18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Has mostly run well since handicapping, one of the exceptions on his sole visit to this track but that was on soft ground and the only time he's had a visor (usually wears cheekpieces); three front-running wins on turf at up to 2m last season and renewed his progress this term, always prominent when scoring from Temporize at Goodwood (2m) last time; whether he can get a good enough early position from stall 1 is a worry, as he's not been quick to find his stride this term, but otherwise he should run very well. |

Multiple winner at up to 14.5f; stays 2m; back on her last winning mark and ran with credit when third at Thirsk (1m4f, good to soft) latest; should be thereabouts. |

11st 9lb |
Inconsistent on the Flat in recent months but has run a couple of good races and he's on a competitive mark judged on his hurdle form in autumn 2022; not ruled out on first jumps outing since that December. |

9st 6lb |
Made a winning start for current yard at Ripon (2m) in June but her form has dipped recently, only sixth in 1m6f Newmarket handicap 29 days ago; she needs to bounce back. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won a four-runner race on stable debut at Ripon (2m) in June but that's her best run this year; probably okay on soft ground but soundly beaten on heavy on latest outing; back to her last winning mark. |

Very well suited by 2m on Polytrack and lurks on a tempting mark but has looked out of sorts in recent months; needs to turn a corner. |

Makes his stable debut on a reduced mark but his form for Charlie Longsdon went the wrong way this year and he has plenty to prove. |

7th Sep 2023 Good 3m 1f 185y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Now 10lb lower than when winning over hurdles last summer but was last of four on chasing debut in July, and his finishing effort over hurdles last month was disappointing; swaps blinkers for refitted visor here; needs to up his game. |
