3rd 4 (5) |
5th Nov 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won a C&D maiden just over a year ago and easily landed a Salisbury handicap (1m, good to firm) in July; shot up the weights as a result and could only manage fifth of seven at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in September, but shaped as though the return to this stiffer mile will suit; respected. |

7th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who has been tailed off on turf the last twice, either side of a wind op; has plenty to prove but the return to AW offers a glimmer of hope as he showed promise on Polytrack/Tapeta last year; blinkers go on. |
14/1 |

10th 5 (1) |
22nd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up on two of his four 2yo starts (all over 1m on AW); not discredited on handicap/seasonal debut (1m2f, good to firm) in May but tailed off at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm), given wind surgery later in June and not seen since; mixed messages but he's unexposed. |
20/1 |
|
6th 1 (5) |
8th Jun 2024 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Runner-up on two of his four 2yo starts (all over 1m on AW); beaten 8l when fourth of six on last month's handicap/seasonal debut at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) but that was a warm little race and he could improve for it; this Masar colt is not ruled out now upped further in trip. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 178y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Won against his own age-group here (2m, soft; also suited by good) in December and has finished close up on all three outings since (1m7f-2m); must be considered on this first attempt at 2m4f. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Consistent for a while now and, although beaten off this mark on his last two starts, it was a pretty good handicap in which he went down narrowly at Newbury the last time (2m, good to soft); thereabouts if gelling with Jude Fernandes. |

31st Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Has failed to progress and finished almost 5l behind less exposed Livinthelife at Wolverhampton (9.5f) most recently, taking record to 0-7; new trip needs to make a difference. |
14/1 |
|
4 (6) |
12th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't matched his maiden form in three runs in AW handicaps, the latest of them over 1m at Lingfield last week; likely to stay this far and this isn't a strong event, but he's due to be 3lb lower from the weekend. |

5th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Son of Massaar has yet to make the frame in five starts, fifth of seven in 1m Redcar handicap 18 days ago; he needs to take a big step forward. |
25/1 |

5th 6 (2) |
17th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Signs of ability on debut over 1m on Newcastle AW in October but has made little impact since, including on handicap debut back at Newcastle last week; has work to do right now. |
25/1 |

10th 4 (1) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Some promise over C&D on debut last October; no progress since but his reappearance last month was after a 293-day absence; betting useful now handicapping at a low level. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Best RPRs over shorter (6f) but did make all in a slowly run C&D Class 4 in January (4-1); failed to get majorly competitive - often slowly away - in his last three starts; return to AW might assist, along with Ethan Tindall's 5lb claim. |
13/2 |

7th 5 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ended a long losing sequence at Newcastle (1m) in January and largely in good form since, set a lot to do when fifth of 13 at Musselburgh (1m) 19 days ago; considered. |
5/1 |

5th 5 (3) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
In good form on the Newcastle AW this year but not at the same level back on turf here (1m1f, good) a fortnight ago and now 0-11 on grass. |

17th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Triple-figure prices for four runs to date, finishing last three times and well beaten here 11 days ago; again didn't see out 1m latterly, though, and this is more realistic. |

17th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Huge prices and well beaten in three runs to date, latterly when behind King Of Cali here (jumped left leaving the stalls); is one of three saddled by Craig Lidster and is worth a look in the market in first-time headgear. |
25/1 |

9st 0lb |
100-1 when tailed off on debut at Chester (7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, having got loose beforehand; a transformation is needed. |

Folded tamely in 1m AW event at Newcastle two weeks ago and ended up finishing last of nine; needs a major step forward. |

|
9th 3 (6) |
6th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
25,000euros yearling; fourth foal; dam unplaced (RPR 67), closely related to 1m2f winner Mulk (88), half-sister to smart 5f-6f winner Duke Of Firenze out of Fillies' Mile/Coronation Stakes winner Nannina; trainer has enjoyed 2yo success here lately; not ruled out on debut. |
