31st Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Scored five times, mostly on AW, for previous stable; placed over C&D last month on debut for new yard, beaten long way over 2m here since; may rebound, back down in distance. |

6th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Major improver in 2023 with four wins (1m2f-12.4f) for Sir Mark Prescott, and he wasn't far off his best when third of 13 over 1m4f here on stable debut in December; shapes as if he'll stay this longer trip; respected. |

3rd 1 (1) |
20th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Major improver with four middle-distance wins for Sir Mark Prescott (three on AW) since June; tailed off at Epsom on final run for that trainer but was reported to have had an irregular heartbeat and he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; changed hands for 20,000gns in October and needs watching in the market on stable debut. |

Course winner who also made all at Chester (1m4f) off 5lb higher at the start of last summer, but he made an inauspicious start for Lisa Williamson when last of seven over 1m6f here in December. |

22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Won here in 2020; ended a long losing spell with a win at Newbury (1m3f) in June but finished last on both starts since; has not seen much action beyond 1m4f but ran creditably in a muddling 2m race on Kempton AW last November; others look more solid. |
20/1 |

9th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Disappointing favourite when last of four over 1m2f last month but ended long losing spell with quite comfortable win at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) two starts ago and will be fine over today's trip; big player if back on song. |
5/1 |

4th 4 (1) |
4th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Was winning for the first time since February 2021 when successful in another apprentice event at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) nine days ago; just 1lb wrong under his penalty and a contender now that he is back in form; wouldn't want rain, but he's not alone there. |

Two Flat wins at 1m3f/1m6f in 2023; missed most of 2024 and has needed two recent runs; open to improvement in his second handicap with Brian Hughes replacing a 10lb claimer; cheekpieces added latest, now discarded. |

Two-time Flat winner who has been an encouraging third on his two hurdle starts a year apart, the latest at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft) in December; open to improvement in this code and is in with a chance on handicap hurdle debut; cheekpieces return (no positive impact on the Flat). |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Flat/hurdles winner; ran encouragingly on his return to chasing but has failed to back up that effort in two starts since, taking record in this sphere to 0-8; admittedly well treated on best form. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |

Posted best effort for these connections when third at Sedgefield in April (2m5f, good), before appearing to find it harder work last time; mixed record over stayers' trips, and would appreciate the ground drying out. |
10/1 |

5th 2 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |

Both hurdles wins (one at today's trip) came on sound surfaces last year, and April's staying-on Sedgefield chase third (2m5f, good) is his best effort to date for current connections; coming to the boil again. |

Four Flat wins but he hasn't achieved much at big prices in two handicap hurdles, at 2m1f and 2m7f; no great appeal this time, either. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
First visit here; excels at Hamilton, where she was short-headed last month (1m4f, soft), and she was always behind at Ayr on Thursday on a very rare crack at 1m2f (heavy); attempts at this trip have also been scarce but there have been hints that it's a distance at which she could have untapped potential. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Course winner who was beaten by a short head at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) last time; she excels at Hamilton and has never won over a trip this short, but her surplus stamina may be no bad thing given the testing conditions. |

2nd 2 (1) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |

Lost a lot of ground at the start at Ayr last Thursday so there's a risk attached on the back of that; however, in the circumstances she did well to finish third of six (beaten just over 9l) and three of her last four wins have come here (on various ground) including this race last year; capable. |
