1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 44y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The last of his 11 wins was in July 2024 but he missed most of last year and has taken minor honours in the first (C&D) and latest of his five starts this term; not totally ruled out. |
16/1 |

4th 6 (2) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Returned from an absence with an encouraging third at Salisbury (1m6f, good) in May and he's now 7lb lower; however, he's failed to threaten on his three starts since and has to raise his game. |

9st 5lb |
Multiple wins include six on the Flat, but none of any description since July 2024; absent 389 days before his Salisbury third in May but two major backward steps have followed; off ten weeks and down the weights. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Recorded a string of good efforts on a sound surface in 2024; missed last year but after a slow start this term there have been more encouraging signs on AW/soft on his last three starts; forecast ground will afford him a chance to race on sound turf since he finished second in this race off 9lb higher two years ago; very interesting. |

5th 10 (10) |
30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Did well in 2024 and then had 592 days off the track; signs of a revival when seventh in the Northumberland Plate but his Kempton run (behind Maxident) was disappointing. |
12/1 |

Did well in 2024 and then had 592 days off the track; signs of rediscovering his form when 4l behind Believitanducan in the Northumberland Vase (2m AW); dropped 3lb and in the mix. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won this 12 months ago and returns on a hat-trick after another course win (made all) and a success at Salisbury that looked unlikely until he picked up late on; might travel sweeter back at this track and can cope with this mark. |
3/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned from three-month break with front-running win at Brighton (1m4f, good) in May and will be fine on the faster surface here but he's probably not quite as good as he was; younger rivals appeal more. |
11/4 |
|
1 (3) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ordinary form on the AW during the winter but he is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last August; off since February but he's respected back here on this return. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Former Group 3 winner who's been on the slide for a while now; suggested he was about to exploit a much reduced mark when fourth at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month and he attracted good support when keeping on for third at Brighton (1m2f, good to soft) ten days ago; overall profile far from persuasive but he still warrants consideration. |
3/1 |

3rd 6 (1) |
27th May 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Suggested he might be able to exploit his much reduced mark soon when fourth at Wolverhampton (9.4f) a fortnight ago but his run at Kempton (1m4f) on Wednesday was a backward step and he remains without a win since his Irish Group 3 success in June 2022. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Record over C&D reads 12171, but despite market strength he ran terribly on his return from 16 months off here (1m6f) 15 days ago; has a lot to prove after that, but interesting to see if his backers return. |

7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
C&D winner off 2lb lower in April who went in again off his lower turf mark four weeks ago; both came for Harry Vigors in small fields and there's no reason not to expect another decent showing. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in April and close third at Chester (1m4f, good) four weeks ago; this 6yo could give another good account but is taking on some unexposed 3yos and may well be vulnerable. |

10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner in January, 2024; lightly raced since though and has his fitness to prove returning from 15 months off; the market can guide. |
14/1 |
|
8th 9 (8) |
16th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Generally very disappointing since 1m3f Kempton novice win on British Flat debut in January 2024, but has become well handicapped and is likely to have entered a few notebooks when keeping on steadily from the rear for sixth in recent Chelmsford race won by Arcadian Nights; watch the betting. |
