8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly-raced, he has shaped with promise in novices/maiden over 1m3f-1m4f this year, latest in first-time tongue-tie (retained); steps up in trip on handicap debut and there should be more to come. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 15y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
4yo who was runner-up on belated debut at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in February and filled same position there (1m3f) recently on his first start for this yard; no threat to the winner on either occasion and improvement is needed, but can give another good account if taking to turf; a tongue-tie goes on. |

19th Feb 2026 2m 0f 57y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Three Class 5 C&D wins, the latest by a nose on penultimate start; ran respectably in a Class 2 C&D contest (fourth, 16-1) latest; likely to give his best, although others make more appeal. |

Behind New York Minute at Southwell before edging home in a Class 5 over C&D; will do well to follow up in this higher grade. |

Just 1-30 and nothing for a long time to suggest he can double his tally. |

19th May 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Useful in Ireland in his younger days but been poor under both codes for this yard for a good while; tailed off behind two of these at Pontefract last time. |
50/1 |

7th 11 (11) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 139y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
He's dropped to a basement mark but his sole win came in 2020 and this 9yo struggled to get competitive last year; first run since last October. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice last year, including over 12.5f here, but his losing run is beginning to mount up; now 6lb below his last winning mark but not easy to recommend after a heavy defeat over C&D one month ago. |
16/1 |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won twice last year, including over 12.5f here, but his losing run is beginning to mount up; cheekpieces left off last time are back on and he needs to show improvement. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 2f 98y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Notched back-to-back 2m wins at Newcastle (Class 5) and here (Class 4) last September; unable to justify strong market support - weakened from the furlong pole - on return from a four-month absence at Newcastle (2m; 7-4 favourite) a fortnight ago; may strip fitter and has a stamina-packed pedigree. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 11 (11) |
19th Feb 2026 2m 0f 57y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Progressive; made the breakthrough at Southwell (1m6f) in July; saw off Weddell Sea to win over C&D (by just over 4l) in September, before edging out Sax Appeal at Southwell (2m, Class 4) a fortnight later; this mark (2lb higher) is far from punitive if she is ready to roll off a 151-day break. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 102y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Has done well since stepping up to staying trips on Tapeta, winning here (1m6f) in July and at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) 13 days ago; not at her best when behind Sax Appeal and Zealandia at the latter track in between, but she remains open to further progress as a 3yo; respected. |
