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. |

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. |

11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
The most exposed runner in the line-up but he's been progressive in handicaps and completed a double with his strong finish at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last month; up another 5lb but he did well to overcome trouble last time and is now 2-3 on turf; Ryan Moore booked; major chance. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Six races on AW and two on good ground; progressive in 1m2f handicaps, leading 1f out for a tidy win in nine-runner race at Chester last Saturday; up 5lb but experienced and respected. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins have been at Chelmsford AW (1m2f) last spring; progression has stalled this year but handicap mark has reflected that and he finished third of eight at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) two weeks ago; his turn is near but not sure drop back to 1m will be in his favour. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 9 (9) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Went back-to-back over 1m2f on Chelmsford's AW around this time last year; winless since and latest eighth of ten at Ripon (1m2f, good to soft) didn't suggest he's about to capitalise on a declining mark; a handicapping case can be made, though. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Went 0-14 after his winning debut at two but belatedly doubled his tally when comfortably accounting for his five rivals after a break at Southwell (1m); this is tougher, but he was runner-up in last year's Silver Bowl at Haydock which was a Class 2 handicap on turf; only 3lb higher than that day. |

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. |
14/1 |

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. |

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. |
6/5 |

4th 1 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Finally got off the mark (headgear change) in four-runner Yarmouth handicap (11.5f) 11 days ago; up 4lb but could have more to offer for his current yard. |

1st 2 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
0-8 for Charlie Fellowes; four runs for current yard, the pick when a close fifth over 1m5f at Lingfield (AW) three runs back; pretty poor since and he's now had lots of chances over various distances. |
