16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Added two more wins in 2025, at 1m (good to soft) and on this track (7f, soft; made all); back on his last winning mark but this year's efforts lag behind what will be needed today. |

1st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Realistically weighted on his best efforts last year and his second run in March was better than the first; however, his AW exploits are unconvincing. |

6th 4 (13) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
1m on good to soft ground no problem and he is feasibly weighted on his best efforts last year; should be sharper with his recent return to action under his belt and he has the assistance of a leading amateur in the saddle; one for the shortlist. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Mixed results in higher grades on turf of late; has a better strike-rate (4-10) on AW and looks interesting returned to this sphere off 1lb below last winning mark. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Never in contention in the Ayr Silver Cup last week; mark not beyond him judged on this year's best but he has few secrets now. |

18th 21 (17) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Has a useful strike-rate on the AW but just 1-18 on turf; suffered some interference over C&D on his latest 6f start in July but he looks to have his share of weight relative to the company he keeps today. |

Awarded the Pontefract handicap last month in which Valentine Catcher passed the post first; not so good in either run since, the latest at Doncaster on Saturday, and others appeal more. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins over 6f at Pontefract on good and good to soft, most recently when awarded a race last month, but he was never involved in a higher grade there since and recent 7f attempts suggest others will have the legs of him late on. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
6yo who has a regressive profile but he kept on into mid-division over 7f here (good to soft) three weeks ago and the return to 1m and more testing ground could be in his favour, with both wins having come on heavy going; interesting contender off an ever-falling mark. |
9/1 |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Gained his Irish wins on heavy ground and he produced a clear best effort for current yard on soft (now 9lb lower) when fourth of nine at Redcar last November; revival plausible when he returns to those conditions. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
A bit underwhelming at Hamilton a fortnight ago but went there in good form, having won at Musselburgh (1m, good) previously; has won over C&D on soft ground and can be a contender if leaving latest run behind. |
11/2 |

6th 3 (6) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
This is his time of year and, after a close second over C&D (good) last month, he went one better at Musselburgh (1m, good) last Tuesday; fully at home on slow ground and firmly in calculations under a 4lb penalty. |

5th Nov 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Two wins at up to 6f on slow ground; has a squeak based on his Hamilton second in September but he's been badly out of sorts on his last three starts; steps up in trip but he's half-brother to two winners over it, so he could see it out; one of two in this for his trainer. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
His mark continues to fall and he has lots of good form on soft and heavy ground; won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March but this 9yo has struggled more recently and he needs to turn things around. |
25/1 |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won narrowly off his lower AW mark in March; returned from layoff with down-the-field AW run this month but combination of refitted cheekpieces and heavy rain could prompt a more dynanic performance. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Four-time Polytrack winner who ran well below market expectations in two previous starts on Tapeta; back on his last successful mark but didn't build on a decent comeback effort last time. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Doesn't have time on his side, being the oldest contender in this field; however, looks interesting back at Doncaster, being 1-1 here (win off 1lb lower last July); Harry Vigors takes off a useful 7lb. |

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. |

9st 9lb |
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. |
