12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
8st 10lb |
Unraced on softer than good; emphatic wins in his first three handicaps, here on second occasion; the winning sequence ended on latest outing but he was a close second that day to the subsequent Melrose winner; has a fair bit to find on form but this 3yo should be open to further progress and he's a dark horse venturing beyond 14.5f for the first time. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Has been a textbook Prescott improver switched to handicaps this term, posting three emphatic wins, latest over C&D (good to firm); could well defy another big rise in the weights and complete the four-timer. |

1st 4 (3) |
4th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four 2yo runs at up to 8.5f barely scratched the surface of his potential and he ran out the comfortable winner of two handicaps last month, 1m4f at Ripon and an extended 1m6f at Doncaster last week; 10lb higher this time but still 2lb well in and he has more to offer as a stayer. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Made good strides last season and scored twice at up to 2m, latterly at this track (good to firm); shaped encouragingly on 2026 return (1m2f); failed to build on that at Windsor (11.4f) nearly ten weeks later but takes another step back up in trip today; well handicapped if he returns to his best. |
9/2 |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Brother to the top-class Cracksman; made good strides for Dylan Cunha last season (scored twice at up to 2m) and he shaped encouragingly over an inadequate 1m2f when fourth of eight in handicap at Pontefract in April; appeals as the sort to do well in 2026 and interesting now back up in trip. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Did well last season, including a win over 1m4f in April but he was best later on at about 2m (including at York); reappearance this term was pretty encouraging, considering it was over just 1m2f, and he looks a serious each-way contender. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 102y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
16lb below his last winning mark, but losing run now up to 15; might get more of a pace to run at than when fifth of nine over C&D last time, but others have more to recommend them; stable also runs Simiyann. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |
8st 3lb |
Handicapper has been relenting and he showed a lot more with third of 14 in a Racing League handicap at Newcastle (about 2m, Tapeta; 25-1) one week ago; a repeat of that puts him bang there; 2lb well in. |
11/2 |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has got himself well handicapped for good reason and his recent thirds were none too threatening; doubts remain; another tweak on the headgear front. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won three-runner Salisbury maiden (1m4f, good to firm) in June, on third start, but was safely held in both subsequent handicaps (1m6f/2m); needs new cheekpieces to generate some improvement. |
12/1 |

13th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Improved with each 1m4f run when qualifying, beating two rivals at Salisbury in the third of them; unable to make an impact in a warm race at Sandown (1m6f) on handicap debut in July, and now he's bumped into another Prescott improver, but he still has potential up in trip on AW debut. |
11/2 |

4th 5 (1) |
4th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three runs in 1m4f maiden/novice company this summer, improving his RPR with each start; latest three-runner affair not the easiest to assess but he's likely to stay this longer trip and there should be more in the tank. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Quite lightly raced since 2023 (when a fairly useful 1m6f scorer) but he took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 11 in 1m4f Southwell handicap two weeks ago, doing best of those coming off a steady pace; very much one to consider off a 2lb lower mark. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Rated a good bit higher in the past but has lost his way and was never involved here three weeks ago when behind Pleasant Man. |
14/1 |

6th 1 (6) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Has been a useful handicapper in his time but he was pulled up lame at Newbury in August and then tailed off over 2m here last month; tumbling down the weights but comes with risk attached. |
