20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Often slowly away but his refusal to race at Redcar last month was a new low; blinkers tried there are quickly dispensed with; hard to recommend after latest display. |
16/1 |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Ran his best race of the year when third of eight at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago, his first run after a gelding operation; regular slow starts aren't ideal and the switch to blinkers isn't enough to earn him the vote. |
7/1 |

3rd 2 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won a Ripon novice (5f, good) last June and ran well on his handicap debut at Ayr (6f, soft) in September; hasn't featured in two starts this year and has been gelded since last seen in May. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Big chance on this year's best efforts but his form dipped at York in June and last week's Great St Wilfrid seventh wasn't great either; unraced on slower than good; not sure what to expect. |
9/1 |
|
7th 12 (12) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Sprang a 40-1 surprise on his stable debut at York (5f, good) in May and he showed better form in defeat on his next two starts (both at York; 5f and 6f on good ground); messed about at the start when disappointing at York seven weeks ago; still of major interest from a handicapping perspective judged on his run on June 13 and he's unexposed at 6f; contender. |
7/1 |
|
13th 5 (11) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has maintained his consistency by posting form figures of 143, all in sprints at York, since joining current stable; beat Stargazed by half a length on the first occasion and ran well, despite a tricky draw the way things panned out, in notable handicap most recently; very solid claims. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won a 7f novice as a 2yo and he ran over 1m on his reappearance, but his two runs since have been over this distance; went off favourite but met trouble on both occasions, and he has since been gelded; hard to pin down but he's relatively lightly raced and probably has more to offer. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 7f novice as a 2yo and he was tried over 1m on his seasonal/handicap debut in April; dropped to 5f at Sandown nine days ago (tongue tied first time; well backed) and travelled well but met some trouble at a crucial stage; that race set up for the closers and this is a sharper test but he could well have more to offer as a sprinter; cheekpieces now added. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 4 (2) |
28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a 7f Newmarket maiden (good) in October but finished down the field having led in French heavy-ground Listed race next time; weakened when attempting 1m on his comeback in April but this first start at 5f since his 2yo debut is still something of a surprise; fascinating to see what he makes of it in an additional tongue-tie with Oisin Murphy steering. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't see the trip out when fourth at Newcastle (7f, AW) in July but has been runner-up at Thirsk (6f, good) and Newcastle (6f, AW) in two starts being gelded; blinkers now go on and he sets the standard. |
11/8 |
|
2nd 4 (2) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Good effort when second over C&D (second start) in June; made a big move before not staying 7f here next time and was gelded before finishing a solid second of 16 at Thirsk (6f, good) last month; leading contender. |
6/5 |
|
2nd 8 (12) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown promise all three starts, losing two places near the finish when fourth of ten at Newcastle (7f, AW; subsequently gelded) on latest; should be suited by today's drop back to 6f; remains open to improvement and commands plenty of respect. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can pull hard; three places but no wins from 11 starts; capable of going well, as he showed when second in two races in the spring (one on the AW) but not particularly consistent. |
20/1 |
|
9th 2 (2) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
In the frame in six of his ten starts and 1lb higher than when going close over this trip at Southwell (AW) and Beverley (good to soft) in the spring; no headgear for the first time since his third start as a 2yo; each-way claims again. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Nine-race maiden whose second-place finishes over 5f in April/May suggest there may be a contest of this nature in him; form dipped when returned to 6f last time. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Six-race maiden; refused to settle and built up a clear lead at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) three weeks ago, but was caught inside the final furlong and finished third of eight; there was plenty of encouragement to be taken from that effort and he should be suited by the drop back in trip. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 8 (1) |
14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
All races at 5f and he hasn't achieved much in either handicap, for previous yard and this one; some encouragement in pedigree for a step up in trip but probably best watched even so. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (8) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Down the field in three novice/maiden events and it was a similar tale in added tongue-tie on handicap debut at Thirsk (5f; 28-1) last September; has left the Quinns since; hard to be interested in him back from an absence unless the market speaks favourably; has been gelded. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden but he's found only one too good in three of his four starts since joining this stable, including at Ayr (6f, good to firm; lost a shoe) 11 days ago; solid chance. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 4 (2) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-Richard Fahey; runner-up on last two starts, both over 5f here (soft/good to firm), last time finishing clear of the rest when beaten a neck by one completing a four-timer; now tries 6f again; interesting. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Low-mileage sort who posted easily his best effort for new yard with second in 5f Ayr handicap last month; needs considering off an unchanged mark. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Showed the right attitude when winning at Southwell (7f, AW) off a 2lb lower mark early last month but then made it six poor efforts from six starts on turf at Beverley a fortnight later; that leaves him with it to prove. |
12/1 |
|
6 (2) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Had stable companion Harswell River (2lb better off) just behind in fourth when winning a Southwell nursery on AW debut last time (well-beaten fifth in a C&D nursery previous start); up 2lb; a possible. |
4/1 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
No improvement for the switch to minor nurseries on his last two starts; hopes appear to rest on the new surface having a positive effect. |
20/1 |
