27th Jun 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made a promising start to her career last summer and it's possible her time off may have helped; however, she struggled on her final four runs last year and very much needs to turn things around on this reappearance. |

Seven-race maiden but he finished second over C&D in October (heavy) and that form makes him of interest off his reduced mark; accessories added for his first run in a turf handicap; one to consider. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Enjoyed his finest hour when winning the Palace Of Holyrood House Stakes at the Royal meeting in 2024; gained his first win since when narrowly landing a 5f handicap at Musselburgh in April; two solid efforts have followed and he would appear likely to make another bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
6th 1 (13) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
In-form 5yo; overcame trouble to win at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in April and was a creditable fourth in a big field here (6f, good) ten days ago; should be thereabouts again off an unchanged mark. |
10/1 |
|
4th 9 (3) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Mixed fortunes since winning the 5f 3yo handicap at Royal Ascot in 2024 (good to firm); got back on track to win at Musselburgh (5f, soft) last month despite being denied a clear run; his peak performances have come at 5f but he was a C&D winner in his 2yo season; respected up just 3lb for last time. |

4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
On a long losing run; ran on late for fourth at Redcar 13 days ago but the wait for a first AW success looks set to continue. |
13/2 |
|
4th 4 (10) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Winless since 2024 but he comes here in good nick, not seen to ideal effect when ninth of 12 in 6f Southwell AW handicap last month when racing wide; of some interest off a 3lb lower mark with yard going very well. |
6/1 |
|
9th 6 (12) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Found the drop to 5f against him last time (Tapeta), following a slow start, in a Newcastle handicap in which the leaders didn't come back; become very hit and miss but a case could be made dropped 2lb. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
1lb lower than for his last win; never in the hunt at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) last month on his return from 284 days on the sidelines; stamina for 7f still to be proven. |

4th 4 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Scored at Redcar (6f) last May and signed off for 2025 with a good third of 13 over C&D in October; needs to hit the ground running after nine months off though. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Mixed results in higher grades on turf of late; has a better strike-rate (4-10) on AW and looks interesting returned to this sphere off 1lb below last winning mark. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Never in contention in the Ayr Silver Cup last week; mark not beyond him judged on this year's best but he has few secrets now. |

18th 21 (17) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Has a useful strike-rate on the AW but just 1-18 on turf; suffered some interference over C&D on his latest 6f start in July but he looks to have his share of weight relative to the company he keeps today. |

17th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't need to be at his best when finally off the mark in a weak 5f Musselburgh novice last month and took his handicap record to 0-9 when a respectable fourth at Newcastle (6f) since; may again have to settle for minor honours. |
6/1 |

4th 4 (2) |
1st Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Finally off the mark in a weak 5f novice last time; won't mind the return to 6f or Tapeta (went close over C&D in the spring) but has had plenty of chances off similar ratings. |

Best effort when third of five in a Pontefract novice (5f, good to firm) last August, but well held in both subsequent nurseries; plenty to prove back from eight months off. |

Glimmer of ability before badly hampered in Alice's Impact's race at Beverley in July but he hasn't repeated it and now looks up against it. |

Has finished in rear in all six starts including at big prices three handicaps (6f-1m); his latest run resulted in a 14l defeat at Redcar on Saturday and he can only be watched; tongue-tie removed. |

Four wins for the Barrons include three at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta); 16lb below last winning mark, but five starts since returning for this yard in February leave him with plenty to prove, despite the drop in grade. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Well short of his best since joining this yard, only beating a handful of runners home in his four runs in 2026; tumbling down the weights but not a solid option. |
