8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won an Ayr maiden (6f, good) and a C&D novice (good to firm) last August; some fair runs in handicaps this season, but he's not easy to predict and was beaten a long way with cheekpieces added at York last time; stablemate of Bleep Test. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Won Ayr maiden and Redcar novice last summer; 0-8 in handicaps but he's started to knock on the door from this reduced mark with a pair of third-place finishes this month; this is a better race but newly applied cheekpieces might eke out more. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning start for new yard at Catterick (5f) in May and doubled his tally at Newcastle (5f) following month; has beaten just one rival at York and back at Catterick on his last two starts though so has something to prove. |
20/1 |
|
8th 4 (10) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Made all, winning unchallenged, over C&D (Class 6; 5-2 favourite) in May; added to his tally at Newcastle (5f; from a mark of 68) the following month; latest York effort (Class 4; last of 12) was a poor one, with his trainer unable to offer an explanation; drawn widest of all. |
8/1 |
|
12th 13 (6) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Firmly on the up for his new stable, making all at Catterick before narrowly denied by Rotokura Belle over C&D; back to winning ways with a Newcastle success 15 days ago (much more convincing than the neck margin might suggest); up 6lb in a better race but he's a speedy and progressive 3yo who commands major respect. |

A down-the-field 66-1 shot on his first two starts, both over 6f last month; favourable draw not enough to make him of interest here. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |

66-1, slowly away and tailed off on last week's Thirsk debut (6f, good to firm); needs to have learned very quickly. |
50/1 |

15th 11 (4) |
15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
18,000euros foal, 27,000gns yearling; fourth foal; half-brother to winners Queue Dos (6f AW including 2yo; RPR 83) and Tees Touch (US 6.5f turf); dam 1m winner (77), sister to US 1m winner, out of Italian 1m2f Group 1 winning half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 1 winner Priory Belle; quite a bit to like on pedigree but yard is 1-23 with 2yos this season. |

Placed for a third time in five starts when second in a 5f course handicap in a first-time visor (retained) a fortnight ago; should prove as effective back at 6f and the form threat to Million Gold. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

Maiden who has inconsistent form overall and whose bare figures this season are meagre; receiving plenty of weight all round reflects the way he's been heading. |
16/1 |

5th 12 (10) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |

Yet to be placed after eight attempts; drops back to 6f for his first attempt in classified company but he is not a solid option. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Soundly beaten on seasonal debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago and has now been unplaced all seven starts; needs to have taken significant benefit from that recent outing. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Some solid efforts in maiden and novices (5f/6f) but he wasn't improving and could only carry that level over when sixth of nine on nursery debut at Haydock (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago; up in trip again for this AW debut. |
7/1 |

6th 6 (3) |
27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |

Runner-up in maiden/novice events over 5f/6f this summer; respectable fourth of nine in 6f Chester novice (good) last time; steps up to 7f for nursery debut. |
7/1 |

4th 5 (7) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |

Unable to justify favouritism but still posted a sound effort when clear second at Redcar (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago, on fourth start; will play a major role if in similar form again here. |

20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Six-race maiden; has shown improvement with three placed efforts at Ayr (1m/1m2f) this term, head second (clear of remainder) in classified event most recently; possibilities, provided he stays the new trip. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 10 (6) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-5; better since joining this trainer, twice placed over 1m here (Class 6); run style wouldn't suggest he's the most obvious candidate for 1m2f, but pedigree does offer hope; still open to improvement; isn't discounted. |
11/2 |

3rd 11 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Soundly beaten all three 2yo starts (6f-7f) but placed behind Hunterian over C&D (soft) when upped in trip for recent seasonal/stable/handicap debut; still unexposed and will be dangerous if that run brought him on. |

22nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

14-race maiden but he did go close at Catterick (6f, good to firm) in June; below that level since and others have more pressing claims. |

5th 12 (1) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Had a near miss at Catterick (6f, good to firm) in June but he's not come close to that form since and is now 0-13; others are more solid. |
14/1 |
|
7th 9 (4) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
0-12 but he's reached the frame in five of his last six starts including when fourth of 13 in a classified event at Newcastle (6f, AW) last month; this return to 7f is no problem and he's a key player back in a handicap. |

Well beaten at Redcar this spring in first two handicaps (6f/1m, good to firm/good) and a transformation is needed; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

8th 11 (8) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |

Showed little in three runs last term and fared no better for a switch to handicaps with cheekpieces added when last of seven on 6f course reappearance (good to firm) 17 days ago; it remains to be seen whether a 2f longer trip makes any difference. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won at Redcar (5f, good to firm) in May and good third at Ripon (5f, good) next time; she's back down to a handy mark but has gone off the boil on her last three starts; needs to get back on track in a first-time visor. |

5th 4 (5) |
27th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Off the mark at Redcar (5f, good to firm) in May off 2lb lower; has ruined her chance on latest starts by being fractious in the stalls at Beverley last month, and racing too freely at Ayr last Monday; needs to settle better. |
8/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won at Redcar (5f, good to firm) in May off a 2lb lower mark and she followed it with a good third at Ripon; played up beforehand and then in the stalls when disappointing at Beverley four weeks ago; needs to show that temperamental display was a one off. |
