15th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Placed off 13lb higher over C&D (good to soft) on seasonal debut in September but ended 2024 with some lesser efforts and he was tailed off after a 102-day break here last month; first-time visor swiftly ditched. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Arrested decline when third in first-time blinkers at Perth (3m, good) last month but this 12yo remains without a win since 2023 and it's hard to tell whether the new headgear will continue to have a positive effect. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Second of four on stable debut here last May (3m2f, good); hasn't run quite as well since but is now on a career-low mark; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Returned from layoff with quite encouraging C&D fourth (albeit well held in the end) on soft ground last month but is getting long in the tooth and today's faster ground is probably not in his favour; headgear refitted. |

5th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Sole win (28 races) came when dead-heating in a C&D handicap (good) in 2022; well supported when a good third over 3m2f at this track (good; beaten 2l) last month; should give a good account back in distance. |

5th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Sole win (27 races) was at this track in September 2022; chance on some 2023 form but she needs better than on last five outings if she's to win and there are stamina doubts judged on three attempts at about 3m. |

17th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

1-26; taking in a first 0-120 since her November 2021 handicap debut and does so from 13lb out of the weights; surely too big an ask. |

Both wins early in 2023; last season was disappointing but he's since had wind surgery (second time) and is 3lb below his last winning mark. |

Not as good as he was and when backed at Wincanton (3m, good) a month ago he was found wanting when it mattered; has become very difficult to win with but should still be involved. |

27th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
His last three wins have been over fences but he's a four-time hurdle winner who can deal with this mark if ready to go after his absence; seems fine on all ground. |

20th Nov 2023 Soft 2m 4f 114y Class 5 |

Last three wins have been over fences but it was over C&D when beaten 3l two weeks ago (good to soft), having fared best of those held up; considered. |

Seemingly back in good form when second at Worcester (2m4f, good to soft) in August but didn't fire at Sedgefield last month and he's probably best suited by good ground (albeit has won on heavy). |

Proved he retains a modicum of ability when 40-1 third here (3m2f, good to soft) in May but was pulled up on all three subsequent appearances; 3lb wrong today; too risky. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Below best on soft two starts ago but he showed tenacity when hanging on to his lead at Huntingdon (3m, good) last month under Rian Corcoran; back up 2lb but he can find further mild improvement; respected. |

1st 4 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Made the breakthrough in a first-time visor when scoring at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) in December and he followed up at Taunton (about 3m2f, good) at the end of that month; last of three finishers when up in grade on soft ground at Doncaster in January but good chance he can bounce back in this company on the forecast sounder surface. |
10/11 |
|
3rd 6 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Has improved all of a sudden since fitted with this headgear, winning Class 5s at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) and Taunton (3m2f, good); up another 8lb for last time but he had them well strung out and he's receiving plenty of weight from his rivals. |
