4th 10 (10) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced compared to most of these and holds obvious claims on his last-time 6f win here in March; always the concern that he'll pull hard again, from a wide stall, after two months off, but he's been found the right race. |
9/4 |

1st 8 (5) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Yet to get his head in front but has run well on three occasions since switching to handicaps, latest when second of nine at Chelmsford (6f) last Thursday; a replication of that form should see him go close. |
5/2 |

2nd 9 (9) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Gelded prior to finishing behind two of today's rivals at Wolverhampton last week; encouraging efforts otherwise in handicaps but needs to rebound. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made the frame on all three 2yo starts (5f-6f) and again showed clear promise when fifth of 14 on recent seasonal/handicap debut at Beverley (5f, good to soft), despite racing too freely in the early stages and hanging left at the business end; back up in trip and 2lb lower here; a possible. |
7/1 |
|
5th 10 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Three fair efforts in maiden/novices last season, notably when third at Leicester on debut (5f, good to soft); unexposed; quite interesting on handicap debut. |
14/1 |
|
4 (4) |
31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Going nowhere at halfway but the penny dropped in the closing stages of his Leicester debut 24 days ago and he was only beaten a neck into third at the finish (5f, good to soft); 6f should suit and he is open to improvement; good chance in an uncompetitive race. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Still a maiden but has several pieces of encouraging form, most recently third of 17 in cheekpieces at Nottingham (5f) last weekend; effective over 6f and has possibilities if taking well to visor. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (9) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-11 but has been running with credit on AW this year, meeting trouble in running on several occasions; sports first-time cheekpieces and drops down in trip on this return to turf; should be thereabouts. |
6/1 |
|
5th 12 (1) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Remains winless but he arrives in very good nick, not seen to ideal effect when third of nine in 6f Chelmsford handicap 12 days ago; very much one to consider eased 1lb. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two promising runs over 5f for this yard last autumn; stepping up to 6f should be in his favour and he is open to improvement but such progress looks essential if he is to defy this mark. |
20/1 |
|
4 (7) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Trailed throughout when last of seven on debut at Catterick (5f, good) in August when trained by Danny Brooke; much sharper when second of 12 at Beverley (5f, soft; 200-1) on stable debut and should go close judged on that. |
4/1 |
|
7 (12) |
17th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Missed the break and was always behind when a remote last of seven on Catterick debut (5f, good; 200-1) last month; left Danny Brooke since then and is best watched on stable debut. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark by a short head at Leicester (5f novice, good to soft) in October and subsequently gelded; creditable third in handicap at Ripon (6f, good) on return 18 days ago and won't mind the drop back in trip. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (2) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Rewarded for a series of consistent efforts when scrambling home in a 5f novice at Leicester (6-5 favourite) last October; gelded, and back from a winter break with the possibility of more to come; shouldn't be troubled by returning to 6f. |
5/1 |
|
5 (3) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
The most experienced of these and has run well to finish third on his last three starts, the last two in nurseries; this looks to be an ideal opportunity to get off the mark. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Second foal, by Ardad; dam unraced half-sister to winners Mabs Cross (5f Group 1), Eccleston (useful 5f/6f including 2yo) and Charlie Em (US 1m Grade 3), out of 5f 2yo Listed winner; yard rattling in the winners with three juveniles scoring already this month, so he needs to be taken seriously on debut. |
