Both wins, including one over hurdles, came in a hood, which is absent as he returns from wind surgery after three months off; had plenty of chances off this sort of mark last year. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
For one who has been a model of consistency for much of his career it is slightly disconcerting that he has been well below form in three of his last four starts; the lesser runs have been in Class 5 events and his standout recent effort came when faced with Class 6 opposition, missing out by just a head at Lingfield in February (1m2f, AW); has run well over C&D in the past and a revival could be forthcoming back down in grade. |
13/2 |

10th 6 (12) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won twice over 1m2f in 2025, on good ground at Goodwood and AW at Lingfield; this mark not excessive but he needs to rebound quickly from a heavy defeat at Doncaster six weeks ago; yard going well. |
10/1 |
|
14th 4 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Successful over this trip on Polytrack at Lingfield in December and mostly creditable efforts since, including second back at Lingfield (1m2f again) last time; just as effective on turf (won at Goodwood off 1lb lower last summer); acts on soft; has to enter calculations. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
1m winner in 2024; well held in both handicaps over hurdles and tries a tongue-tie; risky. |
14/1 |
|
5th 10 |
20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
1m Flat winner in September 2024 when trained by the Kublers; yet to make the frame in four starts over hurdles but has time on his side; hood worn on last two starts is left off; may do better at some point. |
16/1 |
|
8th 10 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
1m Flat winner in 2024; has run three times over hurdles, on second occasion showing modest form on New Year's Day on debut for this yard; not so good when hooded on soft ground next time and he refused to enter the stalls for a Flat race four weeks ago; bit to prove. |

9th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-13 under rules; some promise when first handicapping for Eve Johnson Houghton, but has gone badly the wrong way; drops significantly in trip with cheekpieces given a go this time. |
33/1 |

10th 10 (8) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Best run came when third of 12 here (7f) in September 2024 but has been in the doldrums since signing off for Eve Johnson Houghton later that year; impossible to fancy despite a new headgear combination. |
66/1 |

4th 3 |
19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |

Flat form has deteriorated badly this year and he remains a maiden under that code; difficult to fancy. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Bath novice when with Marcus Tregoning whom she left for 8,000gns; only seventh on recent handicap debut here over 1m. |
7/1 |
|
7th 5 (12) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Bought for 8,000gns out of Marcus Tregoning's yard last October having won a five-runner Bath novice over 1m2f in testing ground in 2024; didn't progress in handicaps last year but quite interesting off a decent mark on stable debut. |
12/1 |
|
10 (7) |
13th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
A fair 1m2f juvenile winner but lightly raced this term, cheekpieces on when a fair fifth of 13 in 1m2f Bath handicap 13 days ago; possibilities from a falling mark. |

9st 8lb |
Bath win in April (1m, good to firm) came off a 1lb higher mark; placed three times last month but she ran poorly in a 7f handicap at Leicester three weeks ago; others are more appealing. |
