25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Close third in Listed company at Wolverhampton last month on his first attempt at 7f and he wasn't beaten for a lack of stamina; not at his best in a hot sprint handicap at Newcastle on Good Friday; no surprise to see him bounce back with a big run. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Did well in early 2025 on AW, winning a C&D handicap in good style and following up in Listed company at Lingfield; finished third in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 5lb higher; running himself back into form this winter, most recently a close third over 7f four weeks ago, and he looks primed to give Clifford Lee a winning return to the saddle. |

Strong AW form in the first half of 2025; awkward leaving the stalls in his two runs this winter and the form has been well short of his best; steps up to 7f for the first time. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Teak-tough effort to take this race on soft ground 12 months ago; in good form in Dubai in February and his Ascot fourth (5f, good to firm) in July was a career-best RPR; two runs at Glorious Goodwood were respectable and he is 3lb lower than when midfield in the Stewards' Cup; new blinkers replace usual visor; sure to be primed for a bold bid. |

Finished fourth behind stablemate Two Tribes in this race 12 months ago when 8lb lower and enjoyed his finest hour when making most to win the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) last September; successful in Dubai early in the year and although his results have been mixed since returning to Britain, he retains plenty of ability; down the field over 5f here on Tuesday when a change of tactics failed to bear fruit; better can be expected today. |

Made all in last season's Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) and competes off the same mark here after taking Toby Moore's claim into account; won over 5f at Meydan during the winter and gave it a good shot last time at Ascot (5f); finished fourth in last year's Stewards' Cup so handles this track; respected. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

He enjoyed his finest hour over this C&D when winning the 2023 Wokingham off a 20lb higher mark; he hasn't won since and his second over C&D in May on his seasonal/stable debut hasn't been a springboard to better things; others look safer. |

Having dropped down the weights he was a close second at Ascot (6f, good) in May on his stable/seasonal debut, and perhaps the soft ground didn't suit at Epsom last time; not written off but this 8yo has been regressive and remains without a win since June 2023. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Far from straightforward and his best form has come on AW; two good runs and three poor runs since joining Ruth Carr, his latest Newcastle fourth (blinkered first time) falling into the former category; not the most solid option but he is better than this level on his day and it is always worth a second look when Billy Loughnane is booked for the stable (four wins and four seconds from 22 rides). |

13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Blew hot and cold for Jack Channon and signs that it may be the same for new connections, shaping well at Wolverhampton in February but turning in lesser efforts twice since; well handicapped if this is one of his good days and the return of cheekpieces (first time for Ruth Carr) looks a plus. |

All five of his wins have been on the AW, with three of them here over 7f; ran a more encouraging race following some lesser efforts on turf when fourth of 11 in a Newcastle Group 3 three months ago but has to give weight all round in this field and is bottom on ratings. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Took a step forward on the AW earlier in the year, at 7f and 6f, but he didn't make his turf debut until never involved in a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good) in May; comes from a line of superb turf sprinters but this is a difficult first handicap on grass, to put it mildly. |
