30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Won last summer on first two starts (6f, AW) then kept on for third of 18 in nursery at York (7f, good to firm) that worked out nicely; well beaten in Newmarket Group 3 (7f, good) on final 2yo start, which was followed by wind and gelding operations this March; also now has a first-time tongue-tie; needs to resume improvement in a major way. |

7th 7 (3) |
25th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won in good style on first two starts (6f, AW) and confirmed that promise when third of 18 on nursery debut at York (7f, good to firm) last month; needs a bigger performance if he's to take this, however. |

4th 6 (11) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Finished second in a Southwell novice last July on only AW start; has since shown decent form in various company at up to 7f on turf, with both blinkers and cheekpieces tried; sets the standard but he was only third at 8-11 at Redcar last time so probably vulnerable again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed promise in defeat on all four starts last year, finishing fourth of 26 in a sales race at Newmarket (7f, good) in October when last seen; first-time cheekpieces replace the blinkers adopted last time; leading claims if at the top of his game on this reappearance. |

4th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Fifth of 20 in a sales race on the July course (behind Court Alert) before probably raising his game to finish third in a small-field novice at Ascot (6f, soft); could well improve for 7f and tries blinkers, but others are far more convincing. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
A few costly defeats to date, twice hanging left on Tapeta last year; the money came again on his handicap debut a fortnight ago, having undergone wind surgery, and he's evidently felt capable of better; drops from 6f under 7lb claimer Oliver Hoodless (1-7). |
12/1 |

10th 7 (2) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Gelded prior to showing no improvement when last seen but has had another physical tweak, namely wind surgery, since and now switches to handicap level; may well take a step forward; interesting. |

1st 2 (3) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Enjoyed a fine spell on AW during the winter, winning four consecutive handicaps at 6f across January and February; came back to form when returned to 6f with third of 14 at Windsor (good to firm) on Saturday; same mark (due to go up 2lb) and this is less competitive. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 16 (5) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Enjoyed a fine spell on AW during the winter, winning four consecutive handicaps at 6f across January and February; good effort when second in Class 2 at Lingfield (AW; 50-1) on his next start at that trip but hasn't been at his best over shorter in two turf handicaps this spring; still not totally ruled out back at 6f. |
33/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Often front-runner and won four times on the AW over 6f this winter; gave it a good go from the front at Lingfield on Good Friday before weakening into sixth, but he was well beaten at Bath (5.5f, good) 26 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Improved upon debut fifth (6f, AW) to win at Ffos Las (7.3f, heavy) last month and he followed up in a novice at Newcastle (7f, AW); did it nicely under a penalty last time and could have more left in the tank; chance. |
15/2 |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Better than the result on AW debut and improved to win a maiden over an extended 7f in the mud at Ffos Las 16 days ago; may do better again. |

|
1st 4 (2) |
9th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
22-1 when fifth of 11 on his Southwell debut (6f, AW) in July where he would have finished closer with a clearer run; wouldn't be sure to benefit from the longer trip on breeding, but that was still a promising start. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ran well at Newmarket last time considering he did a bit too much up front over 6f; gained his 2yo win over 5f and the return to this trip looks ideal; respected off unaltered mark. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 7 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won Beverley maiden (5f, soft) in September; not much between him and Akabusi on an AW run later but he never reached a challenging position on his Bath return (50-1) in April and some weight off his back wouldn't go amiss; visor refitted. |
20/1 |
|
7th 10 (10) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
His maiden win came on soft ground and he is untried on faster than good; fourth to Akabusi when last seen in October suggests he's vulnerable, and he has an inexperienced apprentice booked. |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
5f AW win for Ed Bethell; good start for her new connections when a close second of ten at Ripon last month (6f, good; first two clear); up 3lb but she can't be ruled out. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (8) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
With Ed Bethell when knuckling down to land the odds in a 5f fillies' maiden at Southwell (runner-up 2-3 since) last September; joined this trainer the following month for 40,000gns; is fairly weighted back over 6f in handicap company. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Improved to finish second at Thirsk (5f) and it was a Class 2 nursery at the St Leger meeting in which she struggled next time; should be competitive at this level. |

9st 6lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last year, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) and Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in September; 7lb higher than for that latest success and needs to take a step forward from last month's reappearance at Windsor. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |

Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last summer, rounding off his 2yo campaign with wins at Kempton (1m) and Wolverhampton (9.4f); has more to do in this higher grade off a 7lb higher mark but he isn't fully exposed; returns with his trainer in fine form. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

8,000gns foal; fourth foal; sister to 5f 2yo winner Jeany May (RPR 70), half-sister to 6f winner El Montejean (79); dam 5f winner (70); would be a very rare first-time-out winner for the stable. |
