22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Began his career with two good 6f runs on Tapeta; upped to 7f for his handicap debut at Leicester last week (good to soft) and saw the trip out well, just unable to peg back a rival who secured first run on him; faster ground to deal with this time but unexposed at the distance. |

15th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Placed in 6f maidens/novice on first three starts last term; disappointing with cheekpieces in valuable AW maiden last time (6f); headgear left off for handicap debut; step up to 7f should suit. |

A four-time winner but has been regressing for a while and no effort of note for current yard. |

8th 3 (8) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won four times for his previous stable, three of which came on the AW at Newcastle; ended his time with that yard with some lesser efforts and he's been well held in two starts for Scott Dixon; dropped another 3lb. |
33/1 |
|
10th 6 (5) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Four wins for the Barrons, three of them over 7f on the Tapeta at Newcastle; 28-1 for his stable debut two weeks ago (first run after a 175-day break) and he weakened as though it was needed; likely to bounce back at some point. |

14th Oct 2024 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who made it 2-3 for the year when beating 13 rivals to win at Newcastle (7f, AW) last month; also effective on good to soft and good to firm; that latest win can be upgraded as she had to wait for a clear run, and a 4lb rise could prove to be lenient; firmly in calculations. |
7/2 |

1st 9 (4) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Created a good impression off a 4lb lower mark on her comeback and did well to go as close as she did when last seen after blowing the start badly; remains open to improvement, so has to be considered. |
5/1 |

3rd 3 (1) |
22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Promise on AW but she looked an improved model switched to turf at Wetherby 19 days ago, picking up well from the back of the field to win a 7f fillies' handicap (good) in decisive fashion; 4lb higher but could still have her best days ahead of her. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the 20th attempt when battling well to justify support at Musselburgh (7f, good) two weeks ago; up 4lb but he beat a clear second last time and his confidence could be boosted after that success; big player again with cheekpieces added. |
5/1 |
|
1st 8 (11) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Out the back on first four outings for Lawrence Mullaney but big step back in the right direction when second in 7f Southwell classified event seven weeks ago, pulling clear with one who has won and finished a close second in two handicap starts since; his last 11 outings have been on AW but was runner-up over C&D (good) in August 2024; bold show likely if a wide stall isn't too much of an inconvenience. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Poor strike-rate (1-30); beaten a neck over 6f at Southwell (Class 6) in February but less productive in three subsequent appearances (6f-7f), although with mitigating circumstances (saddle slipped) latest. |
11/2 |
|
5th 5 (10) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless since August 2024 but he comes here in decent nick, fifth of nine in 7f Lingfield handicap 17 days ago; place prospects off an easing mark. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Effective at 6f and 7f but his sole win was in a Carlisle novice in August 2024; went close off this mark at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) last month but was never involved when a remote fourth there last time; that was behind a handicap blot but he needs to step up again after that. |

11th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from 30 starts but he's struggled here (7f handicap) and at Newcastle (1m classified) in last two runs; passed over. |
16/1 |
|
7th 2 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from his 29 starts but close fourth in handicap at Ayr (7f, good) two starts ago and slow ground may not have suited there subsequently; has run well here in the past and could be involved. |
11/2 |
|
9th 12 (3) |
21st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Only 1-28 but it was his second run after wind surgery when close up in Spun To Gold's race here last week; soft ground would not be ideal should it get wet. |
14/1 |
