9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Third in 2yo Group 2 in 2024; ran respectably off a falling mark on a few occasions last season but he's struggled in two 1m handicaps (good to soft/good to firm) this spring; has plenty to prove and overall record is now 1-14. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Third in 2yo Group 2 in 2024; unable to reproduce that promise last season and well beaten in last month's Spring Mile on stable/seasonal debut; however, he has a reduced mark to work with and his new trainer may well find the key to him sooner rather than later; the returning visor may be a plus. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Ties in with Desperate Dan on the C&D form shown on final start for Ed Bethell but it remains to be seen whether that 50-1 effort is backed up; gelded since; still in same ownership; gained sole win in 2yo maiden. |

Twice placed at 6f for Alice Haynes, had an excuse on final start; hard to assess; in-form yard also represented by the race-fit Charanda. |

8th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Kept on quite well for fifth on nursery debut here (7f, good to soft) and 1m was perhaps too far last time; unraced on ground this slow and 6f is another doubt, but she has a race in her off this sort of mark. |

16th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Glimpses of ability in three attempts in 5f-6f novice/maidens; an opening mark of 58 looks fair, so it will be interesting to see how he does over this longer trip as a half-brother to the 1m4f winners Ouja and Ambling. |

13th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Take out the long odds-on winner and it was a modest race in which he finished an 11l fourth at Nottingham (6f; good); bred to want further than this. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
C&D winner on stable debut last April (good to firm) but quiet at the end of 2025; fair fifth of 12 at Bath (5.5f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces replaced blinkers) on reappearance; needs to build on that. |
9/1 |

5th 8 (4) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won stable debut at Nottingham last April (6f, good to firm) but she's gone the wrong way since and was a well-held eighth in her final two runs last year; has something to prove but she's on a reduced mark and her win came after a similar-length absence; first-time cheekpieces. |
16/1 |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |

Hasn't kicked on from a successful stable debut at Nottingham in April (6f, good to firm); now 2lb lower but needs a revival. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Struggled in her three qualifying runs and same story on handicap debut at Southwell (7f, AW) two weeks ago; still early days but she needs a transformation back in trip. |
33/1 |

12th 13 (6) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Offered little in a pair of 6f juvenile maidens for James Horton and (after ten months off) for her new yard when eighth in 7f Leicester novice 34 days ago; needs this switch to handicaps to yield major improvement. |
20/1 |
