17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Tried in Listed/Group races (no avail) after making a winning debut at Wolverhampton (5f) in April; fair sixth on first start for Charlie Clover in a competitive 6.5f nursery (12-1) at Doncaster's St. Leger Festival; mildly interesting to see what she makes of returning to AW. |

Campaigned over 5f for Karl Burke; drops back in class but doesn't seem to be crying out for this longer trip on debut for new yard; remains with same owner. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Long odds-on when breezing clear on Wolverhampton debut in May; creditable front-running third in Listed event at York (5f, good to firm) next time but she was well below that form in the Queen Mary (Group 2) at Royal Ascot; still early days and now drops back in class but she's not the only pacesetter in this line-up and others are more persuasive. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Application of headgear yielded an upturn in fortunes but she was still springing a surprise when winning the 20-runner £100,000 Tattersalls Somerville Auction at Newmarket (6f; 33-1) in August; failed to stay 7f in Sweden (fourth) latest; current mark looks perfectly fair if taking to AW. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
0-5; ran well to be second in a Ripon nursery (6f; first-time cheekpieces) but that would suggest her current mark is about right and therefore has something to find with the pick of these; now blinkered. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Didn't look to see out a stiff 7f from the front on her nursery debut 12 days ago; has the rail draw if she gets away again in first-time cheekpieces but is starting to look exposed now. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Narrowly landed a C&D maiden a year ago, but failed to beat a rival on his return from 111 days off at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) in February and has been off another seven months since; has enough to prove for now. |

9st 1lb |
Won a Lingfield maiden (6f, Polytrack) on his third start but was unable to get involved on his handicap debut at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) since; drops 1lb but on that evidence is not on an obviously lenient mark. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Has given superb value since the autumn, winning five 6f handicaps on the AW between October and January; even better in turf sprints since, landing a 6f handicap on the Rowley course here (good to firm) and finishing strongly to take second on his side to a handicap blot in the big 5f race at Royal Ascot; rock solid to go well back at 6f. |

3rd 4 (28) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Made hay on AW over the winter and then found another burst of improvement to win at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last month; admirable as he is, this looks an extremely stiff task now dropping to 5f for the first time; sold for £200,000 at the Goffs London Sale on Monday. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |

Productive gelding, mostly over 6f and on AW; prevailed by a neck in Newmarket handicap (good to firm) back on turf last time, taking record to 7-12; has bits of 7f form, including at Listed level; in the mix. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner in late spring; in good form since and run best ignored (poorly drawn) when last of 11 over C&D two weeks ago; needs considering. |
20/1 |

2 (12) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Gained a second C&D success in fine style in May; hiked up 10lb but not discredited after a three-month layoff when in the frame at Southwell (7f) and Chester (7.5f) since; this front-runner is very much one to consider back here but has the outside draw. |

Turf wins on good and good to firm; made all for two 7f AW victories earlier this year and back from a break with a solid 2l third at Southwell; possibilities. |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made all in a valuable Musselburgh seller (5f, good) in June but has beaten a total of one rival in two 6f nurseries (good to soft/AW); down another 2lb and return to 5f may help, but enough to prove. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Nice attitude when making all in a Musselburgh seller (5f, good; 8-13 favourite) in June; given a three-month break thereafter but failed to shine (bumped at the start) on nursery debut at Pontefract (6f; 8-1); now 3lb lower, with a 5lb claimer booked; AW debut; still early days. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Immediate progress for the switch to nurseries (after being gelded) when winning at Leicester (5f) and Southwell (6f); the handicapper has attempted to thwart that momentum but he still ran solidly behind a well-handicapped rival at Chelmsford (7f; 11-2) latest; 2lb higher again and back in trip. |
13/2 |

2nd 3 (5) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won his first two nurseries (5f/6f, good/AW) but he's taken backward steps in last two starts and was beaten around 8l at Redcar (6f, good to soft) last week; the slow ground may have been an issue but he needs to resume his progress at this new trip. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won first two nursery starts (5f/6f, good/AW) and didn't run badly when fourth of seven at Chelmsford (5f, AW) last time; needs something extra today but that can't be ruled out; unproven on slow ground. |

A fair 6f juvenile winner for Ed Bethell; yet to add to it for her current yard but she comes here in decent form, cheekpieces on (retained today) when fourth of ten in 6f handicap here 17 days ago; not out of things. |
7/1 |

4th 8 (6) |
2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win was 13 months ago but she's unexposed on AW and wasn't beaten far off this reduced mark at Bath (5.6f, good to firm) on Tuesday; cheekpieces are now added and she has claims if she can find extra spark back on Tapeta. |

6f winner last year; unlucky not to have won this campaign but she did run moderately last time at Salisbury. |
