19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-12; beaten only 2l when fifth of 11 here over 7f in a classified event in February but he's not backed that up in two starts since; well held in five starts on turf and others are preferred. |
25/1 |

7th 6 (10) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-race maiden but he was beaten only 2l at Lingfield (1m, AW) in January and again there over 7f in February (classified events); his latest effort is worth forgiving (wide trip) but he has struggled in four starts on turf. |
16/1 |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 5yo with a patchy record, although he was beaten only 2l when fifth in a similar race at Lingfield under Jack Dace last time; each-way shout with a repeat of that form. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Little to shout about in nine starts and the drop to this level has made no difference in his last two outings; best watched. |

10th 6 (9) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Poor maiden who was tried in a hood when beating only one in 9.5f classified event here in March; it's easy to look elsewhere. |
12/1 |
|
6th 6 (2) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Far from solid on form and mark of 50 shouldn't necessarily be taken at face value dropped to this level; a lot may depend on the effects of first-time hood. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Both wins have been over 6f, the most recent at Salisbury (good) in October off a 1lb lower mark than today's, but he went over today's trip at Goodwood (soft) last month; likely has quicker ground conditions today but has good claims. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
His two wins have come over 6f but he is fully effective over this extra furlong; back to his last winning mark and he will be a danger to all if the ground is suitable (well beaten in one run on slower than good). |
7/1 |
|
3rd 5 (6) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Gelded and off six months before a never-dangerous fourth of five in 6f Lingfield handicap 11 days ago; this dual 6f winner in 2025 can take a step forward now. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Took a big step forward on just his second go in handicaps when runner-up at Salisbury (1m) 16 days ago, hampered last 1f and awarded race; up 2lb but he remains unexposed at this trip; player. |
7/2 |
|
1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinting pedigree but he's raced only at about 7f, keeping on at just the one pace when sixth of 12 on handicap debut at Doncaster (good to soft; first start since gelded) in July; might prefer quicker ground but he moves up to 1m with something to find. |
9/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts (7f/7.3f) and improvement is needed on handicap debut; however, he's been gelded since his last run last month which could help him tap into the considerable potential in his pedigree. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Came good in first-time blinkers at Bath (1m, firm) in April, after a break, but managed only third in a small field there (1m2f) in May and was soundly beaten on his latest outing; needs to kick on again. |
16/1 |
|
7th 5 (1) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Blinkers have helped him this spring, seeing off five rivals at Bath (1m, firm) last month and then finishing close up in third back at Bath (1m2f, firm) 19 days ago; returning to a mile can help and Mason Paetel's claim is a useful one. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Travelled well in the new blinkers over 1m here recently (firm) and got the job done by just over a length; has stamina to prove over this longer trip and no guarantees the headgear will work a second time. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Building up a solid record for this yard, including one win on AW (this February) and two at Windsor (May and June); the latest win was in tidy style over almost this far 11 days ago and, although not well-in under his penalty, he has major claims again. |
2/1 |

1st 6 (5) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Building up a solid record for current stable and was beaten only narrowly by Mrembo over C&D (good to firm) last time when bidding for a Windsor double; major contender. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Novice winner who was close up in a C&D handicap last August off 1lb higher; major claims if able to repeat that form, which hasn't been the case in three subsequent races. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Got off the mark in 7f Salisbury novice in August but failed to beat a rival at Kempton on his final run in 2025 and went freely when beating one on his return in 1m Newmarket handicap last month; needs to become more tractable. |
10/1 |
|
12th 16 (8) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Off the mark at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last summer and ran well on handicap debut at Newbury (7f, good) next time; disappointing when upped to 1m at Kempton but he's certainly bred to stay; still lightly raced. |

24th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
First run for this yard and in a handicap when going down narrowly at Redcar (7f, good to soft), having stuck to his task; reportedly failed to handle the track when miserably failing favourite backers at Epsom; can be given another chance and a visor is added; all runs at 7f but should stay okay. |

31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

First run for this yard and in a handicap when going down narrowly at Redcar (7f, good to soft), having stuck to his task; same mark here so 2lb well in. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won Salisbury novice (7f, good to firm) and Epsom handicap (extended 1m, good to soft) last year; only seventh of 14 on 1m Kempton reappearance but the fact she went off 15-8 favourite suggests better was anticipated. |
10/1 |

7th 5 (2) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Ended 2025 with a modest effort at Newmarket but had been making steady progress beforehand; with just seven runs to her name it is not unreasonable to expect further progress as a 4yo; one to consider. |
9/2 |
|
9th 9 (3) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Won Salisbury novice (7f, good to firm) and Epsom handicap (8.5f, good to soft) this summer; creditable efforts in defeat at York and Wolverhampton since and this low-mileage 3yo has to enter the reckoning. |
4/1 |
