23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
3-4 on Tapeta and bids for a hat-trick after wins at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Southwell (1m); up another 7lb and is unraced on Polytrack, but still a major player. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
The blinkers experiment didn't work in July but he's won both AW outings since his debut, over C&D (maiden) and with authority at Wolverhampton (about 1m; second has won since) last month; hung left there, possibly away from the whip, but a 4lb rise shouldn't be beyond him; respected. |

20th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Made the frame in his first four starts on the AW but twice held on turf, doing too much early when fitted with a visor at Newbury (1m, good to firm) last time; that headgear is on again today so he does have a bit to prove. |
6/1 |

8th 13 (12) |
17th May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
No wins in five but he was close up behind Regalian at Southwell in March and looked threatening to a point when 7-1 for his handicap debut over 1m2f at Newmarket; didn't appear to get home and he's now back in trip with a visor added; each-way claims. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Both wins have been on AW at Lingfield (1m2f) and latest was off 1lb lower in April; mixed results in last four runs, but he was good third at Wolverhampton (1m4f) two weeks ago and has claims if he can back that up. |
9/2 |

3rd 6 (9) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins have been on AW at Lingfield over 1m2f; appeared to get the trip when fourth of seven over C&D last month but looks high in the weights. |
14/1 |

4th 1 (5) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Both wins have came on AW over 1m2f at Lingfield this year, latest in April; inconsistent last four starts, respectable fourth here (9.4f) latest; second once in March over 1m3f and this is his first crack at 1m4f. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Six-race maiden on the Flat for Hugo Palmer; has shown promise when placed in both hurdles starts, latest when third of nine finishers at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month; looks sure to make his presence felt. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 10 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-6 on the Flat but displayed ability and there was also promise in last month's hurdle/stable debut at Taunton (2m, good), where he was runner-up to a useful (but sadly ill-fated) prospect; in good hands to progress and he could have a part to play. |
3/1 |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Safely held when fifth in first two handicaps, both times over 1m4f on turf; however, last month's Newmarket run came after a break and he might fare better now back on Polytrack and with cheekpieces refitted. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Built on his handicap debut with a 7l success at Epsom (1m4f, good) in July 2025; well held in just two outings since, although the fact he went off at 2-1 for his Thirsk reappearance four weeks ago suggests a lot better was anticipated by his leading stable; it'll be interesting to see if his supporters' are prepared to give him a second chance. |

Built on his handicap debut with a 7l success at Epsom (1m4f, good) last July; raised 11lb for that success and was well held having raced keenly at Goodwood (1m4f) next time; has been off for 373 days and has the hood applied for his return; watch the market. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Seems to go on most ground and made it 21st-time lucky with a short-head success from The Bureau Club over C&D this month; 4lb out of the weights so 7lb higher, which may be enough to anchor him. |
12/1 |

1st 7 (6) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Good 2yo form; remains a maiden after 20 starts but he's fallen a long way in the weights and, at odds of 4-1, was a clear second over C&D 55 days ago; considered. |
9/2 |

2nd 3 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Useful as 2yo but hard to place since and remains a maiden; found his level again of late and would be suited by ground softer than good, having been inclined to lug left round Bath the last twice; shortlisted. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has run well on all three handicap starts, all over 1m2f and getting off the mark in game fashion at Leicester last time (good to firm); creditable second over this C&D on previous start (good to firm); contender. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Runner-up in both starts since upped to 1m2f in handicaps, including when beaten a neck by Frostmagic at Doncaster (good); better off with that rival at these weights but she did flash her tail at Haydock (good to firm) last time; contender. |
5/1 |

2nd 7 (8) |
23rd May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Outpaced in slowly run race before keeping on for a close second on handicap debut at Doncaster (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; can build on that performance when getting a better gallop and she's a major player. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Probably hasn't enjoyed heavy/good to soft ground on turf the last twice but his record on Polytrack (4212) is a bit better than on Tapeta (484) and he remains 4lb higher than for his Kempton win (6f) in August. |
5/1 |
|
3 (5) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Kempton winner (6f; from 5lb lower) in August; moderately progressive form came to an abrupt end on heavy ground at Salisbury (6f; favourite) latest, and it is a legitimate concern that his three best efforts have been on AW; cheekpieces added to regular tongue-tie. |
4/1 |
|
5th 3 (9) |
12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Most runs and best form have been on the AW, notably his recent first and second finishes in 6f handicaps; on a competitive mark and could yet show his worth on turf. |

22nd Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
4yo who was well beaten at 25-1 on debut at Sandown (1m2f, good to soft) last April and absent since; plenty to prove but this 100,000euros yearling has an attractive pedigree and could take a big step forward at some stage. |
