5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished last on his handicap debut (first-time cheekpieces), upped to this trip having offered little in three runs over 1m, but wasn't beaten far in a messy affair; may ultimately want more of a test, judged on pedigree, but is one to keep an eye on. |

26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Well beaten in three novice/maiden events over 1m but he's bred to be suited by middle distances and may have more to offer now entering handicaps; cheekpieces go on. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Well held in two runs (1m) this spring, with RPRs in the 50s on both occasions; stablemate of Sea The Light and he remains best watched for now. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Made virtually all in a five-runner race at Yarmouth (1m1f, good to firm) last month and followed up in another small field at Bath (11.5f, firm) 15 days ago; up 6lb for last time and steps up in grade, but can't be dismissed in his bid for the hat-trick. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dictated matters from the front to win in a small field at Yarmouth 12 days ago (1m1f, good to firm); effectively 9lb higher as they claimed 5lb that day, but stamina won't be an issue over this far. |
11/10 |

1st 1 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Frequent front-runner who won by a short head off this mark during a solid sequence over 1m2f last summer/autumn, including under Mason Paetel; back-to-form second of five at Leicester on latest outing, so big shout. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
16-race maiden whose mark continues to plummet and he finished last of six at Musselburgh (1m4f, good to soft) ten days ago; no signs that he is ready to turn it around. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Best positioned when off the mark in slowly run C&D race (17-2) three weeks ago; up just 2lb and Hollie Doyle is again in the saddle, so needs respect despite chance that the cards might not fall so favourably this time. |
11/2 |

1st 9 (3) |
25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
14-race maiden; mark has tumbled but she does need to pull out more if she is to break her duck. |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

26th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
He's on a handy mark on his form last June/July, when winning over C&D, and a market check is advised on his reappearance; however, he went off the boil last autumn and returns minus cheekpieces (worn when winning). |
10/1 |

5th 7 (7) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
C&D win in first-time cheekpieces off 5lb lower in June has been boosted by those behind since; latest effort, over further on heavy ground, is probably best ignored and he's one to consider for a yard among the winners over jumps of late. |
6/1 |

1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Record since wearing cheekpieces comprises an account-opening win at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) and two placed efforts, close third at Nottingham latest; solid claims in the retained headgear. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
In fine form in recent months and bids for a course hat-trick; had half a length to spare over Arth's Gold over this trip last time and is now 3lb worse off, but something appears to have clicked; major player. |
11/4 |

1st 6 (5) |
5th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Took him 19 attempts to break his duck but his last three efforts read 121, the latest win coming by a head over 1m3f here eight days ago; 3lb rise fair enough and should stay the extra furlong; shortlisted. |
3/1 |

1st 4 (7) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Good second at Chelmsford last time when making debut for John Butler and bidding to complete a 1m2f double (maiden previously); remains in form and he has shaped well over C&D; respected. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |

Maiden prior to posting form figures of 1133 in last four appearances, close third at Doncaster (1m) on seasonal debut latest; upped in grade but may remain competitive. |
9/1 |

25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Scored twice (around 1m) at Leicester and Lingfield last summer but not seen out after a solid third in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap in September; she has gone well fresh though so can't be discounted. |
8/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Had showed winning potential before coming good at Leicester and following up at Lingfield (1m AW), again with a bit in hand; raised a collective 7lb but could deal with that. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Nine-race maiden who hasn't built on a promising handicap debut at Ripon (6f, good) in May; well held in three starts over 5f-7f here; look elsewhere. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Only poor form shown thus far and a below-par fifth of ten in 6f Thirsk classified event ten days ago; she's hard to warm to. |
