3rd 12 (9) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won off 2lb lower at Newcastle last autumn but hasn't repeated the form and slow starts are becoming a habit; needs to get back on track. |
22/1 |
|
13th 10 (13) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Neck second of 15 over C&D (good to firm) last August and his seventh of 12 at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last month can be upgraded as he was slowly away in a race which favoured those ridden more prominently; he's one to consider back up in trip. |
20/1 |

7th 6 (4) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won three of his first four starts for Ollie Sangster between July 2023 and April 2024, but has only been successful in one of his last 17 starts and that was on the AW; needs to step up from his Doncaster return (1m2f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. |

6th 10 (8) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Course winner (1m2f) when trained by Archie Watson; struggled for this yard in 2025 and the addition of a tongue tie and return of cheekpieces aren't enough to tempt. |
50/1 |
|
9th 6 (9) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has dropped down the weights and his trainer is among the winners; however, he's struggled in the main this season and has been beaten 16 times since his sole win in March 2024. |
16/1 |
|
9 (3) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win came for previous trainer Archie Watson over 1m2f at Newcastle (11-8 favourite) in March 2024; 0-11 for this trainer and continues to slide in the weights; has plenty of work to do with Monhammer and Ahamoment on recent C&D evidence. |

2nd 7 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Four wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from ten runs over C&D and bounced back to form 18 days ago (7f, Polytrack) on his first start since undergoing a second round of wind surgery; on a very attractive mark if building on that. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 8 (9) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
All five wins have been on AW at Newcastle; has been below his best of late and has had his second bout of wind surgery since his last run; hard to fancy. |

11st 0lb |
in touch with leaders, weakened before 2 out |
25/1 |
|
6th 14 (3) |
14th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
No improvement for the step up to 1m3f and 1m5f on last two starts and this extra distance asks some serious questions. |
25/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
31st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-5 and unable to threaten for his two previous yard, and soundly beaten sixth of seven on this month's stable debut at Yarmouth (11.4f); first-time cheekpieces need to prompt a much bigger performance. |
16/1 |
