16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
C&D winner in 2024 but three subsequent visits have not gone nearly so well; none too consistent but two of his last four AW runs, including in January latest, give him a shout if he's ready following the absence; he's twice been runner-up after longer layoffs. |

2nd 5 (3) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner as a 2yo and back to form when successful at Kempton (7f; solid form) in October; below that level twice since but better than the result when seventh of 12 over C&D latterly having been caught wide from the outside stall; has fared better with the draw this time and could be dangerous having dipped to only 1lb above the mark he defied at Kempton. |
11/2 |

22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Ran okay in a hot race over C&D last month and duly built on that when winning by a cosy neck 12 days ago (also C&D); major claims off 3lb higher; a positive showing from Waistcoat, who he beat last time, in the 6.40 would increase confidence. |

Placed on his first two runs this year but last two runs not so good; three of his four turf wins have been at Bath, and may be best to wait until he returns to that venue. |

30th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Gelded prior to his latest start and he showed improved form in finishing third of 14 in a 0-75 at Windsor (1m, good; favourite); didn't enjoy the cleanest run through on that occasion and he's open to further progress; one to take seriously. |
11/4 |

3rd 12 (5) |
17th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Fourth of ten in maiden at Newbury (1m, soft) in April looked promising considering how badly he swerved to his left leaving the stalls; although not so marked, that behaviour at the start has been repeated on both outings since and he's made backward steps, the latest in a 6f handicap debut; gelded since; bit too early to forget that Newbury promise. |

12th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

26th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Two good efforts at about 7f in novices in the autumn (both on good), winning one at Beverley, but a weak finisher in two handicaps this year, over 1m2f and 1m; needs to show he's worth his current mark back at 1m2f. |

Big prices and out of the frame in three starts since returning in April, albeit he met trouble when finishing in midfield in the Carlisle Bell (7.7f, soft) last month; 4lb lower than for the latest of two wins in April last year; interesting. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |

Two wins last April (1m, AW/soft) and he's 1lb lower than when last successful; the return to slow turf could also be a plus; however, he's failed to shine on either outing this season and has something to prove. |
25/1 |

11th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

7yo who has an impressive 8-28 strike-rate and is effective on Tapeta; he may have needed his comeback run at Newmarket last month but was beaten a long way at 66-1, and he was also below par last May/July on his final two outings last season; plenty to prove. |

This six-time winner (all AW) showed the benefit of last month's return when making the frame at Wolverhampton 15 days ago (wasn't ideally placed); could be about to strike; Oisin Murphy rides the horse and for the stable for the first time. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Dual C&D winner, latterly off 4lb lower in the spring; switches from a visor to first-time cheekpieces back from a few months off and the new headgear will need to eke out a bit more. |
