25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ran up against smart types on first two 7f starts, on this track and at York (both on good), keeping on pleasingly into third on debut, then ran to similar level next time; was in the right place at the right time, unlike the second, when winning a C&D novice in September; open to improvement as a 3yo; goes handicapping with cheekpieces fitted. |

1st 2 (7) |
4th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Third in a novice here in May and similar form when fourth at York (again 7f on good) four weeks later; better is probably needed but 1m+ can help and his stable bids to win this race for the fifth year in succession. |

6th 12 (1) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
He's raced ten times but has shown improved form of late, winning narrowly in a small field at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) then second to Into The Light at Glorious Goodwood (1m3f, good to firm); stayed on well last time and could better that performance now at 1m6f; unproven on slow ground. |
20/1 |
|
2nd 9 (10) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Carried his head high in blinkers for last two starts but he challenged to win on the nod in a five-runner handicap at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) last time, getting off the mark at the ninth attempt; up 3lb and into a much more competitive race, he could still be thereabouts but others make more appeal for win purposes. |
8/1 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
A string of minor honours but no win from his eight races; disappointing on good to firm at Ascot in May, in between showing his best form at Kempton (1m3f, AW) and Sandown (1m2f, good); blinkers were fitted for that latest start, when he came from the back for fifth of 12 despite carrying his head high, and this race is markedly less competitive. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Promise at up to 1m in three maiden/novice runs on good or faster ground; cheekpieces enlisted prior to this handicap debut; new trip should suit and he is one to take seriously. |
9/2 |
|
4th 5 (9) |
30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Some market support when showing fair form in a maiden at Sandown (7f, good) last July and novice at Haydock (1m, good) in September; carries head high but still enters calculations. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 5 (10) |
4th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
By Australia out of 7f 2yo winner (RPR 95); 12-1 from 18-1 for maiden at Sandown (7f, good) six weeks ago, fading into sixth of 11 but he showed significant ability and should improve. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won over C&D (good to firm) last month and he resumed his progress when scoring at Haydock (1m, good) three weeks ago; that was a comfortable success, but he carried his head awkwardly in that race and failed to back that up at Newbury on Wednesday. |
10/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has won two of his last three and he raced too freely in the defeat; ridden more prominently when winning by a little under 3l at Haydock (1m, good; 6lb lower) last time and he needs a close look, for all that this is a stronger race. |
10/1 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Rallied well in first-time visor dropped back to 1m at Sandown (good to firm) last week but only fifth under a penalty at Newmarket (1m, good to firm again) on Thursday; will run off 2lb lower if turned out again quickly. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
He's raced four times this season and has suffered heavy defeats on three occasions, but two starts ago he easily made all at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) and it might be dangerous to write him off. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Left his first three handicap efforts behind when making all with ease over 1m4f at Catterick (good to firm) 13 days ago, proving well suited by the significant step up in trip; an extra 2f ought to be within range on that evidence, although this is a much stiffer track. |
8/1 |
|
1st 2 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Unplaced in six starts and has been well beaten in all three handicaps; slipping to a more workable mark but has plenty to prove at present, not least over this longer trip. |

2nd 6 (9) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Has won on various ground; strong finish for 4l sixth of 19 in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m4f) and that handicap form has worked out exceptionally well; as expected he was suited by the step up to 1m6f when winning at Ascot last month and could have more to offer at this trip. |
14/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Has contested four 1m4f handicaps this season and won twice in small fields on the AW, latterly despite veering badly right; 22-1 for red-hot race at Royal Ascot (good to firm) on latest outing but finished strongly for sixth of 19, which looked promising for today's test off 2lb higher. |
5/2 |
|
6th 18 (16) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Pontefract 1m2f winner (soft) as 2yo; contested three 1m4f handicaps this season and came a creditable third at Chester (good) in between winning twice in small fields on AW; latest win was despite veering badly right, away from the whip; up 4lb and, although he may have more in the tank, this race looks so much harder. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Found an ordinary Wolverhampton handicap when winning in first-time cheekpieces off 2lb lower two months ago; easy to back on turf last time, when running to a similar level, and today's extra furlong won't hurt on that evidence. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 8 (9) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Produced a career best when winning in added cheekpieces at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) six weeks ago; that form perhaps isn't the strongest on offer but he's open to further improvement off a 2lb higher mark. |
8/1 |
|
1st 6 (3) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Best effort when third of 11 on handicap debut at Thirsk (1m4f, good; first start since being gelded) last month; drop in trip may be no bad thing and cheekpieces are given a go; shortlisted. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Promoted to first by the stewards at Goodwood (1m4f) having been carried left by La Peregrina; disappointing favourite at Epsom since but may still have more to offer in handicaps. |
7/1 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Left inauspicious seasonal/handicap debut (1m2f) behind when very close second (subsequently awarded race) at Goodwood (1m4f, good) last month, reportedly benefiting from combination of step up in trip and first-time hood; could easily have more improvement to come. |
6/4 |
|
1st 2 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Failed to progress from his debut in novice/maiden company last year (all over 1m) and he never featured on his handicap debut/reappearance at Salisbury (1m2f, good; first start since being gelded) 27 days ago; better is needed now stepping up in trip with a hood applied. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |

Exposed but consistent and dug deep to prevail in a close finish over 1m2f here a month ago (they went steady); every chance off 2lb higher; third over this trip the time before. |
2/1 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to make any significant further progress since winning nursery debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in November but recent third of five here (11.4f, good to firm) was perfectly respectable and he may benefit from this drop back in trip. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Successful handicap debut at Wolverhampton (about 1m1f, AW) last November but has had a very mixed record at this level since, albeit this lesser test than at Newbury recently should be in his favour as he is down in grade and back on his winning mark. |
