17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Smart sprinting 2yo whose four 5f wins included a Group 3 at Longchamp (good to soft) and Group 2 at Doncaster (good), both from the front; has to put a disappointing reappearance at York (favourite) behind him in this much better race. |

15th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Reappears carrying a 5lb penalty but he was a Listed, Group 3 and Group 2 winner last season, and his defeat of Big Mojo and Magnum Force in the Flying Childers reads extremely well; strong claims. |

18th Apr 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent rather than progressive for Richard Hannon; gelded prior to a low-key stable debut at Southwell in February; another modest effort last time (after a wind op); edging down the weights but comes here with plenty to prove; visor now tried (has worn cheekpieces the last twice). |

20th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Very much a mixed bag since returning in January, making all and winning easily in a first-time tongue-tie at Bath (5f, good to firm) in April, but failing to beat a rival in his other three starts; still 12lb higher than at Bath and looks vulnerable. |

7th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Brings only negatives as he faces a difficult task off top weight in this warm race, ideally needs ground softer than is forecast and has a poor draw; second start for new stable. |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won the Brocklesby at Doncaster (5f, soft) in March; third of six in Listed race at Sandown (soft) next time but he's struggled in last two runs (Group 2/Listed) and has been gelded since; passed over. |

5th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Won the Brocklesby at Doncaster (5f, soft) in March; third of six in Listed race over this C&D (soft) in May but well beaten in the Group 2 Coventry at Royal Ascot and his limitations are likely to be exposed once more. |
20/1 |

20th 23 (1) |
18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
16-1 debut winner at Doncaster (5f, soft); faced the same scenario but at Listed level at Sandown and wasn't out of his depth, staying on well for third from an unpromising position; stepping up to 6f looks the way to go and he's not without hope of outrunning his odds, provided stall 1 (from which The Wow Signal obliged ten years ago) is no drawback; tongue-tie added. |
