9st 9lb |
Progressed into useful handicapper on turf for Charlie Fellowes in 2023, winning three times from the front (1m4f/1m2f) in cheekpieces that summer; well-beaten outsider on all three starts for new yard in 2024, however, and has not been seen since last July; cheekpieces are removed. |

Progressed into useful handicapper on turf for Charlie Fellowes, winning three times from the front (1m4f/1m2f) in cheekpieces in summer 2023; towards the rear on all three starts for new yard last term, in this race on second occasion, so has big questions to answer after 342 days off. |

Progressed into useful handicapper on turf for Charlie Fellowes, winning three times from the front (1m4f/1m2f) in cheekpieces last summer; sold for 150,000gns in October; may have had excuses for both runs since (AW and Royal Ascot) and had wind surgery in between, but others are preferred. |

13th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Ran well in Racing League event at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July, then rallied tenaciously to land the Shergar Cup Classic at Ascot (1m4f) last month; 2-3 at Southwell early this year and commands respect back here; this 3yo colt is open to further improvement. |

Both wins on Southwell's Tapeta but he has achieved better RPRs on turf since, posting another solid effort when third (Like A Tiger fifth) in a Racing League handicap at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to soft) 16 days ago; steps back up in trip now. |

First four runs were on Tapeta this January/February, winning 1m novice and 1m3f handicap; good 4l second to Like A Tiger in handicap at Newmarket (1m2f Rowley Course, good to soft) on turf debut in April; not disgraced in Lingfield Derby Trial (run on AW this year) next time and made a solid return to turf when third of ten on the July Course at Newmarket (good to firm) 27 days ago; each-way claims. |

9yo who was down the field at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last time but was running consistently well prior to that; this C&D winner has an each-way chance if bouncing back. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |

Hearty strike-rate on turf, adding another in a Racing League race at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July; less of a win machine on AW but both wins have come on this track, over C&D and 1m4f in early 2024, and he was involved in a tight finish back on AW at Wolverhampton two starts ago; not far away. |

9st 13lb |
Had the reopposing Regal Empire 4l back in second when a striking winner of a 1m2f Newmarket handicap (good to soft) on his reappearance in April; the tables were turned in a Racing League handicap at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to soft) 16 days ago but he still performed with credit and it's possible today's longer trip can unlock some improvement. |

27th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 2 |

Great Voltigeur entry; the ground was good to soft when the striking winner of a 1m2f Newmarket handicap on his reappearance in April but good when well held in a Listed race back there at the Guineas meeting; not seen since (withdrawn from a few intended engagements due to quick ground) but he's proved he's capable when fresh and ground conditions seem likely to be in his favour; big player. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Multiple winner down the years but 2025 figures suggest age may be catching up with him to some degree; hasn't won a domestic race since 2023 and it's an even longer time since he made a successful seasonal debut. |
14/1 |

19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Strike rate of 11-49 reads well although hasn't won in over a year and this season has been restricted by quick ground; had his favoured soft ground but still good bit below best at Ayr last month so must be doubtful he can run to current mark and ideally wants a bit further. |
8/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
9yo whose form has been mixed across three starts this year; however, they've all been on good ground and his last five wins have come on good to soft and slower ground, the latest a Group 3 at Longchamp (1m2f, soft) last September; could bounce back with a big run if conditions are in his favour. |

No win since May 2021; ran well at Chester in May off a 9lb higher mark but that hasn't been a springboard to better things; this drop into 0-80 company can help but he's far from bombproof. |

Four wins (three on AW at 1m6f and 2m) and was last seen finishing third in the 2024 Cesarewitch; has gone well over this shorter trip but can only be considered if market vibes are positive. |

3rd 13 (22) |
12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Reached new heights during a pretty busy AW campaign prior to his creditable and none-too-lucky sixth in the 2m2f Chester Cup in May when last seen (finished lame); that was on good to firm and easily his best turf form, but he won on soft in 2022; withdrawn twice last month; on the Chester Cup evidence he could still be capable of better. |

4th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Three-time Dundalk winner who left behind a couple of below-par efforts back to Polytrack over C&D last week, when losing out on the nod from a wide stall; another furlong is perhaps optimal but a strongly run race over this trip is fine. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 (11) |
27th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Good record on AW at Dundalk when trained in Ireland; made successful stable debut at Doncaster but below that level since; this would be easier than of late but he's drawn wide and others appeal more. |
