Gained two front-running 5f wins for Archie Watson last year but hasn't beaten a rival in two outings for current yard; cheekpieces failed to stop the slide last time; others preferred. |

13th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win a 6f maiden at Wolverhampton in November; yet to show comparable form in handicaps and the addition of cheekpieces needs to give her a lift. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all in a Wolverhampton maiden (6f, Tapeta) in November but she's been disappointing in two handicaps there since and was beaten 10l after a slow start last time; still has potential after only four runs but she needs to get her career back on track. |
8/1 |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Clearly best effort when making all over C&D in November; there were excuses on her nursery debut here on Boxing Day (dropped back to 5f; drawn wide) and she may still have untapped potential back at 6f; not ruled out. |

21st Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Eight-race maiden whose last two 6f efforts suggest this drop in trip is well worth exploring; front-running third at Wolverhampton latest; could well make a bold bid off reduced mark. |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All runs at 6f, pick of his form on debut; unplaced in three nurseries towards end of 2023, favourite at Newcastle (raced freely, faded) four weeks ago; slowly slipping in the weights but needs to return to his best. |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Reliable as a 2yo, winning Bath maiden in September and running creditably after three months off when fourth in nursery here on Boxing Day; both those runs were over 5f but he stays 6f well; unlikely to be far away. |
7/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
26th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Was on the go early and fully exposed now (at 5f-1m); stiff 5f was fine when off the mark at Bath in the autumn but this will be more about speed and he's some way down the pecking order back from three months off. |

Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |

28th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
He's fully 14lb lower than when winning at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) last June but hasn't been shaping of late as though he's about to capitalise on his reduced mark; soundly beaten fourth here (6f, good) last time. |
6/1 |

14th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Now 13lb lower than for his Hamilton win (6f, good to firm) last June but he's been well held in all four runs this season; won't mind if the forecast rain arrives but losing run is up to 12 and this looks a tough task against Novamay; cheekpieces removed. |

26th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |

Now 10lb below the mark he defied over C&D last June but recent efforts don't obviously suggest he's ready to take advantage. |

23rd Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Ran well at Wolverhampton in November (second run) but he's failed to build on it since, beaten double-digit distances in two handicaps; tongue-tie now given a go. |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
A fourth over C&D in November stands out from the rest of his runs like a sore thumb; blinkers failed to help at Newcastle between Christmas and New Year and have been quickly discarded; others are more solid. |
20/1 |
|
3 (6) |
28th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Easily his best run was the middle of his three, in a 6f maiden at Wolverhampton last month on which he's not badly handicapped; needs to tap back into that promise now handicapping and perhaps the blinkers will work. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Triple course winner who scored at Wolverhampton in March and she's gone close back at this track (5f/5,6f, firm) in last two runs; only 1lb higher than for her runner-up effort three weeks ago and she should make another bold bid. |
15/8 |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Triple C&D winner (good to firm/firm) who won on her reappearance at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) last month; bounced back from a lesser effort with a good run here over 5f on Monday; leading contender. |

4th 2 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |

Has plenty of Bath form but mostly over the extended 5f, including three wins; below par returned to this venue last time after two sound AW performances at Wolverhampton. |
