2nd 5 (2) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Usually held up; third in a 2yo maiden was his sole run on softer than good; can race freely but showed improved form when upped to 2m for wins at Kempton (AW) and Nottingham (good) in his final two runs last season, and he continued on his upward curve when a close, never-nearer third of seven over C&D (good) three weeks ago; retains potential. |

3rd 4 (2) |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Improved form upped to 2m when winning at Kempton (AW) and Nottingham (good) in his final two runs last season; up another 5lb but he still looks feasibly treated and could continue on an upward curve as a 4yo; interesting contender on his return. |
100/30 |

1st 8 (4) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Promise in his qualifying races on turf, followed by two underwhelming runs in handicaps but he then delivered an improved show in nine-runner race at Kempton (upped to 2m, AW) four weeks ago, coming through strongly from last to first; 3lb higher today but he has more to offer as a stayer. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Progressive at ordinary level on the Flat last year, winning at Kempton (2m, AW) in October; however, well beaten on hurdle/stable debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) in December and needs to be a different proposition today. |
66/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Only made his debut in April and ran his best race yet when beaten less than a length into second of nine over C&D last month; just 1lb higher and remains open to further progress as a stayer; shortlisted. |
3/1 |

2nd 7 (9) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Disappointing start to his handicap career with cheekpieces added when last of seven at Ffos Las (1m4f) five weeks ago; the headgear is quickly discarded now stepping up significantly in trip. |

18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Maiden who's made the running in all four starts since handicapping on Polytrack; dropped 2lb since a fair comeback effort two weeks ago and is entitled to have come on for that. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (5) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Front-runner who is 0-6, but twice finished third on Polytrack (including over C&D) last September; more needed back from seven months off, but he may enjoy the run of the race. |
10/1 |

3 (3) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Two encouraging efforts over 2m on AW since handicapping, while shaping as if this return to shorter will prove ideal; possibilities. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
0-6 but she was beaten only 2l when fourth of nine at Kempton (2m, AW; winner and runner-up have won since); dropped away at Wolverhampton (2m, AW; first-time cheekpieces) five days ago having sat closer to the pace than ideal; headgear quickly discarded; may bounce back. |
4/1 |

5 (3) |
18th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Five-race maiden; improved effort (2l fourth) upped to 2m at Kempton most recently; possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |
6/1 |
|
4th 9 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Failed to cut much ice in AW middle-distance maiden/novice contests in the spring and well held on heavy-gound Windsor handicap debut (11.5f)) on return from a break 17 days ago; another who takes a big step up in trip. |

Unplaced all seven starts, finishing just under 2l behind Warrior King when fifth of nine over C&D last month; more needed. |

5th 6 (4) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
From a good yard but has struggled in three turf handicaps; did hint at promise in his qualifying runs on AW and needs the return to Polytrack to give him something extra. |
9/1 |

12th 9 |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |

Switched to turf for his two handicaps and wasn't that threatening at Haydock (1m3f, good to firm) and Sandown (1m6f, good); still early days. |

18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Veteran who's been sharply on the downgrade in recent times, coming 22lb down the weights in the past year; a long time since he wore headgear, which is likely fitted more in hope than expectation. |
20/1 |
|
6th 8 (4) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Veteran who is 1-29 on the Flat and has completely lost his way, including when last of nine (behind two of these) over C&D four weeks ago; opposable from 1lb wrong. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Has hindered himself by taking a good hold in a couple of 2m events since handicapping; chance depends on whether he settles better. |
10/1 |
|
7th 8 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Beaten a long way in three qualifying runs over 1m2f/1m4f in May/June, including 22l last of three at Salisbury on the final one; has had wind surgery ahead of this handicap debut after a 100-day break; not bred to be a stayer but is a half-brother to some useful sorts and needs a betting check in a race where nothing arrives with compelling claims. |
7/1 |
|
1 (2) |
10th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hooded for both starts to date but he still pulled hard when said to have become unbalanced early at Newbury last month; there must be a good chance he over-races again, in a small field upped in trip, and he's up against it even if settling better. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won against own age-group on hurdling debut at Ludlow (2m, good) just under a year ago but subsequent hurdle/Flat form has generally been underwhelming; not beaten far when tenth at Chepstow (2m3f, good) this month but makes only limited appeal here; headgear is switched again. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Well held on soft turf a fortnight ago but seems to save his best for AW, including runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f) and Lingfield (2m) in the spring; penultimate fourth of 13 back at Lingfield was also respectable and he's well treated on peak form. |
11/2 |
|
8th 1 (11) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Two seconds on AW and back-to-form fourth in that sphere on latest start; however, towards the rear on good ground on his only two turf starts, latterly when tailed off in a 1m6f handicap in June; a hood (absent this year) returns. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 (13) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up off 3lb higher over C&D in May but his form has nosedived with heavy defeats in both subsequent runs; record is now 0-12 and others are more convincing; visor is removed and cheekpieces return. |
