20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
All three 2yo starts were on softer than good, winner of novice contests at Ffos Las (7.3f) and Nottingham (8.3f); completed his hat-trick in six-runner handicap at Kempton (1m3f, AW) ten weeks ago, never in doubt at 8-11 after he quickened on 2f out; up 7lb and on probably different ground but he's been winning in some style and has more to give. |

9st 11lb |
Winner of novice contests at Ffos Las (7.3f) and Nottingham (under penalty in quite valuable race over 8.3f) at two; gelded since; doesn't look short of speed but should stay this far; the one to beat. |

24th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Came good at seventh attempt, with cleacut success at Wetherby (7f, good) last month, and didn't really have race run to suit when keeping-on third behind all-the-way winner at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) three weeks ago; remains very much of interest. |

3rd Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Justified favouritism at Wetherby (good) three weeks ago, proving suited by the drop back to 7f and opening his account at the seventh attempt; back up 4lb but remains unexposed at this trip; shortlisted. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Talented 5yo, but has endured some lengthy absences in his career and was returning from another 280 days off when seventh of 24 in the Spring Cup here (1m, good) last month; return to this trip is not a problem and he's interesting down in grade. |
9/2 |

7th 12 (2) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) in June 2024; seen only three times last season and wasn't at his best, although each run came in a highly competitive race; may need a positive ride to get away with this shorter trip on his reappearance, but the handicapper has given him a chance and he's certainly not ruled out. |
16/1 |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Missed the rest of 2024 after winning the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) last June; returned to form on second start back when sixth in the Duke Of Edinburgh Handicap at last month's Royal meeting, shaping as though he would benefit from the drop back in trip; chance. |

1st Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Fair on the Flat for Ed Walker last year; made inauspicious start to hurdling career in the autumn (failed to complete consecutive races) but his run at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) in February was more encouraging and further progress is possible in handicaps. |

0-8 on Flat, with plenty of fair form (best effort at 1m2f); however, she refused at the third flight on stable/hurdle debut in November and was pulled up before two out when 66-1 at Newbury one month later. |

Wheels have come off since last summer's Ffos Las near-miss (7f, good to soft), including on all four starts for current handler; drop to another career-low mark isn't sufficiently enticing. |

28th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Ex-Archie Watson; 11-race maiden and hasn't run well enough this season to suggest he can take this. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Had a close call at Ffos Las (extended 7f, good to soft) in June 2024 but much less to show for subsequent handicap runs, most recently here this month when back from an absence; one to watch for now. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Sole win at 1m on Polytrack; close third over the extended 1m1f on Tapeta last time but has more to prove at 1m2f on turf, even if this is a better fit than the Class 2 he ran in at Newmarket in July or even the 1m1f on Sandown's stiff finish in June; still has a gap in his record, though. |

1st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 3 |

Campaigned in 3yo handicaps this term, below par at Newmarket July festival (1m2f) latest; won comfortably at Kempton (1m) in March on sole AW attempt; respected. |
8/1 |

7th 8 (5) |
12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Unplaced all three times since a successful handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW) in March, but close behind Mr Monaco when front-running fourth of seven at Sandown (1m1f, good to firm) on latest outing; visored in the latter and today; withdrawn last Saturday when the ground was soft (tried heavy as 2yo) which is a worry. |

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. |

There's potential in her pedigree but he failed to beat a rival on her two runs for David Evans in August 2023; absent since and probably best watched on her stable debut. |
