11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Two wins at Goodwood last autumn and admirably consistent in defeat this season, going close in a big field over C&D (good) then finishing fifth in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm; second of 20 in group); there is every chance that he will be bang there. |

5th 7 (22) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Completed a Goodwood double during his 2025 campaign; good second in notable handicap at the York Dante festival (1m, good) most recently, going down by only a neck; he's paying the price for his consistency, however, with the assessor failing to relent. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 185y |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner for Charlie Johnston; fair effort on his stable debut in a maiden hurdle here in May; booking of Billy Lee suggests better is expected today. |
7/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for trainer; won twice on the Flat for Charlie Johnston on good ground; rated 83 in that sphere; signed off British career with a tailed off finish at Hamilton in September; makes hurdling/stable debut now in a first-time tongue tie. |

29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Acts on good to soft but both wins (at 1m3f and about 1m) on good; ran up to his best when a close second of seven at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in August but needs to pull out more against in-form rivals. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Seemed to benefit from combination of drop back in trip and change of headgear when clearcut winner at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW; first-time blinkers) nine days ago; 6lb higher here and too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but the return to turf won't be a problem. |
4/1 |

1st 12 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
0-5 on AW and he was never a threat over C&D in March; remote third over 2m at Musselburgh (good) three weeks ago and he now drops back in trip with added blinkers. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 217y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Two wins last season, the latter gained by 10l here (1m6f, soft; also suited by much quicker ground) in October; not in same form on either outing since returned to the Flat in March (1m4f/2m; cheekpieces refitted last time) but still considered. |

2nd Feb 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Turf winner at about 7f; has raced over a range of trips for new connections (1m, 1m4f and 7f) and didn't get much luck in running at Wolverhampton two weeks ago; worth another go at 1m but is quite exposed and unraced here. |

15th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
raced in last, went second but soon lost ground under 2f out, weakening when jockey almost dropped whip final furlong |

1st 2 (5) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Improved for the switch to nurseries when keeping on for fourth at York two weeks ago (7f, good to firm; hung left); that effort suggested he was ready for 1m and he needs serious consideration on AW debut. |
15/8 |
|
4th 18 (17) |
24th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Promising second of 13 on his Redcar debut (6f, good) in June; hasn't built on that over 7f twice since and needs to get back on the up now handicapping. |
