1st 8 (7) |
29th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Has run well in two of her three handicaps and she justified favouritism back in a maiden over 1m at Kempton (AW; second won since); would appear to have little room to manoeuvre off this mark but is effective with give underfoot and running better than most; respected. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (1) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
0-6 but she's been generally progressive and has recorded RPRs in the 80s in her last two runs (handicaps); ran well for a long way when third at Sandown (1m2f) last time and that was after a strong-finishing fourth over C&D in June; this is competitive back in a maiden but she's respected for in-form yard. |
9/2 |

3rd 8 (8) |
10th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Promise when making the frame in 1m maiden/novice events on soft turf and AW last autumn; her first two efforts this term were a little disappointing but she got her career back on track when fourth in 1m Kempton handicap two months ago; the way she kept on from the rear on that occasion suggests this return to 1m2f should suit; retains potential. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in 2022 and narrowly failed to land a gamble off 1lb lower under these conditions just before Christmas; not as effective since but is worth a market check, particularly versus John Butler's other two runners. |
20/1 |

11th 11 (4) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Gamble went astray, but only just, over C&D in December; not so effective over further at Wolverhampton since but he lurks on a dangerous mark; Final Night looks a safer option for John Butler fans. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has won on soft ground and he's now 8lb lower than when runner-up at Leicester (7f, good to firm) in June; however, he's finished no better than seventh across his five outings since. |
12/1 |
|
6 (9) |
30th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Respectable second at Leicester in June but far from consistent otherwise this year and losing spell goes back to spring 2024; not particularly solid. |
16/1 |
|
12 (10) |
5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner who was beaten just 1l when second at Leicester in June and is now 6lb lower; however, soundly beaten on his three runs since (C&D last time) and the first-time visor needs to prompt a revival. |

14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Struggled early on for this yard (at huge prices) but he was dropped into a Class 6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f) 12 days ago, backed into 11-8 favouritism and duly returned to form, finding only an in-form rival too good; 1lb rise not an issue given what he was capable of last year; key player. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 (8) |
2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Two wins (1m2f/1m4f) in 2025 for previous yard, but he's raced in the rear and stayed there in all five runs for this trainer; on dangerous mark on this drop back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won six for Darryll Holland, most notably when awarded the Spring Mile in March 2025; lost his way thereafter, and Gay Kelleway (0-4) couldn't rejuvenate; joined Jim Goldie for 13,000gns and there were positive signs when third over 1m here (stable debut) recently; is dangerously handicapped. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 1 (3) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Fairly useful for Darryll Holland, then form went markedly awry during a brief spell with Gay Kelleway; sold for 13,000gns since last run; market may prove instructive on debut for another new yard. |

4th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Just one win (1m) from 13 attempts and unplaced all five starts this year; however, her mark is falling and she wasn't disgraced when a never-nearer fourth over 5f at Goodwood (soft) 11 days ago; today's trip might be ideal; could have a say. |
7/1 |
|
4th 8 (2) |
24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won a 1m novice as 2yo but hasn't lacked for pace over 6f for this yard in 2024, albeit her challenge came to little when dropped to 5f at Ascot in July; out of the weights and likely other days. |
14/1 |
|
16th 19 (8) |
13th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
1m winner for Clive Cox; campaigned over shorter for new yard and she showed lots of pace at York four weeks ago (6f, good to soft) before tiring in the final furlong; worth a crack at 5f on that evidence but not entirely solid. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Third over C&D in November and that was off a 4lb higher mark; two lesser efforts have followed and his long losing run looks set to continue. |
12/1 |
|
5th 9 (1) |
23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) in June and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and his long losing run continues; the first-time visor needs to spark something. |
