29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Back to winning ways off this mark at Lingfield (1m, AW; cheekpieces first time) in April; he hasn't built on that and others may have his measure. |

7th 10 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month but not at the same level at Epsom (8.5f, good) and Kempton (7f, AW) since, and needs to get back on track. |
20/1 |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Added to a good record in the spring when winning off 2lb lower at Lingfield (1m) last month in first-time cheekpieces; a long way below that level on turf since and this trip is a bare minimum round here, especially from a wide stall. |

1st Oct 2023 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Entitled to win a C&D novice (on soft; made all) in August and it was always going to be tough for him in a very deep nursery at York's Ebor meeting (form working out very well); on a challenging mark but should be a factor. |
12/1 |
|
17th 7 (18) |
24th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Made his experience count when making all in 7f Epsom novice (soft) three weeks ago; the runner-up gave that form a boost when scoring with something to spare at Ripon last weekend; stall 18 might not be ideal, though. |
16/1 |
|
1st 6 (5) |
3rd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Runner-up to an impressive winner in maiden at Sandown (7f, good; unraced on softer) in June; couldn't crack it at the fourth attempt when making the running over 6f at Salisbury (good to firm) 12 days later but he's narrowly the form pick in this field and has some experience of this track from his second outing. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
8lb better off with Dappled Light for a half-length defeat at Bath (1m, good to firm) in May; won a small-field handicap back at Bath four days later but two runs in Class 5 events since haven't been so good; others appeal more. |
8/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark on turf at the 20th attempt when accounting for three rivals at Bath (1m, firm) last month; below par when fifth of 13 at Salisbury (1m, good) 13 days ago; win record is offputting. |
9/1 |
|
5th 11 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Placed three consecutive times at Bath before justifying favouritism in four-runner race there (1m, firm) 19 days ago; nudged up only 2lb for that but this race is much deeper; others appeal more. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Similar type to Cerulean Bay in that he ran creditably in the Royal Hunt Cup (fourth) last time but is getting little help from the assessor, having proved largely consistent since his last win; solid contender all the same. |
11/1 |
|
4th 8 (32) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Dual winner at Ascot; hindered by trouble in the Spring Cup on reappearance and ran creditably kept to Newbury last time; far from disgraced when seventh in this contest last year but has a stiffer mark this time and his ceiling has seemingly been reached already. |
25/1 |
|
4th 1 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Tough and consistent sort who won the C&D Spring Cup on 2025 reappearance but couldn't get a clear run in it this time round; third in this race last year and 9lb higher today but he's an each-way contender. |

20th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Drawn a blank since his Ffos Las nursery win (6f) in September 2023; big prices and well beaten in four runs for John Butler but he ran better than the distance beaten at Lingfield 17 days ago (forced a strong pace and weakened quickly in the final furlong); tumbling down the weights and he needs a close look in the betting now back sprinting. |

Yet to add to 6f turf win for Jack Channon in September 2023 and was safely held on all three starts for John Butler in the autumn (7f-1m); lurks on a dangerous mark though and needs a check in the betting. |

1st Oct 2023 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
All runs on good or quicker; debut winner who bumped into one on her nursery debut at Windsor (6f) and then drifted her way out of contention when a beaten favourite at Goodwood; on a dangerous mark and the tongue-tie could make a difference to her. |
5/1 |

4th 2 (1) |
5th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning debut at Windsor (6f, good) in June; placed in both starts since, bumping into one who went on to win a nursery at the Ebor meeting when second back at Windsor 19 days ago; unraced on slower than good; open to further progress. |

1st Oct 2023 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Would be on a good mark if recapturing the form of his Ripon win in June (6f, good); struggled since, last time finishing upside Rednblue Sovereign in a hot York nursery (cheekpieces tried there now left off); this is easier than that. |
16/1 |
|
16th 8 (5) |
24th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Easy winner of a 6f novice at Ripon (good) in June; fourth under a penalty at Pontefract and well held when 50-1 for an Ascot Listed race (7f, good) on his two outings since but his mark is feasible if first-time cheekpieces help him to recapture the Ripon form. |

4th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Lightly raced 3yo who returned to form when going close at Bath (1m, good) last month; has also run well on good to yielding ground (unraced on softer); can be in the mix if backing up that latest performance. |

14th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Having dropped in the weights he made an immediate impact on AW in February, recording a quick hat-trick in 1m handicaps at Newcastle, Lingfield and Wolverhampton; career-best effort when second in a 1m handicap at Newcastle last month but his form dipped at Wolverhampton 13 days ago; drawn widest and could prove vulnerable. |
10/1 |
|
10th 3 (4) |
1st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Appeared to lose his way after completing an AW hat-trick at the start of the year (including a win over C&D), but he bounced right back to form when beaten half a length into second of 13 at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) last Saturday; off the same mark (due a 1lb rise) and major chance if repeating that effort; stable also runs Never Fear. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 11 (3) |
27th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Landed a hat-trick early in the year, including a win over C&D, but has lost his way since, latterly when tailed off in first-time headgear (removed today) seven weeks ago; isn't easily recommended. |
