Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5th 6 (9) | 1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 | 9st 5lb | Continues to edge down the weights, but losing run is up to 19 and the application of a tongue-tie made little difference last time; something to prove on his first attempt over this far. | 18/1 |
| 4th 3 (6) | 29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 | 9st 5lb | Ran just four times last season and was runner-up on three occasions (7f/1m, various ground); down the field on reappearance at Kempton (1m, AW) four weeks ago but may have needed that outing and it will be no surprise if he's in the mix; a tongue-tie is added. | 9/1 |
| 8th 1 (4) | 1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 | 9st 9lb | He finished second in three of his four starts in 2025, including on his seasonal return, but was still operating at a level below his old form; drops into 0-70 for the first time; not discounted. | 14/1 |
| 2nd 5 (5) | 11th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 | 9st 5lb | Ran well both starts here (6f and 7f on good to firm); came back from an absence to finish second in two of three starts this summer, including at Salisbury (1m) in June and at Chepstow (7f) three weeks ago; has won on good to soft. | 9/1 |
| 2nd 2 (2) | 19th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 5 | 9st 12lb | Slightly disappointing when only fourth of six at Sandown (1m, good) last month but ran well in defeat on seasonal debut at Salisbury (1m, good to firm) in June and remains on a good mark; should cope with today's drop back in trip; contender if back on song. | 6/1 |
