17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Big prices and out of the frame in three starts since returning in April, albeit he met trouble when finishing in midfield in the Carlisle Bell (7.7f, soft) last month; 4lb lower than for the latest of two wins in April last year; interesting. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins last April (1m, AW/soft) and he's 1lb lower than when last successful; the return to slow turf could also be a plus; however, he's failed to shine on either outing this season and has something to prove. |

7yo who has an impressive 8-28 strike-rate and is effective on Tapeta; he may have needed his comeback run at Newmarket last month but was beaten a long way at 66-1, and he was also below par last May/July on his final two outings last season; plenty to prove. |

23rd Aug 2024 Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |

Six-time winner who is suited by good or slower ground; has mixed record this season but she won at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and went very close at Chester (10.3f, good) last time; on same mark as for that last run and she's a big player if she can repeat the form. |

Won over C&D on good ground in 2021 and came from off the pace to end long losing streak at Carlisle (1m, soft; first-time blinkers) in June but her form has dipped since that latest success and others in this field have more persuasive profiles. |

With blinkers added he finished runner-up from similar marks at Doncaster (1m, good) and Nottingham (1m, heavy) in the summer, but twice well held since (back in cheekpieces last time); now 0-13 and others are preferred. |

Disappointed on latest outing six weeks ago and now 0-12 but lost out only by a neck off today's mark at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy; also suited by good) two starts ago and has obvious claims if back at that level here; blinkered for last three runs; cheekpieces refitted today. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |

Gained fourth Ripon success when making all over 1m2f (soft) in July; 4l second at Chester (1m2f, good) next time and perhaps a drop back to 1m didn't suit when only sixth of seven back at Ripon 19 days ago. |

Two soft-ground turf wins, including one for this yard, but he acts on better ground and made the most of a good draw when close third of 15 at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Token Love seventh) in cheekpieces three weeks ago; that is just about the best recent form on offer and he's nicely berthed again; visor goes on and he's respected. |
