1st 9 (11) |
20th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Second in maiden here (7f, soft) in July on second start, seeing his race out well to pass Kings Valley late on; major player on that but he flopped when favourite at Newbury (7f, good to soft) over three weeks later. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Ran okay on debut here before taking second at Sandown (7f, soft) after seeing his race out well; has a Group 2 entry and looks sure to be involved. |

14-1, about 4l fifth of eight in novice at Newbury (6f, good) three weeks ago showed significant ability but two others in this have shown more. |

2nd 8 (14) |
20th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Group 1 Futurity entry; best of the newcomers when third of ten in maiden here (7f, soft; 1l behind Navy Jack) in July, after making a big challenge over 1f out; 11-2 but ducked to his right from the outside stall when always behind in valuable maiden at York (7f, good to firm) four weeks later; has the outside stall again but it's too early to forget the debut promise. |
6/1 |

12th 7 (14) |
25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
8-1, best of the newcomers when third of ten to subsequent Listed winner at Sandown (7f, soft) last month; pedigree provides optimism he'll improve and rookie trainer has unearthed some useful 2yos this year; contender. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Has become inconsistent but looks interesting back down in grade, having recorded 1m2f wins at Ascot and Sandown in last two attempts in Class 3; admittedly on a tougher mark now. |
8/1 |
|
7th 6 (14) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
4yo who won twice last year and got back on track to score over C&D (good; acts on soft) this June in first-time cheekpieces, which have been kept since; did not get run of the race in a top York handicap seven weeks ago and not discredited; needs a second look. |
16/1 |

10 (18) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
4yo who won twice last year and got back on track to win in first-time cheekpieces at Sandown (1m2f, good) last month; appeared to have more in hand than the 1l winning margin suggests and he might have more to offer in the headgear; could be in the mix under a 5lb penalty. |

18th Jun 2024 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Slowly away and no impact when fifth at Haydock (1m, good to firm) last month on first handicap start; however, he showed promise on soft ground on his debut last September and perhaps he'll tap back into that when reverting to a slow surface; trainer does well here; wears a first-time hood. |
9/2 |

5th 9 (2) |
11th May 2024 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Signs of promise last autumn on first two starts (7f/1m, soft/good to firm) and likewise when close fourth of five at Southwell (1m, AW) in March; his talented half-siblings Valley Forge and Speak improved for this yard when sent into handicaps, and he may well do likewise; one to consider. |

30th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Sole success came over C&D last October; has been running consistently well on turf and she has scope to improve further back on AW; runs without hood worn on last three starts; holds claims. |
9/2 |

3rd 7 (1) |
25th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Delivered on debut promise when winning 8.6f AW novice in the autumn; yet to make any significant progress this year and her tendency to race too freely is a nagging concern but she kept on well for third at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) last month and will probably be on the premises again here; tongue-tie removed. |

Flat winner on soft ground for James Horton; pulled up when last seen on the AW at Lingfield in December; bought for 1,000gns in March; best watched on hurdles debut. |

Sold out of Charles Hills's yard for 32,000 gns last October; showed improvement stepping up in distance when winning on handicap debut at Haydock (1m2f, soft) last month; first-time cheekpieces now on and steps up another 2f in a tougher race. |

18th Dec 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced and just about his best run yet when beaten under 3l over 1m4f here last month; ran poorly in first-time cheekpieces at Lingfield since and they are quickly discarded; no shock were he to have a bigger performance in him. |

4th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Promising when third of five behind two previous winners on his Ascot debut (5f, good) in May, but not seen again (gelded in the meantime) until eighth of ten at Sandown (7f, soft) a fortnight ago; has something to prove after that, but would be involved if rediscovering his debut form. |
6/1 |

8th 12 (9) |
20th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Fair form when third of five, behind two previous winners, in a conditions stakes at Ascot (5f, good) in May; problems at the stalls since (twice withdrawn) and he was then gelded in July; player if still able to tap into his debut promise. |
7/1 |

5th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Promising third, behind a pair of previous winners, in conditions stakes at Ascot (5f, good); should be suited by this extra furlong (half-brother to a 6f 2yo winner) and holds leading claims; now hooded. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
27-race maiden but he's had three seconds since August and things didn't go his way behind an improver at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time; should get a good tow into this race and has claims if he gets the breaks. |
9/1 |
|
2 (8) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
26-race maiden but he's finished runner-up in his last three starts including over C&D (cheekpieces reapplied) on Saturday; had some traffic issues in that race and he should be in the mix again if turned out quickly. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Still a maiden after 25 starts but has twice finished second over 6f in recent weeks and wil be suited by today's return to 7f on Tapeta; sports refitted cheekpieces; probably won't be far away. |
