1st Oct 2023 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Reappearance win took his AW form figures (6f/7f) to 121; two underwhelming efforts on turf (1m) since; still has something to prove in this sphere and first-time headgear needs to make a difference. |
9/1 |

12th 5 (17) |
3rd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Two AW wins (7f/6f) from first three starts and remains very lightly raced, but he was a 6l fifth of eight on last month's handicap and turf debut at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) and needs to leave that form behind. |
25/1 |

5th 7 (8) |
3rd Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly-raced 3yo; has won two of his three starts, all on the AW, last time making hard work of landing odds of 2-11 in a 6f Wolverhampton novice (first run after being gelded, third has since won handicaps off 50 and 55); not obviously well treated on handicap/turf debut but step up to 1m should suit and stable in fine form. |

Record is 1-10, the win gained at Newbury (1m, good) in June; came up short in Racing League event most recently; has the ability to go well off this mark, provided she takes to first-time headgear. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |

Five-time winner, all on good to firm ground; arrives in good form but the ground looks a potential stumbling block. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Best known as a Brighton specialist but also runs this track well; needs to rebound from disappointing C&D run four weeks ago but looked in good nick when scoring at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in June; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
7th 1 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Five-time winner who has been placed in half of his six visits here, including when third in this race in 2024; carries a 5lb penalty for winning at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago but Toby Moore's 7lb claim will aid his bid to go back-to-back; considered. |

1st Oct 2023 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Ran well behind a smart rival at Yarmouth (1m, good) on seasonal debut; has not progressed since (beaten favourite on two occasions) and is in danger of becoming a frustrating/disappointing sort; however, addition of blinkers may do the trick on handicap debut; not written off. |
11/4 |

2nd 5 (6) |
9th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

held up in midfield, headway on outer over 2f out, ridden and hung left from over 1f out, kept on and went second inside final 110yds |

3rd 2 (2) |
21st Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Struggled in sole 2yo run but he showed plenty of promise with his second at Yarmouth (1m, good) and third at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in May; that latest form has been boosted by the first two since and he still has untapped potential; respected. |

25th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has gained both wins (AW/turf) at about 1m but recent effort suggest she's ready for a crack at 1m2f; drops back in grade off a workable mark and has a fighting chance on best form. |

1st Oct 2023 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Similar type to Overnight Oats, having gone down by only half a length in C&D contest (good) on latest outing; raced mainly in Class 5 and now goes back up in grade but having Epsom form is a major plus; likely to perform well again; one for the shortlist. |

Nosed ahead in the final strides to beat Down To The Kid in C&D event three weeks ago, taking record at Southwell to 3-5 and strike-rate under Hector Crouch to 5-8; with those stats he's one for the shortlist. |

16th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Sole success came in Redcar novice in April 2023 when trained by the Gosdens; unsuccessful in five starts over hurdles this year for current yard and three modest efforts on the Flat since; on a career-low mark but hard to fancy. |
25/1 |

29th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |

Something to prove regarding current form but he's tackled 7f/1m1f the last twice and is now 7lb lower than when a creditable fourth over 1m4f at Southwell (AW) last August; not written off now back up in trip. |

Front-runner who is not as good as he was but ran okay to be beaten 2l over 1m in a classified race last time; expect a very positive ride back at 7f. |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |

Front-runner who's regressed sharply and again pulled hard when well fancied on his first crack at 0-50 classified company last time; needs to settle better back up from 7f. |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Often front-runs; on the downgrade for current stable but that enables him to run at this level for the first time; needs a revival though. |
