Hanging to his left may have cost him dear when a close fourth behind Barnsnape Boy in a C&D classified event 12 days ago; each-way claims if keeping straighter. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often a front-runner; returns to turf for the first time since winning a 0-60 handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last July but he does appear to face a difficult task on these terms. |

Front-runner who won over C&D in 2024; beaten around 6l when third here in January but he's been well held in two starts since; others preferred. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Nine-race maiden but she ran well to finish third off a reduced mark here (1m, good to soft) two weeks ago; has claims if she can back that up but slow starts can be an issue and not sure this drop back in trip will suit; tongue-tie added. |
13/2 |

3rd 9 (11) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Regressive eight-race maiden but she wasn't beaten far after missing break at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; dropped another 2lb and she could get involved if this sets up for her closing style. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Still seeking a first win (0-7); fifth on recent stable debut at Wetherby (1m, good; first-time hood) and it's possible that she'll be sharper for that, her first run since early April; it's worth monitoring her progress but others make more appeal for now. |

C&D winner who was runner-up over 8.5f at Beverley in April and May; below his best over that same C&D last month but has good claims on his first try in classified company. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

29th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Gained sole win in a classified event and has made the frame several times at that level in 2026; not the percentage call returned to a handicap and going into unknown territory trip-wise. |
16/1 |

6th 2 (2) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

The winner of just one of his 42 starts but that success came in a 0-50 classified event on Tapeta and when ridden by Billy Loughnane (record on him reads 122425); finished in front of Hopjes when second over C&D ten days ago; should be involved again. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
110,000euros breeze-up buy but she's not finished than fifth in her five runs so far including two handicaps; may have needed her reappearance run at Kempton (7f) last month but she needs a transformation back up in trip. |

This 110,000euros breeze-up buy was rather underwhelming at two (including on nursery debut at Chelmsford); drawn wider than ideal here. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Resumed winning ways at Nottingham (1m) in April but his form has dipped of late, just sixth in 1m Ayr handicap last time; others appeal more. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins came over this trip on the AW at the start of the year, but he has made the frame several times on turf; was found to be coughing after running poorly at Thirsk ten weeks ago; can go well fresh and not easily dismissed. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Made it two wins from three starts this year when picking up well to lead towards the finish over C&D 16 days ago; the third (Call Glory), fourth and fifth in that race have all run well since so the form has bit of substance; respected up 2lb. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Struggled at big prices in his three qualifying runs but this is more realistic on handicap debut and he's a possible improver on this step up to 1m; needs checking in market. |
16/1 |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
