4th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won at York (6f, good to soft) in June and followed up in dominant fashion here (5f, good); returned to form with close seventh of 22 in the Portland at Doncaster (5.6f, good) three weeks ago and, while he needs to raise his game, he's now back at the scene of his career-best performance; chance. |

7th 10 (12) |
14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Having shot up the weights he was well beaten at York last time but had an unfavourable draw and the fast ground may not have suited; highly progressive previously this summer with wins at York (6f, good to soft) and Ascot (5f, good) and he could bounce back and play a leading role. |

21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Threatened better on occasions last season and he's really clicked this time around, running well in big-field handicaps at Ascot and here in May before winning here (6f, good to soft) in June and bolting up in a Shergar Cup race 11 days ago (5f, good); up 10lb since that latest win but this trip could be ideal; stall 22 and fast ground are the two potential stumbling blocks. |

21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Gelded prior to chasing home Holkham Bay at Ascot 11 days ago, a run that was right up there with his best 2yo form; a 10lb turnaround in the weights with that rival should draw them closer together. |

2nd 8 (1) |
10th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Third to Big Evs in last year's Molecomb at Goodwood but rather a damp squib since, outclassed in the King Charles III over C&D before last of nine in handicap at Doncaster (wore cheekpieces); hard to fancy on recent evidence but could be revived by recent gelding operation and Billy Loughnane rides. |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Won this event in 2022 off an 11lb lower mark; two more wins this year, the Dash at Epsom (5f, good to soft) and then defeating a progressive sprinter at Pontefract in August; struggled off this mark in the Portland three weeks ago but a stiff 5f on slow ground suits him well and he's not discounted. |

17th 8 (16) |
14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |

6yo who has won twice this year (5f, good to soft/good to firm) and looked as good as ever when scoring at Pontefract last month; however, he's on a career-high mark in this more competitive race and a bare 5f may be his optimum trip; 12th in this last year and may again be vulnerable. |

9st 0lb |
Often leads; hard-working and tough filly who's added three more wins this year, all at 5f (on heavy, good and good to soft); has C&D form in Group company as well but beaten favourite on last two starts and this is no easier. |

3yo who has won two Listed races this season (5f, good/good to soft) and was a good second in a Group 3 at York (6f, good to soft) last month; solid fourth off lofty mark in Ascot handicap (5f, good) last Saturday; key player under 3lb penalty if the ground isn't an issue (showed promise in 2yo maiden last June on sole encounter with quick going). |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Had a fine year in 2023, winning five times including his finest hour in this race off a 13lb higher mark; signs of retaining ability this year, including for new yard, without managing to put his head in front; each-way claims but others are stronger for win purposes. |

12lb lower than when winning a Class 2 handicap at Ascot last October (5f, good to soft); 0-10 in 2024 but he retains ability and there has been clear promise in four runs for his new stable; hasn't shone in two previous visits here but something bigger is brewing. |

8st 13lb |
Has dropped to a mark 2lb lower than when winning a 15-runner handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) in May; capable if at the top of his game but that hasn't been the case on his five starts since that latest victory. |
33/1 |

7th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner; on the same mark as when beating 14 rivals in a valuable Newmarket handicap at the Guineas meeting; mixed bag since but he wasn't beaten far from a moderate draw at York last time and he has the ability to feature, for all there are risks involved. |
12/1 |

12th 6 (12) |
21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Consistency not his forte but there's a big engine there when the mood takes him, as when seeing off his 14 rivals in a 6f handicap at Newmarket's Guineas meeting; raced freely in a first-time visor at Ascot 11 days ago, left behind by Holkham Bay late on but having helped force a strong pace; not a solid option but a better effort wouldn't be a huge shock. |

21st Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
He was well backed when winning a small-field C&D handicap in May but even his most fervent supporters would have struggled to envisage the progress that has followed this summer, adding six more sprint handicaps and soaring up the weights; better than ever when second at York's Ebor meeting (5.5f, good to firm) last month, form that has been well advertised since; races off the same mark today and he is one of two good chances for Jim Goldie. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Began the season looking an exposed handicapper but he's made remarkable progress, winning seven times and climbing 29lb in the weights; early speed has been the feature of his wins and this track is likely to suit better than Ascot last time; Paul Mulrennan is back on board today and he shouldn't be passed over lightly. |
20/1 |

7th 3 (7) |
10th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Having a remarkable season, notching win number seven for the campaign at Hamilton last Saturday; with a 6lb rise he's up a total of 31lb since his first success in the spring, but he may not have reached his ceiling just yet; equally effective at 5f/6f, and good ground or firmer is ideal. |

Arrived on the scene late when winning at Redcar in June (5f, good to firm); better form when second in a Racing League handicap at Southwell 17 days ago, with Brave Nation a head behind in third; not sure to confirm those placings today. |
