Had shown ability prior to making it eighth-time lucky at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) this month; not so good back there last Friday, but it's interesting that he is back so soon and the return to this trip isn't a problem; respected. |

Improved form (finished third) over C&D last month when making handicap debut and fitted with cheekpieces (now wears blinkers); could well build on that effort; highly respected off same mark. |

C&D winner last year; won again at Southwell in February (6f) but rather out of sorts since; back on his last winning mark. |

7th 5 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Game effort to win over C&D in February off 1lb lower; only run since came at Thirsk 12 days ago when easy to back and dropping right away in the race won by Eldeyaar; racecourse evidence suggests he will be much happier now back on AW. |
7/1 |

Had the headgear left off when back to winning ways in 6f Southwell handicap 53 days ago; he's yet to show much in a handful of turf runs though, so needs to back it up. |

Ended 2024 with 6f Newcastle nursery success in December but well below par in 6f handicaps at Redcar and Wetherby this summer; he's not easy to make a case for. |

Surprise winner of a heavy-ground 0-55 handicap over C&D last autumn; didn't offer a lot on her comeback early in the month and is hard to recommend after that. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |

Unplaced in all eight starts (6f-1m) and his promising fifth at Newcastle (6f; November) hasn't been built on in three runs since; enough to prove back at a mile. |

20th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Mixed in handicaps, winning one off this mark here (1m2f, good) in March; back in some better form on his first two starts in cheekpieces but not on latest, albeit trying 1m4f; unraced on softer than good; not dismissed totally back down in trip. |
12/1 |

5th 8 (9) |
23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Mixed in handicaps but he won one over 1m2f at Redcar in March and back in better form since cheekpieces have been fitted; however, the way he's been finishing recently suggests a stamina query for 1m4f. |
