25th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Soundly beaten in sales race at Naas (6f, good to yielding) last time but showed promise on his first three starts (5f/6f good), including a debut win at Beverley and close third in a Thirsk novice; not ruled out. |
9/1 |

4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 0lb |
Beverley novice winner on debut over 5f on good; okay fourth in valuable event and ran to a similar level upped in trip at Thirsk, conceding weight all round; needs more. |

1 (4) |
2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Both starts on good ground at Beverley over 5f; made a winning debut in April and built on that when a respectable fourth in the Two Year Old Trophy in May; kept on that day, suggesting this step up to 6f should suit; respected under the penalty. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
3yo who won over C&D (soft) in June and good ground may not have suited when down the field over C&D last month; conditions are very much in his favour this afternoon and he's high on the list. |
6/1 |
|
10th 7 (8) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Nearly made a successful switch to handicaps at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) last September, just held by one who won three of his next five starts; had a quiet start to 2026 but did better when prominently ridden and having a little in hand against Milford Grange over C&D (soft) in June; up 3lb; capable of better. |

22nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made all at Thirsk (6f, good) in July on second start and fourth in warm novice there (6f, good) later that month; close third on nursery debut there (5f, good) last time and he showed promise on good to soft ground on his debut at Carlisle in May; every chance he'll be bang there. |
9/4 |
|
5 (11) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made all over 6f here on his second start and he ran into a subsequent Gimcrack (Group 2) winner when a respectable fourth here last time; those last two runs were under positive tactics and he looks interesting back at 5f on nursery debut. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a pair of 5f Newcastle handicaps late in 2025; back in excellent form of late, runner-up in 5f handicaps at Thirsk and over C&D; firmly in the picture again; return to 6f excuses his Redcar defeat on Tuesday. |
7/1 |
|
6th 7 (4) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Ended 2025 with a pair of 5f Newcastle nursery successes; back in fine form of late when runner-up in 5f handicaps at Thirsk and Beverley, only just failing on latter occasion; can make his presence felt back up to 6f despite 3lb weights rise. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
No win in five starts on turf, but he made it 3-7 on AW when scoring over 7f here in June; a disappointing effort over 6f at Southwell since needs forgiving but he has the best strike-rate in this field. |
6/1 |
|
6th 1 (2) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
No win in five starts on turf, but he made it 3-7 on AW when scoring under a prominent ride at Newcastle (7f, AW) in June; up 3lb but that was a game success and he should be unfazed by this drop back in trip; strongly respected. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Got off the mark in a Chelmsford nursery on AW last August but has failed to build on that since; sports first-time cheekpieces on this return to turf; needs a revival. |
16/1 |
|
8th 11 (11) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Made a successful AW debut at Chelmsford last summer; no progress since, including two AW runs last month, but back to his winning mark and a revival isn't out of the question. |
20/1 |
|
10th 6 (9) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Made a winning AW debut when seeing off six rivals at Chelmsford (5f) in August; not so good twice since but when back on AW two weeks ago it was after a 173-day layoff; not fully exposed and now steps back up in trip. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
0-7; placed in two of his first three starts over 7f/1m since returning in April, but with cheekpieces fitted was well held at Carlisle (7.7f, good to firm) last time; mixed messages as regard the longer trip and he needs to find more. |
10/1 |

7th 8 (7) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
0-6 and can look a difficult ride; rallied into third at Hamilton (1m, good) two weeks ago; needs to be sweetened up by cheekpieces. |
20/1 |

3rd 5 (10) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Headstrong sort but he's progressing with experience and posted a very good fifth of nine on his first go in handicap company at Doncaster (1m) 13 days ago; not out of things. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Ran respectably on fast ground last time when bidding for a 7f Yarmouth double (maiden previously); may have more to offer at this level, especially when the ground is slow; gained his win on soft. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the eighth attempt when winning on soft ground over this C&D three weeks ago (third start since being gelded); back up 3lb and likely has quicker ground to handle today. |
5/1 |
|
1st 7 (3) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-race maiden; shaped a bit better than the bare result, while seeming outstayed over 1m, at Haydock (good to soft) most recently; could go well off a reduced mark back down in trip. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark at Carlisle (6f) last September but she has failed to beat a rival in her last three starts, last time in a 7f Catterick handicap in July; needs a subsequent breathing operation to yield major progress. |
33/1 |
|
9th 6 (6) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a Carlisle nursery on soft last October (6f); well below her best all three runs since; return to faster ground a concern. |
22/1 |
