25th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Tongue tied all starts; beat a good one on debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) last December and regained winning thread in quite valuable handicap at that track (1m2f) in May; gelded after weakening in 1m4f Royal Ascot handicap in June and weakened again on comeback at York (first-time cheekpieces) 18 days ago; blinkers tried this time and he's not one to give up on just yet. |

7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Beat subsequent Group winner Merchant on his debut and kicked off handicap career with a third and a first over 1m2f; 6lb higher than for the last of those wins but he was only 13-2 at Royal Ascot (1m4f) and has been gelded since that 10l defeat; could still be open to further progress and cheekpieces join his regular tongue-tie. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Made the frame a few times during his spell in UAE and perhaps needed the run when returned to British soil last time; competitively handicapped on best form. |

5th 5 (3) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
AW and dual turf winner over about 1m2f last April-June; some minor honours in his November-March campaign in the UAE, mostly on dirt, without reproducing best efforts; tongue tied first time for today's return from four months off and he needs to be back at his peak; has a bit to prove on firmer than good (after one attempt) but his yard is among the winners. |
7/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Progressive to win three 1m2f handicaps (Lingfield AW, Chester and Epsom) this season before never dangerous at Newmarket three weeks ago on his first race on good to firm; best effort on good to soft, soft in places, the time before, with a strong finish to pip Grecian Legacy, and he may well bounce back to go well again. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
First turf win when a neck victor over C&D earlier this month (good) and might have followed up off this 3lb higher mark had he not been carried left late on at Windsor; 2lb higher in future; player. |
11/4 |

2nd 2 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Prevailed by a neck at Sandown (1m, good) last time, registering a first success on turf; back up 3lb but remains well treated on the pick of his AW form; gained his other wins back-to-back. |
9/2 |

1st 5 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has broadly respectable form since returned to turf, notably a good effort behind Dovey Moon; however, still may be more interesting when back on Chelmsford AW; 2-2 there compared to 0-18 elsewhere. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Both his wins have come on the AW but he wasn't disgraced when eighth of 17 on turf at York (7f, good; 22-1) four weeks ago; stepping back up to 1m should be a help; each-way possibilities. |
12/1 |
|
8th 12 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Both his wins have come on AW but he handles turf, albeit best grass runs have come on good going; two disappointing efforts since his Southwell win in April and others are more convincing. |
33/1 |

12th 10 (12) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has gained both wins on AW, including on reappearance; has bits of fairly useful form on turf but produced one of his lesser efforts last time, taking record in this sphere to 0-9; others preferred. |

30th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Successful on 2yo debut; has failed to repeat that form since, well held over C&D most recently; chance depends on how well he responds to new headgear. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won on 2yo debut at Haydock (1m, soft) last September; the return to slow ground may be a positive but he's gone backwards from that initial promise and was soundly beaten at Haydock (1m, good) only 12 days ago. |
9/1 |

11 (11) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Overcame greenness to win on C&D debut (soft) last September; has failed to back up that form in four subsequent outings (mainly AW) and needs a first-time visor and return to Haydock to spark a revival back from eight weeks off. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
1-14 on the Flat, the win coming over about 1m3f at Yarmouth (good; fair form) in April; beaten 14l into second in a six-runner maiden hurdle at Huntingdon a month ago; likely to need more here. |
13/2 |

2nd 3 |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Odds-on winner over nearly 1m4f at Yarmouth (good) last month and ran okay on faster ground at Leicester (both runs in a visor); he's been found a very winnable race for his hurdle debut. |
