19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
8st 9lb |
Musselburgh maiden winner (1m4f, good to soft) who was third in a hot running of the Listed Cheshire Oaks in May (11.3f, good); well beaten in Group 2 Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) but failed to settle and, in view of the penultimate form, is not ruled out now back down in grade. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Second to Lady Vivian in Southwell maiden (1m4f, AW) in March on third start then easily won Musselburgh maiden (12.4f, good to soft); improved again when third in Listed Cheshire Oaks (11.3f, good); mixed messages from that form with Minnie Hauk following up in the Oaks but the runner-up being unplaced in French Group 3; this stiffer stamina test can suit; not ruled out. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
11-race maiden; left Andrew Balding after running poorly in a seller in September and showed no significant promise in three subsequent hurdle races for new stable. |
50/1 |

8th 12 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Maiden; eventually regressed on the Flat for previous yard and his two hurdles efforts amount to little. |
100/1 |

7th 11 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Pretty useful maiden on Flat at his best (1m6f) for Andrew Balding, but lost his form in that sphere and hurdle/yard debut at Kempton (2m, good) in January did not look promising. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
A pretty useful maiden after six races, good fourth of 14 to Munsif from off the pace in handicap at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) on latest; this is a better race and he needs to find extra. |
10/1 |
|
4th 14 (13) |
11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Two minor honours on softer than good to start career; second of six on handicap debut at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last month is his best form and he faded into sixth of 13 at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) ten days later; lightly raced, with something to prove. |
12/1 |
|
12 (2) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Best run yet when 1l second of six to improved Godolphin winner on handicap debut at Kempton (1m4f, Polytrack; 9-4) ten days ago; he should be suited by the likely strong pace in this big field and his trainer won this with a 3yo in 2022; firmly in calculations off the same mark. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
4yo who has shown ability on the Flat and it's still very early days over hurdles; however, he was soundly beaten on his handicap hurdle debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in February and needs to raise his game. |
16/1 |
|
6th 5 |
15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Juvenile hurdler who may show improvement off his opening hurdles mark; 0-9 overall but looks favourably treated with his Flat rating in mind and Gregor Walkingshaw takes off a bonus 10lb. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-6 on the Flat and failed to progress; ran okay when sixth of ten at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) on New Year's Day on his second hurdle start but others have achieved considerably more. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 5f 26y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Six-race maiden who is yet to threaten and was well beaten over C&D (good to soft) in July, but she made some late headway when fourth of six in a first-time visor (retained) at Sandown (1m2f, soft) three weeks ago and on that evidence she's worth another go at this trip; not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
5 (4) |
17th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 209y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
In good hands and has only raced five times, but she's failed to raise her modest profile in handicaps (1m5f/1m2f) and a visor replaces the blinkers tried last time. |
14/1 |
|
11 (6) |
21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Down the field in her three qualifying runs and was a remote ninth on handicap debut at Ayr (1m5f, good to soft) two weeks ago; in good hands and still unexposed but she needs a transformation back in trip; blinkers added. |
