9st 6lb |
Rarely seen on a downhill track but ran a corking race in Group 3 over C&D as 2yo; often well below best in 2026 but intermittent flashes of form have lightened the gloom, including when a close fourth at Pontefract (5f, good to firm; first-time visor, retained) latest; on the risky side overall. |

9st 5lb |
His mark continues to fall and there were promising signs at Newcastle (5f, AW) in June; however, two lesser runs have followed and he has to turn things around in a first-time visor (has worn cheekpieces/blinkers this term). |

Still to add to his debut success as a 2yo but he has taken well to AW this winter, in the frame in three Class 2 handicaps at Newcastle; looks the clear pick of the Richard Fahey contingent. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner (September 2022); reliable in 2026, inching ever closer; beaten a nose by the in-form Mr Cool at Redcar (6f, good; 12-1) ten days ago; small 2lb rise, coupled with less favourable low draw, enough to further frustrate? |
3/1 |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |

Reliable sort who comes here on the back of a good second of nine in 5f Pontefract handicap 17 days ago; can make his presence felt off the same mark. |

Posted two good thirds at the start of last month (5f/5.6f, good to firm) before midfield finish in big-field Class 4 at York (6f, good to firm); the drop back in trip/grade can help and he could be in the mix. |

Had a fine year in 2023, his first with this stable, when an Ayr Gold Cup win was the highlight; has only run well in one of his four starts this year and hopes rest on a wind operation having a positive effect; second and first in two runs at Newcastle. |

Good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk ten days ago when he wasn't on his best behaviour in the stalls; has the ability to feature off this mark but is not without risk. |

He had dropped a long way in the weights before ending a losing run at Newcastle (5f) in March; added a C&D win in April and he has run well in defeat in both runs since; creeping back up the weights and had a 53-day break but he has the ability to go well. |

Not as good or consistent as he was and does a lot of his racing now over 6f, as when behind Monks Dream (Dark Kestrel fifth) here recently; again only holds each-way claims. |

Dropped to a dangerous mark and his last two efforts have been more encouraging; 7lb better off with Brazilian Rose on last month's C&D run but wouldn't be open to the same progress as that rival. |

Wins both came first time out but he ran poorly for his new yard on comeback five weeks ago, having struggled during a limited campaign last year; often pulls hard and has plenty to prove now. |

31st May 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Capable of smart handicap form in 2022 and 2023 (RPR 102); ended 2023 tamely though and no sign of a revival in three runs last year; not a solid option but it's possible a change of stable could have freshened him up and he's thrown in if that's the case. |
