20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Runner-up twice at Chepstow this season (1m, good/good to firm) but is far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his recent efforts have been very disappointing; swaps usual blinkers for refitted cheekpieces. |

9th 10 (1) |
30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Very hit-and-miss these days and his second of 13 at Chepstow (good to firm) in July hasn't been reproduced in six subsequent starts; 1lb out of the weights and others look a lot safer. |
33/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Usually leads and has the option of going up the far side from stall 1; hit-and-miss these days, for a trainer also responsible for Romanovich (a fellow front-runner drawn on the opposite wing) but is capable off a feather weight if tactics decide the day. |

15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Progressive 5yo who was taking his record over C&D to 3-3 when beating Melek Alreeh here 13 days ago; could have even more to offer and is one of the leading contenders off this 2lb higher mark. |
5/2 |

30th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Has made great strides since winning a classified event in July 2024, winning three times on Polytrack, most recently over C&D in March; hampered start at Lingfield in September before involved in a tight finish and seems likely to find another race off this mark. |

28th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Quirky type with a patchy record but he justified favouritism at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month and had an excuse when stepped back up to 1m2f at Brighton (took strong hold) last time; still looks feasibly treated on that penultimate form and has claims if he can bounce back again. |
6/1 |

3rd 1 (9) |
9th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
unseated rider in paddock, took keen hold, in rear, headway over 4f out, switched to near side over 3f out, hung left over 1f out, weakened inside final furlong |
100/30 |

1st 7 (1) |
5th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
17-race maiden who looked a difficult ride when pulling hard here (1m2f classified) last time but he wasn't beaten far in that race, and that was after an eyecatching fourth over C&D two weeks earlier; comes with risks attached but he's not ruled out back in trip. |

17th Sep 2024 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Long in the tooth now and nothing like the force of old but proved he still has fire in his belly when close/clear second to Gallimimus over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Eight wins under both codes but he's been quiet on the Flat this year and has been beaten 10l or more over C&D in last two runs; continues to drop down the weights but this 11yo has plenty to prove. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Kept on for third in recent selling handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, good; behind Velvet Vulcan), making the frame in his fourth consecutive Flat race, but career strike-rate now stands at 0-31. |
12/1 |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-24 on the Flat but he wasn't running badly in this sphere prior to finishing tailed off over hurdles three weeks ago; not ruled out from this career-low mark with Oisin Murphy taking over. |
4/1 |

9th 6 |
17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-24 on the Flat and 0-5 over hurdles; not seen over jumps since 38l defeat in 2m2f handicap here in October and his tendency to race too freely is always a worry. |

16th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

0-12 in Ireland and 0-6 in Britain; some renewed hope from latest start (Wolverhampton 9.4f) but that's hardly convincing. |

27th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made the frame several times in Ireland; largely unconvincing form for current yard but record suggests this return to AW may have a positive effect. |
