24th Apr 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Comfortable C&D win last May off 13lb lower (good to soft); better than ever when scoring at Newcastle in November (5f; second run after wind surgery) but he underperformed back at Newcastle (6f) 11 days later; can go well fresh and still open to improvement but maybe slower ground would be ideal. |

22nd Nov 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
In-form 3yo who scored comfortably over 5f here last week, taking his record in AW handicaps to 1231; mixed record at 6f but it includes a 2yo success; well handicapped under a penalty (future mark 3lb higher) and is a must for the shortlist. |

Scored twice last year and shaped well when second of ten at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) last month; needs a fast-run race to show his best. |

27th Apr 2025 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won two sprint handicaps last season (5f, good to firm and 6f, AW); pleasing return to action at Pontefract (5f, good) in a race where he was poorly positioned (held up in a race where nothing got into it and also made his challenge up the middle of the track); he'll need luck in running from stall 1 but he's capable of winning a similar event. |

His sole win from 14 starts came in a three-runner maiden at Chepstow last August (5f, good to soft); well beaten in two handicaps afterwards; seems happiest on good or slower. |

Suited by about 7f on stiff tracks, getting off the mark at Leicester (good to soft) last July and another win soon followed, at Beverley (good to firm) in August; just 1lb higher for the latter win and should come on for her recent comeback; can run well. |

15-race maiden; coped well with the step up to this trip when a close fourth over C&D last week; that wasn't a searching examination of her stamina but this might not be either and she's one to consider. |
