21st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Handicapped to the hilt since winning three fast-ground handicaps during early summer but she continues to run well and again gave it her all last week at Bath (1m, good); solid chance once more, though ground softer than good to soft would spell danger. |

2nd 5 (1) |
13th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Paid the price with the handicapper for three fast-ground wins in early summer but has generally done well since and ran another honest race last time at Ripon (1m, good); hard to knock. |
100/30 |

2nd 7 (7) |
5th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Went up 10lb for three fast-ground wins in early summer and has generally run well off her revised mark since, usually from the front; fair chance she's able to get her own way, in which case she'll be dangerous, with the drying weather in her favour. |

4th Jul 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Came up well short in AW novice events, then had gelding operation; has looked better in turf handicaps (over 1m) the last twice, finishing second at Chepstow (behind a subsequent scorer) then third at Bath; solid claims in this ordinary maiden race. |

2nd Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Half-brother to four winners and he's out of German 7f Listed winner; well held at biggish prices in three AW novice events (7f/1m) during the winter but he's been gelded since and could show a lot more now switched to a handicap on his return; needs a close look. |

6th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Seven-race maiden whose best RPRs have been achieved over 7f, the most recent on penultimate start; has not progressed but the drop back to this trip may help, along with his reduced mark; shortlisted. |
11/2 |

6th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Not built on his early promise and twice comfortably held in handicaps (1m, soft; 1m2f, good); hood fitted the last twice is left off and he drops back in distance, but comes with risks. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won twice over shorter last summer; big prices and little to cheer this year; down in the weights but he has plenty to prove. |
50/1 |
|
11th 15 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Returns to his ideal sphere (turf) but brings a question mark over his current form, having trailed home last in both AW outings this year; possibly out of his depth to boot, having never won above Class 4. |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Last four wins have come in high summer, including two from the front last year for Jack Dace (rides Tiger Crusade), and he remains weighted to his best; didn't offer much on his comeback three weeks ago and an easy 7f is a bare minimum these days. |
