30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has built up a solid record (1122) and posted the last two efforts at Listed level; beaten favourite, showing no further progress, at Salisbury (1m) latest but shaped as if this drop back in trip is needed. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won novice events at Newbury (6.5f, good) and Salisbury (7f, good to firm) on first two starts and beaten a head in Listed race at Ascot (7f, good) on latest; made most in all three; stuck to his task extremely well last time but Morris Dancer seems to demand something of a different order. |
6/5 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Palace Pier colt who is two from two, having narrowly beaten Time To Turn at Newbury (6.5f, good) then justified short odds by a wider margin under a penalty at Salisbury (7f, good to firm); brings potential to this higher grade. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Ended 2025 with three wins; completed his four-timer when getting up late to land a handicap at Chester (7.6f, good) in May; that performance was more convincing than the winning margin might indicate and this 4lb higher mark should be in range; gelded since last seen; obvious chance. |
100/30 |
|
1st 8 (5) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Has a record of 3-5 overall and 2-2 since handicapping, most recently beating sole rival at Yarmouth (1m, good) seven months ago; beat a total of 16 opponents in gaining his other wins; major contender, with further improvement plausible. |
4/1 |
|
6 (3) |
11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Brings strong form having made his first two starts in races won by the subsequent Solario winner; off the mark at Ffos Las (7.4f, good) since and looks the type to do well in handicaps, with further improvement on the cards; respected. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won 6f maiden on Newcastle AW as 2yo for previous yard but has found it a mighty struggle since, without and with headgear (first-time visor today); has much to prove over this stiff test and needs more weight off back. |
25/1 |
|
11th 1 (6) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Newcastle maiden (6f, Tapeta) for George Boughey last October, but he's struggled in four runs for new yard this year; continues to drop down the weights but he needs a major revival back on AW; blinkers removed. |
33/1 |
|
10th 3 (3) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Not solid on his 7f form this term for new yard but may prove resurgent back at 6f in first-time blinkers; gained his 2yo win over this trip. |

3rd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Maiden; soundly beaten in four turf handicaps at 7f/1m, including at Doncaster last time, but he had found new reserves when runner-up over this C&D in August, so a return to form couldn't be ruled out back on this surface. |
16/1 |
|
9th 13 (3) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Seven-race maiden who ran well behind a useful rival on final start for previous stable; strong-finishing second with tongue-tie fitted at Southwell (1m, AW) most recently, proving resurgent and showing clear best form since joining current yard; respected in the retained oral strap. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Showed clear promise in novice/maiden events for Andrew Balding in the spring but he's struggled at big prices in three handicaps for current yard; still unexposed but he needs a transformation with tongue-tie added. |
25/1 |
