7th 8 (5) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 34y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Made giant strides in the second half of 2024 and she carried on the good work when winning in Listed company at Haydock in May (5f, good); struggled at Royal Ascot but of more concern are her two sub-par efforts since; others look more solid. |
10/1 |

9th 7 (11) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
She has made giant strides since making her handicap debut off a mark of 69 at Haydock last July, winning five times, most recently in Listed race at Haydock in May (5f, good); only ninth at Royal Ascot but she raced furthest from the main action and still looked in peak form; drying ground wouldn't be ideal, though, and she has the widest stall to overcome. |
8/1 |

17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Progressive 4yo who made great strides in the autumn with a hat-trick at about 5f on heavy and soft ground; a recent Listed win at Haydock (5f, good) suggests she's still improving, but this is likely to be hard labour. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Acts on good to soft and softer but his best form is at 5f and latest last of six at Haydock needs forgiving; cheekpieces go on after that; nothing wrong with this mark if they do have a positive effect, however. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (6) |
21st May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins last summer (5f, good/good to firm) and didn't see out 6f when third of six on recent reappearance at Doncaster (6f, good to firm); has run well on slow ground in the past and he's a key player back down to 5f. |

4th Apr 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Two lengthy absences to his name and has lacked consistency since returning from 16 months off; this mark is within range if the first-time tongue-tie helps and he's on a going day but there are risks involved. |

4th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Two lengthy absences to his name and returns from a ten-week break today, having run below par at a short price latterly; otherwise he showed himself capable at this level in a couple of his runs last autumn and is one to consider. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Close third at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last month and another good run when runner-up at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) latest; contender. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Six-time winner who is dangerous at this level; just 1lb higher than for his AW win in March and he was back at that level when a close third at Windsor (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; this is his first visit to Brighton but likely to be in the thick of the action. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D scorer; not seen to best effect on his last three runs since scoring at Wolverhampton (5f) in March, going too freely from an outside draw when last of six at Bath (5f) last time; interesting from an easing mark. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Popped up from nowhere when winning in a first-time tongue-tie over C&D (soft) nine days ago; well drawn as it turned out that day and recent history suggests he's no certainty to repeat the effort, back up 4lb and into a better race. |
5/1 |
|
1st 4 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On a long losing run and he went too freely in first-time cheekpieces for his new yard when a below-par fourth of eight in 5f Lingfield handicap 18 days ago; tongue tied now with more required. |
14/1 |
|
4th 7 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All four wins when trained by Philip McBride, the last of which was in September 2024; sold for 6,000gns to join new yard in February; unseated when rearing at the start on stable debut; first-time cheekpieces go on and he's best watched. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No great love for softer surfaces these days, but her present good heart still carried her to second at Lingfield latest (good to soft); record of 13412 in C&D class 5s includes June's win (good to firm); chance. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (5) |
22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Refound some form last two outings for first and second at Yarmouth; best efforts last year were better still but, despite form on testing ground earlier in career, she came last of six on last season's two runs on soft. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won this race last year off a 5lb higher mark and came back to form when pulling away with one other over C&D a fortnight ago; has had her moments at the stalls and isn't the most consistent but will rightly be popular. |
