5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
All four of his wins were on soft or heavy ground, three at Goodwood; runner-up on his only two visits here, including at this meeting (good to soft) last year and he's 1lb lower today; that was over 8.5f and his creditable fifth on reappearance ten weeks ago was in the 1m Lincoln at Doncaster, but he stays 1m2f; strong each-way claims. |

On a reduced mark and this two-time C&D scorer can't have the ground soft enough; not at his best at Goodwood on Saturday. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Just second outing for Geoff Harker when runner-up off 1lb higher at Haydock (1m, good) last May but never involved when dropped to 7f at York the following month and not seen since (gelded); this is a tough race to return in. |
14/1 |
|
12th 4 (13) |
14th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Just second outing for current yard when adding to his good Haydock record with a closing second over 1m three weeks ago; slight doubts as to whether the drop back to 7f will be ideal but his mark is definitely workable. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 7 (14) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 37y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Won over C&D (good) for Roger Varian last summer and another fine effort over C&D when second on soft in the autumn; changed hands for 110,000gns after final 3yo start; never involved in the Lincoln at Doncaster on reappearance for new yard but he did meet trouble in running; stall 14 could make life tricky. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
0-16 on turf but usually runs his race; runner-up at this track (10.5f, good) when last seen in May; may find this on the sharp side having not been seen in races less than 1m since his juvenile days. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 7 (12) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Without a win since his second start as a 2yo, but several good efforts since as when beaten a length into third of 24 in the Newbury Spring Cup (1m, good ) last month; Ryan Moore keeps the ride and rain shouldn't be an issue, but the draw could have been kinder. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 16 (22) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
On a 14-race losing sequence but he was runner-up three times last term, including when beaten a head at Glorious Goodwood (1m1f, good); went off third favourite in a big field at the Curragh on reappearance but didn't give his running; on a retrieval mission with Ryan Moore booked. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins over 7f/1m on good and soft ground in the summer of 2024; looked about ready to strike when second of 12 at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) in June and now 3lb lower, but modest in both starts since; something to prove attempting this far for the first time. |
16/1 |

8th 11 (3) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Absent since having an excuse (track position) when beaten favourite in the Carlisle Bell three months ago; largely consistent otherwise and ran creditably over C&D earlier in June; rebound plausible. |
10/1 |
|
5 (5) |
25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent sort who won three times last year (7f/1m, good/soft) and kept on for second at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) recently; the forecast slow ground is in his favour and he's high on the list for his in-form yard. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Ended long losing run when successful in a 1m4f AW handicap at Lingfield in April; ran well on his next two starts and when down the field on last month's return to action at Kempton (after 11 weeks off) it was in a higher grade than this; handles testing ground and has a good amateur booked; one for the shortlist. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (5) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a competitive handicap at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in April before being placed on his next two starts, but he was tailed off over this C&D in May; a 77-day break may have done him some good and he could bounce back. |
20/1 |
|
12th 14 (6) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
High marks for consistency of late and belatedly doubled his tally at Lingfield last month (1m4f, AW); better form when going down by a nose under same conditions next time and it wasn't much of a drop off when third at Windsor last week; hard to rule out. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Third in first-time visor (retained since) at Chester (1m2f, good to soft) last month and runner-up at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) since; solid claims. |
7/1 |
|
5 (2) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins at 1m and the latest was in May of last year; however, competitive in 1m/1m2f handicaps for current yard and unlucky not to be closer than 2l at Chester last time. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 8 (11) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
His last win was 16 months ago but that was off 3lb higher at Newmarket (1m, good); held in fourth of ten on stable debut at Chelmsford (7-2) last month but he had to use up some energy to get a prominent position from a wide draw; looks worth another try at this trip and he's not ruled out on second run for James Owen; visor added. |

9st 0lb |
Went close in sole AW attempt; heavy-ground success in September confirmed that she seems a mudlark on turf; raced too freely last time; even if she settles better, this is a tough assignment. |

Found it tough in May/June but her sights have been lowered and she won an eight-runner handicap at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) two weeks ago from Arkhalia Flynn; 7lb higher today but that win came in dominant fashion. |
