9st 0lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who bids for a hat-trick after winning at Southwell (1m6f, Tapeta) and over C&D in January (first two clear); up another 7lb, but he remains open to further progress; major player. |

Low-mileage son of Golden Horn who got off the mark in 1m6f Southwell handicap 19 days ago, showing a good attitude to edge out De Vega's Warrior; meets that rival on 1lb worse terms now but this step up in trip will suit; big shout. |

15th Feb 2024 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Hold-up performer with a poor strike-rate; close fifth at Kempton (2m) last time in a race that wasn't run to suit and the prospect of another steady pace reduces his appeal. |
7/2 |
|
5th 1 (10) |
27th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |

Hold-up performer who is hard to win with (4-44) and needs everything to fall right, which didn't happen when a never-dangerous third at Southwell last month; capable but not without risk. |

12th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins were over 1m4f on Wolverhampton AW, the latest in January; close third of seven over C&D (good) on latest start, which was only her third run on turf; remote when out of her depth on heavy, her only run on softer than good; place chance (like most of these) if the ground is okay. |
10/1 |

3rd 1 (5) |
4th May 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |

Recorded her second AW win when scoring at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) in January but she was only fourth of six at Newcastle last time and was beaten 4l; bit to prove again after that and she's struggled in both previous runs on turf. |

Hurdles record of 5-32 includes wins over 3m on good ground at Wetherby in October and Haydock latest start; holding his form well and is better than ever; may remain competitive. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Running well at present and he followed a Wetherby win (3m) in October with a solid third at Bangor (2m7f, also good), despite giving Joe Anderson a workout, 12 days later; has form on soft and is one to consider. |
8/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

Arguably posted career-best performance when winning at Warwick (3m, good) 12 days ago, but is 6lb higher in a stronger race and not always one to rely upon; others appeal more. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 2m 0f 32y Class 5 |

A six-time winner but a 9yo now and has been absent since finishing second over hurdles in March 2025; probably best watched. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
21st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won over C&D in December and by 16l at Newcastle (extended 2m4f) in February, both from the front on good to soft; disappointing in his two runs in between and again on latest start but he was brought out quickly under a penalty in the latter; visor replaces his usual cheekpieces. |
14/1 |

20th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won at Musselburgh (3m) in December and by 16l at Newcastle (extended 2m4f) last Thursday, both from the front on good to soft; disappointing in his two runs in between but he'd have a huge chance under this penalty if that form from last week (a narrow career best) is repeated. |

Ran well when beaten just over a length into third of nine behind a couple of these over C&D in January; given a short break since and can go well fresh, but he is now 0-24 and others look a bit more solid. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 6 (9) |
16th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |

23-race maiden; wasn't beaten far (1.75l) when fourth to today's rival Spirit Of Ash over C&D in November, and meets that mare on improved terms if factoring in the 7lb claim of Tom Kiely-Marshall; latest effort excusable (1m6f), so isn't a forlorn hope from a career-low mark. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four-time Polytrack winner who came back to form last time and is 2lb lower than when last successful (turf) last summer; often fluffs the start and is usually held up, so the bigger field won't hurt; one to consider. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (4) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Turf wins at 1m6f (good to soft) and 2m (good); quite well treated now and his AW reappearance was encouraging but he didn't fare so well back on turf in June and it's two years since he was risked on good to firm ground. |
8/1 |

Ex-Irish, longstanding maiden who fared better at Sedgefield last Friday (first-time visor; has worn cheekpieces) despite again not jumping well; this mark should be within range when she puts in a decent round. |
