8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A 16-1 winner on nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); back to form upped to 1m on last two starts, with an excellent second at Ripon (1m, good; probably acts on soft) on latest; by a sprinter out of 1m6f winner; others perhaps are a little less exposed. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A 16-1 winner on nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); back to that form when a close third at Sandown, finishing just behind Assaranca (1m, soft); down another 2lb so hard to dismiss. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Sprung a 16-1 surprise on his nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); two lesser efforts have followed but he faced a stiff task back at 6f at York's Ebor meeting three weeks ago; some encouragement for 1m on dam's side of pedigree but he's by a sprinter and it remains to be seen if he'll see it out, especially were the ground to deteriorate markedly. |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Made his breakthrough (sixth attempt) when coming from rear to justify support in a nursery at Epsom (7f, good) last month; up 6lb but that was a clearcut success and he's open to more progress; shortlisted. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Saw out 7f well when runner-up on handicap debut at Leicester (good to firm; Sweet Lord fourth, Booziebrunch fifth); lost all chance at the start in a valuable Glorious Goodwood nursery a fortnight ago; player back down in grade. |

Saw out the 7f well when runner-up on nursery debut at Leicester (7f, good to firm) but coming up short in that Class 5 makes him opposable at this loftier level. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Kept on well to score over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago, opening his account at the 12th attempt; subsequent 3lb rise does not look excessive and he ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
3/1 |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-11 but he has shown winning potential and he wasn't beaten far over C&D two weeks ago; another bold bid expected. |
4/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Probably started handicap life on a demanding mark and he'd dropped 10lb before going down by just under 2l when fifth of 15 at Doncaster (7f, good) in first-time blinkers on latest outing; hit the front over 1f out that day but wandered under pressure; needs to see it out better. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Slow learner but gradual improvement in three qualifying runs between 5f and 7f; gelded and didn't carry that progress over to his first nursery when fourth of seven at Leicester (7f, good to firm; Gascony second, Booziebrunch fifth) one month ago; still didn't look the finished article that day and will likely cop on at some point; gets first-time tongue-tie and blinkers. |
9/2 |

4th 5 (1) |
17th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Looks a slow learner but gradual improvement in three qualifying runs between 5f and 7f, still green when seventh of 12 at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last time; has been gelded and is the type to do much better in handicaps; interesting. |
9/1 |

10th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Down the field in races over 5f and 7f, beaten about 6l both times; plenty to find on bare figures and looks likely to be more interesting when nurseries commence. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Most consistent this year having made the frame on all seven starts, including a win at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in June off 5lb lower; looks sure to be thereabouts. |
11/4 |
|
4th 5 (8) |
13th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with a runaway win over two rivals at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in June; held in another small-field event at Epsom last time but that was a solid front-running effort behind an improver; still unexposed at this trip and he should be in the mix again back on AW. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 (2) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Reliable 3yo whose two wins (from 13 races) were in very small fields, latterly when making all at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago; that was a runaway win and the first time he's made the running, but he's 5lb higher today in what looks a more competitive race. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Maiden after 15 starts but has been placed several times; ran well enough behind Cashel Blue over C&D last time but seemed to find this test a bit sharp; has to do more. |

4th 2 (9) |
29th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Maiden was runner-up three times in a row at Dundalk during the winter; not as good in recent months; midfield in 6f Curragh handicap on latest but this is an ease in grade; Colin Keane takes over; high draw not ideal. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Application of headgear yielded an upturn in fortunes but she was still springing a surprise when winning the 20-runner £100,000 Tattersalls Somerville Auction at Newmarket (6f; 33-1) in August; failed to stay 7f in Sweden (fourth) latest; current mark looks perfectly fair if taking to AW. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
0-5; ran well to be second in a Ripon nursery (6f; first-time cheekpieces) but that would suggest her current mark is about right and therefore has something to find with the pick of these; now blinkered. |
20/1 |
|
3 (7) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Didn't look to see out a stiff 7f from the front on her nursery debut 12 days ago; has the rail draw if she gets away again in first-time cheekpieces but is starting to look exposed now. |
