15th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Made it four wins from her first five starts when landing Kempton handicap (7f, AW) in May, and after a heavy defeat in 1m handicap at Royal Ascot (failed to stay) she bounced back for Listed win at Deauville (7f, good to soft) in July; major player if confirming that latest promise. |

24th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual turf winner, who made it 4-11 on AW when scoring at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) 11 days ago; that was a last-gasp win but he did well to overcome trouble and is only 2lb higher now back up in trip; respected. |

1st 1 (9) |
13th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Ran well in blinkers behind a notable opponent in a 1m handicap at Chelmsford in January; headgear off in two runs since, namely a Southwell win and a good third at Kempton; not discounted back at 7f. |

3rd 2 (8) |

Went close in first-time blinkers at Chelmsford in January before gaining a narrow win without headgear at Southwell (1m) the following month; up another 2lb but he remains feasibly treated on his best form and is 2-5 at this track; key player. |

27th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Two 1m turf wins last summer and mostly creditable efforts in defeat subsequently, including C&D; much depends on whether he's ready to roll after 113 days off. |

6th Nov 2024 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |

Came from a good way back to be a closing fourth at Chelmsford (1m) and that continued his consistent run of form; handles soft ground and was runner-up on his previous crack at 1m2f. |

19th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has progressed from handicaps (three successes) to pattern races, winning Listed event at Deauville in July and posting a career best when beaten a short neck by Spycatcher in Group 3 on the same course (6f, soft) in August; goes well in the mud and may not have reached his limit just yet. |

21st Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Lacklustre effort at Lingfield (1m) three weeks ago but his earlier C&D third came in a red-hot handicap and a reproduction would give him strong claims. |
3/1 |
|
7th 6 (7) |
28th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Strong form at 6f/7f and his third at Southwell two weeks ago was perfectly respectable; unplaced in both 1m runs but leaves the impression he'll stay it around here; others preferred for win purposes all the same. |
9/1 |

8 (10) |
14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Won twice over 6f on the AW last winter including here; just 1lb higher than when beating 17 rivals at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to firm) last summer, but will need to settle better than when last of seven at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) last month (Apiarist second). |

Two creditable shows in midwinter, including over C&D, but his sole win was back in 2023 and he ran no sort of race on this track in January; needs to shrug that off. |

8th 9 (4) |
14th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Hard to make a case for him being on a good mark on what we've seen in handicaps but perhaps returning to sprinting will help this free-goer; Rossa Ryan back in the plate for AW debut. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Five-race maiden; gelded prior to creditable second in Beverley novice event (7.5f, soft) last time; receives weight all round on only his second handicap attempt, so may have a fighting chance. |
25/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
26th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Found further improvement to be a 2l third on soft ground at Chester (6f) and has been gelded since a quiet nursery debut at Glorious Goodwood; has to be of interest in a novice that lacks any depth. |
5/2 |
|
10th 13 (12) |
3rd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Has improved with each of his three runs (all at 6f) and he was a good third at Chester (soft) last time; there's every chance he'll be fine at 7f and could continue to progress; not ruled out on nursery debut. |

Six-race maiden for whom lots went wrong (failed to settle and hung right) when tailed off in maiden here (1m, soft) in April; however, he's shown promise previously and the drop back to sprinting and return to better ground could bear fruit on today's handicap debut. |
