7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from 23 starts but he made a bold bid and was only narrowly denied in a Hamilton handicap (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; has leading claims if he can back that up. |
11/4 |

2nd 3 (7) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not in the same form as he was in May and June last year but he's on a lowly mark now and, after being pushed along from some way out, he did stick well to the task when fourth over C&D (good to firm) recently; form case to be made down in grade. |
7/2 |

4th 7 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Yet to be placed after six starts this season (5f-7f) but won off a much higher mark last spring, at Ripon (6f, good to soft), and may yet turn things around; worth a glance in the betting. |

No problem with his consistency, especially on Tapeta, but is just 1-27 and yet to tackle beyond 7f; could go well again, but others are preferred for the win. |
4/1 |

3rd 8 (14) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Only 1-26 but that win was three runs back over 7f at Wolverhampton and it had been coming; has continued to run well and 6f is fine, as is this track. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 (4) |
30th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Off the mark at the 24th attempt when keeping on to beat Midnight's Dream over C&D two starts ago; didn't see things out under a penalty at Chepstow six days ago but he's now 3lb lower; solid. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Front-running wins at Thirsk and over this C&D in July (both on good to firm), the most recent coming off a 3lb lower mark than today's; below his best here on his last two starts but is worth forgiving for the latest effort, having come across to the near side rail; may be able to bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
7th 7 (3) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Front-running wins at Thirsk and over C&D last month; only fourth behind Miss Rainbow here 13 days ago but he used up a lot of energy getting to the front from the widest stall; better drawn today and he should have a big run in him. |
9/1 |
|
4th 3 (8) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Made all at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) last month and bounced back from a disappointing effort when winning over this C&D two weeks ago (again made all); can't be dismissed off this 3lb higher mark at a track which suits. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two AW wins in early 2025, over 7f at Chelmsford and 6f at Wolverhampton, both under Rossa Ryan; her form took a turn for the worse, including for him, in the second half of the year but she didn't do badly in a slowly run C&D race won by Ashford Hill last time and Ryan returns to the saddle. |
6/1 |

5th 8 (3) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Dual AW winner who has slipped to an attractive mark; well capable of being involved but isn't particularly solid on her form since returned to this sphere. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (5) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Triple AW winner (6f/7f), who scored on turf at Salisbury last May; now 5lb lower than for that last success but she's not been at her best since and needs to raise her game back up in trip. |

11-race maiden; short of his best on his last two starts and others appeal more for win purposes. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
14-race maiden but he returned to form with a creditable third at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) 17 days ago; that was more like it with blinkers added and has claims if he can back that up. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 7 (1) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
13-race maiden; has attracted support on a few occasions, including at Doncaster on her seasonal return, and could yet have a bigger run in him; blinkers replace the hood or cheekpieces worn on his last three starts. |
12/1 |

9th 11 (2) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-12 and well beaten at Newcastle when last seen in November; he was sent off favourite on that occasion and returns from a break off a 2lb lower mark; no doubt the ability is there to win races if the addition of a hood has a calming effect (often races too freely). |

In the frame in three of his seven starts for Karl Burke, but out of the frame in seven starts for this yard (blinkers made no difference last time); passed over. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Remains winless and he's yet to fire for his current yard, only 12th in 6f Doncaster handicap six days ago; blinkers go on here. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

Ex-Karl Burke; exposed 12-race maiden who is on a fair mark but needs to improve on his recent form; poor run last time with cheekpieces which are left off here. |

29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Out the back in three maiden/novice runs over further but the last two runs haven't been devoid of promise; faces a more realistic challenge now handicapping, even from 3lb wrong; stable on a seven-month losing run but he needs a market check. |
