21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed signs of greenness but he was beaten only a neck when second of ten on debut at Kempton (7f, AW; 25-1) ten days ago; that sets the standard. |

16th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won a nursery for Jack Morland here (7f; off 4lb lower) last November; third of five in added cheekpieces at Chelmsford (7f) latest; has since moved stables after 7,000gns sale; stamina inconclusive. |

3rd 1 (2) |

Opened his account in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in November and comes here on the back of a good fourth of eight in similar company there last month; cheekpieces go on now and firmly in the picture. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Record of 83321 reflects his steady progress; made all for 4l success in Chelmsford maiden (7f, AW) most recently and the form has received a couple of boosts; shortlisted. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Struggled on Newmarket debut but he's been placed in each of his three starts since, including at Doncaster (7f, good) 33 days ago; returns to AW; can go well but may prove vulnerable for the win. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hasn't achieved much in three runs at big prices; pulled hard upped to 1m2f last time, having appeared flattered at Thirsk, and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. |
33/1 |

8th 7 (2) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 4 |

Outsider in both starts; appeared to run well, finishing fourth, at Thirsk (1m) switched to turf on reappearance but looks the type who'll find better opportunities in handicaps shortly. |
25/1 |

4th 5 (5) |

21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Slowly away when down the field at Chester (6f, good; 6-1) on debut 41 days ago; now switches to AW (dam an AW winner) and steps up to 7f; more needed but he may well be capable of leaving that effort behind. |
10/1 |

11th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
45,000euros yearling, 10,000gns vendor 2yo (April breeze-up sales); trainer among the winners and had a 2yo newcomer go in at Ripon on Monday but stall 11 isn't ideal for this first foal of sprinter Declaring Love, who improved with time. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who landed three 1m handicaps last autumn, the last two at Newcastle (Tapeta); twice placed off 2lb higher at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) earlier this year, but may be vulnerable to an improver; visor replaces cheekpieces. |

Often front-runner; 3-4 in handicaps last term; back with two creditable supporting roles in five-runner handicaps at Kempton (1m3f, AW) when it looked like he would be suited by 1m4f+, but he failed to prove that when never dangerous and well beaten at Chester (good) last week with cheekpieces first enlisted; others are preferred. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has progressed with every run and his form has a solid look; came from well back when leading late on at Doncaster (1m, good) at the start of this month; drops back 1f in trip but he's not short of speed; open to further improvement and high on the list. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Chelmsford third last August (first run for this yard, among the winners of late) worked out well and he improved on that when off the mark on Wolverhampton AW (7f) in September; looks to start handicap career on a feasible mark and he goes on the shortlist. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Minor promise in his three qualifying runs (7f-1m1f) but ran well when keeping on for second of eight on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW) 13 days ago, shaping like this extra distance would suit; has since left Michael Keady (same owner); cheekpieces back on. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Dispayed only minor promise in his three qualifying races (7f-1m1f; cheekpieces tried last time) but ought to be a bit more competitive in this low-grade nursery. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 21y Class 5 |

Struggled in three novice/maiden events (6f/7f) on AW since August; this new trip could help on nursery debut but she needs major improvement on this switch to turf; hood added. |

8th 2 (8) |

20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Seems the most exposed contender in this field, being 0-11, but ran well (close second) in 9.5f handicap at Wolverhampton most recently and holds leading form claims back down in trip. |

2nd 7 (6) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

0-10 but she comes here in good nick, fifth of 12 in 1m Kempton handicap 30 days ago; holds place prospects. |
7/1 |

5th 12 (8) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Ran well at Lingfield (1m) most recently, achieving her first piece of placed form, but whether she can use that as a springboard to success is another matter; more exposed than most, being 0-9. |
