12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
No turf win since May 2022; has posted some decent efforts at Newmarket (6f, both tracks) this season, none better than when runner-up in June; cheekpieces are yet to elicit improvement but this appears a better option than Southwell (tenth of 14) last time; easing mark. |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
He is on a competitive mark and has a course win on his record (7f); not beaten far at Newmarket this month when tried in cheekpieces for the first time; wide draw but he's not ruled out. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Twice placed on the two courses here before his effort petered out tamely at Haydock two weeks ago; returning here has to rate a positive, as might the addition of cheekpieces. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Eight of his 14 wins have come at Windsor and latest was a comfortable success over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; up 5lb but he still looks on a workable mark and has been in good form since April; big player. |
11/4 |

1st 3 (3) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

Seven of his 13 wins have come at Windsor and latest was over 5f (good) last month; finished well to snatch third at Bath (5.7f) and Sandown (5f) in his last two runs and he's strongly respected back up in trip. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Two minor 6f wins over the winter; not at his best on last two runs and now returns from 107 days off; drawn wide and others appeal more. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

6f wins at Newcastle and Lingfield this winter; not at his best at Newcastle (5f; tried in a visor) last month and the return of his usual cheekpieces isn't enough to tempt. |

Inconsistent but he ran one of his good races when a close third at Nottingham 19 days ago (6f, good to soft); fully effective over C&D; not ruled out for a stable that also run Nordic Glory. |

Turf (good to firm) and AW winner over 6f; best turf RPR came on good to soft but other form on slow ground makes that look an anomaly; plenty to prove based on last three starts. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Enjoying a fine season and his fifth win (including over C&D) of the campaign came at Wolverhampton (7f) two days ago when completing a quick hat-trick; leading claims turned out under a 5lb penalty. |
6/5 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Arrives seeking a hat-trick after 7f turf wins at Musselburgh (good) and Catterick (good to firm), the latter with ease and his best effort for almost two years; still well treated on this first AW start since March and a repeat of either of his last two efforts would make him tough to beat. |
6/5 |
|
1st 3 (5) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Hamilton (5f, good) in May and he was back on the scoresheet at Musselburgh (7f, good) last Tuesday, making virtually all under Jack Nicholls; yard continues in flying form and he's respected under a penalty. |

23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Poor strike-rate over the last four years and current mark reflects a decline in his form; best watched unless the market speaks positively. |

14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Not beaten far when fourth of five in recent 5f race won by Savannah Smiles (heavy ground) but is effectively on the same mark from 2lb out of the weights today and has very modest 1-33 strike-rate. |
16/1 |
|
5 (8) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Has the ability to win a race of this nature but can flatter to deceive and boasts a strike-rate of just one win from 32 starts; good effort at Wolverhampton six weeks ago but perhaps better on Tapeta nowadays. |
6/1 |

7 (11) |
22nd Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
A few near-misses over C&D off higher marks since coming over from Ireland and didn't run badly on turf last time, when done for toe over 5f back from a break; wouldn't be a shock were he to pop up despite the wide stall. |

Things didn't pan out for him when back over 6f here in April (first-time visor; cheekpieces now refitted) but he has a good C&D record, winning once and close up in all three handicaps; has a good run in him. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Just one win from his 20 starts but that came over C&D, and Tapeta brings out the best in him; not disgraced on last month's reappearance at Bath and he's down to a handy mark; of interest now back here. |
16/1 |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Looks interesting on his second at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in November but he took backward steps on final two runs last year; overall record is now 1-19 and he's yet to be placed in seven runs on turf; has work to do on return. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Only 1lb higher than when beating Colors Of Freedom over C&D last month; solid placed efforts on his last two starts (caught wide over C&D latest) and he should remain competitive. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 (7) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a similar race over C&D for Joanna Mason last month before again not looking to see out 6f next time; too many near-misses for comfort but holds similar claims to Captain Kinsella on Newcastle running four days ago. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Again didn't look to see out 6f last time and is best judged on his previous 0-50 Wolverhampton victory; too many near-misses for comfort prior to that but will rightly be popular. |
