Close second at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March when 5lb higher; however, unable to replicate that form across his three starts since and he's won just one of his 17 outings. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sole turf success came at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in August; he is now 16lb higher after a productive spell on AW and finished 12l adrift when returned to turf over C&D last month; down the list despite his yard being in fine form. |
33/1 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three 1m wins on Southwell AW this year; has also won on turf but he's 15lb higher than when last seen on grass in the autumn so needs to show his form on this surface can keep pace with the AW improvement. |
5/1 |

2nd 2 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Record over C&D currently reads 22115112; didn't look to have any excuses in a race run to suit here three weeks ago and it's possible he's reached his ceiling mark now, but he's ultra consistent and looks set to get involved once again. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to win on turf (0-12); hasn't managed to beat many rivals in three starts this year, only eighth of nine at Catterick (7f; 28-1) 24 days ago; handicap mark continues to slide. |
20/1 |

8th 5 (7) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
He's 1lb lower than when winning at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last September and is also effective on turf; however, following a break he's finished down the field on grass on his last two starts; has to get back on track. |

Not easy to assess given he followed breakthrough win on Polytrack (7f) with abject performance, albeit on ground that was deemed unsuitable; this is quite a quick turnaround. |

Emphatic scorer over 1m here in July; good second back here (1m again) next time but not in the same form twice since and remains 9lb above July's winning mark. |
11/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Certainly didn't miss the hood when emphatically doubling her tally at Southwell in July (1m); those conditions when chasing home stablemate then done no favours by a wide draw; others appeal more from a handicapping perspective. |
9/1 |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Doubled her tally at this track when winning in good style over C&D in July before another good effort when second of 13 here ten days ago; now steps up in grade but she can't be discounted. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Never figured at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) four weeks ago, but his previous form on Tapeta this year reads well (33161123) including a win over C&D; major player if putting that latest effort behind him. |
7/1 |

8th 6 (8) |
30th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well held on turf at Carlisle last time (first start for 54 days) but all three of his wins have been on the AW, two over 8.6f at this track; the return to this surface is a positive and he could go well. |
14/1 |

6th 1 (9) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Hit a good vein of form on AW earlier in the year, winning three times including over this sort of trip at Wolverhampton in March; 0-11 on turf but it was a fair effort when fifth at Doncaster last June and he's not ruled out. |

All three wins have come over 6f including one here; not very consistent, though, and a suspicion that this trip stretches him. |

21st Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Reportedly suited by step up to 8.6f (from 7f) when beating three rivals on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (AW; front pair clear) in August but was disappointing odds-on favourite over 9.4f there 12 days ago (raced too freely), and is not easy to predict now back at 7f and with blinkers tried. |

9th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Didn't show much in three qualifying runs but, having been gelded, he improved to make a successful nursery debut here (8.6f) 24 days ago; up 5lb but the longer trip can help and he's not fully exposed just yet. |

Middle-distance bred gelding; made encouraging nursery debut when keeping on well from the rear for third at Epsom (7f, good) last month, and his outside draw may not be a significant disadvantage if patient tactics are planned again here. |

3rd 9 (9) |
16th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |

Modest form in three novice runs; he's been gelded since and could take a step forward but such progress is a must. |

9st 9lb |
Now back on same mark as for narrow C&D (good) win just over a year ago but this season's record is unconvincing (last month's C&D third of four came in a tactical contest) and he refused to race here 17 days ago. |
16/1 |

2 (9) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |

Got off the mark when landing this equivalent race (good) last August off 1lb lower; hasn't been beaten far twice over C&D this summer and cannot dismiss. |

3rd 5 (3) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |

Got off the mark at the ninth attempt over C&D last August; yet to hit top form this summer, although saddle reportedly slipped when sixth of eight over C&D four weeks ago; not out of things. |
