Won this in 2021 (good) and he's run well to finish second on three of his last four starts (1m4f/1m5f, good); capable of having a big say provided he handles conditions (unproven on slow ground). |

13th Aug 2024 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |

Patchy campaign this season and needs to raise his game, but he's dropped down the weights and last year's best efforts came in blinkers, which go back on this evening (replacing cheekpieces); not discounted. |
14/1 |

5th 8 (4) |
21st Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |

Yet to win (12 races) and not the easiest of rides but he's been on the premises plenty of times at 1m6f-2m, including when cheekpieces were installed at this track (claimer ridden) and Nottingham on last two outings; good each-way claims. |
6/1 |

6th 9 (11) |
6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Yet to win and he isn't the easiest of rides but he's run some good races at 1m6f and improved for his reappearance when fourth at Redcar (good to firm; acts well on good) 14 days ago; not far away. |

Has run well all three starts over C&D, latterly when just ahead of Quercus Robur and some way behind Alex The Great; she's never won under either code, though, and a place may again be the best she can hope for. |

Not yet off the mark but he's gone close on his last two starts and he came from well back to go close over C&D last week, the pair well clear; has every chance off the same mark. |

17th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
15-race maiden who came closest to winning when beaten a head at Hamilton (1m3f, heavy) 13 days ago; 2lb higher and unplaced in six previous attempts on the AW, but he still has to make the shortlist in this field. |
5/2 |

14-race maiden; close over C&D and at Musselburgh (1m4f) on two of his last three outings, with a strong finish last time; his only two runs on soft ground (both this term, including penultimate start) are a worry. |

0-11 but was short-headed in first-time blinkers (retained) over 1m3f here (good to firm) ten days ago, when well clear of the third; he's a contender if backing up that latest run and coping with the slower ground. |

3rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |

Well handicapped on his AW form at up to 1m earlier in the year; best run since switching to turf when stepped up to 1m2f at Ayr (good) four weeks ago but he wasn't strong at the finish and it remains to be seen whether this slightly longer trip suits; wears first-time blinkers. |
