9th 3 (3) |
11th Oct 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; highly competitive in five of his seven races, winning three; blinkered on last two starts (1m4f, soft) when winning at Goodwood but racing too freely at Ascot, and the headgear is absent today; needs to resume improvement. |
12/1 |

7th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |

took keen hold, midfield, lost position 2f out, edged right over 1f out, kept on but no impression inside final furlong |

1st 7 (3) |
24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Only seventh in the London Gold Cup at Newbury but highly competitive in his other four races, winning twice and good third to the progressive Lord Of Love at Newmarket (1m4f, good) on latest start six weeks ago; looked a little awkward (hung left) at Newmarket (hung left) and blinkers are enlisted this time; big player if the headgear has a positive effect. |

19th Jul 2024 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Came good at sixth attempt, dominating the always-competitive Cumberland Plate from the front at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last month; takes on higher-calibre opposition here and has work to do at the weights but could have significant further improvement to come. |

made all, pushed along up the centre over 2f out, ridden over 1f out, wandered around inside final furlong, kept on well final 110yds, unchallenged |
3/1 |

2nd 3 (3) |
4th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 179y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Best 2yo form when going close on soft at Salisbury (1m); looked likely to raise his game upped to 1m2f at Newmarket but he just plugged on into third in October and again on reappearance/handicap debut there (good) last month; step up in trip is due but drying ground is a query. |

16th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 0-6 on Flat and 0-6 over hurdles; far from solid on his handicap form; returns to this code for the first time since July 2024. |
16/1 |
|
5th 3 |
25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Record of 0-6 on Flat and 0-5 over hurdles; modest effort over C&D in sole outing this term (stable debut, 50-1 shot); perhaps best watched unless the market signals prove stronger. |
9/1 |

8th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
A fair maiden on the Flat for Hugo Palmer but he was headstrong and failed to go on in four runs over hurdles for Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero in the spring; could still do better for his new handler after a layoff though. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Blinkered when he hit a run of second spots at 7f and 1m last summer, including here (soft; acts on good to firm) in September; had previously looked unlucky on a couple of those occasions and the blinkers were absent when never figuring at Lingfield ten days ago; might do better with that aid now refitted and he's dangerously handicapped; watch the market. |
13/2 |

8th 1 (14) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
16-race maiden; runner-up on five occasions, most recently on soft ground at Brighton (1m) in September, but below his best on his last two starts and needs to bounce back; headgear removed. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (6) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Reliable sort who turned in a rare below-par effort when fourth of five in 7f Leicester claimer in October; handily weighted if back on song after a break for his in-form yard. |

26th Apr 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Son of Belardo who showed fair form in his three juvenile starts in the autumn, coming in a solid sixth of ten in 1m Salisbury novice on his final start; he appeals as the sort to take a step forward now venturing into handicap company. |

5th Oct 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Twice-raced colt who is still open to progress; promising fourth at Newbury (7f, good to soft) then nearly justified favouritism at Ffos Las (7.4f, soft) where he went down by only a nose; remains of interest. |

6th Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Arguably shaped with more promise than finishing position suggests when seventh of ten at Salisbury (1m, soft) last month, making a lot of the running before weakening in final furlong; might last longer on this less-testing surface and with that run under his belt. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Beaten favourite over C&D this month but Miss Maverick did get first run on him and he has a 5lb pull on the winner now; remains relatively unexposed over this far. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Completed a four-timer on his first four starts in this sphere at around 2m; held his form in defeat until weakening right out of it when 40-1 at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) last month; the same distance is being persevered with but he's down in class and not out of this. |
4/1 |

16th 22 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Solid novice hurdler at 2m from last spring to autumn, completing a four-timer (on good ground) prior to holding his form, running-on sixth in Grade 2 at Cheltenham the final occasion; attractively weighed and has possibilities with this new trip worth exploring. |

Collared close home over 1m6f here last time; just as effective at 1m4f last year but nudged back up 2lb and no win since August 2024. |

2nd 2 (6) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Latest Kempton effort (1m4f) wasn't one of his best but he is on a feasible mark on last year's best; Rossa Ryan booked and a better effort should be forthcoming. |
