20th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 4 |

Similar profile to Wild Clary having improved to be second in his last two races and bumped into a useful one last time (6f); should be up to winning races off this mark. |

Built upon encouraging debut when second of eight at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last month, despite racing a bit too freely and still showing his inexperience; can make further progress and play a major role here. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to win a handicap but not for a lack of effort and he ran well for second over C&D last month; perhaps stretched by 1m2f at Lingfield last month and he is one to take seriously back down in trip. |
3/1 |
|
11th 8 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Sole win came in a Lingfield maiden (6f, AW) a year ago, but is back off the same mark as when beaten half a length over C&D (good to firm) in May; soft ground not a problem and each-way claims if reproducing that form. |

Record is only 1-15 and it's 15 months since the win; however, has clear possibilities on these terms switched to a seller, provided he takes well to added blinkers. |
5/2 |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Bumped into one at Haydock and his subsequent flop as favourite can be ignored, with him said to have pulled too hard on soft ground; this mark ought to be within range. |
8/1 |
|
4 (2) |
2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |

Reduced mark and showed signs of a return to form in a first-time tongue-tie (retained since) at Ffos Las in June; duly stepped up when second of 12 at Haydock (7f, good) last month; back up 3lb and another for the shortlist. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A maiden after 28 starts, with tendencies to start slowly and race too freely, but has made the frame on his last five appearances, including two seconds in this grade at Brighton (6f, good to firm) this summer; fine over 7f and a likely contender once again; has tried various headgear combinations this year; goes in just the refitted cheekpieces today. |
6/5 |

4th 5 (1) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Exposed 27-race maiden; runner-up in 6f classified events at Brighton on his last two starts (beaten favourite on each occasion); should run his race but others appeal more for win purposes. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 13 (8) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Yet to add to his 2yo maiden win in 2024 and this year's form for new trainer has generally been disappointing; not the most obvious answer. |

10th 10 (1) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

1-30; well treated in the pick of last year's form, but his more recent efforts, including four for this yard, suggest a resurgence is needed. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Turf maiden winner who showed spark as recently as January (AW) and he's dropped down the weights; however, he's struggled on grass on his last two starts and a major turnaround is needed in first-time blinkers. |
16/1 |
|
14th 15 (4) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
On a competitive mark on his best form and he's effective on soft ground; this lightly raced 4yo might have needed the run at Bath 16 days ago following a break but he's inconsistent and others are more compelling. |

Contrasting performances on the other track here (7f) since being gelded, winning at the Craven meeting in April then well below par in May; not sure what to expect from him on July course debut. |

17th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Has seen plenty of action since his debut last June but he resumed his progress back on turf after a gelding operation when scoring over C&D (good; cheekpieces removed) last month; up 5lb but that was a comfortable success and this return to quicker ground is no problem; shortlisted. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |

9/2 |

1st 5 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |

Readily won back to back last July (made all) and went down by a head in October (all 1m2f on turf); much more like it when tackling 1m4f for the first time at Salisbury 13 days ago, finding just an Andrew Balding 3yo too strong; will need to settle better if she's to see this trip out best. |

9st 3lb |
In top hands and returned to form with fair fifth of eight in first-time blinkers over C&D (soft) recently on second nursery start; however, he needs to raise his game if he's to get off the mark today; a first-time visor replaces the blinkers (has now worn new headgear on each of last three runs). |

Promising 2yo for Owen Burrows (RPR 83); 0-20 in Ireland for Denis Hogan, with 2026 offering no sign of a revival in his fortunes; starts out for a new yard off a lowly mark so worth a precautionary market check. |
