| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11th 12 (3) | 8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 | 8st 9lb | always behind | 12/1 |
| 5th 6 (6) | 27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 | 9st 0lb | in rear, outpaced over 1f out, rallying when not clear run inside final furlong, switched right final 110yds, not pace to challenge | 5/1 |
| 6th 6 (1) | 20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 | 8st 13lb | took keen hold, in touch with leaders, pulled way into lead over 4f out, ridden and hung left when headed over 1f out, weakened final furlong (jockey said gelding ran too free) | 5/2 |
| 5th 7 (1) | 13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 | 9st 1lb | All three wins have been over 5f on good ground, latest at Musselburgh last August; hasn't been in top form this term, best run when third at Musselburgh in June (5f); bit to prove, including his stamina. | 20/1 |
| 7th 7 (8) | 6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 | 9st 3lb | All three wins at 5f on good ground; not quite nailing it this year and it's up in the air as to whether this is his trip, having been well held in sole previous attempt, over C&D in April 2025. | 14/1 |
