8th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won his novice on heavy going last October (5f); placed in three of his four starts this year, most recently behind Emporess over C&D last week; each-way shout again. |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Heavy-ground winner as a 2yo; placed twice (5f/7f, good/good to firm) in the spring and faced a stiffer task in Class 3 since; fresh contender who could go well back down in trip/grade. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 5lb |
Can miss the break and is usually ridden from off the pace; won a Brighton handicap (5.3f) by a wide margin on Tuesday for Jude Fernandes; that made it three wins from his last four starts and he is a leading player under his penalty. |
4/6 |

1st 1 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Scored on the AW in March and recorded his first win on turf over C&D (good) four weeks ago; tends to be slowly away but finishes strongly; holds strong claims to go in again off 4lb higher. |
9/4 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Sole success in 12 starts came on the AW but he has run well on various surfaces on turf; has proved inconsistent since returning in February, though, and he can miss the break. |

25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
A repeat of the form which netted him a C&D second last month (good to firm) off today's mark would take him close; hard to blame his Doncaster flop since on the return to a 1m trip he has won over before. |
8/1 |
|
11th 15 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Back in better form over 7f at Doncaster and Leicester the last twice; still attractively treated, having gained sole handicap win off 12lb higher (over 1m); respected. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 8 (7) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His form has deteriorated since his last win last May but he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) nine days ago; has another career-low mark today and is not ruled out. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
No impact in three handicap runs, suffering heavy defeats in two outings in blinkers this summer; goes without headgear now down into 0-55 company but he's not a solid option. |
14/1 |
|
8 (4) |
16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Fourth of seven in Bath novice (5f, heavy) in October was the best of his juvenile efforts but he's raced freely in two starts since, including when weakening a fair way out in first-time blinkers (retained) on his reappearance at Nottingham (8.5f, good) at the start of June; unexposed and the return to sprinting may help. |
10/1 |
|
4 (9) |
1st Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Fourth of seven in Bath novice (5f, heavy) in October looked the best of his four runs as 2yo; took a strong hold when trying 7f in a nursery next time; blinkered for this reappearance and needs to take a step forward. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Modest maiden at his best in 2024 and 2025; not so good for new yard this year but latest start, when wearing first-time cheekpieces over 7f, was at least a step back in the right direction. |
16/1 |
|
5th 9 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
When fifth of 14 at Beverley (7.4f, good) last month he was trapped wide and failed to settle, so that run wasn't without promise, but he's since been well beaten at Newcastle (6f, AW) and is now 0-13; cheekpieces go on; plenty to prove. |
25/1 |
|
9th 11 (10) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-12 and has failed to threaten on either start this year but when fifth of 14 at Beverley (7.4f, good) last Tuesday he was trapped wide and failed to settle; his best run last year came when 2l fourth at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in May off 8lb higher; the return to a sprint trip may bear fruit. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Beverley seller last May but then struggled for two yards; this easier for another new stable and he ran well first time out last season, which gives hope after eight months off. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner in May; hasn't proved the easiest to catch right since, 11th in 5f Newcastle handicap four days ago, but not ruled out if first-time cheekpieces spark a resurgence. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
A dual 1m4f AW winner (also scored over hurdles) in 2025; running with credit without winning this season until only fourth of five at Beverley (1m4f) 13 days ago; he's the sort to bounce back in a change of headgear. |
100/30 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Three wins in 2025, two on the AW (1m4f) and once over hurdles; banging at the door on turf this summer, second over C&D ten days ago when not enjoying a clear run; another good run seems likely. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a maiden hurdle at Musselburgh in November; did his best work late when runner-up at Redcar (1m6f, good) last month but he's lacked the pace to challenge in two starts since over this trip; visor goes back on for cheekpieces. |
