2nd 3 (6) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 2f 2y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; seconds were becoming a habit before the cheekpieces went on and he won at Southwell (1m6f, AW), Ripon (2m, good) and Pontefract (2m1f, good to soft) on last three outings; latest (after five days off) saw him assert by about 4l in the final 1f and the four-timer may well be beckoning despite 5lb rise. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and then cheekpieces, getting off the mark at Southwell (1m6f) last month and following up at Ripon on Sunday (2m, good); escapes a penalty for that win and today's further rise in distance could spark additional progress; possible he could do with the ground drying out a bit but he's on the up and should make a bold bid to complete his hat-trick. |
2/1 |

1st 3 (1) |
17th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Runner-up in four of his first five handicaps before finally cracking it in a four-runner race at Southwell (1m6f, AW) in April; that was in first-time cheekpieces (retained) but by just a nose, leading on the post; stays 2m and he's a player if transferring this year's improvement back to turf. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Four-time winner (all 1m4f on a sound surface) with three of those in blinkers, latterly at Catterick (good; made all) on his penultimate start; overdid it in the lead before beating one home at Goodwood 12 days ago but could bounce back; cheekpieces (second on all three attempts) are reapplied. |
8/1 |

6th 1 (4) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Progress 4yo; won at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) in April and added to that success at Catterick (1m4f, good) 29 days ago, making all under Poppy Scott; can't be dismissed off this 2lb higher mark. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Switched to front-running this year, including with Tapeta wins over 1m4f here in March and 2m at Southwell in April when last seen; that's career-best AW form but this race is a much higher grade and should be much harder to boss. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ex-Irish; eight-race maiden; hasn't run to his best on the AW for Phil Kirby, but may fare better back on turf. |
25/1 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Seven-race maiden who finished runner-up in two of his six starts on turf in Ireland last summer (both over this trip), but failed to beat a rival on stable debut/reappearance at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) last month; something to prove. |
13/2 |
|
10th 6 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Second at Killarney (1m6f) last summer in two of three Irish handicaps for John Joseph Murphy, trying cheekpieces when short-headed on latest outing (good); off 210 days but this lightly raced AW newcomer needs a second look. |
