3rd 2 (5) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
He was making his seasonal debut when only fifth in this race 12 months ago but he's been kept on the go this winter and has been better than ever; suspicion others will prove better handicapped here though. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
He has been a fine servant to connections and added wins eight and nine to his tally in 2025, the latest a 1m handicap at Kempton in November; ran as well as he ever has when second to an upwardly mobile 4yo over C&D five weeks ago but even that effort will need bettering in this field. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Has gained both handicap wins at Chester, including over the bare 7f at this meeting (good) in May 2024; respectable fifth in this last year; a reappearance run over 6f at the Newmarket Craven meeting could have put him spot on for this; likely to be in the mix here again. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (6) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has course form and is capable of being involved; however, has gained both handicap wins at Chester, latest in May 2024, and may be more interesting back there with this reappearance under his belt. |
9/1 |

2nd 5 (5) |
1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Three wins, all around a left-hand bend, but the latest was back in May 2024; has run some solid races in defeat this year and showed promise at this track on his debut; others are more persuasive. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Best form this season when placed twice at Haydock, including latest start; still on a workable mark but continues on a long losing sequence, which makes him a similar type to Billyjoh. |
16/1 |
|
3 (2) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Record over C&D includes a success in May 2023 and solid second on reappearance this term; disappointing favourite here on penultimate start and losing run is mounting up; best form certainly gives him a good chance off current mark back down in grade. |
7/1 |
|
11 (1) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Disappointing favourite at Haydock last Saturday, extending his long losing sequence; beaten twice in this contest (seventh in 2023, well held in 2024) and can be opposed. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
As usual, he was held up before breezing through the field to win the Balmoral Handicap over 1m here last October (soft; 4lb lower); needs to put this season's performances behind him but arrives here fresh and rain would heighten interest. |
12/1 |
|
8th 2 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 11y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Held up; excellent 2024 in handicaps on varied ground culminated in his Balmoral triumph at Ascot (1m, soft) in October; never having raced beyond 1m asks a question but he saw it out well that day and has a form chance if putting this month's reappearance (18-1 in Listed race) well behind him. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (7) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Shaped well in a few top handicaps prior to deservedly landing a big pot in the Balmoral at Ascot (1m, soft) last October; whether his hold-up style lends itself to a Listed race around here remains to be seen but he's a big player on form if ready to roll after nine months off. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Enhanced his fine Chester record when a length winner there in late August (extended 7f; good to firm; acts on soft); the 4lb rise elevates him to a career-high mark which could be troublesome in this deep a handicap. |
40/1 |
|
1st 9 (8) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Won over 7f here (good to soft) last August and runner-up in good 7f handicaps elsewhere on his last two starts (good to firm/good to soft); should be fine at today's distance and every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

Hasn't fulfilled the promise shown when runner-up to Economics then Lead Artist (1m, good to soft/good) in the spring on his first two starts; unraced on soft/heavy ground; however, this 3yo remains lightly raced and may benefit from today's step up in trip; not written off. |

Useful efforts when runner-up to Dante winner Economics and recent Glorious Goodwood Group 3 scorer Lead Artist on his first two starts; beaten at 30-100 at Windsor last time but he found himself at the back of the field after a slow start and can be given another chance. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |

Campaigned back in Bahrain since December, best efforts when placed twice over 6f; well treated on historical data but hasn't won a domestic race since 2023; returns to 7f for first time since last July. |

14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |

Returned to form when third of 14 at Thirsk (6f, good) recently and he retains the same mark, which is 6lb lower than when 3l fourth of nine in this last year (soft); might not be far away. |

3rd 2 (13) |

9st 9lb |
Ended winless 2025 campaign with a placed effort in an above-average seller; starts his 2026 season off 8lb below his last winning mark but chance partly depends on the weather as he's best on ground softer than good. |
20/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
All five wins have been on good or slower including over C&D; hasn't been at his best this season but there have been some respectable efforts and he didn't get the breaks in a hot seller at Chester (5l third of eighth) 12 days ago; continues to drop down the weights and he could be dangerous back in a handicap. |

Won twice for Richard Fahey in the summer of 2024 but lost his way; sold for 10,000gns to join new yard in October; gambled on but well held on stable debut at Thirsk (7f, good) last month in first-time cheekpieces (now removed); may be worth another chance off sliding mark. |
6/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

2-25 for Richard Fahey, the wins coming in 2024 (one over C&D); left that yard out of form and for 10,000gns; historically well handicapped if Adam Kirby can get him going again; tries cheekpieces; market interesting. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

All seven wins have been on good or slower ground on turf; last success was in 2023 but he's well treated on old form and made some late gains when sixth of 15 at Nottingham (8.3f, good) last month; wasn't beaten far in that race and he could go well again on this step back up in trip. |

Dual 7f winner (good to soft/heavy) and he was placed off higher marks than this when trained by Pam Sly last year; below his best in two starts since returning to this yard but he did have excuses at Newmarket 27 days ago having stumbled at the start and sat up with a strong pace; chance now dropped in grade. |
