19th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who looked highly progressive when winning handicaps at Newcastle (1m, AW) and over C&D (good to firm) in the summer; unraced on softer than good and he's failed to continue his improving ways the last twice, but perhaps first-time cheekpieces will give him a boost; not discounted. |
11/1 |

18th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive form in justifying favouritism in 1m handicaps at Newcastle (AW) and Ascot (good to firm) before hanging for pressure and finishing only midfield in a deep one at York; has to bounce back from that but a QEII entry gives plenty of hope that he might. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Useful on his day but has become inconsistent, latterly at Meydan, notwithstanding a January performance that's his sole win for current yard; the 9yo can be opposed back on British soil; tongue-tie fitted. |
33/1 |

8th 6 (8) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Useful weights turnaround with Flying Frontier on C&D form last August and also with Arabian Light from Meydan (1m1f) in February; however, some question marks about his form since and whether he really wants a stiff test at 1m2f has yet to be proved. |
20/1 |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Record of 0-17 for current yard doesn't tell the whole story, as he's capable of very useful form; last few efforts don't augur well, however, and he came up short (finished 11th) in this race in 2024. |

16th Mar 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Winner of this race for Johnny Murtagh, third of 19 last season when trained by George Boughey; generally disappointing since and the most recent of his five wins was for Murtagh in a 7f conditions race at Tipperary in April 2022; change of stable for 2025 campaign. |
8/1 |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Well handicapped on his third on heavy ground at the Curragh (1m) in March but he's been generally disappointing since and was only tenth of 14 at Doncaster two weeks ago; new headgear is now tried but his last win was in 2022 and others are more convincing. |
7/1 |

10th 4 (15) |
14th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Finished third in this race in 2021 and filled the same position at Ascot last time; not guaranteed to repeat the form, having been inconsistent this year, and his long losing run is another negative. |

1lb lower than when scoring in an amateur riders' event at Goodwood (1m, good) in June, but hard to win with these days and latest close third of six came in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta); look elsewhere. |

Infrequent winner who is usually held up (can start slowly) and he needs everything to drop right; capable off this mark but if missing the kick from stall 1 he could be behind the black ball. |

14th 11 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but he has slipped a long way in the weights; absent since a poor run at Newcastle (7f) in February; headgear absent for his return and dropping back to 6f isn't sure to suit. |
33/1 |

10th 12 (11) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Too headstrong in a clear lead at Southwell (7f) last time, so did fairly well to be beaten only 2l in the end; gained last win off 10lb higher at Newcastle in August 2024; fighting chance provided he settles. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner who scored on the other course here (1m, good) in May; hasn't hit the same level in four subsequent runs but he was not beaten far at Thirsk last time and he ties in with Tuscan Hills on that form; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets the breaks. |
12/1 |

7th 10 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Campaigned mostly at the Newmarket tracks this term, winning in May and respectable third last time; has shown versatility in the past but looks weighted to the hilt off current mark and this step back up in class adds to the difficulty. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (10) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Well beaten at Epsom on Oaks day and he still had work to do when his path was blocked late on over this C&D three weeks ago; however, before those he won in good style on the other Newmarket course (1m, good) and he won this race in 2024 (good to soft); capable of having a say. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Visored for the first time when making a winning stable debut at Nottingham (8.5f, good to firm) last month and, although a beaten short-price favourite, posted another solid effort under a penalty at Sandown (1m); now 2lb higher but remains fairly treated on older form. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Changed hands for 9,000gns last month and comfortably exploited a reduced mark on last Thursday's stable debut at Nottingham (1m, good to firm), where he was odds-on in a first-time visor (retained); this C&D winner is ahead of the handicapper under a penalty and should be tough to beat. |
8/13 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Nine-time winner whose best effort this year came when a close-up third over C&D in May, taking his form figures at this track to 213; below his best in two starts since and has left the Newland-Insole stable (bought for 9,000gns); visor replaces blinkers for his yard debut and he's interesting. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
10yo who won this in 2023; frequently runs well in quality handicaps and he's 5lb lower than when a cracking third in the Royal Hunt Cup last June; scratched from the Lincoln when running a temperature on his intended comeback last month and he tends to improve for a run these days; also winless since 2023. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |

9yo who has drawn a blank since winning on the July Course in summer 2023 and needs everything to drop right but he often runs extremely well in defeat, including when third in the Royal Hunt Cup in June; another respectable effort when sixth of 20 in Balmoral at Ascot (1m, good) a fortnight ago; not discounted in this slightly easier race. |

9st 11lb |
Won the International at Ascot and a 6.5f course handicap on soft at the St Leger meeting in a very good 2023 campaign; has failed to hit the same heights this year but now dangerously well handicapped and recent efforts have been a bit better. |
11/1 |

6th 5 (6) |
4th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
He's had a disappointing campaign but has dropped down the weights and took a big step back in the right direction in first-time blinkers (retained) when a close fourth at Ripon (6f, soft) last Saturday, having been slowly away; this course winner may be able to build on that latest performance. |

28th Sep 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

It's been a struggle for him so far this year, including back under favourable conditions at Doncaster 13 days ago, but he's down to a good mark and possible the switch to blinkers will pique his interest. |

Failed to kick on after big-field handicap win at Meydan (1m, good to firm) in March but returned from a break in the Cambridgeshire (1m1f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and was denied a clear run when finishing an encouraging 11th of 23; he may be able to build on that performance. |

Won a big-field handicap at Meydan (1m, good to firm) in March; however, didn't really threaten in Britain on his next three starts in April and May, and returns from a break today; others are more appealing. |
