22nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after wins in Windsor novice event (1m, soft) and Chelmsford nursery (1m2f, AW; easily); bare figures suggest he's still well treated despite 8lb rise; improving colt who warrants respect. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Placed twice over 7f before displaying improvement to win quite valuable Windsor novice (1m, soft) 17 days ago; needs to transfer that progress to Polytrack on this nursery debut but ought to be suited by today's trip. |

1st 7 (3) |
1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Similar efforts over 7f on good to firm ground, finishing third both times, latest at Yarmouth eight days ago (82 days after debut); gives the impression this extra furlong will suit; leading player at the weights. |

2nd 2 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Completed a hat-trick at Doncaster (6f) in November and continued in very good form when placed in four handicaps this season, including when third of 14 at York (7f) in May. Came in well held there (7f) last time but he's the sort to bounce back. |

16th 4 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Reliable type who again gave his running when third of 14 over C&D at the Dante meeting (good); nudged up 1lb but that should not prevent another bold bid. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Nursery winner at 1m; another good effort when third at Windsor (1m, good to firm) before perhaps unsuited by soft ground at Lingfield; enters the equation. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Stepped up on reappearance when third of ten over 1m at Windsor (good to firm) a fortnight ago, although he faded inside the final furlong and this sometimes keen goer wouldn't be sure to benefit from this slightly longer distance. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (8) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Consistent once handicapping last season before finding 1m2f beyond him latterly; entitled to have come on for his recent comeback, having been gelded, and this is easier but he's vulnerable to improvers now. |
8/1 |
