15th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice this year, over 7.5f at Beverley (soft) and 1m at Carlisle (good); heavy defeats the last twice but he has his sights lowered here with cheekpieces added. |

8st 12lb |
Two front-running wins this year (7.4f/1m, soft/good) and close third here (8.3f, good to soft) two starts ago; not quite at his best at Redcar most recently but he lost a shoe and remains of interest. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Her last four wins have come at this track, with two of them (7f/1m) last month; drawn wide when down the field at Chester two weeks ago but she has fared better on that front today; big run on the cards. |
4/1 |
|
9th 10 (11) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Last four wins at Musselburgh, including two last month, latterly producing a career-best performance to see off ten rivals over 1m on good; runner-up on only Chester visit; a further 4lb rise demands even more but can't rule out in her current mood. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |
11st 7lb |
Flat winner in Britain has made little impression so far hurdling on likely unsuitably soft/heavy ground; yard in fine form and potential improver back on a sound surface. |
13/2 |

8th 10 |
7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 50y |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive last term, winning two in a row at Goodwood (1m, good to soft/good) in the autumn, and kept on well for a close fourth on last month's reappearance at Haydock (7f, good to firm); solid claims back up to 1m. |
13/2 |
|
4th 3 (10) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Had strong handicap form over 1m in the second half of 2025, finishing second at York's Ebor meeting (good to firm) before recording back-to-back wins at Goodwood (good to soft and good); ran well for third in a Nottingham Listed race when last seen 178 days ago; only seventh in this race 12 months ago and he's 4lb higher today. |
9/1 |

3rd 2 (7) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Won on soft last year; Goodwood double (1m, good to soft/good) in handicaps this autumn; however, only mid-division in valuable event at Ascot 11 days ago, comfortably held by Ebt's Guard, and needs to resume improvement. |

7th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Successful over 7f at Thirsk (heavy) and Catterick (good to soft) this term; good third off this mark in 1m AW contest most recently; solid contender back on turf. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
3rd Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins on turf this year, at Thirsk (7f, heavy) in April and at Catterick (7f, good to soft) in June; ran well when third of eight in his only previous AW start at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in August last year, but still to fully convince over this far. |
4/1 |
|
5th 11 (3) |
5th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Improved form since being gelded and he made it 2-4 this season when justifying favouritism at Catterick (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago; that was a last-gasp success but he reeled in a progressive rival and a 4lb rise looks fair enough; respected. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Kept on well to beat Blufferonthebus at Carlisle (her only other win also came there) in June; good effort when second of 11 at Thirsk (also 1m, soft) in September when last seen; also ran well on her return in 2024 but could beat only Dandy's Angel when making her comeback in this race last year; any rain would help and market may guide on this reappearance. |
11/2 |

2nd 3 (10) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Kept on well to win a 1m handicap at Carlisle (soft) in June; not so good twice since and vulnerable to the 3yos this time. |
14/1 |
|
8th 10 (8) |
17th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Won off a reduced mark at Carlisle (7.8f, soft) on June and didn't run badly in race that developed into a slog there (1m1f, soft) last month; back in trip for this AW debut and could have a say if the new surface suits. |

4yo who went the wrong way for Brian Ellison and there's been no revival in his two races for new yard; has now finished last on his last four outings; off nearly three months again and tries his first headgear. |
