9th Nov 2024 Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Completed hat-trick in Newmarket handicap (1m4f, good) in May, the first two legs having come on heavy ground; well beaten in a Royal Ascot handicap, a Group 2 and a Listed race on his last three outings and he needs a career best to win this. |

25th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Made all for a comfortable success off 7lb lower at Nottingham (1m2f) this month, taking her form figures in heavy-ground handicaps to 121; big player granted similar conditions. |

9th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Well suited by soft/heavy and her Pontefract win in April (1m) was after a break, so a three-month absence is of no concern; stays this far and is not dismissed. |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Won handicap at York (1m2f, good to soft; probably acts on soft) in July; good second in Listed races there (1m2f/1m4f, good to firm) on next two starts, before disappointing favourite at Yarmouth latest; needs to resume improvement now she's returned to a handicap. |

Won 15-runner handicap at York (1m2f, good to soft) in July; runner-up in Listed races there (1m2f/1m4f, good to firm) in both starts since, no match for the winner when favourite last time but she's on the up and has each-way claims again. |

9th Nov 2024 Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Held up; in fine form on soft/heavy ground this autumn and strong-finishing third of 17 at this track two weeks ago showed he is capable of better still, as he met plenty of trouble in running; entire handicap career (14 races) has been spent at about 1m2f and he's not at all sure to get 1m4f on pedigree, but he's shaping as if the new trip is well worth a shot. |

9th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Gained his first win in handicaps over 1m4f here six days ago; has a 5lb penalty but scored readily there, so he is a major player despite the drop back in trip. |

3rd Jan 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Returned from break with three pretty good 1m2f runs towards end of last year, most recently when third at Newcastle three weeks ago, and this move back up in trip is probably in his favour; likely contender. |

Fourth of 17 in a 0-105 C&D handicap two runs back and didn't get the best of runs at Southwell next time; handicapped to go well and soft ground is fine. |

28th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Win and a close second to his name from four runs over C&D and returns to Tapeta on a career-low mark following a patchy turf campaign; can pull hard and will need some luck from a wide stall in first-time cheekpieces but he's potentially well treated. |
