1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer, as when winning for the third time this year in a 6f handicap at Chester in August; has shown promise on Polytrack and he is one to take seriously despite his 4lb penalty. |
3/1 |

1st 8 (1) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Inconsistent across his recent starts and well beaten at Ascot (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago, but prior to that he ran well when fourth of 17 at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); this 3yo has the advantage of stall 1 and is capable of a big run if back on song; unraced on slow ground. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Only fourth behind Prince Of India at Newmarket last month but he fared second best of the far-side group and it was another solid effort; conditions should suit but perhaps the handicapper has his measure now. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Made all at Ripon (6f, good) on last year's reappearance and ran well in defeat on next four starts (including over C&D) prior to two lesser runs to finish his campaign; returned to form with very close third of 16 in same Ripon race last month and this front-runner is an each-way contender. |

3rd 2 (14) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer; C&D winner on his seasonal return on this card 12 months ago; often ran well in good handicaps afterwards and although he ended 2025 with a couple of lesser efforts, he is likely to be seen to much better effect this time; should make a bold bid up the stands' rail. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Had a solid 2025, winning three times (5f/6f), but hasn't finished in the first eight this year; dropping in the weights but needs to turn a corner; perhaps a change of headgear will help. |
25/1 |
|
16th 15 (10) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Three handicap wins during last season's 3yo campaign (6f/5f, including on good/good to firm) and the return of cheekpieces may be a plus; however, he's been unplaced on both runs this year; has to raise his game. |
25/1 |
|
9th 8 (13) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
C&D winner who ended his 2025 campaign with a success and creditable effort over 5f at Newcastle (AW); was as good as ever in those two runs but he was well below form on his reappearance at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) 18 days ago; may have needed that run but he needs more progress to defy this mark. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Went close over C&D (good) last September on final run for Tom Clover and now 3lb lower; David O'Meara should find the key to him at some point but he's been below his best on his first three runs for the yard. |
5/1 |
|
5th 2 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Not at his best in two runs for David O'Meara but on good to soft ground; possible this return to a faster surface will help and he's undoubtedly well handicapped if it does; waters muddied slightly by the stable also having Veblen Good in the race. |
4/1 |

13th 1 (15) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Ended 2025 with a good second at Newmarket (6f, good), after which he changed hands for 50,000gns; only eighth (of 19) on his stable debut at Doncaster 18 days ago but he wasn't well drawn as things panned out and he ran as though the run would bring him on; remains a sprinter of interest. |

26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Won a modest 8.6f seller at Wolverhampton last September; not so good since and he'll need to be at his best to take this; is at least unexposed at the trip. |

5th 6 (2) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Ended his 2025 campaign in sellers, winning once and finishing third twice; well treated on best form but isn't sure to reproduce it and record of 0-8 in handicaps adds doubt. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Won for the first time since going handicapping at Epsom in July (7f, good) and was subsequently placed at Goodwood (7f, good to soft) and back at Epsom (7f, good); cheekpieces now tried and on a career high mark (3lb higher than last time); contender. |

2nd 9 (5) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Made it 3-6 when landing a C&D handicap (good) last month and he found more progress when front-running third in big field at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to soft); only 1lb higher on this drop back in grade and he's an interesting contender. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Smart 2yo, including third place in the Coventry Stakes; slow start to 2025 but he has run creditably in deep 3yo handicaps on his last two starts; something bigger could be brewing. |
12/1 |

9th 8 (8) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Record of 0-7 since debut win; had Group form last year but isn't particularly solid on 2025 handicap results, for all that the latest seemed encouraging; James Doyle prefers the other Wathnan Racing runner. |
20/1 |
|
8 (6) |
10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Third in last season's Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot and followed that with fourth in the Superlative Stakes at this meeting; well beaten in three handicap runs this year, the latest behind Hucklesbrook last month, and a further 4lb drop in the weights isn't enough to tempt. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Wide-margin winner of a valuable sales race at the Curragh as a 2yo; hard to find the right race in a handful of starts since but he ran two fair races on the AW at the start of the year and this stiff 6f should be more up his street; can figure. |

11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

No match for Completely Random at Lingfield last month but the winner has done his bit for that form and it was a solid effort; one to consider. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
17th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Useful 2yo; not at his best in two runs this winter but he has dropped 4lb and last time isn't the run to judge him on (too keen in a race not run to suit); not solid but too soon to write him off. |
