5th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Now 0-8 but does have some quite solid handicap form to his name this summer, particularly over this trip; weakened towards the finish when third of eight at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) five weeks ago; firmly in the mix with the drop back to 7f a help if anything. |

1st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Best form when runner-up at Salisbury in May (7f, good; rider said he hung left-handed); fair run when stepped up to 1m last time (not the best of runs); worth considering. |

4th Jul 2024 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |

Maiden who's run exclusively over 7f to date but again shaped as though ready for this trip, despite his sprint pedigree, last time; is one to consider for a yard among the winners. |

22nd Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Made a winning reappearance in a maiden over C&D in May and added a narrow success in a handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) in July; looked a non-stayer at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) last time, but worth a second look back at this trip after a short break. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins were in late 2022 and he has been looking regressive this year; wouldn't be the obvious answer after nearly three months off. |
8/1 |

27th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last win was over C&D but that was in a novice in December 2022; very well treated on old form but he's faded in his five runs this year and was beaten 15l at Chepstow (7-2) last time; had a difficult track position in that race but he needs a big turnaround back in trip. |
9/1 |

12th 2 (2) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since late 2022; has dropped in the weights and his reappearance effort at Doncaster wasn't a bad run but he failed to build on it at Salisbury a fortnight ago; others appeal more. |

5th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won on handicap debut at Kempton (7f) in May; ran with credit when reaching the frame on her next five starts (including here on good to firm) and something presumably can't have been right when well held at Newmarket four weeks ago; solid contender if that latest run is ignored. |
10/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
9th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won on handicap debut at Kempton in April (7f) and has continued to run well in defeat without looking ahead of her mark; seems fine at 7f or a mile; involved once more. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
11th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Made a successful return/handicap debut at Kempton (7f, AW) in April and has finished runner-up in three of her four outings since, the latest a narrow defeat at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago; up another 2lb, but in good order and she ran with credit on soft ground as a 2yo. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins on turf have been achieved on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in two comeback outings in recent months but eased 3lb and capable of bouncing back to form to a form with a bang. |
9/2 |
|
4th 10 (11) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All three wins on turf have been on the Newmarket July course (7f/1m) but he has been placed in two of his three starts over this C&D, including on soft; never featured on his reappearance 25 days ago and needs to build on that. |
16/1 |
|
10th 9 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent last term but won on the other Newmarket course (1m, good to firm) last June and he kept on well for third over 7f here (good) in September; possible player if at the top of his game on this reappearance. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Gradually back to form this term, most recently prevailing at Goodwood (6f, good to soft); has never won above Class 5 but she remains favourably treated, having defied current mark last term (over 7f). |
4/1 |
|
1st 8 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Strike-rate of 4-35; best run for a while when a front-running second at Lingfield (7f, good) and dropping back to 6f won't hinder, nor the slower ground; could have done with a higher draw ideally but should run well. |
13/2 |

2nd 8 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Out of the frame in her last ten starts, but is 4lb lower than when making all over C&D this time last year; by no means written off. |

Has won two of her four Polytrack handicaps, over 1m here last autumn and 1m2f at Chelmsford in October; creditable show back here last week but others perhaps more interesting now from a handicapping viewpoint. |

Record of 11137 since switched to this C&D, latest effort best forgiven (race wasn't run to suit); this hold-up mare could prove dangerous, provided the pace fractions are back in her favour. |
