6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Close to a career best when winning over 6f here (Class 3; 2-1 favourite; from 3lb lower) over Christmas; free and a beaten favourite twice since, so will need to drop the anchor if to make his presence felt over today's longer trip; others make more appeal. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (2) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Landed a gamble over C&D in December, his first run after a gelding operation; only third off this mark at Kempton last time where he was hamstrung by a refusal to settle; still lurks on an interesting mark and he is one to take seriously, even with the stable on a losing run of 25. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 7 (3) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Landed a gamble at Wolverhampton six weeks ago (6f), his first run since a gelding operation; well on top at the finish on that occasion and a 4lb rise looks extremely fair given the second, fourth and fifth have won since; good draw and lots to like. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Made a winning stable debut at Pontefract (6f, good) in April; never featured at Epsom on Oaks day but he was back in form when third of ten at Thirsk 19 days ago; each-way shout. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Got up late to win a 6f handicap at Pontefract on his stable debut in April; no impact in a 7f handicap at Epsom on Oaks day; others bring stronger credentials. |
12/1 |
|
13th 5 (12) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Considerable promise during light career for Karl Burke and better than ever when getting up close home in small field on his stable/seasonal debut at Pontefract (6f, good); there can be optimism that he will be fine back up to 7f and on slower ground, and he could have more to offer; contender. |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
He has yet to start at a bigger price than 9-4 in his nine races but he has won only one of them; hard to fault his consistency but he is edging up the weights and might prove vulnerable for win purposes once again. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 4 (6) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Most consistent since his debut a year ago (22331323); gelded since beaten two necks into third of four at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) a month ago; possesses plenty of early pace and this sharp track may prove ideal. |
2/1 |
|
4 (7) |
2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Never out of the first three in seven starts, making a winning reappearance in a Catterick novice (5f, good) in May and going down by only a neck in a handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago; up 1lb but still a major player. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
His four wins have all come over 6f on the AW and he's 0-10 on turf; having a rare start over 5f tonight and will need to improve on recent efforts. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All four wins have been over 6f on the AW, the most recent at Kempton in March; below his best on turf in recent starts but did have an excuse (saddle slipped) at Bath four days ago; best watched. |
14/1 |
|
9th 1 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
All four wins have been on AW over 6f; below form back on turf on his last two starts and blinkers worn for the first time, at Chepstow 15 days ago, are persevered with; best to wait until he returns to AW. |

16th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Glimpses of ability in three attempts in 5f-6f novice/maidens; an opening mark of 58 looks fair, so it will be interesting to see how he does over this longer trip as a half-brother to the 1m4f winners Ouja and Ambling. |
7/1 |

5th 4 (6) |
13th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Take out the long odds-on winner and it was a modest race in which he finished an 11l fourth at Nottingham (6f; good); bred to want further than this. |

1st 1 (13) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
16-race maiden but he was runner-up three times last season and wasn't beaten far when fifth in new headgear at Kempton (6f, AW) 11 days ago; that was eye-catching from off the pace and he's in the mix back up in trip. |
5/1 |
|
5th 6 (4) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
15-race maiden but he did finish runner-up on three occasions last year (twice on the AW); however, he's been down the field in three starts this year and drops back in trip with a bit to prove; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
9/1 |
|
8th 8 (1) |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
14-race maiden; no impact in his two runs this year (following a wind operation) and the addition of cheekpieces isn't enough to tempt. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Landed a gamble over C&D 12 months ago (in this combination of accessories for the first time); ended 2025 quietly and he was well beaten on last month's return to action (no accessories); has plenty to prove but it wouldn't be a total bolt from the blue were he to revive. |
16/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole victory came first time up last season, back from a similar break, so has that in his favour; lost his way in 2025, however, and the usual hood and tongue-tie are both missing. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two 6f wins last year and registered a third when coming out on top in a good tussle at Yarmouth (good to firm) in late May; up to this grade and caught a little wide when last of seven at Salisbury ten days ago, however. |
9/1 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Narrowly beat a subsequent scorer (pair clear) at Yarmouth last time, taking his record over 6f to 3-6; may be capable of further progress kept to this distance; respected. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
His form has been up and down this year but he won at Kempton (6f, AW) in March and was back to his best when making all over this C&D (firm) in May; key player if at the top of his game after a 50-day break. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His last two wins have come when making all in Class 6 handicaps at Kempton over 6f; yet to win on turf but he has gone well on fast ground in the past; Rossa Ryan booked and he should give it a good go from the front. |
