth of seven, at Ayr (7f; 33-1) four weeks ago. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Getting on for three years since his last turf success and this veteran hasn't been at his best at Newcastle of late; opposable back at 7f and returned to the grass. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won on AW in December (6f) and March (5f) but ran poorly at Wolverhampton four weeks ago; 0-13 on turf and others have more compelling profiles. |
20/1 |

6th 4 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Made it 2-2 over C&D when scraping home last month; up 2lb, but that latest run came after 79 days off so he could be a bit sharper for it; high on list. |
4/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner last February; back to winning ways with a front-running 6f win at Lingfield in December; not quite so good twice since and he needs the 11-week break to have freshened him up. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
1m win here (heavy) last October came off a 6lb lower mark; solid efforts for new trainer here on his last two runs (extended 1m3f) but he could help set this up for a finisher. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Often goes well here, as again was the case when an 80-1 runner-up last week (good); likely to be ridden handy as usual. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 7 (4) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Often goes well here but not in his last two races (1m/1m2f) and he's 2-41 overall. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y |
9st 13lb |
Four-time winner hasn't scored since winning at Wolverhampton for his former yard in December 2023; failed to beat a rival on debut for this stable at Dundalk in April; can only be watched for now. |
20/1 |

Four wins in the UK with three on AW but well beaten both Irish starts at this track and not easy to fancy; new yard. |

17th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
pulled extremely hard, prominent, raced wide over 8f out, pulled way into lead over 6f out |
7/1 |
|
8th 6 (2) |
10th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sole success in 14 starts came off 9lb higher at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in August last year; hasn't shown much in five starts since returning from eight months off in June and another 3lb drop not enough to tempt; can take a keen hold. |
12/1 |

9th 5 (6) |
24th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Hindered by often failing to settle but is well handicapped granted a return to best; sole success came off 6lb higher. |
