4lb higher than for his latest determined success at Southwell (6f; form looks solid) but that still leaves him extremely well treated on his 2023 best; the one to beat. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just two Tapeta runs, winning the latest at Newcastle (7f) last January; treading water for much of 2023 but down in the weights and his recent second at Chelmsford (7f; short-priced favourite) was a lot better; can be effective back at 6f but this is a quick return for one who regularly has breaks between races. |

9th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Three 1m Polytrack wins since November, the latest in a small-field C&D claimer six weeks ago; more needed back in a handicap but he's not ruled out; cheekpieces left off today. |

1st 4 (1) |
30th May 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

Front-runner; wore cheekpieces on last five starts, including three good runs (one 1m win) on Chelmsford Polytrack this February-April but below form there on latest outing; made less of an impact early in 2024 on his two runs here; wore a hood earlier in career and it's now restored; considered. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Has won on turf but better on the AW and may have needed it at Wetherby last time after a break (and wind surgery); perhaps more effective at 6f, though. |

15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |

Expertly placed to reel off a seven-timer on AW earlier in the year; winning spree came to an end at Wolverhampton in March and he returns to turf (1-13) off a tough mark. |
10/1 |

6th 1 (1) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Made it an amazing seven wins for the year, all from the front, over C&D on Friday; subsequent 1lb rise and 4lb penalty sees him still just below his highest successful mark and there's every chance he can complete a two-month eight-timer. |
7/4 |

1st 1 (2) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
He was recording his 11th course win when making all in a Class 5 over C&D ten days ago, completing a six-timer in the process; 1lb well in under his penalty, well drawn and dropping in grade, so a seven-timer is beckoning. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who needs to produce more than he's managed the last twice but before those he was a creditable fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not written off. |
14/1 |

5th 1 (8) |
18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last month and ran well enough to think he's still in reasonable form when fifth in a higher grade than this at Haydock last time; in the mix. |
15/2 |

6th 10 (2) |
28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last weekend which gives him a fighting chance here but he has a better overall record on that track than this one and remains on much the same mark as when well adrift of Trilby here in April. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ended a long losing run in this race last year but he's 0-15 since and has been hard to predict; now 3lb lower than for that last success but he faded at Doncaster last time and he comes with risks attached. |
11/2 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a losing run when the comfortable winner of a 5f handicap at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark; he was returning from a short break when fourth of 13 at Pontefract 17 days ago and that effort can be upgraded as he was wider than ideal as the field turned for home; each-way shout. |
8/1 |

4th 14 (5) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Hold-up sprinter who is on the same mark as when seeing off nine rivals at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm); in and out afterwards but the return of blinkers should help now back from 138 days off. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Thriving at present, winning five of his last six starts, including one over this C&D; those wins have all been in Class 6 company and he is now up in grade under a 4lb penalty (6lb well in) for last week's Brighton win but there's a chance he could get his own way in front. |
7/2 |

1st 1 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Is in cracking form at present, winning four of his last five starts, two of which have been over C&D; saddled with a 4lb penalty for his win at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) last Thursday, this trailblazer will take some catching. |
11/4 |
|
1st 3 (5) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Front-runner who is thriving at present and won three of his last four starts, two of them over 7f at Brighton and the other at Bath over 5.5f; ran another solid race at the former track on Tuesday and can go well again. |

9st 11lb |
Got off the mark on turf at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) in June off 1lb lower mark when making all; he had to use up energy to lead from a wide stall and didn't have much left once headed when fifth at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) nine days ago; chance if able to dominate from the front. |
8/1 |

25th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Free-going front-runner who has won three times this year, most recently here (7.4f, good to firm) in June; suffered worrying dip in form afterwards but steadied the ship with respectable fourth at Epsom (7f, good) last week and will be fine over today's trip; no surprise if he makes a bold bid. |
8/1 |

4th 3 (1) |
16th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |

Triple all-the-way winner already in 2024 and perfectly drawn to attack this time, but can sometimes prove too free for his own good and hasn't beaten anything home since the most recent success; risks attached. |
