11th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Should be well treated but he hasn't offered a great deal since January; this trip perhaps more suitable than the 5.7f he tackled at Bath on his return from a break four weeks ago; still looks opposable. |

All wins on AW and his best turf form has come on good ground; lowly mark but others have more compelling claims. |

3rd Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four wins on the AW and 8lb lower than for the latest; promising return when beaten under a length into third of six at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in January, but hasn't built on it; switch to blinkers needs to have a positive effect. |

Record of 3-11 for current connections features a C&D win; placed at Kempton last week despite the race not going smoothly for her; enters the reckoning. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won three of her first nine starts for Mick Appleby; a particularly slow start cost her dear when fourth to Maids Head at Chelmsford last time (sent off favourite, perhaps as she was unpenalised for winning an apprentice contest); 2lb higher here. |

21st Feb 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Doesn't look the easiest ride but he could still be learning; went down by a nose over C&D in January and again found one too good when he wore first-time cheekpieces (retained) under Hollie Doyle at Lingfield 13 days ago; should be involved. |
11/2 |

2nd 10 (10) |
8th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Only had the six races and gave it a good go from the front at Kempton (7f); now 3lb higher and has a tricky draw to contend with if he's intending to lead; tries cheekpieces. |
8/1 |

2nd 6 (6) |
22nd Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Five-race maiden; not beaten entirely by 1m trip at Southwell most recently; ran encouragingly over 7f at Chelmsford earlier in December and that promise gives cause for optimism. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Fine on Tapeta but all his wins have come on Polytrack, including twice last spring at Chelmsford; still dangerous when dipping into this company but he's unpredictable now and 7f round here is enough of a test. |
7/1 |
|
11th 12 (2) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Capable on his day and 1lb below his last winning mark, but now at the veteran stage and recent form has an uneven look to it; others more compelling. |
40/1 |
|
6th 7 (8) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Two C&D wins; has been racing over 7f, a rival forcing a dead-heat off this mark at Chelmsford last May, but he had won over 6f there last March; finished a fair runner-up when making the running again here last month but likely more needed for the win. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Races mainly on AW where he has six wins; 1-15 in this sphere and may be worth waiting until he returns to AW. |
11/2 |

3rd 3 (7) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent spell under Ryan Kavanagh during the winter but resumes from a short break still on a career-high mark as a result (3lb above his highest successful rating); more likely than most to give his running, though, possibly from the front again. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Dual course winner who has been running well since landing a handicap at Lingfield (1m, AW) in November; can go well again. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Very productive on AW this year and also scored over hurdles in the spring; suffered a heavy defeat on most recent attempt in this sphere but remains well treated judged on Flat form. |
7/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won a maiden at Huntingdon (2m, good) in May on third hurdle start and scored on the Flat at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) four weeks ago; in view of his Flat ability he has potential off this opening hurdle mark. |
100/30 |

1st 1 (6) |
30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Resurgent on AW in early part of this year, winning six times including over C&D; opened hurdling account in May and he had an excuse on slow ground when returned to the Flat at Hamilton in June; now drops back in grade after a break and he needs a close look returned to AW. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His form can be up and down and he failed to shine at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time; however, prior to that he was a promising fourth on his reappearance there (7f, AW), and he won off this mark at Chepstow (7f, good) last May; capable if bouncing back to form. |
12/1 |

7th 8 (7) |
8th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Dual course winner (7f/8.6f) who was returning from six months off when beaten 2l into fourth of eight behind Bad Habits over here 17 days ago; could fare better in returning blinkers this time. |
10/1 |

4th 1 (5) |

Two course wins, including when running on well over this trip (Class 6 classified; 9-4 favourite) last March; now rated 1lb lower than when fourth over C&D (25-1) last October; market should guide on seasonal return. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Three wins (1m) in 2024 but he's been well held in last ten starts including when fourth behind Desiderata at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) last month; that wasn't bad but he needs to raise his game back in a handicap. |
20/1 |

4th 11 (7) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 1m scorer in 2024 but only poor form of late and he was soon ridden when fourth of six in 7f Chelmsford handicap in January; he needs to take a step forward. |
16/1 |

4th 6 (1) |

Won three times over 1m in 2024, including over C&D; third at Southwell (1m, AW) last April but he's not been in the same form in four starts since; drops back to 7f and others are preferred. |

Inconsistent sort with a record of 1-27 but his win was on Polytrack (7f) last autumn and he finished a fair fourth at Chelmsford (5f, AW) last Thursday; was well backed into 6-1 for that race and he could be dangerous back up in trip. |
