21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Last of four in a 1m2f Listed race at Newmarket (good) in May on his only start in a hood; won by a nose either side of that in a maiden and novice, latterly when going clear before holding on from Thursday's King George V Handicap seventh Boatswain; still looks raw and a work in progress, so brings potential to this handicap debut. |

26th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Irish Derby entry; did very well to hold off a smart one (now has a mark of 97) on Kempton AW debut over 1m; respectable reappearance, despite finishing last of four, in a 1m2f Newmarket Listed race (good; first-time hood, now discarded) and should improve for the run with sights lowered. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
0-9 on turf; that's despite some good form last year but his best two runs this season were on AW, latterly when winning at Southwell in July on his step up to 2m; that came by 13l in a five-runner race but he failed to fire in anything like that manner when back on turf at York (2m, good). |
9/1 |

8th 10 (11) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
0-8 on turf; that's despite some good form last year but his best two runs this season were on AW, latterly when winning at Southwell early last month on his step up to 2m; that came by 13l in a five-runner race; has a 6lb higher mark in this very different contest but he's unexposed at the trip. |

1st 4 (1) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Has some good form on turf but latest defeat took his record in that sphere to 0-8; two attempts on AW comprise a win at Lingfield (1m2f) on debut and keeping-on third at Kempton (1m4f) in May; unexposed on artificial surfaces and looks interesting assuming he stays the new trip. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Low-mileage 3yo; record of 211 since dropped to 1m, the wins at Newmarket (good to firm) and Kempton (AW); upped in class but looks open to further progress at this sort of trip. |

1st 4 (6) |
15th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Low-mileage 3yo; couple of sound performances on turf since dropped to 1m, making all for narrow win at Newmarket latest; may have more to offer at this trip; respected. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Found little on handicap debut over 1m2f at Newbury but he shaped better when dropped to 1m at Sandown (good) recently, albeit no match for a Haggas improver; not obviously ahead of this mark but he has time on his side. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Scored at Chelmsford (1m5f) for Roger Varian in January; not disgraced for his new yard with third of six in 1m6f Yarmouth handicap nine days ago, so he's one to consider. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
The winner of one of his 11 starts for Roger Varian, namely a 13.3f handicap at Chelmsford in January; sold for 8,500gns last month; still to prove as good on turf as AW but that is perhaps circumstance, rather than a marked preference for artificial surfaces. |
7/1 |

8th 8 (10) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Looked on the up when gaining a breakthrough victory at Chelmsford (1m5f) in January; hasn't matched that form both runs since but he failed to last home when fifth in 2m Lingfield handicap last time; not out of things in a change of headgear over this shorter trip. |

11st 0lb |
Showed only minor promise during three-race Flat career and was pulled up (bled from the nose) on hurdling debut at Fontwell in September; tongue-tie added here; not the most obvious answer. |

15,000euros yearling, £40,000 (breeze-up) 2yo; Romanised half-brother to eight winners, notably Miranda (1m2f-1m4f Flat, 98; useful 2m-3m hurdle); wears hood on debut; market informative. |
