20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
7-24 with his last win coming when joined on the line at Ripon (1m, good; 3-1 favourite) in April 2025; struggled on AW through the winter (0-4), and was pestered for the lead, weakening to finish fifth (beaten 8l), at Ripon five weeks ago; an easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Dead-heated over C&D (good) last April and went very close at Carlisle in June; well handicapped on that form but a long way below his best on AW this year; the return to turf needs to trigger a major revival. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Two C&D wins on his record but he has finished down the field in three runs back from a break this year; only dropped 3lb for those defeats and he may need some more help from the handicapper. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
His sole win was 13 months ago but he's placed in last three runs and his second at Catterick (1m4f) last time was behind a rival who was completing a hat-trick; now drops back to 1m but he's versatile trip-wise and is effective on Tapeta; shortlisted. |

Saddle slipped when pulled up last time; best form on the AW and hasn't been running well enough before that to suggest he can take this. |

Ran well on AW as recently as last November and he's tumbled down the weights since, but for good reason; needs to get back on track. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
0-9 on AW; reportedly benefited from removal of blinkers with narrow win at Pontefract (1m4f; front pair clear) a fortnight ago but underwhelmed over 1m2f (also good to soft) at Redcar on Saturday; step back up to this trip should help. |

9st 6lb |
Reportedly benefited from removal of blinkers when returning to form with narrow win at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; front pair clear) nine days ago; recent 4lb rise is manageable and the forecast overnight rain will be very much in his favour. |

1-18; respectable effort when fourth in first-time blinkers at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) in May but was beaten 12l, when things didn't go his way, in amateur riders' handicap at Newcastle (AW) next time; weakened a long way from home on his return at Doncaster 11 days ago. |

Contested his third handicap (second since gelded) when leading early and strong at the finish to get off the mark over 1m2f at Lingfield (AW) in March; had turf form last season but tailed off when front-running at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago; needs overall improvement. |

Sole win from 15 starts came in a 6f maiden at Chelmsford when trained by Alice Haynes in 2023; beaten 18l when last of six here last time (1m); down into a classified race but with enough to prove. |

29th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-6 in Ireland last year for John McConnell; sold for 1,000gns in December; has poor claims on balance of form and, upped markedly in distance, looks a doubtful stayer on breeding. |

22nd Nov 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
8st 9lb |
First of her two nursery outings was respectable, fifth of 11 at Gowran despite meeting some trouble in running; hard to fancy after moderate Galway run, though perhaps the addition of a tongue-tie will help. |
