23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
3-4 on Tapeta and bids for a hat-trick after wins at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Southwell (1m); up another 7lb and is unraced on Polytrack, but still a major player. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
The blinkers experiment didn't work in July but he's won both AW outings since his debut, over C&D (maiden) and with authority at Wolverhampton (about 1m; second has won since) last month; hung left there, possibly away from the whip, but a 4lb rise shouldn't be beyond him; respected. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Won over 1m at Windsor in July and stepped up again returned to AW at Southwell last time; drops in trip but should give another good account. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

Beat a subsequent maiden winner when off the mark at Windsor (1m; first-time blinkers) in July but her profile isn't particularly progressive and she has more to do in this company off a 4lb higher mark. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Completed a hat-trick over 1m on turf/Polytrack in June last year, but those are his only victories in 34 starts; 9lb lower than for the latest, but others still look more compelling; eyeshield removed. |
8/1 |

7th 8 (5) |
30th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins have been over 1m; went close here over 8.5f in February and kept on into fourth (behind Cooramook) after missing the break over C&D last time; will need things to drop right given his hold-up style. |
14/1 |

4th 7 (9) |
14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
1m turf winner (soft/good to firm) who is 1-16 on AW (won over 1m on Polytrack); unexposed over 7f but to have a serious chance he'll need to raise the bar based on his last four starts. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 7f Tapeta maiden for the Crisfords and doubled his tally on third and final run for William Haggas when winning by 11l on soft ground at Ffos Las in June (first-time cheekpieces worn then are now removed); wouldn't want to be flattered by that having gone up 12lb; joined current connections last month for 30,000gns. |

1st 3 (6) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 80y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won a Newcastle maiden (7f, AW) for the Crisfords last September; having been gelded he has only managed midfield finishes in both starts since returning for this yard last month, albeit he met trouble on the first occasion; could fare better with cheekpieces given a go. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |

Successful twice this summer and ran creditably when favourite last time; still on career-high mark but is a consistent sort who again holds a solid chance. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
This is a classier race than he's accustomed to but he's been in fine form since returning from a break and it was comfortable over C&D a month ago; 6lb rise demands another career best but couldn't put it past him. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (3) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Record is only 1-19 but the success, at Nottingham, is among his recent form and puts him 1-1 under Oisin Murphy; ran creditably a few days later and remains a consistent sort; rested over five weeks since that last run; solid claims. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Patchy for Richard Fahey last year and has reverted to type for his new yard this time, having kicked off with a C&D win off 2lb lower in May; does like it here though, and this a bit easier, having been said to have hung right at Chester last time. |
8/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |

No further progress since his successful yard debut over Hamilton's extended 1m in May and others look on better terms with the handicapper. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |

Ended a long losing sequence (on his yard debut) over C&D in May but comes here on the back of a below-form sixth at Newcastle (1m) last month; needs to get back on track. |

Now 2lb lower than when keeping on well for close second behind course specialist in quite valuable Brighton Mile this summer, but recent Tapeta form has been underwhelming and he remains without a win since 2023. |

9st 6lb |
Went handicapping off a high mark after two good runs in AW maiden and novice events; on this career-low mark for last two starts at Wolverhampton (about 1m) and involved in a tight finish there last week; not far away. |

0-14, but appears to have reached a mark he can win from judging by his second of nine behind a subsequent winner over C&D six weeks ago; a player if building on that. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

Exposed 6yo who excels at Wolverhampton where's he won five times and yet on turf he's 1-19; close fourth on his favourite patch 12 days ago and 4lb lower back on the grass, but he wouldn't be the percentage call on first visit here. |

Five-time course winner who failed to enhance a good record for Rossa Ryan when fluffing the start here a fortnight ago; has a competitive mark, though, and holds each-way claims under Pat Cosgrave. |
