24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Acts on soft and good to firm; has the makings of a Group performer judged on his smart handicap form this term, notably close second off top weight in the Royal Hunt Cup; prominent for a long way in the Sussex Stakes over C&D most recently, fading only inside the final furlong; major player back down in class. |

Useful handicapper who registered sole success last season when beating Godwinson (2025 Lincoln winner) in this contest on reappearance; now 6lb higher but still warrants respect on seasonal debut. |

Has useful form over 1m, notably Spring Cup success (good to soft) on seasonal debut; close fourth, posting a career-best RPR, in major 7f handicap at Ascot (good to firm) most recently and remains comparatively unexposed at this distance; in the mix. |

9st 1lb |
Won the 1m handicap at Newcastle on Good Friday off 4lb lower; a repeat is likely to be the main focus this spring but he won at Chelmsford (7f) in December and he is still feasibly weighted on his 2024 best; stable also run Witch Hunter. |

7th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Form dipped in small field at Chepstow last time but record suggests this scenario will suit him better; developing into a useful 7f handicapper otherwise for new yard and won the Bunbury Cup (good) in July, prior to meeting traffic issues in the International here; still of interest. |
12/1 |
6th 5 (8) |
8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won the Bunbury Cup in good style at Newmarket (7f, good) last month and didn't get the gaps when close ninth of 18 in the International at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time; his new mark has now kicked in (6lb higher than at Newmarket and 4lb higher than at Ascot) but he's respected nevertheless. |
4/1 |
9th 14 (14) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Knocking at the door prior to producing a career-best performance in the Bunbury Cup at Newmarket (7f, good) two weeks ago, recording his first win since joining current connections; well treated under a small penalty (future mark 4lb higher) and open to further improvement; major contender. |

9st 4lb |
Career started with two AW wins at Kempton, looking the type to develop into a smart sort; hasn't lived up to expectations in two turf events since but perhaps needed the latest one, having been absent for 11 months; lightly raced and can't be written off. |

Absent since being beaten at 4-9 in Listed race at Sandown (1m, good to soft) last May, finishing third of four on his turf debut; however, he went there unbeaten following two 1m AW wins and this very lightly raced 4yo retains considerable potential for his top stable; intriguing contender. |

9st 12lb |
Looked very promising early in career; mixed fortunes since but beaten just a neck at Yarmouth in August last time (1m2f, good to soft; unraced on softer), when clear with unexposed Godolphin winner, and he's not ruled out. |
11/1 |
2nd 4 (2) |
25th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Hasn't made the anticipated progress since winning back-to-back last summer, including a handicap off 1lb higher; however, he was close up in fifth last time at Sandown (1m, good to soft) and might not be far away if seeing out this new trip. |
15/2 |

13th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |

Reserve; lightly raced 4yo who runs off last winning mark and returned to form with close fifth of 15 at Sandown (1m, good to soft) last month; today's step up in trip may prompt improvement but others are more compelling. |

14th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Useful in his younger days but hasn't won in well over two years and the losing run now stands at 24; is always reliant on luck given his run style, which he hasn't had lately, but he's undeniably well handicapped now having been dropped another 4lb. |

15th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

18th May 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Very useful 7f handicapper for Ralph Beckett; won last year's Bunbury Cup (off 2lb lower); never landed a blow at Newmarket on stable/seasonal debut but shaped as if this return to 1m is worth exploring; has the ability to play a big role. |

Won five handicaps during an excellent 2024, the turf wins on good/good to soft; this 6yo needs to be better than ever to land this red-hot handicap but he reappeared with an encouraging fifth at Wolverhampton (AW) three weeks ago and isn't ruled out given how prolific he was last year. |

29th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who was inconsistent last season (merely mid-division on last two runs) but he was a fine second in the Spring Cup at Newbury (1m, good to soft) on last year's reappearance and his win at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) in August came after a 72-day break; clearly goes well fresh and may yet have more left in the tank for a trainer who has won this four times. |

Lightly raced 4yo who won at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) in August, then finished third of 12 in the centre group when 15th overall in the Cambridgeshire (1m1f, soft) last time; in top hands and wears first-time cheekpieces, so improvement can't be ruled out, but it's necessary in this hot race. |

Placed in a couple of competitive handicaps earlier in the season (1m/1m2f, good to soft) and won at Goodwood last month when back from a break (1m, good to soft; unraced on softer), for which he's gone up 4lb; this 4yo has raced only seven times and is in good hands to continue to progress. |
