27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Second of 14 over C&D in October and had an excuse (hampered, then lit up) over C&D in November when last seen; however, he's inconsistent and needs to be at the top of his game on this return from a break. |

Not firing on all cylinders since a wind op in July; returning to AW may help but this looks a competitive race in which to try and bounce back. |

Won off today's mark at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) in May and ran okay when fifth to Filey Beach over this C&D (good to soft) last time, but he needs something extra if he's to pose a threat today. |

Five AW wins on his record but 0-23 on turf; well beaten on turf on his last two starts (around 1m) and dropping in trip isn't enough to tempt. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Tends to be slowly away and is the type who needs everything to drop right if he's to win, but he's run several good races on AW this year and was fourth of 14 back on turf at Thirsk (7f, good) recently; in the mix. |
7/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Three-time winner who is fine at 7f or 1m; has been running well for a while and latest effort in the new visor at Newcastle can be upgraded. |
14/1 |

7th 11 (2) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Running well at this level in recent weeks, coming from last to first over 1m here before finishing second at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Southwell (1m); just as effective at 7f; the blinkers he's worn on his last five starts are now replaced by a first-time visor; should go well again. |

Both wins came over this trip on the AW at the start of the year, but he has made the frame several times on turf; was found to be coughing after running poorly at Thirsk ten weeks ago; can go well fresh and not easily dismissed. |

12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Made it two wins from three starts this year when picking up well to lead towards the finish over C&D 16 days ago; the third (Call Glory), fourth and fifth in that race have all run well since so the form has bit of substance; respected up 2lb. |

Dual C&D winner; got up late to win a handicap at Beverley (7.5f, good) last month and ran another respectable race when fourth in a classified event at Ayr (1m; Park Lane Penny was second) 11 days ago; claims. |

3-23; did too much too soon at Musselburgh (7f; fourth, 6-4 favourite; third has won since) on penultimate start; made amends over C&D ten days ago, beating Crocodile Power (runs in the 3.10pm) by over 2l; that was an apprentices' handicap so he escapes a penalty (is due a 5lb rise); key player. |

9st 6lb |
Series of good runs since fitted with a visor, winning at Ayr in July (1m, good to soft) then finishing third on his next three starts; blinkers were tried here on Tuesday and he ran another good race, albeit no match for the thriving winner; should give another good account. |
7/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Got off the mark in a classified at Ayr in July in a first-time visor (retained until now), finishing in the frame on all four starts since; first-time blinkers now take over and holds claims if new headgear can eke out further improvement. |

Looked in excellent nick when winning twice here in the autumn (7f/1m) but has not been at the same level on his two appearances this month (both 1m) and still needs to prove he can cope with a mark this high. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

1m win here on stable debut in March and he's followed that with five good runs in defeat, most recently a near miss over C&D three weeks ago; closely matched with the winner Ring Of Gold; should make another bold bid. |

19th Feb 2026 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Three Newcastle wins for Richard Spencer over the winter, latterly off 5lb lower, and remained competitive before changing hands for 5,000gns; usual tongue-tie/blinkers absent for his new yard latest (same again here), when well below par on turf. |
