7th 12 (1) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
First three wins were on turf but last three have come on Tapeta; only 1lb higher than for his Wolverhampton win in January but that was a Class 5 and he finished out the back in his final run during the winter; now goes back up in grade and he has work to do after 189 days off. |
25/1 |

10th 9 (8) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Completed a double over C&D in November and he got back on the scoresheet when making all at Wolverhampton (7f) three weeks ago; that was a narrow success but he's only 1lb higher and could make another bold bid back in trip. |
8/1 |

1st 8 (1) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
6f wins at Wolverhampton and Southwell in the autumn; runner-up twice since and he wasn't beaten far when favourite at Southwell (fifth of eighth) last time; now returns to 7f but he has plenty of form at this trip and he's in the mix. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; only 2lb higher here, but has mixed record since that last success and he was down the field at Beverley last time; others are more persuasive. |
11/2 |
|
6th 5 (9) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; respectable fifth of ten at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago but he remains 4lb above the mark he defied at Haydock. |
11/1 |
|
5th 1 (1) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; struggled at York last time but that was a highly competitive Class 4 event and he was runner-up here (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; has claims if he can recapture that form and he's not ruled out on this drop back in grade. |

5th 7 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Doubled his winning tally when beating four rivals (including Too Much Trevor) over C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago; only 2lb higher and may be the one to capitalise if Prefer The Sister runs below form. |
6/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
1-26 but generally consistent; didn't show any obvious improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when third here (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago and likely to be competing for minor honours. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-25 but he went close over 7f at Wolverhampton in March and his Bath third last month (5.7f, good to firm) was another sound effort; should remain competitive with first-time cheekpieces added. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins from 23 starts include one here over 7f at April; left the impression he's still in form after missing the break here over 7f last week but he's been well beaten in two previous tries over 1m; stamina to prove. |
9/1 |
|
4th 8 (9) |
13th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Does a lot wrong in his races (often misses the break and/or pulls too hard) but he has two 7f AW wins to his name, including off this mark over C&D in April; others are more appealing this time. |
25/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins on the AW, the latest at Lingfield (7f) in April; twice well held since despite just a 2lb rise and others make greater appeal. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
This is only his third race on turf but he finished last and second last in the others; none of his 2025 or 2026 form reads well enough and his 0-33 overall record is probably the bottom line. |
66/1 |
|
8th 9 (7) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Poor maiden who's done most racing in sprints and not looked to see it out in a handful of starts over this trip; two poor efforts this spring leave him hard to recommend. |

Three C&D wins, the latest in September off a 2lb lower mark; that race panned out perfectly though and latest Wolverhampton effort suggests he is vulnerable. |

11th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Two wins this season, the latest a comfortable success at Newcastle (for today's apprentice) 16 days ago; enjoyed a clear run there while a few of those in behind got in the way of each other but a 2lb rise is still fair enough; more appealing than many. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Not offered a great deal in two handicap runs for new stable, the latest over C&D last week; down in the weights but not a solid option. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (9) |
11th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
His standout effort last year came over 6f on soft ground; low-key stable debut at Chepstow in August and although he has low mileage, he comes here with a bit to prove. |
16/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Best effort came when third at Lingfield (6f, soft) last July on his second start; tailed off on his first start for 332 days in Jersey (1m1f, firm) in June; drops back to 6f having been gelded ahead of his stable debut (left Martin Dunne); watch the market. |

9st 4lb |
Four wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from ten runs over C&D and bounced back to form 18 days ago (7f, Polytrack) on his first start since undergoing a second round of wind surgery; on a very attractive mark if building on that. |
