13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned mostly on good/firmer; record is only 1-11 but good seconds at Haydock (1m) and Chester (7.5f; cheekpieces applied) last month suggest his turn is near; one for the shortlist. |
7/1 |

2nd 10 (7) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
3yo who returned to form with very close second to Sir Paul Ramsey at Haydock (1m, good) three weeks ago on his second run since being gelded; back up 4lb today but still of interest after that latest performance, provided conditions suit (unproven on slow ground); wears first-time cheekpieces. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Went back-to-back at Hamilton last season (1m1f, good; maiden/handicap) and unlikely that he gave his true running when a beaten favourite at York in September (1m2f); held a Cambridgeshire entry back then and he retains plenty of potential as a 4yo, especially at this trip (dam stayed well). |
8/1 |

6 (12) |
7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Cambridgeshire entrant who is on a hat-trick after back-to-back 1m1f wins at Hamilton, accounting for a solid yardstick on handicap debut (good); could easily take a 5lb rise in his stride and today's extra distance is likely to suit (dam stayed well). |
9/4 |
|
2 (6) |
12th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Fulfilled previous promise when a short-priced winner of a C&D maiden in June, comfortably beating a stablemate of Noble Horizon; brings plenty of potential into handicaps. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Respectable sixth over 1m2f both starts this year, the latter in a warm race at York when shaping as if worth another try over 1m3f+; gets that here and has each-way hopes. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (9) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Close third of 15 on stable debut over C&D (good to firm) last August when 3lb higher; he hasn't kicked on subsequently but last month's reappearance sixth at Doncaster gives him something to build on; not discounted. |
12/1 |
|
6th 3 (10) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
2-6 for Karl Burke before sold for 165,000gns last July; ran well to take minor honours over 1m2f at York in two of his four subsequent starts, while 1m4f on heavy seemed to find him out in the November Handicap here on latest; can go well if sufficiently tuned up for this reappearance. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Two turf wins at around 1m on good ground last summer, the second of them coming off a 1lb higher mark; not far off his best form when fourth at Lingfield early this month but he has since finished a remote 11th at Musselburgh; not a solid option. |
8/1 |
|
11th 9 (12) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Just 1lb higher than for the latest of two wins on turf last year and suggested a stiffer test might suit when beaten just over a length into fourth of 12 at Lingfield (1m, AW) nine days ago; shortlisted. |
