9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Did well for Harriet Bethell last season and his two runs this year have been encouraging, second of 13 to an unexposed one at Thirsk three weeks ago; mark left unchanged; big player. |

2nd 10 (12) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
The winner of four of his eight starts last year (6f, good or slower); perhaps needed the run on his return to action at Newcastle last month, running respectably in the smaller stands' side group; the more rain to fall the better for him. |

6th 8 (11) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Landed a fourth success of a productive first season with Harriet Bethell when comfortably seeing off 12 rivals at Pontefract in October; all those wins came at 6f but he was also second over 7f at Chelmsford last summer; no surprise were he to improve again this year. |

Havana Gold gelding left his debut fifth behind when fourth of 12 in 7f maiden at Chelmsford 20 days ago, despite coming wide entering the straight; he's open to further progress so is in the mix. |

6th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Only a modest fifth at Chepstow but seemed green and perhaps found the 6f trip too sharp; made late headway and looks open to improvement over this longer trip with the experience under his belt. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Dual Flat winner; ran his best race in this sphere when third of ten finishers at Southwell (2m, good) nine days ago on his handicap debut; has scope to improve further and should run well. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Dual Flat winner; quiet in three runs over hurdles and although handicaps may see him in a better light, his last two Flat efforts were very moderate; stamina looks an issue. |
20/1 |

9th 7 (6) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins from 21 starts; went close at Nottingham (8.5f, heavy) in October but he's struggled since (Flat/jumps), including when well beaten at that same track 15 days ago; drops back to 7f; others are preferred. |

18th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Took well to the application of tongue-tie/cheekpieces, drop in distance and switch to handicap level at Leicester (6f, heavy) last week; has to overcome a penalty (1lb lower in future) but could well build on that success; shortlisted. |

8th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
All runs over 7f; made the frame on AW debut but well beaten since then, latterly here on soft ground; dropped in trip for nursery debut and with headgear added, so comes with risks. |
20/1 |

7th 5 (8) |
10th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Folded late on when third in maiden at Chelmsford (7f, AW) but well beaten at 20-1 in novice at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) later last month. |

Thrice-raced gelding; appeared to run well dropped to 6f at Doncaster on reappearance most recently; may build on that effort. |

0-15 when trained by Ed Dunlop and absent since two disappointing 1m runs in the spring; on good mark and sports first-time tongue-tie on stable debut; blinkers removed; market may guide. |

8th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
14-race maiden but runner-up four times; ran no sort of race when last of nine in first-time visor at Newcastle AW (1m) last month and reverts back to blinkers here; the penny will drop one of these days and he's now on a career-low mark; not out of this. |

28-1, last of 12 in 7f maiden at Chelmsford on his first run 20 days ago; lots more is needed from this son of Elzaam. |

5,000euros foal, 10,000euros yearling; by Elzaam and the first foal of a lightly raced half-sister to very useful 6f-1m2f winner Mjjack; one of two newcomers for this yard; market instructive. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Most of his best efforts have come from the front but he just raced in touch when second at Yarmouth (6f) on latest outing, his best show this year; well handicapped if judged on peak 2025 efforts. |
6/1 |

2nd 4 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

Front-runner who got upset in the stalls and was slowly away last time at Wolverhampton; his previous two runs were also below best form and easy lead looks unlikely with Grand Citadel in the field. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Australia half-sister to Spanish 1m3f winner Isaba, out of unraced half-sister to useful winners Cloud Surfing (German 7f Listed) and Under The Sun (1m 2yo); yard has a very low strike-rate with 2yos. |

Some promise when sixth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.4f) but the first-time hood was removed when beaten 18l at Chelmsford (1m5f); this could be more her trip but again runs without headgear. |
