1st 3 (3) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Seven of his 13 wins have come at Windsor and latest was over 5f (good) last month; finished well to snatch third at Bath (5.7f) and Sandown (5f) in his last two runs and he's strongly respected back up in trip. |
9/2 |

Loves Windsor where he beat Kiss And Run before finishing third at Bath; has won here but usually runs in Class 5s. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Infrequent winner these days but always prominent when holding on at Chepstow (6f, good) four days ago; this looks tougher under a 4lb penalty (Alexandra Egan rides again). |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (7) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win in the last five years but it came over C&D; back to form when second to Too Much Trevor over C&D nine days ago, doing comfortably best of the stands' side group, and 2lb better off today; good chance of turning the tables. |

2nd 13 (8) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 8 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In the frame in four of his last six starts and drops to this level for the first time, but a record of 0-25 raises doubts even in this company; visor given a go this time. |
5/1 |
|
4th 4 (9) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well treated on plenty of form but has been unable to take advantage of a steadily declining mark for current connections and latest defeat took his record to 0-24. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Below par at Sandown this month but a return to his May form, namely an AW success flanked by second-place finishes on turf, would put him in the picture. |
15/2 |
|
9th 5 (3) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Back in good form off his reduced mark, winning easily at Southwell (5f) before nearly defying a penalty at Chepstow (good to firm; effective on softer); 3lb higher for this but well drawn and must have a shout for all that he's back up in grade; Seamus Cronin aboard for last three races. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has dropped a fair way down the weights over the last year or so, but looked back in prime form when scooting clear to win readily by 4l at Southwell (5f, AW) last week; also suited by good to firm turf and is 4lb ahead of the handicapper under his 5lb penalty. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Got up late to win Bath novice (5f, good to firm) for Andrew Balding in June; 0-9 for this yard (majority 6f, turf/AW) and first-time cheekpieces (removed) didn't spark an improved effort last time; career-low mark and second go at this trip (first is easily excused) the straws to clutch at. |
16/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Should be well handicapped now but he hasn't built on a good fourth at Newcastle in December in three subsequent runs; connections reach for cheekpieces tonight. |
9/1 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Dips into a 0-70 for the first time but hasn't obviously been shaping as if likely to be cashing in on his reduced mark. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins in 2025, including C&D, but rather going through the motions this time around; showed a bit more spark with his front-running sixth at Kempton in May; on a manageable mark and the type to come good again soon. |
12/1 |

6th 7 (1) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four wins in a purple patch in the second half of 2025; now 5lb lower than for his last success but he's struggled at big prices in five runs this year and needs to turn things around; one of two runners for the yard. |
25/1 |

17th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran with 14 wins on his CV; kept on for third when dropped back to 5f at Newcastle 12 days ago but is inconsistent nowadays and younger rivals appeal more. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Veteran who never featured in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton nine days ago; drops back to 5f with a point to prove. |
20/1 |
|
8th 6 (1) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Slow-starting veteran who is having his 100th outing this evening; he has won 14 times already and his latest Newcastle fourth was a solid effort; should go well again. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Continues to edge down the weights, but 0-16 in handicaps and stamina for this far remains a major concern; finished behind two of these over C&D a fortnight ago; stable also runs Vecchio. |
14/1 |
|
11th 1 (10) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had beaten only one rival home in his first four starts for this stable but he's posted two solid efforts since wearing the hood on its own; down another 2lb and he's an each-way contender. |
8/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Had beaten only one rival home in his first four starts for this stable but he took a step back in the right direction when third at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) six days ago when wearing the hood on its own (same today); chance. |
