6th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 2 |

6th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Responded well to first-time hood at Lingfield (7f) in November when last seen, taking record to 3-7; instant removal of headgear is a possible negative (has raced freely at times previously) but he otherwise warrants respect, being a largely progressive sort. |

1st 2 (7) |
13th Nov 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Two novice wins on turf; beat all bar an impressive winner at Southwell (7f, AW) most recently, posting his best effort since handicapping; may benefit from first-time hood (can race freely) and has possibilities off unaltered mark. |

12th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't had much racing and he went close on his handicap debut at Doncaster in September; finished nearer last than first in valuable event at Ascot (again 7f, soft) last Saturday but he faded only from over 1f out and could be well suited by today's drop to sprinting; may still have potential. |

in touch with leaders on far side of group, pressed leader from 2f out, edged right 1f out, no extra final 110yds |

7th Apr 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Thirsk (1m, good) last August on second start and followed up in Newcastle novice (1m, AW) in September; this unexposed 4yo has potential off his opening mark and he's firmly in calculations. |

1st 1 (12) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Confirmed the promise of his Thirsk debut in July (7f, good to soft) by winning a 1m novice back there last month; improvement required to defy a penalty but it's not out of the question. |

2nd 5 (2) |
4th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Improved from May's Ayr debut when beaten 2l into fourth of nine at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) in July; half-sister to an AW winner and cannot be dismissed easily. |

17th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dam was useful over this trip and he's shown enough in three starts over 7f-7.6f to suggest he's worth considering back from a short break on handicap debut now handed a stiffer test and fitted with first-time headgear/tongue-tie; watch the market. |

29th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 127y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
First foal of a Group-placed 1m winner whose siblings include Oaks/dual Arc winner Enable; attracted support into 15-2 on recent Wetherby debut (7f, good) and he ran well to finish third of 16 behind a useful prospect; has quite a bit to find with Upscale but he should know more this time and is open to progress over this longer trip. |

17th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Hasn't beaten many in five starts over 7f-1m2f on turf; down another 5lb for this AW debut and needs to improve for the new surface. |

29th Jul 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made debut on June 11th and down the field at big odds on all three runs (7f); however, there's potential in his pedigree and his half-brother Autumn Festival left his first three runs behind to win for this yard on handicap debut in 2022, when attracting market support; interesting. |

10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Ran okay for fourth at Southwell last month (7f) but he was left behind by Lattaash in the final furlong; not sure to reverse those placings despite the revised terms. |

18th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Trainer (also runs A Friend To All) best known for older handicappers and this 10,000gns yearling didn't offer much at 125-1 on his Thirsk debut last month. |
