8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Three wins for two previous yards and the first for this one when winning narrowly at Newmarket (6f, good) in September, following a protracted slog with the runner-up; comes here fit from the AW but he'll need a bit extra to win in a higher grade than at Newmarket. |

Disappointing at Newcastle in January; had earlier dug deep to win a Newmarket handicap (6f, good) on his final 4yo outing; third in this race 12 months ago and can't be discounted. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Only won one of his last 25 starts and regressed last year; now 11lb lower than when beaten a nose over C&D last spring but there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh; others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |

3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Struggled on his last four starts but he has dropped 9lb as a result; fully effective around here and he's likely to bounce back soon; 7f perhaps his optimum trip though. |

Defied a higher mark at Glorious Goodwood last season and placed a few times on AW this year (up to April); not in top form since returning from a break and needs to stage a revival. |

Rated considerably higher this time 12 months ago but he's down in the weights as a result of some modest runs since March; returning to 6f not enough to tempt this time. |

9st 2lb |
Three wins in Britain at 5f (twice on AW); placed at Lingfield over the winter before being bought for 14,000gns in February; dropped out quickly after forcing pace on yard debut in Naas handicap last month on soft; probably best watched for now. |

21st Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Looked an exciting prospect when winning two Tapeta handicaps (5f) this winter; possible to excuse his three defeats since (poorly drawn first two and then ended up in the middle of the track at Epsom three weeks ago); has something to prove on fast ground but it's unlikely this mark will be beyond him; usual cheekpieces are back on after one go in blinkers. |
33/1 |

7th 2 (12) |
1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Looked a sprinter going places in the winter, coming from off pace to win at Wolverhampton and Southwell, and although unplaced twice since there have been excuses; now drops back to 5f (3-3 at the trip) and wears blinkers instead of cheekpieces; should be suited by a well-run race; interesting. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Very useful juvenile/3yo for Roger Varian; hasn't progressed and plenty to prove after some modest efforts this year, including back on turf at Thirsk last time (6f, good). |
12/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

8lb lower than for his Newcastle third in December (6f) but that hasn't been a springboard to better things; hopes rest on the return to turf perking him up. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Close third over 6f here in December and now 6lb lower; however, four lesser performances have followed and the return to 7f is of dubious benefit, with his three wins having been at 6f. |

All five wins have been on turf, rattling up a three-timer in October 2024; it's been downhill since and while cheekpieces replace usual blinkers, he makes little appeal here. |

28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Finished second here just before Christmas but over 6f; struggled since, including over C&D latest; Sedgemoor is the more obvious of the stable pair. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Currently 2-3 on Tapeta but he's generally struggled since leaving Karl Burke, his only win coming when allowed his own way in a small field last summer (been dropped in lately); the first-time tongue-tie will need to make a difference. |
14/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
5-24; hit by the handicapper after making all at Yarmouth (6f, good) last June, and has taken a while to come back down the weights (now 3lb below that winning mark); posted low-key seasonal reappearance at Leicester; cheekpieces introduced seeking more. |
25/1 |

11 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Scored off 3lb higher at Yarmouth (6f, good) last June but he's not come close to that form since and was seventh of nine on Leicester reappearance last month; plenty to prove and four of his five wins were as 2yo; cheekpieces added. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Picked up for 4,000gns from the Hannon yard last autumn after breaking a blood-vessel for the second time in four runs; not much luck and maybe fresh is the time to catch him, going in a first-time hood, but the stiff 6f is a concern (most starts at 5f). |

2nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Travelled well but found little for pressure here 11 days ago (5f, good); that was after three months off and he lurks on a dangerous mark; fine on soft. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

9st 9lb |
Three turf wins at 5f and 6f, the latest off this mark in September; big prices and well held in four sprints here for new yard and, although this is a drop in grade, he may be best left until back on grass. |
14/1 |

7th 7 (2) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Three turf wins but 0-9 on AW and he's been well held here (5f/6f) in all three runs for current yard; continues to drop down the weights but this is competitive and others are more convincing; reapplied cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Captured this prize last year and largely in good form after, despite his customary slow starts; should strip sharper for his reappearance sixth in 5f Newmarket handicap 17 days ago so he's no forlorn hope in refitted cheekpieces. |
8/1 |

6th 2 (9) |
14th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Strong traveller who can be slowly away; first handicap win when beating Existent at Goodwood (5f, good) last May; treading water during the summer but he did well when a close third of 21 from a tough draw in the Portland (extended 5f, good) in September and a subsequent Ascot defeat by a well-treated rival was another solid run given the race didn't go his way; claims. |
5/1 |
|
5 (7) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Just two wins to his name but he has plenty of ability and comes here in top form, most recently coming from well back to snatch second at Ascot three weeks ago (5f, soft); slow starts are a thorn in his side but no surprise to see him arriving on the scene late; new visor replaces cheekpieces. |
