26th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Five most recent wins on AW and he doesn't run much on turf these days, the losing run going back nearly six years; has plenty to find after a weak effort back on grass at Nottingham this month. |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
8lb lower than when twice runner-up on the Wolverhampton Tapeta (8.6f/9.5f) early last year, but is now 0-15 and has never tackled this far before; others preferred. |

9st 13lb |
14-race maiden; not beaten far at Lingfield (1m2f) this month, his second run after a layoff, and now 7lb lower than when going close over C&D in March 2024; not ruled out. |

Largely consistent on AW since rejoining this stable; has frame possibilities, provided he continues in the same vein, but doesn't look the likeliest winner; 0-19 on turf. |

13th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
His heyday was two winters back but he still won last July (1m1f on turf) and is often thereabouts, including on Tapeta; not totally ruled out despite the 106-day absence. |
10/1 |

18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a sixth success when winning a 12-runner handicap at Redcar (1m1f, good to soft) in July; kept at in when fourth at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) under a penalty six days later and excuses both starts since; very much respected. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 (9) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Has won three times over 7f here; best run this year when winning over 1m1f at Redcar three runs back; stamina to prove on first run at 1m4f (can pull hard). |

Five-time winner on AW at Wolverhampton but 0-16 on turf; handicapper's giving him a chance and, while recent efforts don't suggest he'll take it, he did run well both previous visits here. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring at Wolverhampton (9.4f; first-time cheekpieces) last month and he followed up with a dominant display on his return visit two weeks later; 7lb higher here but he remains well handicapped on his old form including a win over C&D; key player. |
11/4 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Caught the eye on penultimate start; justified market support over C&D subsequently (in newly applied cheekpieces), that his first win since September 2023; a 4lb rise looks fair, so he's entitled to be on the premises assuming the headgear continues to have the desired effect. |
2/1 |

1st 6 (6) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
No win since September 2023 (1m, Kempton; from 9lb higher); caught the eye making late headway (sixth; 16-1) over 8.5f here seven weeks ago; interesting to see if added cheekpieces can instigate a revival; market helpful. |

Four wins at Wolverhampton include this race (off 1lb higher) last year; not solid on recent form but is interesting returned to this venue and back down in grade (3-5 in Class 6). |
