Won a C&D handicap on his reappearance in April; not so good in either run since but he drops back down in class today and a short break won't have done him any harm (good record fresh). |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won at Newcastle (6f, AW) last December and he's been placed there in three of his last four runs including when runner-up over 5f last week; on same mark here but his best efforts have been on Tapeta and he's been well held in last four turf runs; some risks attached. |
6/1 |

2nd 4 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Winner over 6f here in December; best runs since have been here, including neck second to Houndhill over C&D in May; a possible. |
13/2 |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won a 6f nursery course nursery in December and also a close second over C&D last month (first run since being gelded); not so good on turf since but better can be expected back on AW. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark dropped to 5f at Newcastle in June; not so good in three runs since and the handicapper isn't relenting just yet. |
16/1 |
|
12th 13 (1) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Made all when winning a small-field 5f course handicap off 3lb lower in early summer; better effort when just behind Believeinmenow back here last time and holds each-way claims for a trainer who also saddles Sea Her Excel. |
10/1 |

9st 4lb |
Won a six-runner C&D handicap early last month on only run at 5f; well beaten stepped back up to 6f on turf next time; could go well. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Matched his previous best efforts when getting off the mark at Carlisle (6f, good) in May but he's not kicked on and was beaten 11l in a selling handicap at 50-1 last Monday; additional stamina query and others are much safer. |
16/1 |
|
10th 11 (1) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Off the mark at Carlisle (6f, good) in May off 1lb higher but has been below that form in four runs since; would hold claims if back to his best. |
20/1 |
|
10th 14 (2) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 6 |

Has slipped back into modest mode since winning over 6f at Carlisle in May and has stamina to prove over this far. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Dual AW winner who is 0-9 on turf but he came from rear to finish a close third over C&D (good) last month; didn't get the best of runs in that race and he's a big player if he can back that up. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Gained a second success at Newcastle (5f) in July; not so good on turf but he posted a respectable fourth of seven in 6f handicap here last month; no forlorn hope off a 2lb lower mark now. |
14/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Made it 2-5 on AW when beating Brave Traveller at Newcastle (5f) last Friday; 2lb lower back on turf but he's 0-7 in this sphere and has form figures of 68008 on grass this season; not hard to have reservations. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won here (1m, good to soft) last month and kept on well for close second at Carlisle nine days later (1m, good to soft; unraced on softer); this lightly raced 3yo is open to further improvement now tackling 1m2f. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 3 (11) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Placed in his first two handicaps and he made no mistake back from a break at Ayr (1m, good to soft) nine days ago; the forecast rain won't hurt his chance and he still has time on his side; one to be interested in under a penalty. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Twice a 6f winner on good ground this season, his best effort coming when landing a Thirsk selling handicap last month; went up 1lb for that but was well beaten at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) latest; would be competitive if bouncing back. |
20/1 |
|
6th 7 (4) |
2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has patchy profile but he's won two of his last four starts including when making all at Thirsk (6f, good) 18 days ago; that was in a tight four-way finish but he's only 1lb higher back on AW and is still unexposed in this sphere; shortlisted. |
4/1 |

1st 4 (7) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Off the mark when making all at Ripon (6f, good) in July off 2lb lower; dangerous if allowed an uncontested lead. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
0-9 but produced one of his better efforts when runner-up at Catterick (7f, good to soft) last Tuesday; has claims if able to reproduce that effort with first-time visor fitted. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Best efforts have come on Tapeta and he hasn't convinced in a couple of runs at beyond 6f; proven regressive since handicapping this season, again running below market expectations last time. |
14/1 |
|
7th 5 (8) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Placed in one of his seven outings and finished midfield over this C&D in June; disappointed in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) at Ayr (7f, soft) in June and now returns to 6f having been dropped another 3lb. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 177y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
All five starts on good/good to firm; made it 2-2 with 7f Listed win at Newmarket in May and has shaped in 7f/1m Group 3 races on his last two starts (including here) as though this new trip could be a good fit; not discounted in first-time tongue-tie; the blinkers adopted last time are left off. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Ran below expectations when a warm order for the Jersey at Royal Ascot (2-2 previously) but bounced back with a creditable effort against his elders in 7f Group 3 at York a week later, while leaving the impression he'll be suited by this step up to 1m combined with first-time headgear; remains of interest, with further progress still plausible. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Ran below expectations when a warm order for the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot last Saturday but was drawn a bit higher than ideal, the way the race panned out, and finishing sixth of 16 wasn't a total disaster; 2-2 previously, including 7f Listed win at Newmarket, and can be treated as retaining potential; respected in receipt of 9lb from his elders. |

25th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Has form figures of 23131 and he made it 2-2 at Wolverhampton when landing a 7f handicap there last month; 6lb higher on this step up in grade but this 3yo is bred to be useful and he's open to more progress back on turf; respected. |

1st 9 (8) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Shaped with a deal of promise on his first run at beyond sprint trips/handicap debut at Southwell three weeks ago, when not helped by the way the race panned out; will have learned more again from that and should go well. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 10 (1) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Short prices for three sprint novices/maidens thus far, getting off the mark when coming away with a subsequent winner last month; unexposed as he enters handicap company and remains open to improvement. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
56-rated on the Flat; created a good impression winning over C&D (good; 5-4) on hurdles debut in June, but found one stronger when beaten at odds-on at Uttoxeter next time; his escapades at Cartmel last time (ran out) raise a few concerns. |
9/2 |
|
1 |
31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Beat a previous winner when scoring on hurdle debut at Market Rasen in June and was not discredited when odds-on second under penalty at Uttoxeter (also 2m, good; third won comfortably on Friday) last month; untested on ground slower than good; leading contender. |
11/10 |

11st 7lb |
After a gelding operation he won two 1m2f handicaps and comfortably accounted for three rivals on his hurdling debut; suffered early interference when only fifth in his latest Flat run; in good nick but the penalty asks something of him. |
