15th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't had much go right in his last two starts and is best known for his Polytrack exploits, as when successful off 4lb higher at Kempton (1m3f) in April; finished second of 14 over this C&D as a 3yo, though, so certainly one to be interested in. |

2nd Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
All three wins have been on Polytrack and last two have been off higher marks over C&D; has mixed record since his last success in April but he was creditable fourth of 13 here last time and has claims if he can built on that. |
6/1 |

Not far behind Ludo's Landing at Beverley before a poor show at Epsom (soft); now 0-13 on turf but he's 3-12 on the AW and that includes a C&D success; nothing wrong with his mark. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 2f 2y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Sole Flat win (31 attempts) was debut in 2020; had two hurdle wins (2m5f and 2m4f) in 2025 and there have been bits of chase form in recent months; visor returning instead of blinkers might possibly help, but there are more likely candidates. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Flat/hurdles winner; ran encouragingly on his return to chasing but has failed to back up that effort in two starts since, taking record in this sphere to 0-8; admittedly well treated on best form. |

Fairly useful at up to 1m4f on the Flat, winning two of his 16 races, but he makes this hurdling debut following two poor shows on Flat in August; wore cheekpieces latest and bled from the nose. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His last win was two years ago but he's been placed in all three runs this season including close calls over C&D (good to firm) and at Ffos Las (1m2f, good); remains well handicapped on his old form and he should make another bold bid. |
3/1 |

2nd 5 (8) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Registered his last win off 1lb higher at Windsor a year ago; consistent since, mostly making the frame; successful in two of his last three attempts in Class 5; solid claims back down in grade. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Seemingly aided by new tongue-tie since the summer, most notably when keeping on well to score at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) 11 days ago; also suited by 2m but recent 5lb rise might leave him vulnerable in this competitive race. |
9/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Posted sound effort when second at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month but has modest strike-rate in recent years and probably won't be favoured by the forecast rain here; others have more pressing claims. |
8/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Hasn't threatened on the Flat on last two starts but this course winner didn't run badly when mid-division in a higher grade than this over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m, good) last month and today's step back up in trip is well worth a go for one who stays 1m6f on the Flat; interesting. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Acts on good to firm and good to soft; respectable third off this mark at Sandown (1m6f) most recently; has form figures of 113 over this C&D and holds a solid chance back here. |

Creditable third twice in May; form dipped when he tried front-running on latest start (had a good record at Goodwood before that) and it had looked as if 1m6f-2m was more his thing these days. |

Hasn't been seen in going on two years (has been dropped 5lb and gelded in the interim); made the running more than once and should be able to get his own way against several hold-up performers if that's the plan; the market will give some clues. |
