28th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Made his breakthrough (11th attempt) in a Windsor handicap (1m, good to firm) in August; backed that up with a creditable fourth at Salisbury but he has taken a strong hold at times and his form nosedived at Yarmouth last week; bit to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back on this return to Polytrack. |

19th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |

Has got it together since upped to this trip (behind Claxton Bay last time) and today's mark could well be within range if he settles better into a bigger field; one to consider. |

Eight AW wins and latest was over C&D (April); backward steps in his two starts since, finishing last of seven on latest (C&D; 33-1) after two months off but he now drops back in class. |

Lost his way last backend for Michael Wigham and has run poorly in two starts for this yard; best efforts have come on Tapeta and he isn't obviously fancied. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Best known for his Newcastle work but goes well here too; consistent enough and the handicapper has given him a chance, back on the AW and given another try without the usual hood. |
5/1 |

4th 6 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ran respectably, albeit without being able to justify favouritism, at Chepstow latest start and is back on last winning mark; however, he's a quirky sort who comes with some risk; steps back up in class. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Five of his six wins have come on AW; didn't look straightforward without usual hood or tongue-tie (back on here) when fourth of seven at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; two things in his favour here are that he is the only distance winner in the field and this represents a drop in grade, so he needs to be considered seriously. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Dead-heated over 1m here last year off this mark but a rollercoaster ride for his backers in the meantime; another fair effort when 2l away on the AW three weeks ago but he's never the percentage call. |
16/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Only 1lb higher than when dead-heating at Brighton (1m, good) in May but he's been up and down since and was last of nine at Brighton last Monday; comes with risks attached and he's not the percentage call; cheekpieces removed. |
12/1 |

1st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Lost second to Headshot in closing stages of 1m2f classified race won by Celebrating Ethel here (good) last month but that was still a good effort and today's shorter trip probably suits him better; now only 1lb higher than when dead-heating over C&D in May and might be boosted by refitted cheekpieces. |

0-11, but having been raised in trip she ran one of her better races when third of 11 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) in October; this test will be even more demanding (was racing over 5f as recently as August); plenty to prove. |

21st Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Regressive maiden who's done a lot of her racing in sprints; pedigree offers some hope going this far for the first time, having stuck on late in first-time cheekpieces over 1m latest, and she has fewer convictions than most. |

Refitted with blinkers when finally gaining a first win (switched to front-running) in 7f classified event at Brighton eight days ago; a repeat of that form in retained headgear will see him firmly in the picture again. |
9/2 |

1st 7 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Still a maiden after 32 starts and sometimes races too freely but was respectable third in this grade at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) in June, after a break, and ought to be suited by this move back up in trip. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has claims on a couple of runner-up efforts over 6f (good to firm) last summer but he's still a maiden after 31 starts and was well held in classified events in his final two runs last winter; now returns to sprinting but he needs to revive after 165 days off. |

Off the mark at the 13th attempt when scoring with tongue-tie reapplied at Windsor (1m, good; 18-1) 12 days ago; that was a narrow win but he's only 3lb higher here and has possibilities if he can transfer his form back to AW. |

28th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Quirky type with a patchy record but he justified favouritism at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month and had an excuse when stepped back up to 1m2f at Brighton (took strong hold) last time; still looks feasibly treated on that penultimate form and has claims if he can bounce back again. |
