Won for Ralph Beckett on debut last August but struggled on both Flat starts this spring and he hasn't threatened over hurdles the last twice; may be best watched now back in this code. |

20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
2yo win was 1m2f on soft; no improvement this season and although his sixth of 13 in the London Gold Cup at Newbury (1m2f, good; unraced on firmer) last time was creditable, others seem to shout out more loudly for 1m4f. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Progressive handicapper last season who ended up in the St Leger, perhaps a little flattered by that bare result as the form has not been repeated; third in the 2m5f Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot on penultimate outing was clearly his most competitive show this season and gives hope, but he flopped at Newbury on latest. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 110y Class 2 |

Progressive handicapper last season and ended up in the St Leger; perhaps a little flattered by that bare result, as the form has not been repeated, but third in the 2m5f Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot on latest outing was clearly his most competitive show this season and gives hope; more to prove on softer than good but overall he looks of renewed interest. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 2m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Regularly hooded and goes on all ground; progressive 1m4f/1m6f handicapper last season and ended up in the St Leger (wasn't disgraced, beaten 7l); hasn't really got anything going this year since gelded, last time finishing last of four runners in an Italian Listed race (1m4f); every chance on the figures if rediscovering his mojo and seeing out the trip, but there are doubts on both counts. |

31st Aug 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Promising second of ten at Newmarket on last month's debut (7f, good to soft; winner useful); beaten at odds-on at Sandown four weeks ago but he may have found the heavy ground too demanding; big chance if reproducing his debut effort. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Three-time winner over hurdles and nothing wrong with his most recent efforts in handicaps at top tracks; every chance provided he's straight enough after a lengthy break. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Fair Flat racer who was 3-6 during first season over hurdles, the last two wins gained from the front in handicaps (2m/2m1f); well beaten when upped in grade at Cheltenham in April and absent since but may still have more to offer. |

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. |

11th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Comeback win (first-time cheekpieces having been gelded) came off a mark just 2lb lower over this trip; things didn't pan out his way at Chester last time and it wouldn't be a surprise were he to bounce back. |

10th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Showed ability last autumn and, having been gelded, he just got up to make a winning seasonal/handicap debut at Newbury (7f, good to soft; first time cheekpieces) three weeks ago; up 3lb, but gave the impression 1m would suit and is much respected for stable that has won two of the last six runnings. |

31st Mar 2025 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Juvenile hurdler who failed to build on his Southwell effort when comfortably held at Kelso; just ordinary on the Flat and lacks potential; may find better opportunities in handicaps soon. |
15/2 |
|
5th 1 |
1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Fair on Flat at up to 1m6f for Jack Channon, winning three times, and he shaped nicely when a close second of nine at Southwell (2m, good to soft) on hurdling debut, making the odd mistake but keeping on; should go well. |

11th Oct 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
held up in rear, headway from 5f out, waiting for room from over 3f out, in the clear under 2f out, went second over 1f out, soon led and went clear, comfortably |

5th 14 (3) |
24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
On the premises this season in his two handicaps at Newmarket (1m2f, good) and one at Glorious Goodwood (1m3f, good to firm); half-brother to smart Sumo Sam, who flourished over 1m6f last season, and there are notable stayers in the family, which boosts his interest substantially. |
20/1 |
|
5th 7 (4) |
2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; much better since upped to 1m2f, including when second and fourth in handicaps at Newmarket in his two runs this season; gelded in between; place claims. |
