2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won this race off 1lb lower 12 months ago on stable debut; a market check is advised but he was tailed off on this year's two Flat starts and pulled up on his recent hurdle debut; a major turnaround is needed. |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful at around 1m4f on the Flat at his best but ran as though something was amiss on both outings in the spring and it takes a leap of faith to support him on this hurdling debut; blinkers the headgear of choice today. |

11th May 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 3 |

Probably acts on Tapeta; won two 1m4f turf handicaps last April/August before his form tapered away; tailed off on reappearance four weeks ago. |

21st Nov 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Interesting on bits of form but has proved headstrong at times and his two efforts since being gelded leave a lot to be desired; chance depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear. |

16th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has looked fairly useful but his headstrong tendency has been an issue, particularly last time (well beaten; first run since being gelded); now wears tongue-tie; has the ability to figure if settling better. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-time winner whose three appearances here have yielded two wins (7f and 1m) back in 2022/2023; also finished runner-up in this race (good to firm) in 2024 and he was back on track when fairly close third of four at Hamilton (1m5f, good to firm) four weeks ago; winner and second have won subsequently and he warrants consideration. |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dipped into Class 5 company at Newcastle in March and won comfortably (extended 1m4f); two disappointing runs have followed and he now has a point to prove; has run well in two course visits, at least. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Not at best on the Flat this year (albeit still capable of useful form) and managed only fourth of six when warm favourite for latest hurdle race, at Worcester (2m, good) in May; that said, he's a stout stayer on the Flat and could have untapped potential over this new trip over jumps. |
9/4 |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Not in peak form (hurdles or Flat) from last August onwards but it's not forgotten that he was third in the Plate itself last year off 3lb higher. |
22/1 |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Dual hurdle winner who is 0-4 in handicaps; however, he should be on a fair mark given the level of his Flat ability and he ran quite well in a valuable Newmarket handicap at the Guineas meeting; player. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Usually apprentice ridden but Jude Fernandes rides him for the first time; 6lb lower than when winning at Sandown (1m6f, good to firm) last June; he has not beaten many in his four starts this season, coming last in a four-runner race last time, but can't be dismissed and the hood he often wore last term (and first run this year) is reinstated. |

26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Flat and hurdles winner but already a far superior chaser; jumped well in front (although sometimes to the right) when completing a handicap hat-trick at Doncaster (2m, soft) six weeks ago by 17l; firmly on the up and deserves his chance in this higher grade. |
9/2 |

1st 3 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Flat/hurdle winner but he's looking a far superior chaser; bumped into a very smart novice on his chase debut and has since won two handicaps, the latest over C&D by some 8l (soft); an 8lb rise could have been worse for one firmly on the upgrade. |
7/4 |
|
1st 3 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Flat/hurdles winner; very solid form at Newbury (2m, good to soft) since switched to fences, finishing a good second (behind subsequent Grade 2 scorer) prior to going one better in a race that is working out nicely; may well have more to offer in this sphere and warrants major respect. |
