13th Oct 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Concedes weight all round but has a solid profile, with three wins in a row in selling novice/races (7f/1m, good/AW) before fair sixth in Doncaster sales race (6.5f, soft) and good third on recent nursery debut at Newmarket (1m, good to firm); could be thereabouts. |

3rd 3 (1) |
28th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins in a row in selling/novice races (7f/1m, good/AW) before fair sixth in sales race at Doncaster (6.5f, soft) a fortnight ago; could have more to offer now back up in trip and Ryan Moore is booked on nursery debut. |

8st 11lb |
Justified favouritism in 1m AW novice race at Kempton last week, adding to his 7f wins (seller/novice) on good ground; improving sort who is now bidding for a four-timer; possibilities if he copes with drop in trip. |

Won four in a row on Tapeta for Barry Brennan in early part of this year (two at this track); has run with credit on turf since for Tom Dascombe in June/July and his current trainer; returns to AW following a break and has been gelded; any market move should be noted. |

10th Jul 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
250-1, always struggling in a warm Newbury novice on last month's seasonal return; generous-looking initial mark if the RPR of 63 for September's C&D debut third is taken as gospel; not without interest. |
25/1 |

13th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Outsider in two novice events at Kempton (1m, AW) last September, clearly better effort when third of nine on debut; looks a longer-term prospect. |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
In good order here when last seen at the beginning of the year, winning over 1m4f in January before being beaten a head over today's distance the following month; holds claims if ready to roll after a break. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 10 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has a patchy profile but he justified support when bouncing back with a strong-finishing win here (1m4f) last month; up 4lb but that was a cosy success and the form has been boosted by the runner-up since; interesting contender. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (1) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 1m novice at Kempton in September 2023 but 0-10 in handicaps since; did catch the eye when third at Kempton (1m3f) back on AW in November but hasn't built on it twice since, finishing remote third at Chelmsford (1m6f) latterly; the return to 1m4f may help but others are more convincing. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 4lb |
Showed progression in handicap hurdles late last year, finishing the year off with a 2l second at Limerick off 87 (2m, heavy); Flat return at Roscommon was not encouraging but may do better back over hurdles, although may prefer softer; new headgear tried. |
7/1 |

29th Jul 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
10st 2lb |
Three flat wins for Michael Bell came at 1m6f on quick ground; ordinary enough hurdles form for current yard but fine run on the flat over this trip at the Curragh on Derby weekend back on decent ground, only losing second late on when 2lb out of handicap; down in grade here and tongue-tie tried; has to be respected. |
13/2 |

3rd 11 (1) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |
8st 7lb |
Dual-purpose; 3-13 on the Flat for Michael Bell, all three wins over 1m6f on fast ground; has placed AW form at around this trip; modest form on easy ground over hurdles so far for this yard but return to quicker conditions on the Flat could revive; 2lb wrong. |

13th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Juvenile hurdle winner who has finished third in both his handicaps, beaten about 3l and 10l; looks vulnerable off current mark unless the new tongue-tie brings him on. |
6/1 |

2 |
13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Hasn't won since making a winning hurdles debut at Stratford last July but shaped with promise after six-month break when staying on to finish third of nine on handicap debut at Worcester (2m, good) three weeks ago; Harry Cobden takes over for the first time and holds claims. |

27th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

A small amount of ability over 5f on the AW at the start of the year, but now 0-11 and makes little appeal from out of the weights returned to Polytrack. |
