21st Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Well-placed this winter to record wins over this trip at Wolverhampton and Chelmsford; excuses on last two runs; too keen and returned lame when well held at Newcastle, met interference at Dundalk. |

Well-placed this winter to record wins over this trip at Wolverhampton and Chelmsford; too keen and returned lame when well held at Newcastle latest so that run probably best ignored. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Three-time course winner but last season ended on a low note and he was tailed off here on last month's return, albeit on ground faster than ideal. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Three-time C&D winner, most recently last May; absent since two disappointing runs here last August, though, and would appeal more on good or slower ground. |

1st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins this season, the latter from the front over C&D (good to soft) in May; also suited by good to firm ground and last month's down-the-field finish here can be excused (stumbled leaving stalls) but others in this line-up look better handicapped; finished last of 13 in first-time visor here yesterday. |

awkward start, towards rear, hung right and dropped to last over 1f out |

13th Apr 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Record over C&D reads 133 and her latest third of six behind The Defiant here (first-time blinkers) was even better than it looked with the blindfold being removed late; down another 1lb but the draw hasn't been kind; no headgear today. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Consistent on turf from 6f to 1m this year; clung on by a head to land fifth win at Gowran Park (7f, good) nine days ago when well placed; should be in the mix off 5lb higher. |

1st 2 (14) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Four-time winner but last win came in a claimer in 2024; some satisfactory efforts this season and the best of them came last time at Leopardstown (7f, good) when taking the runner-up spot; in the mix. |
7/1 |

2nd 7 (11) |
16th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y |

Last win came in a 1m Killarney claimer in 2024; fifth in a claimer last time at Bellewstown, only 24 hours after finishing fourth in a handicap at the same venue; overall handicap form has been satisfactory; needs to raise his game |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won on the Rowley Mile in May (6f, good; 4lb lower) and last time finished sixth of 26 at Glorious Goodwood, which wasn't a bad run; usually ridden from behind so needs a strong pace which he might get. |

C&D winner on good to firm last year; bounced back to form to win over 6f on the Rowley course here (good) in May; a lesser effort over C&D has followed but a revival isn't ruled out. |

9st 9lb |
Comes into this in red-hot form having won his last five starts on the AW, the latest when dead-heating with Recon Mission at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) 11 days ago; meets him on the same terms and has winning form over C&D, so hard to rule out despite a 7lb higher mark and rise in grade. |

Got up close home to beat four of these rivals over C&D nine days ago, completing a four-timer; thriving and warrants respect. |
