18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Failed to win last season and absent since 17l defeat in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on AW in November; others have much less to prove. |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Won three times last year but he has gone without success in 12 runs in 2025; down the weights and last month's Pontefract effort can be upgraded, making up ground towards the middle of the track (slowly away after the blindfold was removed late too); dropped 1lb despite the promise of that effort and his dam was an AW winner; cheekpieces replace the blinkers worn on his last two starts; could be interesting. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner, the latest when scoring comfortably over 5f last month; easy wins in successive days in early September (good to firm and heavy); now 24lb higher than when starting his winning spree and he will require another career best to overcome latest 11lb rise; certainly can't be ignored though. |

Made it 3-3 since the blinkers were added when comfortably accounting for his two rivals over Brighton's extended 5f yesterday (good to firm); carries a double penalty here but he's fine on slow ground and couldn't be in better form. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't run badly at Pontefract 17 days ago (6f, soft) and he's not handicapped out of things on the best of this year's form; this might be a shade too competitive though. |

5th 5 (1) |
25th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner last November; successful at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May and went close at Pontefract in June; not quite at that level in his last three starts but he is unexposed on AW and the new tongue-tie could be beneficial. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Five wins include one on AW, over C&D in late 2024; beaten under a length three times on turf in 2025 and he wasn't far away in a recent C&D classified event after a short break; weights chance back in a handicap. |

3rd 7 (7) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Multiple turf sprint and C&D winner; losing run stands at 18 starts and although he went close on turf at Redcar in November, he was below par in two AW starts since. |
16/1 |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Close second at Redcar last time; 0-15 this year and ran poorly in last four AW attempts but defied a 10lb higher mark at Southwell a year ago; very attractively handicapped and enters calculations. |

9st 8lb |
C&D win last May and followed up at Lingfield (6f; both good to firm) one week later; now 14lb lower so he has handicapping claims, for all his recent efforts need bettering; stable also runs Cabeza De Llave. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

On the downgrade now but placed over C&D on two of his last three appearances; no match for Desdemona when second on latter occasion but now 11lb better off; can make his presence felt. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Four C&D wins but the latest was back in 2024 and he's struggled a bit here off this sort of mark in recent attempts; has been running well on turf of late, though, and he shouldn't be that far away. |
8/1 |

2nd 7 (1) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Made all to win a Class 6 handicap over C&D last month; not so good on his next two starts but returned to his recent best when a close second at Beverley ten days ago; runs off the same mark today and he's ideally drawn to attack; should go well. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 (3) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Scored over C&D (off 1lb higher) last summer and at Pontefract this spring but has proved inconsistent otherwise during that period; no banker to give his running. |

9st 8lb |
String of good runs in 2025, winning three times with the last of them coming in the Ayr Bronze Cup 248 days ago (6f, soft); 4lb higher mark to contend with and may come on for this return to action. |
7/2 |

19th Sep 2025 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb

Progressive since these cheekpieces went on, winning at Doncaster (5.5f, good) and Epsom (6f, good) and finishing a close third of 16 to Eternal Sunshine at Thirsk (6f, good) recently despite having to wait for a clear run; he's right at home on slow ground and could play a leading role. |
15/2 |

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Thriving on racing this year, following a second of 22 at York by winning in clearcut style at Epsom (6f, good) three weeks later; a further 6lb rise demands another career best but that's not out of the question. |

Two wins in Britain came on a sound surface; regressive since starting his Irish career promisingly with a second placing at the Curragh in the spring; hard to fancy having finished in rear when partnered by Colin Keane last time. |

Four-time turf winner who won off today's mark at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February; however, he's finished down the field on his last four starts and a major turnaround is necessary. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

In good form for much of the winter, winning three 5f handicaps, but his form has cooled on his last two starts; others look stronger in this grade. |
