14th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Will find this easier than his latest assignment but has basically been disappointing since his soft-ground win at Doncaster (7f) in April and needs to up his game. |

26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Soft-ground winner over 7f in April but he hasn't finished strongly on latest three attempts at 1m and was right out of it on latest start (7f) in July; often wears headgear but none today; 4lb wrong. |

Strike-rate is just 1-20, the win gained on soft ground in April; comfortably held at this course (1m) most recently; now wears reapplied cheekpieces (0-4 in this headgear); others preferred. |

Five-time AW winner but 0-22 on turf; ran poorly behind Penny Ghent at Ripon ten days ago and others have more obvious claims. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

All five wins over 7f on AW; 0-21 on turf and doesn't appeal for win purposes despite career-low mark. |

Billy Garritty gets on well with him (form figures together read 421125) and the likes of Kessaar Power should ensure this is truly run, which will suit this hold-up performer; he does seem more effective over 7f, though. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Can front-run; made all at Ayr (7f, soft) in July but he failed to back that up at that same track next time; fair fourth having dictated the gallop at Hamilton (8.5f, good to soft) three weeks ago and now returns to 7f. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (7) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins from his last nine starts, the latest at Ayr (7f, soft) in July, and he can't be discounted; however, good runs have been in the minority this year and it's been a long time since he won beyond 7f. |
7/1 |

Enhanced his good form figures here with a narrow success over this trip 15 days ago when the ground was soft; overcame a wide draw that day; must have a chance. |

Proving solid this season and scored over C&D (good to firm) most recently, taking Beverley form figures to 21021 (the duck egg is probably best forgiven); likely to remain competitive. |
9/2 |

1st 3 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained sole turf success over C&D (in September 2024) and returns to Beverley in reasonably good form, having made the frame in both outings this year, latest in big field at Doncaster (1m); solid claims. |
5/1 |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Twice finished second last summer; pleasing return to action when third of nine at Newcastle last month (7f); seems to handle most ground and he is another to consider in a wide-open handicap. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Started the season well, winning at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May; less competitive since, including when fifth of eight over 1m at Carlisle five weeks ago; competes from an easing mark with blinkers replacing usual cheekpieces. |

4th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Both wins have been on good to soft, the latest over 7f here on reappearance in May; rather disappointing both starts since; has won over 7.5f; any rain a bonus, but needs to bounce back. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Turned things around after a break when scoring at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May but she failed to back that up over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago; still looks on a workable mark but she's hard to predict and needs to bounce back again. |

C&D scorer who was tried in cheekpieces when a below-par fifth in 7f Thirsk handicap on his return 17 days ago; he needs to take a step forward. |

23rd Jan 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

4th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Versatile trip-wise, having won over 6f on this track in September and later a 7f turf claimer the following month; another sound effort over the extended 1m here next time and although his 7f handicap form isn't particularly compelling, he's in good enough form to be considered. |

6-31 on AW, four of those wins gained over C&D and the most recent a ready success from a 1lb lower mark last December; failed to settle on outer when only eighth of 12 (Jersey Maverick sixth, State of Madness ninth) at Kempton three weeks ago; others arrive in better form. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

Last four wins have been gained over C&D at Class 5 or lower, and tonight's would be the highest banded handicap he has taken in to date; drop back from 1m rates a plus, but clear career best likely required. |

Generally struggled for this yard last year but he's become more realistically treated again now; last month's Newcastle reappearance should have blown away any cobwebs but he has done his winning on AW and has something to prove on slow turf. |
