26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Norfolk withdrawal at Royal Ascot (got upset in stalls) is flanked by promising performances over 6f on good ground at Newbury, winning readily the second time; about 4l behind Purosangue in the Molecomb at Goodwood over 5f but the soft going seemed to tax him; could well get much closer in this rematch. |

2nd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Turned over in a messy race when 5-4 for his Newbury debut and was then withdrawn from the 5f Norfolk at Royal Ascot after getting upset in the stalls; confirmed himself a smart prospect when making no mistake from the front back at Newbury (6f, good); easy to knock that form but he's held in high regard and the stable seeks a hat-trick in this (last year's winner won a maiden the time before); looks quick enough for 5f. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Longstanding maiden who didn't appear to get home when fourth in a classified at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) in August back in cheekpieces (retained); on a career-low mark and Hector Crouch booked (1-2 for the stable this year) but has become disappointing. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Useful effort in defeat at Beverley (about 7f) last May and confirmed that stiff tracks suit when winning here (7f, good to firm; sole course start) in August; improved again when successful at Ayr later and no surprise if he comes on plenty from first two runs in 2026. |
16/1 |

10th 12 (7) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
All four wins over 7f, once on this track; probably stays further and is worth another go over 1m but he was last to finish on his comeback here over 7f in April and likely other days. |
25/1 |
|
13th 6 (9) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner; two wins in the second half of 2025 and he ended that campaign with a good second of 15 at Leicester in October; runs off the same mark but he could only manage a midfield finish in this race on his reappearance 12 months ago. |

29th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Campaigned mostly on AW, reaching a fairly useful standard; posted good efforts in November/January but form dipped last month; something to prove off current mark in this warm event back on turf. |
33/1 |
|
9th 9 (9) |
28th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
C&D win last April; runner-up in handicaps at around this trip at Southwell and Wolverhampton this winter but his form dipped back at Wolverhampton four weeks ago (9.5f); cheekpieces now added. |
12/1 |
|
7th 6 (1) |
1st Feb 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Hasn't finished out of the first three in five AW starts, on the latest collared only in the final strides by the reopposing Smart Hero over 8.6f here; this low-mileage 4yo is likely to give another good account. |

5th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up on nursery debut at Newbury (7f, good) in August and filled the same spot at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last time behind one who has followed up off 4lb higher; runs off the same mark as last time and he's a major player on his AW debut. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 3 (5) |
15th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Down the field in his first three starts (6f) but took a step forward when second of 12 in a 7f nursery at Newbury 17 days ago; that effort offered hope of better and a 3lb rise looks fair enough; this will be the quickest ground he's tackled but he's a strong contender. |

14th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gelded in September and markedly better in his two starts since, finishing close third on nursery debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack; took strong hold) and narrow winner of a maiden at Wolverhampton (7f, AW); one to consider seriously. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |

13-race maiden who posted one of his better efforts when midfield at Kempton (6f, AW) 76 days ago; steps up in trip on his first start since. |

17th Feb 2026 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Unplaced in all 11 starts but he ran a more encouraging race when fifth of seven in a classified event at Chelmsford last month; still looks vulnerable back in handicap company. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Turf winner who was in good nick on AW during the winter and he scraped home to secure Lingfield classified (1m2f) in January; another solid effort when runner-up in similar event last time and he's respected back on grass after two-month break. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 10 (12) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Goes well round here (AW and turf), including when just holding off Iftikhaar in a weak affair over C&D in January; continued in form since and is more likely than most at this level to give his running; each-way shout. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1m2f win here last month has been followed by good efforts back here and at Chelmsford (behind Man Is King); returning to a mile unlikely to be a problem and he's one to consider. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Four wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from ten runs over C&D and bounced back to form 18 days ago (7f, Polytrack) on his first start since undergoing a second round of wind surgery; on a very attractive mark if building on that. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 8 (9) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
All five wins have been on AW at Newcastle; has been below his best of late and has had his second bout of wind surgery since his last run; hard to fancy. |
