28th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 179y |
12st 2lb |
Off the mark over hurdles at Ballinrobe in May on second start for this yard at Ballinrobe; useful five-time Flat winner for Andrew Balding; could make no impression when returning to Britain for the Copper Horse Handicap at Royal Ascot; no match for a Willie Mullins-trained favourite in a novice hurdle at Roscommon three weeks ago. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 204y |
11st 8lb |
Off the mark over hurdles on second start for this yard at Ballinrobe (16.5f, good) in May; smart form on the Flat for Andrew Balding but came up short back on the level in a hot Royal Ascot handicap three weeks ago; top-rated here at 128; obvious chance on ground that will suit. |

Progressive for Andrew Balding last year, winning two handicaps (1m4f/1m6f, AW/good); went over hurdles last month for his new yard and won a maiden at Ballinrobe three weeks ago; could go well now back on the Flat. |

1st Oct 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Sole win was in a novice at Newcastle (1m, AW) last October but he was only just caught in a Hamilton handicap (1m4f, good to soft) last Monday; on same mark here and he's an interesting contender on this drop back in trip. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
0-12 since winning last October on his third start and he's inconsistent; however, he returned to form with a close fifth of 13 at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) recently and this stiffer track may well be a positive; chance. |

11st 5lb |
Not at best on the Flat this year (albeit still capable of useful form) and managed only fourth of six when warm favourite for latest hurdle race, at Worcester (2m, good) in May; that said, he's a stout stayer on the Flat and could have untapped potential over this new trip over jumps. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Dual hurdle winner who is 0-4 in handicaps; however, he should be on a fair mark given the level of his Flat ability and he ran quite well in a valuable Newmarket handicap at the Guineas meeting; player. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Industrious and usually dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f; turf strike-rate is 1-20, however, and he was tailed off at Thirsk (good) on penultimate start, before he failed to shine at Newcastle's Northumberland Plate meeting (AW) for the third year in a row; not the percentage call. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |

Industrious and usually dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f; turf strike-rate is 1-20 and he was tailed off at Thirsk last time; back to AW and he's 7-34 in this sphere, but he's not shone at this meeting (16th in the Plate, 12th in the Vase) in the last two years. |

10yo with a 9-57 record on turf compared to 0-9 (three seconds) on AW; still a force on turf last season (won off 5lb higher) and 2025 reappearance was okay but he took a backward step at Ripon next time. |

11st 4lb |
Hasn't reached the heights his pedigree promised on the Flat but is a dual AW winner at up to 1m2f (RPR 94); trainer 16% with his hurdlers over five seasons and this gelding is likely to be well versed ahead of his debut; big player if transferring his abilities from the other code. |

3rd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Defied a long absence to win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in March on his second start and followed up in Newcastle handicap (1m2f, AW); disappointing at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) three weeks ago but this very lightly raced 5yo retains potential and could be a contender; ran well here on debut in 2022. |

2023 novice winner; 0-10 since, pipped over C&D in November but beating only one home in 1m4f Southwell handicap 20 days ago; needs to bounce back and, having worn cheekpieces on those last two starts, he now sports a visor. |

Seven-time Flat winner who has also scored over hurdles (2m1f, soft) and fences (2m, good); on dangerous mark back over jumps but he's not seen much action in the last 12 months and has been tailed off in his last two Flat runs; risks attached. |

9st 8lb |
Front-runner who has been keeping busy, winning at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) last month and going close on two of his three starts since, most recently beaten half a length at Ascot (1m4f, good to firm); has won here and is capable of another bold bid. |

Usually front-runs; never better than with his first and second at the end of last month, which were on AW however and his top four RPRs have now been registered in that sphere; something to find on turf, including as he was third here (1m6f, good to firm) earlier in July but is now 7lb higher and he dropped out at Chepstow on Thursday. |

Heavy defeat at Worcester last time was his first blip for this yard and reportedly unsuited by ground that was considered softer than the official good; won his previous two races and still on a competitive mark if back on song. |
