Runner-up for the third time in five starts since joining John Butler when best of the rest behind the well-treated Ancient State (won next time) in 16-runner race over C&D (good) 29 days ago; same mark today. |

His losing run is gathering momentum and he has not won over 5f for three years; went close at Goodwood last month (5f, good) though and he should remain a potent force at this level. |

Returned from a break with four decent runs (all over 6f) this spring and continues to edge down the weights; now 0-29 since his 2yo success but probably won't be far away; sports refitted cheekpieces. |

9st 7lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but there were some good runs in defeat and he starts this season off an 8lb lower mark than for last year's reappearance; solid third in one run at Yarmouth; best on good ground or faster; makes his seasonal return with a hood back on and with his stable in good form. |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All his wins have come at Doncaster but he's fully effective elsewhere and is still unexposed on AW; plenty of solid efforts over 5f this season but losing run is mounting up and he's struggled in four previous runs at this trip; down the list. |
10/1 |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |

All his wins have come at Doncaster but he is fully effective elsewhere, including on AW as evidenced by his close third in this race last year when rated 3lb higher; retains plenty of ability and more minor money not out of the question. |

Good winner at Bath in July (5.5f, good to firm) and runner-up at Brighton one month later; not at his best at Sandown last week though and this demands a career best. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Made all at Salisbury (6f, good) in May; unplaced on next two starts but he was a close fifth of seven at Ffos Las most recently and he ran well over C&D last August on firm ground; might not be far away. |
6/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Multiple winner who made all at Salisbury last month (6f, good) and was ridden differently when never involved at Catterick; had no penalty last time and now 5lb higher, but if returned to positive tactics the ground won't be an excuse. |
8/1 |

7th 6 (7) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |

7-43; took full advantage of an easing mark to gain his third Salisbury win when making all (6f apprentices', good) last week; escapes a penalty, and Jake Dickson is able to claim his 7lb allowance, so his chance is an obvious one; clearly the one to beat if in the same kind of form. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Both wins were in late 2022 and he has been looking regressive this year; wouldn't be the obvious answer after nearly three months off. |
8/1 |

27th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last win was over C&D but that was in a novice in December 2022; very well treated on old form but he's faded in his five runs this year and was beaten 15l at Chepstow (7-2) last time; had a difficult track position in that race but he needs a big turnaround back in trip. |

30th May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

No win since late 2022; has dropped in the weights and his reappearance effort at Doncaster wasn't a bad run but he failed to build on it at Salisbury a fortnight ago; others appeal more. |

Less exposed than most of these and was having only his third outing when short-headed in six-runner handicap at Goodwood (5f, heavy; won debut on good to firm) in May; edged up 3lb but open to further improvement and must be considered. |

17th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Ten-time sprint winner who scored at Bath (5f, good) two weeks ago and the quick turnaround may have caused his downfall at Kempton three days later; has claims if he can recapture that penultimate form and his four runs over C&D include a win and two thirds; dangerous. |
7/2 |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Often a front-runner and dual C&D winner who has been in good form lately, including scoring by a neck at Bath (5f, good) on Sunday; has a 4lb penalty for that, but is well drawn to attack and much respected. |

10st 0lb |
Four-time turf winner including off 5lb higher over C&D (good to firm) last spring; well held at Wolverhampton when last seen in March but that was after a good spell on AW including a Kempton win; has good record when fresh and he needs a close look back from four months off. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
