in touch with leaders, cajoled along 4f out, pushed along 3f out, hung left but headway on near side of group 2f out, ridden over 1f out, led inside final furlong, soon edged left, went clear final 110yds, comfortably |

25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Creditable third at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) on handicap debut, before making all at Chester (1m2f, good to soft) and asserting final 1f at Glorious Goodwood (1m3f, good to soft); 1m4f looks manageable and 7lb rise may be too, given he was comfortably on top for both wins; steadily progressive. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
He hasn't won since August 2024 but ran some fine races last season, including when beaten a neck by Spirit Mixer in this event; 4lb higher today and made a muted reappearance at Epsom three weeks ago but that was at 40-1 over 1m4f on soft; should be more interesting again with that under his belt. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 4lb
|
Third reserve; soft ground wouldn't have helped when well behind Too Soon at Epsom ten days ago on seasonal debut; had some solid form in strong 1m6f/2m handicaps last season but current mark is a tough one. |
33/1 |
|
9th 6 (4) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
He hasn't won since August 2024 but ran some fine races in defeat last season, including when second of 14 at Glorious Goodwood (1m6f, good to soft) in August; those efforts have ensured his mark is holding up, however, and he makes his comeback over a trip probably short of his best these days. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Better than ever with 1m2f wins at Newbury and Epsom (made all) on good ground in April but a further 5lb rise proved enough to stop him at York last time; might be vulnerable again. |
9/1 |
|
9th 3 (5) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Very close to his best when beating 13 others to land Newbury handicap in April and he made all at Epsom (also 1m2f, good) ten days later; may have been fortunate to beat a subsequently impressive winner on the latter occasion, however, and this career-high mark demands a fair bit more. |
6/1 |

1st 5 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Beat 13 rivals to win at Newbury (1m2f, good) ten days ago on his second start back from some time off; back up 4lb but he's just 1lb higher than when second in this last year and he's a solid contender. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Fourth in this race last year off the same mark; fine efforts when runner-up in February on first two starts (2m, AW) since rejoining this yard, but reportedly made a respiratory noise next time and, following his third wind operation, he was a soundly beaten outsider in Listed race four weeks ago; others seem more solid. |
40/1 |
|
5th 5 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Fine efforts when runner-up in 2m AW handicaps in February on first two starts since rejoining this yard; reportedly made a respiratory noise at Musselburgh in April and he's had a third wind operation since; however, even if returning to form, a career-best if needed from this 6yo today. |
25/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
A poor show last May prompted a second wind operation and it was a solid campaign otherwise; never better than when second this February in 2m AW handicaps at Wolverhampton and Lingfield, but peak turf form isn't far behind it and he'll probably be on the premises. |

13th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Good efforts in just two 1m2f handicaps for this stable, doing well against a progressive one at Newmarket (good; has won on soft) then things didn't go his way after another slow start at Doncaster in August; the return to a stiff finish can suit; has every chance. |
9/1 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
17th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won novice races at Lingfield (1m, AW) and Nottingham (1m2f, soft) for James Fanshawe; yet to win a handicap but ran well when second at Newmarket (1m2f, good; cheekpieces on for first time) two runs back to one who was completing a hat-trick; headgear retained; chance on that form. |
6/1 |
|
4th 3 (5) |
3rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Inconsistent but returned to form in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when runner-up at Newmarket (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; has run well over an extended 1m4f in the past and he's one to consider; tongue-tie added. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-15 over hurdles, with a very mixed record; ran quite well when third here (2m4f, good) last month but was well held in the end; not bred for fences and makes only limited appeal on this chasing debut. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

His two best RPRs were recorded here last summer, albeit over 2m (good); two below-par efforts since April's serviceable third in a novice seller at Exeter and he has work on from 3lb out of the handicap. |

Improved 3yo, winning 1m2f Nottingham maiden on return and best form when leading home his group at Salisbury in June (1m4f), winner was a class-dropper who raced alone; however, he dropped right out at Goodwood after and needs to redeem himself with tongue-tie added on AW debut. |

Made all in five-runner maiden at Nottingham (1m2f, soft) in April on reappearance, by a nose as 5-4 favourite; creditable third of six on handicap debut at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago and the impressive winner followed up at Royal Ascot; now worth a go at 1m4f. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Rated 7lb lower than on the AW, but is hard to warm to on his latest efforts; needs the first-time blinkers to make a difference. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

May have needed the run at Kempton 12 days ago but he ended up well beaten; he has a lower turf mark to exploit but is a better horse on AW; others look safer. |
16/1 |
|
10th 5 (1) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has claims on his best form last year but he ended last season with a poor run at Leicester (7f, good) in October and his last win was 21 months ago; others preferred. |
