Not at his best in two runs back but goes in headgear (worn for all four wins) again and has Rossa Ryan, who boasts a good record for the yard, up tonight; better can be expected. |

1st Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless in his first eight starts, but now bids for a hat-trick after wins on good ground at Chepstow (7f) and Windsor (1m, first-time cheekpieces) last month; another 3lb rise fair enough, but he would have made more appeal on drying ground. |

Hasn't built on the promise of his debut second at Newbury in June last year; made the frame for the first time since when fourth of 14 over C&D (good to soft) eight days ago for new yard, when he attracted support; needs to show a bit more. |

Triple C&D winner for Robyn Brisland in 2021 and came good for current stable at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in June, having reportedly benefited from the reapplication of a hood; reverted to her free-going tendencies when midfield on consecutive outings without a hood last month, though, and the headgear is again missing here. |

Gained two of his six wins over this C&D, the latter in June; versatile ground-wise and seemingly on a workable mark but didn't fire here last week (raced too freely) and is unreliable. |

Landed a gamble at Bath when dropped in trip in October and went on to win course handicaps (6f and 5f) in consecutive days one week later; unable to lead and refused to settle when in behind runners at Southwell last time, beaten 4l at the finish; wouldn't use that run as conclusive evidence the handicapper has his measure. |

Has flourished since sprinting and was far from extended when bringing up a quickfire hat-trick, at Newcastle (5f) ten days ago; raised 6lb but Jack Doughty, up for first two wins (including at 6f), takes off 5lb; first course run but likely he's still ahead in the handicapping game. |
