6th 1 (5) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Sole win from 13 starts came in a 1m novice at Windsor on soft ground in May 2024 when trained by Charlie Hills; runner-up at Lingfield (1m, AW) on stable debut in February and again at Doncaster latest (7f, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie); hood is now added; quicker ground would be a concern. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (15) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Novice winner who is 0-9 in handicaps but has started favourite in both runs (1m, AW) for new yard and the way he shaped last time suggests this return to 7f is worth exploring; tongue-tie fitted; possibilities. |

|
1st 9 (3) |
30th May 2024 Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
In the frame in all four starts, the latest when second of 13 at Windsor (1m, soft; Galyx won the other division in a slower time) this month; stiffer test should suit on breeding and likely to go close again. |
5/4 |
|
2nd 12 (2) |
6th May 2024 Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Made most and improved when second of nine at Newmarket (1m, good) on second start as 2yo; big shout on that but, at evens, she did not live up to it when third of five at Bath (1m, heavy) four weeks ago; bred for 1m2f+ but raced freely last time; still has to be seriously considered. |

20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Same connections won this race last year; confined to three runs this spring, taking major steps forward; surged well clear from the rest in the closing stages of a maiden at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) three weeks ago and, although the opposition that day looked fair at best, he's an exciting prospect whose dam is a 1m4f winner. |
8/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
31st May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Well-related gelding who is out of 1m4f winner; finished a well-held fifth in the Wood Ditton last month but he took a major step forward when third of 13 at Windsor (1m, soft) 25 days ago; sets a good standard on that form and he's open to more progress on this step up in trip; key player. |
6/4 |
|
3rd 6 (12) |
6th May 2024 Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Well-related gelding by Fastnet Rock; 16-1 for the Wood Ditton newcomers race at Newmarket (1m, good) 18 days ago, 8l fifth of 11 after prominent 6f; needs to have come on markedly but that run showed significant ability. |

8st 12lb |
7f Brighton maiden win in September 2024; yet to score for this yard, best effort when third in a rated race at Limerick last summer (6.5f, good), most recent run at Naas 10 days ago not without promise and return to 7f could suit. |

7th 10 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 10lb |
7f Brighton maiden win in September 2024; yet to score for this yard; best effort a 1.75l third in a rated race at Limerick last July (6.5f, good); heavy ground not ideal on seasonal return; conditions more suitable here. |

9th 2 (1) |

Won a Brighton maiden for James Owen in 2024 on good ground; best effort for this yard on last start in a rated race at Limerick last July (good); ground a big worry here. |

in touch with leaders, outpaced over 2f out, soon rallied and good headway on near side of group, led over 1f out, went clear inside final furlong, easily |
7/4 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Disappointing favourite and co-favourite in his first two handicaps but has turned a major corner with blinkers fitted for his two starts since, winning at Salisbury and Newbury (both 1m4f on good to firm); first off the bridle turning for home last time, before leading on the post, which sees a switch of headgear today (off 6lb higher mark) but also a step up in trip which has to make appeal; leading player. |
9/2 |
|
1st 6 (7) |
17th Aug 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Disappointing favourite and co-favourite in his first two handicaps but the blinkers went on at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago and he won that six-runner race in good style; 8lb higher today but may have turned a corner and has to be taken seriously. |

12th Jun 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Outsider of five on debut at Ascot last year but managed second before drifting to 22-1 at Chelmsford and finishing well beaten; dropped back to 1m and ran okay on first outing for 333 days at Windsor last month; drawn widest but market revealing on handicap debut. |
14/1 |

6th 2 (4) |
6th May 2024 Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Second of five in maiden at Ascot (1m2f, soft) in May 2023 was fair form, but she finished well behind at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in June; races freely and wore a hood last time; absent 333 days but not entirely dismissed. |

Weakened right out of it in novice events at Windsor (1m, soft; much his better form) and Leicester (1m2f, good to soft); best watched for now. |

27th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Out of unraced half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 1 winner Cursory Glance; showed his inexperience and only minor promise when seventh of 13 on recent debut at Windsor (1m, soft); needs to take a good step forward here. |

Off the mark over 8.6f here in January and placed in both goes over C&D in the meantime; the switch to blinkers didn't have a positive effect last time but the return of a visor looks a positive; high on list. |

Still unexposed after only five starts but was safely held in her first two handicaps (11.4f/1m2f, turf); this different trip-and-surface combination needs to enable improvement. |

Postponed filly who has been brought along very steadily, ninth in 1m novice here 19 days ago; appeals as a likely improver now handicapping with her stamina drawn out more; interesting. |

4th 2 (5) |
8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Stepped up on previous efforts when making a successful handicap debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good to soft) in June, but having been raised 5lb he was a disappointing favourite over the same C&D (good) last month; not quite sure what to expect after that. |
11/2 |

7th 3 (1) |
6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |

His much-improved effort when winning a C&D handicap 17 days ago (good to soft) came as no surprise judged on his SP of 11-8 favourite and he was well in command at the finish (hung left when hitting the front); 5lb higher mark likely still in range. |

Progressive 5yo who was taking his record over C&D to 3-3 when beating Melek Alreeh here 13 days ago; could have even more to offer and is one of the leading contenders off this 2lb higher mark. |

Has made great strides since winning a classified event in July 2024, winning three times on Polytrack, most recently over C&D in March; hampered start at Lingfield in September before involved in a tight finish and seems likely to find another race off this mark. |
