10th Oct 2024 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Dual 1m3f winner on soft; stays 16.5f; not ruled out of the prize-money but will have to raise the bar to win this; ideally wants rain. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |

1m3f winner; stays 16.5f; performing to a consistent level for the most part of late but has not got close to winning; not ruled out each-way. |

Losing run up to 13, but not disgraced in finishing fourth in his last three starts over 1m2f-1m4f on turf; attempts this far for the first time, but each-way claims if seeing it out. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Went close off 8lb higher in this race (good) last year but he's generally struggled since (Flat and hurdles) and was a remote fourth of five here last time; that took his losing run to 12 and others are preferred. |
15/2 |
|
4 (4) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won over 1m6f here last August off 3lb higher but below form since; showed a bit more when third of five over C&D (good) 19 days ago, however, and a further 2lb drop in the weights gives him a fighting chance. |
5/2 |

26th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Now 1lb lower than his win here over 1m6f (good) last August but he's been well beaten in three starts this summer, on this track and at Ayr; bit to prove. |

24th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Unproven on softer than good; has form figures of 112113 in handicaps, the wins gained over 1m-1m2f on turf; ran well on AW last time; may not have stopped improving yet; major player, provided he stays this new trip. |
15/8 |
|
3rd 10 (10) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made it 4-5 in handicaps on turf this season when seeing off five rivals over 1m2f at Newmarket three weeks ago; that was his first attempt over this trip and a 4lb rise is unlikely to prevent him making a bold bid if proving as effective on AW. |
100/30 |
|
1st 7 (3) |
19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has form figures of 1121, all at Class 6 level in Yorkshire/Scotland, since handicapping; won at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) most recently; now upped in grade and ventures south but may progress further. |

24th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has largely consistent form, including Ripon success (1m4f, good to soft), since wearing a visor; placed in his last three races and holds solid claims in the retained headgear; should go well again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
17th Sep 2023 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |

prominent on outer, led under 3f out, headed over 1f out, no extra inside final furlong, weakened gradually final 110yds |
13/8 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
5th Sep 2023 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Visor has helped, bar one blip at Yarrmouth, and won a weak handicap easily off 7lb lower over C&D 17 days ago; backed that up off his revised mark last Tuesday, despite pulling hard, but could maybe have done without the recent dry spell. |

8th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
4yo maiden who looks well treated on bits of form; trailed home last of seven at Hamilton (1m3f) on stable/seasonal debut, however, and needs to leave that effort well behind. |
16/1 |
|
5 (6) |
19th Jun 2024 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Bought for 12,500gns out of Roger Fell's yard in October; showed some promise last term, notably when second in a Catterick novice in August (1m4f, good to soft); could go well on stable/seasonal debut. |
11/2 |

5th 3 (1) |
24th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Six-race maiden; has performed respectably at 1m-1m4f a few times this season; lesser effort over 1m6f most recently; not progressing thus far but has possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |

5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Some good runs in defeat in November/December, including here, but not at the same level this year and he remains a maiden after 33 starts. |

5th 9 (9) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

19th Jun 2024 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |

Ex-Joseph O'Brien; modest over hurdles and hard to fancy after some hefty defeats on the AW and back on turf this year. |

31st May 2024 Soft 2m 1f 47y Class 6 |

0-10 under rules and his efforts on the AW this year don't suggest that is about to change. |

9th 10 (2) |
16th Apr 2024 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
