7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins have been gained at Wolverhampton and latest was in a Class 5 over C&D in March; no impact on turf this summer but he's now 3lb lower than for his last success and needs a close look back on Tapeta. |
10/1 |

3rd 3 (3) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two AW wins to his name but his turf form isn't quite of the same standard; modest fourth over C&D last week and he is due to be 2lb lower from the weekend. |
16/1 |

4th 5 (1) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Dual AW winner but he's yet to score on turf and his fair effort at Windsor (1m) in June was sandwiched by two moderate ones at 1m2f; return to this trip is a positive and there's nothing wrong with his mark but others hold more pressing claims. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
0-10 but he's finished runner-up in his last two starts including a close call behind Sax Avoidance over C&D last month; 1lb better off in this rematch and he should make another bold bid. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Nine-race maiden but he's been placed in three handicaps including when runner-up at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in June; only 1lb higher after a short break and he could go well again back on AW. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February in his second handicap; backward steps in his three starts since, admittedly clipping heels early on latest (Madjid's race at Doncaster; 11-2) but doubts are creeping in. |
16/1 |

8th 6 (7) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Two turf starts last year; made the breakthrough in his second handicap when scoring at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in February; yet to build on that, however, and others arguably have more scope for improvement on this switch back to grass. |
6/1 |
|
5th 3 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for the step up to 9.4f when winning at Wolverhampton last month, his second handicap; only fourth behind two of tonight's rivals at Wolverhampton 16 days ago; needs to raise his game but that is possible. |

19th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
AW winner over 8.6f for Ed Bethell, his only success in eight starts; didn't exactly sign off for that yard in great form and was sold on for 1,500gns. |
7/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven starts on the AW including a narrow success at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in January, but has not matched that form in two outings in headgear since; enough to prove on turf debut. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
First run beyond sprint trips when winning an ordinary, small-field Wolverhampton handicap (8.6f) in January; met traffic upped to 9.5f latest (first-time cheekpieces; switches to a visor here) and can't be ruled out under experienced 5lb claimer Ashley Lewis. |
