17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Had a question mark over the return to 1m at Salisbury recently and his third there was a remote one; had been in good form for this yard previously, winning in good style under William Pearman at Chepstow (1m2f) in June and then over 1m4f at Catterick; all three AW wins have come on Polytrack but he ran respectably in one previous C&D attempt; solid chance. |

21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Won two of his four starts (1m2f-1m4f) since joining Tony Carroll, including for today's rider; dropping back to 1m not sure to play to his strengths though. |
8/1 |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop and he made it 2-3 for current yard when landing novice amateurs' race at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up another 2lb but remains well treated on his old form, and four of his wins have come over this trip; leading contender. |

23rd Nov 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Comparatively exposed, with record only 1-14, and has edged up the weights; however, he's in good form having gone close in three of his last four outings, latest at Chelmsford (1m2f); could go well again. |

27th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Consistent since blinkers went on and will be 3lb higher from tomorrow for last Monday's Kempton near-miss (one of three to come away despite edging left); can miss the break and pull hard but could well get this run to suit, so needs considering. |

9st 10lb |
Showed some improvement on her most recent start, when trying to make all and finishing over 3l fifth at Bath (1m, good to soft); initial mark a bit stiff based on that but there could be improvement to come over this new trip; interesting. |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Raced exclusively over 1m2f this year and has come 9lb down the weights; has hung left more than once and first-time headgear will need to prove the answer if she's to make it 12th time lucky. |
12/1 |

Ten-race maiden who isn't improving but her third at Brighton (1m2f, good) in April showed she may be capable of picking something up. |

9th Sep 2024 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Placed in low-grade handicaps on the Flat and bettered his disappointing hurdle debut when ridden much more positively at Uttoxeter (2m, good; first-time visor) in July, finishing third behind Torrent; has a fighting chance if he handles the slower ground. |
9/1 |

3rd 12 |
28th Jul 2024 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Modest maiden on the Flat; should have the stamina for hurdling but was tailed off at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) on first attempt at this discipline; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor. |

25th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |

No wins in 11 on the Flat but mostly consistent and he stayed 1m4f; could make a hurdler. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Tended to be all or nothing under both codes when last seen; entitled to need this after more than a year off (first Flat run in going on two years) and Nelson Gate looks his yard's best chance. |
14/1 |

6th 5 |
14th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Best on the Flat at around 1m2f and his two wins over hurdles came over 2m round undemanding courses; stamina would be a concern then for a yard also responsible for Aggagio and Galactic Jack. |
6/1 |
|
5th 7 |
9th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Dictated a modest pace when just holding on over 2m here (soft) a fortnight ago, for which he's gone up only 3lb; it remains to be seen whether he'll get this far as he's bred for the Flat. |

29th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Won two classified events earlier this year, over C&D in January and at Lingfield the following month; hasn't been in quite such good form since. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner (8.4f/1m) in this grade at start of this year; ran as though something was amiss when back on turf last month but has possibilities if back on song. |
11/1 |
|
11th 11 (2) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Both turf wins have been at 1m on good to firm; has won twice in blinkers on AW this year; although not in top form last twice, these conditions are ideal and could go well on this return to turf. |
