6th 9 (3) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Useful bumper winner; has been brought along steadily in this sphere, a patiently ridden seventh in 1m4f Kempton novice 26 days ago; looks capable of a fair bit better now going handicapping and not without interest. |
9/1 |
|
7th 3 (5) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Bumper winner who has perhaps found 7f/1m in adequate in his modest Flat attempts; may do better over this longer trip but handicaps are likely to be his ideal scene. |
66/1 |
|
2 (8) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Useful bumper winner; unable to make an impact in two Flat runs in August and he will be of more interest when upped in trip and handicapping in due course. |

2nd 7 (11) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
His latest Newcastle defeat isn't the run to judge him on and he had been progressing well beforehand; no problem with the return to turf and stepping back up to 7f will be of benefit; interesting with cheekpieces now given a go. |
9/2 |
|
13th 8 (1) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Unexposed and progressive handicapper who has two wins and two seconds to his name from four AW appearances; lost little in defeat at Kempton 16 days ago when chasing home a smart rival who was winning the race for the fourth time; a stiff 6f should be fine but stall 1 might not be beneficial given the forecast of a brisk crosswind; stable also runs Ferrous. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Ridden forward and improved each of his three starts last year, achieving a first and second over C&D before seeing off Serengeti at Wolverhampton (also 7f); looks set to make an even better 4yo and prove tough to beat. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Close fourth of eight in a Lingfield maiden (1m, Polytrack; 200-1) last September but his other two efforts for Paul Attwater either side were modest; makes his handicap debut after six months off; watch market. |
14/1 |
|
3 (2) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Left August's debut (7f, AW) behind when close fourth of eight at 200-1 at Lingfield three weeks ago, when he didn't enjoy a clear run (1m, AW; Return To Unit second); however, further improvement is needed here. |

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

Well beaten all three novice runs (6f-7f); latest offers hope that this initial handicap mark is a fair one; could now begin to show more; interesting. |
6/1 |

5 (11) |
27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Similar efforts over 6f on turf, beaten 10l both times; new scenario needs to prompt major improvement. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |

The first foal of a Group 3 winner but didn't achieve much when 10l fourth on 6f Leicester debut (good to firm) four weeks ago; significant improvement needed. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Unexposed 4yo who managed to defy a three-month absence at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; 4lb rise looks manageable and there may yet be more to come from him; considered. |
6/1 |
|
1st 9 (6) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the fifth attempt, in emphatic fashion when evens for a Southwell novice (1m, AW) in November; set a steady pace on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f) three months ago but lost out in the final 1f, still a good effort in second of six; carries his head a little awkwardly but leaves the impression there is more improvement in him. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 (3) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Thrice-raced gelding who has steadily progressive RPRs; good second at Nottingham (1m) most recently; possibilities back on AW, provided he stays the longer distance. |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

30,000gns foal 28,000gns yearling; half-brother to winners Tagline (Group-placed 5f 2yo; RPR 95), Koepp (5f/6f including 2yo/AW/HK; 93) and Ladyleys Beluga (5f AW; 76); dam unplaced 6f/7f (67), half-sister to 6f 2yo Listed winner Brevity; already gelded and stable's older newcomers are usually better for a run, but did have a winning 3yo debutante last month; watch market. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

7 (6) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Four-race maiden; disappointing favourite kept to 7f last time but gave the impression this drop back in trip is worth exploring; major player on peak efforts. |
11/4 |
|
5 (6) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Shaped well amidst evident inexperience on his Chelmsford debut last November (6f); not so good on his reappearance in May but he was gelded and underwent wind surgery soon after that; back from a break with a fine second at Kempton two weeks ago (wore this combination of accessories for the first time); obvious claims with a repeat. |

14th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
120,000euros yearling; Sea The Stars half-brother to 1m winner Clove Hitch (RPR 103); 25-1 in demanding company for a novice event at Newbury (1m2f, good) three months ago, never dangerous and well beaten before he was hampered 2f out; had wind surgery not long afterwards and he also now has cheekpieces and tongue-strap. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Managed third in a C&D 0-80 last month and duly did the business in 0-75 company, also over track and trip, 23 days ago; this is even easier, although he's up 4lb, and Jack Dace can keep the ride in this apprentice contest; headgear (hood) goes on, presumably in attempt to settle him. |
4/1 |

1st 8 (4) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won over C&D in November and probably put up an even better performance when beaten half a length into third of nine in a 0-80 back here four weeks ago (runner-up has won since); races off the same mark and remains unexposed for a 4yo; high on list. |
11/4 |

3rd 10 (3) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Off the mark in a Class 6 over C&D in November but finished over 7l behind Final Night on last month's return in a Class 5; has even more on his plate back in a Class 4. |

Beaten 17l or more in her three qualifying runs and last two were at this track (6f/7f); now goes handicapping at this new trip but she needs a transformation. |
