15th Oct 2023 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Showed no improvement on nursery debut six days ago and still hasn't built on debut effort; chance partly depends on whether he responds well to first-time headgear. |

took keen hold, slowly into stride, in touch with leaders, bit short of room and lost ground over 6f out, headway 3f out, pressed leaders 2f out, weakened quickly over 1f out |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Gradually back to form this term, most recently prevailing at Goodwood (6f, good to soft); has never won above Class 5 but she remains favourably treated, having defied current mark last term (over 7f). |
4/1 |
|
1st 8 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Strike-rate of 4-35; best run for a while when a front-running second at Lingfield (7f, good) and dropping back to 6f won't hinder, nor the slower ground; could have done with a higher draw ideally but should run well. |
13/2 |

2nd 8 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Out of the frame in her last ten starts, but is 4lb lower than when making all over C&D this time last year; by no means written off. |

5f maiden winner on turf in June; ran as well as she ever has when a front-running third in a Goodwood nursery four weeks ago (7f, soft); more will be needed to defy her penalty here. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner at around this trip last year (Chepstow maiden and Sedgefield novice); comes into this having won a Carlisle handicap on the Flat three weeks ago (1m1f, soft); quite interesting. |
7/1 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has a record of 3-7 (Flat/hurdles) for current yard; creditable third at Newbury (1m4f, good) on seasonal debut most recently; major player off same mark, assuming he copes with this drop back in trip (stiff track and forecast slow ground are helpful in that respect). |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won this off 4lb lower last year (good) not long after a success over hurdles; lightly raced since, with a novice hurdle win in November before well beaten on handicap hurdle debut in December; major player if he's in the same form as 12 months ago and he has run well after a similar break before. |

15th Oct 2023 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Consistent thus far, having been placed in all three runs, latest at Beverley (7.5f, soft) behind an easy winner; has solid claims, with another creditable effort on the cards. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
20th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Made promising debut at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) in the spring; produced a similar effort when going slightly further at Wetherby soon after; step up in trip looks positive and she could kick on again after her break. |

15th Oct 2023 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Five-race maiden who has some respectable form over 6f/7f; folded tamely over 1m most recently but may improve for this drop back in trip with tongue-tie applied. |
7/1 |
|
8th 3 (11) |
9th Sep 2023 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Questionable whether he stayed the 7f when fourth in a Newmarket nursery but that form hasn't worked out too badly and his trainer is happy to go the mile; needs respecting. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
12th Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Mildly progressive and he bumped into an impressive newcomer last time at Pontefract (good to soft); just the type to pay his way in nurseries and stepping up to 7f looks a good move (dam stayed well). |
4/1 |
