2nd 1 |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Useful on Flat and has quickly reached a similar level over hurdles, posting a career best when first past the post in a big field at Aintree's Grand National meeting (2m, good to soft) only to be disqualified for a whip offence; seeks compensation but a 6lb higher mark will make things tougher. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful on the Flat and has quickly reached a similar level over hurdles, finishing a creditable fifth in strong, big-field handicaps at Leopardstown (yielding) and Kelso (also 2m, good to soft) on his last two outings; each-way claims. |
25/1 |

5th 1 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful on the Flat; lightly raced over hurdles and bounced back from heavy defeat in the Greatwood with 11l fifth of 17 in competitive handicap at Leopardstown (2m, yielding) in December; that latest form has received a couple of firm boosts and this Irish challenger has each-way claims. |

9st 6lb |
Six-time winner but only one of those came in a double-figure field (October 2022); ran well at Newmarket when last seen eight months ago; has gone well fresh in the past; others appeal more all the same. |

25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Beat three rivals over 1m4f on the July Course here (good to firm) under Alexandra Egan in midsummer; comfortably held in three outings since but has dipped back to that successful mark. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Beat three rivals over 1m4f here in July since when he's been comfortably held; on the plus side, he might appreciate this belated return to 1m6f as he does have form over this far. |

3rd Nov 2023 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Dual heavy-ground winner last autumn who progressed again this spring over 1m2f and also ran well on her sole attempt at 1m4f; absent four months before her respectable fourth of seven at Chester seven weeks ago, a run she may have needed and it's possible she can resume her improvement. |

10st 0lb |
Knows how to win as he showed when successful from four rivals at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last month, but he was allowed to dictate there and didn't back it up at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) a week ago (has won over that C&D); needs to bounce back. |

Recorded his sixth win when making all to justify favouritism off reduced mark at Wolverhampton (1m6f) 18 days ago; this is a deeper race but he's only 2lb higher than last time and has won over C&D in the past; could be a major force again. |

9st 4lb |
Won Windsor maiden and went close on handicap debut there, both over 1m2f in July; unseated rider leaving the stalls at Goodwood in August, which was her only appearance on ground softer than good; had a fair first stab at 1m4f here on latest start but now needs to resume improvement. |

Won Windsor maiden (1m2f, good to firm) in July on third start and went very close in handicap there (1m2f, good) next time; unseated rider leaving the stalls at Goodwood in August last time; needs to avoid similar mishap but pedigree suggests that 1m4f will suit and she's one to consider. |

3rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Won three times in 2023, including here over 1m2f, but he's not been in the same form in four starts since being gelded; possibly needed the outing over 1m at Kempton last time and now steps back up to 1m4f, which should suit, with better needed. |

His only win was back in 2020 in a Tipperary maiden; has threatened a few times since and wasn't beaten all that far at York last time, but others appeal more for the win; tries cheekpieces. |

Only win in 23 attempts was at Tipperary on second juvenile start (7f, good to yielding) when with Joseph O'Brien; some fair form since, notably when third over C&D off 4lb higher in May (good); poor run over C&D (good to soft) latest. |

10st 2lb |
Four 1m2f wins (three on soft) in 2023 but she ran moderately last year on both races on heavy; not seen this year until August and uncompetitive both starts, with minimal response from the handicapper, so others are preferred. |

Been lightly raced throughout his career, only running 15 times, and returns from a year off this afternoon; has his conditions but that's usually been the case since he last ran well more than three years ago and it's hard to know what he's capable of now. |

5th Nov 2022 Heavy 1m 3f 197y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Thrown in if judged on his performances in two major 1m4f handicaps on soft in summer 2020 but he did not fire last season, mostly also on soft (unraced on heavy) and that includes when blinkers were given a go in this race; not seen since, so a great deal has to be taken on trust, but he had an excellent record earlier in career after lengthy breaks. |
