7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Has been on his travels, winning a Group 3 at Baden-Baden (6f, soft) last August but finishing unplaced at Woodbine, Meydan and Doha in the meantime; returns from another five months off and hard to know how well handicapped he is; stable also runs Garfield Shadow. |

3rd Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Solid start to his career comprised a maiden success and two close seconds at Group 2 level; not in anything like the same form since, comfortably held in warm 3yo handicap most recently; chance depends on whether first-time hood prompts a turnaround. |
14/1 |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Twice a runner-up in Group 2s last year; ended his 2yo campaign with a couple of lesser efforts though and he made a low-key return at Chantilly (5.5f, good to soft; Group 3) in April; up against it on his handicap debut. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Had bits of Group form as a 2yo but his record in handicaps (7f/1m) this term comprises three duck eggs; has lots to prove and may be best watched unless the market speaks positively. |
25/1 |
|
11th 4 (5) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Lots to like about his profile at two (6f/7f) but has finished well down the field in 7f/1m handicaps this term, latterly tried in cheekpieces. |
50/1 |
|
14th 6 (13) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Some useful efforts as a 2yo but he has a doubt over current form, having failed to beat a rival in sole run this term (AW debut); wears first-time headgear and steps up in trip. |

8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All 12 runs have been on turf and he won twice at Catterick (6f/7f, good) last season; 6lb higher than for his last success but he reappeared with a creditable fourth of 13 at Thirsk last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this drop back in trip; tongue-tie added. |
6/1 |
|
4th 3 (13) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ended 2025 in a rich vein of form, winning a Catterick handicap (7f, good) before a narrow defeat at Musselburgh (7f, soft) when last seen 164 days ago; another 2lb higher on his reappearance so he will need to be cherry ripe for this return to action. |
12/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Like Yaaser he was well held at York last Friday, but his previous second to a progressive type at Ayr (7f, soft) looks pretty solid form; sole win came on good ground here; no surprise if he bounces back. |

9st 4lb |
Fair efforts in a York maiden (6f, good to soft) and a Thirsk novice (6f, good to firm); tongue-tie on for first time; looks more of a nursery sort. |
16/1 |

6th 4 (10) |
26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Colt by Blue Point; missed the break but ran on to finish 9l fourth in a York maiden last month (6f, good to soft; 12-1); that form working out as the winner has since finished second in a Group 2 at The Curragh and runner-up has won; a contender. |
3/1 |

4th 4 (1) |
15th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

28,000euros foal, 70,000gns yearling; tenth foal; Blue Point half-brother to four winners notably Time Shanakill (6f-12.5f including Listed) and The Gatekeeper (5f-1m including 2yo; RPR 105); makes debut with trainer in fine form, including with his 2yos; could go well. |

19th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Daunting task on last two starts, at Newmarket then chased home home one on the third leg of a hat-trick at Thirsk (6f, good to firm; first-time blinkers, retained) on handicap debut; likely contender. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Has something to find on his 6f efforts and needs improvement for this extra furlong; may be more interesting in nurseries shortly. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Still a maiden but is attractively treated on best form and less exposed at this trip than shorter; interesting, especially with useful and in-form amateur Eireann Cagney booked. |
9/2 |

6th 7 (6) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Fairly treated on a couple of pieces of form during the summer, but recent efforts not amongst his best and now 0-15; others preferred. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (4) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Good third at Hamilton (good) in July and he bumped into an improving filly when a modest second at Ripon (also about 1m, soft) one week later; form has dipped the last twice but he's not totally dismissed from this career-low mark reunited with Oisin Orr; first try at 1m2f. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Poor strike-rate and he hasn't been at his best since finishing second at Southwell in October; slipping down the weights but others arrive in better form. |
12/1 |
|
10th 10 (1) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Just one win from his 21 starts but he was twice a runner-up over C&D last autumn and he is now 4lb lower than for the second of those efforts; recent runs need bettering if he is to take this though. |
16/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Just one win from 17 starts (5.5f, good to firm; off 3lb lower mark) but he comes here on the back of two good second-place finishes at Southwell; clear of the third on latter occasion and a 2lb rise justified; should be in the thick of it. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Started well for this yard but the wheels have come off lately, finishing last over C&D one month ago then finishing tailed off on AW last Monday; not easy to suggest after that. |
20/1 |
|
11th 1 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
2-5 on AW, most recently at Lingfield (5f) in April off 5lb lower; beaten three times on turf since but can't be discounted back on AW despite going without any aids. |
11/2 |
|
7th 3 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Back to his best since joining his current yard but he's shot up the weights and there have been some costly defeats to go with two AW wins; now 0-17 on turf, having pulled hard in a messy Bath affair last time, and will need a career-best effort to take this. |

A fair maiden for Karl Burke but he has offered little on both runs for his current yard, failing to beat a rival in 6f Kempton handicap 20 days ago; others are preferred. |

7th May 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Good chance on the pick of his 2yo form for Karl Burke but he was sold cheaply in January and finished a well-beaten fifth (125-1) on his stable debut last week; this low-grade handicap is more suitable but he still carries risk. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last July; three lesser runs followed and no return to form on his reappearance in April; he could improve for that latest effort but his claims aren't compelling. |

9th 2 (11) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Strong at the finish when winning a 7f handicap at Doncaster last summer (good to soft); three lesser efforts followed and he returns from his 172 break over a trip that may be too sharp; he is drawn near some good pace though and looks worth a market check. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Exposed 16-race maiden but he has twice finished second in minor handicaps this year, including on Tapeta; lacklustre run over C&D three weeks ago but each-way claims if anywhere near his best. |
16/1 |

9 (9) |
25th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
15-race maiden but he went close when dead-heating for second at Southwell (6f, AW) two starts ago; below that level here over 6f last time and now steps back up in trip. |
10/1 |
|
5th 7 (5) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
14-race maiden but he posted a good second of ten in 6f handicap at Southwell two weeks ago; one to consider nudged up 1lb. |
