Completed an AW five-timer for David Simcock early in 2024 before adding further AW success at Southwell in October (1m); first two runs for this yard promising but last two over contrasting trips weren't; opposable. |

Completed an AW five-timer for David Simcock early in 2024 before adding further AW success at Southwell in October (1m); first two runs for this yard full of promise; found 7f too sharp last time; not discounted. |

Completed an AW five-timer for David Simcock in early 2024 and continued to run well before adding a further AW success at Southwell in October (1m); pleasing start for this yard when third over 1m at this venue; ran over 1m4f last time; will probably find a few too quick over 7f. |

9st 9lb |
Won a similar race at Southwell in January; best effort since when third of 14 at Newcastle 19 days ago (1m; blinkered first time); a danger to all if the headgear works so well a second time. |
5/1 |

26th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Not at the top of his game on his last three starts but two were on turf (on which he's 0-15) and he was forced wide at Wolverhampton in between; this six-time AW winner (including twice here) is on a handy mark and is not discounted now back on AW in first-time blinkers. |
10/1 |

12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |

All six wins on AW and he ran poorly when last seen on turf at Beverley (8.5f, good) in April; wasn't beaten far on AW at Wolverhampton (8.5f) since but others preferred on return to grass. |

Won 7f Southwell classified in January and is also suited by this C&D but his recent efforts have been disappointing and his overall profile is not persuasive. |

In good form early in the year but ran poorly behind two of these over C&D 11 days ago; is some way down the pecking order from another wide stall. |

Consecutive course wins in the autumn, over the extended 1m and this trip; ran well in defeat subsequently but he was way off his game when a remote sixth behind Distinction over C&D before Christmas. |

Unplaced in 13 attempts over a variety of trips; slipping to a workable mark but others push stronger claims, particularly after he was last of eight over C&D in the 8.30 yesterday. |

First-time cheekpieces seemed to help when fourth of 11 over 1m4f here last month but upping him to 2m wasn't the answer next time and he didn't do enough over C&D since to think this is his trip either; work to do. |

1st Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Course regular who has dropped 1lb lower than when making all over C&D (good) in April; far from disgraced when fourth of 12 back here (good) last month; has form on a soft surface; shortlisted. |

14th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Dominated from the front over C&D (good) off today's mark for Stan Moore in April but not quite in that same form on any of three starts for current stable; others have more pressing claims. |
