8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Good step forward from debut when runner-up at Ripon, albeit beaten 5l in four-runner event, in September and backed that up when second again at Yarmouth (also 6f, good) the following month; has been gelded and interesting to see how he goes in the market ahead of this reappearance/handicap debut. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made a low-key start over C&D last month but he left that form behind when a 5l second at Ripon (6f, good); that was behind a useful rival who went off at 1-4 and he sets the standard on that form; key player. |

19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Narrowly won 6f selling nursery here off 1lb lower in November; respectable keeping-on fourth in 6f course handicap last week; steps up to 7f for just a second time. |

4th 4 (7) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Narrowly won a C&D selling nursery off today's mark in November; below that level in his next three starts but he posted a good effort when third of 12 here 29 days ago; contender. |
4/1 |

3rd 9 (8) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Narrowly won C&D selling nursery off today's mark in November, his fifth start, but his subsequent three runs were underwhelming; others have more pressing claims. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Readily won modest four-runner Ripon maiden (6f, good) for George Boughey in September but was unable to land a telling blow in two 5f handicaps for new stable this season; remains lightly raced and ought to be suited by this move back up in trip but others have less to prove. |

4th 5 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Landed 6f Ripon maiden (good) last September on his final run for George Boughey but didn't offer obvious short-term encouragement when down the field in 5f Thirsk handicap on return for new yard. |
8/1 |
|
11th 4 (9) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Son of Havana Grey who improved with each of his three runs at two, landing 6f Ripon maiden in September on his final run for George Boughey; has since changed hands for 52,000gns (also gelded) and very much one to consider on his handicap debut. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won a 6f nursery course nursery in December and also a close second over C&D last month (first run since being gelded); not so good on turf since but better can be expected back on AW. |
7/1 |
|
7th 7 (13) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a 6f nursery at Newcastle in December and went close there last time over 5f on his first start since being gelded; steps back up in trip and returns to turf; can make his presence felt. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
19th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 6f nursery here off 2lb lower late last year; below that level in two runs back and has been gelded since only beating one home down to this trip at Catterick six weeks ago. |
