22nd Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Switched to AW the last twice, dead-heating at Kempton (7f) then well held at Newcastle; bits of encouraging turf form but this is a step back up in grade. |

21st Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Runner-up in two of his six starts on turf, the latest at Salisbury (7f, good) in May, and he may have just needed the run at Lingfield (7f, good) 11 days ago; one of his half-brothers won on the AW and so did his dam, so he may find a bit more improvement for the new surface. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Dead-heated at Kempton (7f, AW) last August; fourth in his first two starts this year and bounced back from a lesser effort when runner-up at Lingfield (7f, AW) nine days ago; 2lb well in and looks a contender. |
7/2 |

2nd 7 (1) |
26th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has raced 13 times, mostly on AW; hooded when creditable fourth over 7f on AW here and at Chelmsford this summer; form took a dip at Southwell last time but he's another that can't be totally ruled out. |

9st 1lb |
Longstanding maiden who didn't appear to get home when fourth in a classified at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) in August back in cheekpieces (retained); on a career-low mark and Hector Crouch booked (1-2 for the stable this year) but has become disappointing. |

25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Reliable sort who posted a solid fourth of 13 in 7f Southwell handicap 30 days ago; not ruled out in his bid for a breakthrough success. |
9/2 |
|
4th 1 (12) |
26th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
0-9 but finished runner-up in his first two career starts at this venue (7f/1m) at the start of the year; an extra furlong may suit him ideally now, but the drop in class and return here make him interesting. |
4/1 |
|
5th 7 (3) |
21st Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up in his first three starts earlier in the year and filled the same position with a tongue-tie added over C&D a fortnight ago; a stiffer test may suit him ideally, but still one for the shortlist off 1lb higher. |

Still a maiden but produced consistent AW form (32224) this winter for new yard, showing signs that he's capable of winning an ordinary sprint handicap; one for the shortlist back on turf. |

22nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was 13 months ago but he's run two promising races for James Owen this spring and was beaten less than 2l when sixth at Leicester (1m, good to firm; 9-2) last time; remains well handicapped on his old form and he shouldn't be far away. |
7/1 |

6th 2 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On a long losing sequence (for Darryll Holland) but he made a promising start for James Owen after a three-month layoff when second of 12 in 1m AW Lingfield handicap nine days ago; big shout nudged up 1lb. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Signed off for Darryll Holland with a below-par run at Kempton in January but had gone close off today's mark over C&D a few days earlier and it will be interesting to see what James Owen can do with him (same owner). |

Turf winner at 6f; maiden on AW and below best in two AW handicaps at this trip but he's dropped a few pounds since making his yard debut and remains of interest on autumn form with Rossa Ryan up for the first time. |

17th Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Left Andrew Balding after disappointing AW nursery run last December and finished last when a big-priced outsider for last month's stable debut; entitled to have benefited from that outing but has a lot to prove. |
40/1 |
|
9th 9 (5) |
21st Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Best effort for Andrew Balding when beaten less than a length into second of 11 in a 6f nursery here last November (does stay this far); makes her debut for her new yard (same owners) after eight months off and the market should indicate what is expected. |
