| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6th 4 (15) | 15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 | 8st 11lb | anticipated start and slowly away, raced near side, towards rear, headway from over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, nearest finish, 5th of 10 in group | 5/1 |
| 2nd 1 (6) | 3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 | 10st 0lb | pressed winner, ridden over 1f out, no extra inside final 110yds, just held second | 15/8 |
| 3rd 4 (1) | 7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 | 9st 6lb | Bounced back from some lesser efforts when making all and scoring comfortably from a subsequent winner at Ripon (6f, good) 19 days ago; the visor may have helped and although similar tactics may not be so easy in this field, he doesn't have to lead; much respected from 6lb higher. | 2/1F |
| 1st 4 (7) | 18th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 | 9st 2lb | Won three times last year (5f/6f, good/good to firm/AW), the third when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; disappointing this season, last time unseating his rider at the start in first-time visor which is retained. | 13/2 |
| 4 (12) | 30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 | 9st 7lb | Had a solid 2025, winning three times (5f/6f), but hasn't finished in the first eight this year; dropping in the weights but needs to turn a corner; perhaps a change of headgear will help. | 12/1 |
