29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D winner in 2022; an underwhelming 2024 campaign for new yard was swept aside when he came from last to first in a nine-runner race at Epsom (1m2f, heavy) last September, scoring in tidy fashion with first-time cheekpieces (kept since); however, pulled up lame in the November Handicap next time and tailed off at Epsom sole run this year. |

6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
An underwhelming campaign for new yard was swept aside when he came from last to first in a nine-runner race over C&D (heavy; his only visit here) last September, scoring in tidy fashion with first-time cheekpieces and never better; pulled up lame off this 5lb higher mark in the November Handicap on sole run since; good soft-ground record before that and won sole run on good to soft; considered if he gets that ground. |

9th Nov 2024 Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
His underwhelming campaign for new yard was swept aside when he came from last to first in a nine-runner race at Epsom (1m2f, heavy) six weeks ago, scoring in tidy fashion with first-time cheekpieces and never better; 5lb higher today and not proven over this far, but that win built on a good soft-ground record and he has won at 1m3f, so he enters calculations. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Inconsistent 5yo; lurks on a dangerous mark but usually runs over middle distances nowadays and was well beaten on last month's seasonal debut. |
20/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Useful for Ralph Beckett but nowhere near that level for this yard last year, albeit placed twice over 1m2f at Doncaster off his reduced mark at the end of last summer; off six months; the betting should help guide to expectations. |

16th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Off mark at fourth attempt, in Lingfield novice (1m2f, AW); good third of nine on handicap debut at Epsom (1m2f, heavy) puts him in the mix. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 (5) |
29th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Off mark at fourth attempt in Lingfield novice (1m2f, AW) this month; has also shown promise on good to soft (unraced on softer); this unexposed 3yo is in good hands to progress and could go well on handicap debut. |
6/1 |

Good to firm ground a possible excuse when brushed aside at 4-6 last time and his length second to 1-5 favourite and subsequent ready French Listed winner Ombudsman at Leicester the time before reads well. |

30th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Now 2lb lower than when winning at Epsom (1m2f, good) last summer but yet to hit top gear after three runs this season (1m2f-1m4f) and today's drop back to 1m may not be ideal; cheekpieces removed after one use. |

30th May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Gelded ahead of a fairly encouraging reappearance at Epsom (1m4f, good) in April but disappointing when seventh of nine at Lingfield (1m2f) 20 days ago on his first run on good to firm; that surface might be an excuse and he's now tried in cheekpieces; far from ruled out, albeit still needing to prove his stamina. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Three turf wins at up to about 1m2f (good to soft and soft), most recent in 2024; promising reappearance on AW in February but he hasn't done as well since and there was little in the locker at Hamilton recently. |
9/2 |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
It's now 15 starts since his last victory and he was tried in cheekpieces when a below-par seventh in 1m2f handicap at Nottingham last month; needs to take a big step forward. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
All wins have come in the spring, mainly on soft ground, but there was no win this time round; has his lowest mark since 2020 but easily his best show this season was in March; usually wears a visor or cheekpieces and now he's blinkered first time. |
25/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
All wins have come in the spring, with one on AW but mainly on soft turf; well handicapped on his best form last season but he's failed to beat a rival in his last two runs and needs a major revival after a break. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner whose losing run is up to 17 but he had dropped 14lb below his last winning mark when beaten less than a length into third of seven here four weeks ago; respected if building on that. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner who is versatile ground-wise; well handicapped on best form last season but he was out of sorts in the autumn and needs a major revival after six months off. |
6/1 |

7th 2 (5) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
11st 9lb |
Three handicap wins (one on soft) at 1m2f, the latest in July 2024; 11lb lower today but he's basically gone off the boil this season. |

29th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
His wins have come on good to soft (unproven on soft/heavy); dropping down the weights and the drop back in trip could help, but he was beaten a long way the last twice and needs to turn things around in first-time blinkers. |
9/1 |
|
11th 5 (10) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Lightly raced 4yo; tailed off on final start last term (his only run on soft) but third of six at Lingfield (11.6f, good) on reappearance this May was career-best form; 3lb lower today, following a poor show at Epsom (good to soft) on Derby Day; mixed messages there and not certain to get 1m6f. |

Useful Flat handicapper; best run over hurdles when runner-up in a novice at Newcastle in January; fair form on the Flat since following a wind op; non-runner 8.05 Aintree Friday. |
10/1 |

7th 5 (2) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
On a fair mark on her best Flat form for Harry Charlton; some promise over hurdles for new stable and 1m4f may have stretched her when back on the Flat at Thirsk two weeks ago. |
