Reserve; has posted soft-ground wins this season at Hamilton (1m1f) and over C&D; however, he's finished merely mid-division in big fields the last twice (1m1f/1m, soft) and others are more compelling. |

Had little in hand when winning at Ascot (1m, soft) and off this 4lb higher mark the Cambridgeshire proved too tough a task; perhaps vulnerable unless the tongue-tie can make a difference. |

6th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Acts on heavy ground; placed off higher marks in a few major handicaps, including the Royal Hunt Cup over C&D, in 2023; seemed to need the run in the Bunbury Cup eight weeks ago on reappearance; highly respected in this easier-looking assignment. |

Placed in three major handicaps last term, including this one off 3lb higher (good to soft); now goes in tongue-tie on 2024 reappearance; likely player provided he returns in top form. |

12th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last month and has run well in defeat on his four starts since, on the latest finishing fourth of 31 in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket (1m1f, soft); one of two solid contenders for the yard. |

4th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
1lb lower than for his defeat of 16 rivals at the Craven meeting; only 1-16 on the AW but this is a drop in class from contesting strong handicaps and he's been running well; tends to run over 1m these days but has won at 7f. |

Down the field in this race last year but effective over C&D and back to the same mark as when seeing off 16 rivals at Newmarket's Craven meeting in April (1m, good); apprentice's claim useful and he's not ruled out. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Promising third in the Lincoln here (1m, soft) on his yard debut in March but largely disappointing since, failing to build on Haydock third when down the field behind a few of these at York 15 days ago; no surprise were he to go well back here under William Buick but he's hardly a solid one. |

Acts on soft and good to firm; inconsistent this term but is useful on his day; solid second at Sandown in June and ran respectably, despite traffic issues, in major 1m handicap at Goodwood on penultimate start; major chance off current mark. |

6th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Progressive on AW, winning twice (9.5f/1m2f); has failed to transfer that form back to turf (1m2f) in last two outings but gives the impression this return to 1m is worth exploring; difficult to write off. |
10/1 |

8th 6 (9) |
15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Major improver in 1m2f AW handicaps, quickening up smartly at Lingfield in March (hood discarded, now refitted; Andaleep back in third); said to have been unsuited by Chester's tight turns when way back there in May; needs to show he's as good on turf as AW but remains of interest. |
9/2 |

11th 1 (6) |
9th May 2024 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Big improver in AW handicaps this year, running out a decisive winner of a 14-runner race over 1m2f at Lingfield on Good Friday; a 5lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him if proving as effective on turf (9l second in a maiden on previous attempt). |

14th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Useful in his younger days but hasn't won in well over two years and the losing run now stands at 24; is always reliant on luck given his run style, which he hasn't had lately, but he's undeniably well handicapped now having been dropped another 4lb. |

27th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

In-frame efforts at Wolverhampton and Newcastle in recent weeks show this 9yo is in reasonable form but his losing run goes back to August 2022. |

15th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

Dual Group 3 winner in his prime; very much on the downgrade now but suggested he might be ready to exploit some help from the handicapper when a keeping-on third at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month. |
