28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Listed win in Germany in October 2024 and went close at Sandown and Newbury last term; however, after a disappointing October he made it 0-10 for the season and this is a tough race in which to try to break his British duck. |
50/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Smart on the continent, including on testing ground; 0-9 for Jamie Osborne but he has run some good races, including a near miss over C&D last month; not so good at Ascot since but returning to Class 3 will be in his favour. |
12/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Smart on the continent; some notable form in eight defeats for this yard, last time going down narrowly in a Class 3 at Newbury (7f, good to soft; second-time cheekpieces); however, he was behind four of these here the time before. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Well suited by slow ground; attractively handicapped and his last two runs have both been promising, meeting trouble before finishing off strongly at Newcastle last month; high on the list. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
1lb lower than for his Doncaster win 12 months ago (7f, soft); several creditable runs in handicaps this season but he will need to pull out a bit more if he's to come out on top. |
12/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Not troubled the judge this season but hasn't been running badly, last time behind Native Warrior on the AW in late June; a triple winner on ground softer than good so connections have no doubt been waiting for some rain; worth considering. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on final two runs last year (1m, AW) and same story on his three outings this spring (6f, AW/good/good to firm); arrives with something to prove but he's 5lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (soft) last October and the return to slow ground could facilitate a major revival. |

7th 8 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Patchy overall record; didn't enjoy the smoothest of passages at Newbury two weeks ago but he was beaten over 5l at the finish; others are stronger. |
25/1 |

8th 3 (7) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Heavy defeats on his last three starts, including his Kempton reappearance three weeks ago; he's on a fair mark on the pick of his efforts though and this track does seem to suit him well; Tom Marquand is a notable booking for the stable (his nine rides for Stan Moore have yielded two wins, a second, three thirds and two fourths); lively outsider. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
0-8 this season but he's been bubbling under, and he'd have gone close to winning at Haydock (7f, good) last Saturday but for being badly hampered inside the final 1f; dangerous if he's fully recovered from that. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |

Mixed form this season but last two efforts creditable and the way his challenge petered out late on over 1m at Ascot a fortnight ago suggests this return to 7f could prove ideal. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Back on last winning mark but is by no means certain to take advantage, having finished last of nine at Doncaster on seasonal debut; admittedly may fare better with that outing under his belt. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |

Won over 6f at Haydock in May 2025 (good) and a couple of fair runs over 7f after that; acts on fast ground but he lacks a recent run (has been off since October). |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
0-9 on the AW, but has gone very close on Tapeta on three occasions; 2lb lower than when beaten a head in a 0-110 contest over C&D in August and if able to reproduce that sort of form he would have a good chance. |
7/1 |

6 (4) |
24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended his lengthy losing run when winning a 7f handicap at Haydock in July; similar form on a couple of occasions since and he ran creditably in a hot 6f handicap at York two weeks ago; one to consider back down into Class 3 company. |
9/1 |
|
17 (11) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Not the force of old (won the Group 2 Temple Stakes in 2022) but he ended a long losing run at Haydock (7f, good) in July and went down only narrowly at Newcastle in August; however, he should have fared better at Ascot last time and he's been unplaced on both his previous outings at York. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
1-12 on the Flat for the Cole stable, the win gained on Polytrack (1m, RPR 79) in December; absent since running as though something was amiss in May and has stamina to prove on stable/hurdle debut but at least we know he has significant ability; the market may guide. |
8/1 |
|
11th 3 (3) |
23rd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Got off the mark in a Chelmsford novice (1m, AW) in December; has excuses for his last two defeats as he pulled too hard at Newcastle in February and missed the break at Kempton last time; tongue-tie returns to combine with blinkers and not out of this if things pan out for him. |
7/1 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Front-runner who won a novice and was beaten a head in a handicap in two starts at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) around New Year; not so good at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) last time but of interest back on Polytrack with blinkers reapplied. |

10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win in a Beverley maiden over two years ago but he only just failed to gain a first handicap win when touched off by Justcallmepete over C&D (good to firm) in May; some way below that level in Diligently's race here the following month, though, and others are higher up the list. |

10th 3 (11) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Still seeking a first handicap success but he has gone close in two of his three runs for Robert Cowell, beaten a short head over C&D three weeks ago (good to firm); slower ground would be no issue but he will need a bit more to defy this 2lb higher mark. |

Lost chance by blowing the start last time; prevailed narrowly off 1lb lower in Class 4 event over C&D (soft) in June but needs to prove he has the required quality at this better level. |
33/1 |

7th 3 (8) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent but he won at Goodwood (7f, soft) in June and wasn't beaten far when seventh of 17 at York (7f, good to firm) last time; his career-best performance came when winning easily over C&D (good) last June and he's an intriguing candidate back here; capable of playing a leading role. |
9/1 |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

In fine form last spring, winning three times including over C&D; cheekpieces returned at Goodwood last month and he recorded a narrow soft-ground success; 2lb rise shouldn't handicap him out of things and faster ground should be beneficial. |

Gina Mangan picked up a 12-day ban when this 4yo was given a lot to do at Ffos Las and he then won by a length under Oisin Murphy here over 1m; has never raced beyond that trip but gives the impression he'll stay this far; up in class off a 5lb higher mark. |

Novice winner for previous yard; 0-6 for current stable but ran encouragingly, despite being left with plenty to do, in last two starts; caught the attention of the stewards at Ffos Las (1m) latest; interesting with Oisin Murphy up for first time, assuming the cards drop right. |

Added to two British 7f wins when bagging the Habitat Handicap (6f, good) here in May on second start for new yard; another solid display over 7f at Cork next time; never got involved after slipping coming out of the gates in the Scurry Handicap last time (6.5f, good to firm); firmly in the mix but not certain to appreciate this first try at the minimum trip. |
