Chelmsford novice winner (7f, Polytrack) for Tom Clover last November, but only one piece of comparable form in eight starts in handicaps since and has been well held in four starts on turf for this yard; look elsewhere. |

Frustrating sort whose form figures read 424242, close second of four at Newcastle (7f; hood applied) most recently; major player on ratings but hasn't progressed and comes with a degree of risk.

19th Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Did well to peg back a thriving rival over 5f at Ayr four weeks ago (good to firm; untried on slower than good); 2lb rise for that looks fine and a stiffer test at this trip won't hurt either; strong contender. |
4/1 |
1st 3 (4) |
22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Series of good runs for his new yard and this mark in range judged on his AW efforts this year; only fifth on his return to turf at Hamilton three weeks ago but that was a good race and he ran another solid race after ten weeks off; Tommie Jakes knows him well; contender. |
100/30 |

2nd Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Consistent performer on AW; solid second at Newcastle when last seen ten weeks ago; withdrawn (refused to enter the stalls) at Epsom since; has a question to answer on turf. |

Showed ability in AW races at Lingfield (fifth over 7f) and Southwell (third over 1m) last winter; likely player provided she returns from ten-month absence in similar form; heed the market signals.

20th Mar 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Disappointing favourite here (1m) last month when bidding for a four-timer; progressive filly otherwise and could well bounce back; her most recent win came over 7f; not written off. |

27th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Improving filly who is 3-4 in handicaps, needing every yard of the trip dropped back to 7f at Wolverhampton most recently; remains well treated following another small rise in the weights and commands respect with the return to 1m looking ideal; her first win came over C&D. |

Pulled too hard when tailed off on his debut (6f, good); slightly more amenable when fourth of 11 at Chelmsford four weeks ago (7f) and leaves the impression there's a bigger run in him; Rossa Ryan booked and could take another step forward. |

9st 1lb |
Sole win was in a 1m novice at Newcastle (Tapeta) last November; handicap form never came to much for Mick Appleby and she's not made an impact in three runs for current yard; mark continues to fall but she's now 1-10 and has stamina to prove at this new trip. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Unexposed 4yo but she's been slowly away in all four runs and has not finished closer than 9l to a winner; cheekpieces are now added and she needs a transformation back in trip. |
25/1 |
9th 5 (7) |
9th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Slowly away all three starts, best form when 50-1 seventh of 11 at Chelmsford (7f novice) on second outing; even allowing for this classified being a much more realistic option, she still requires plenty more. |
12/1 |
8th 9 (11) |

Very lightly raced 6yo but her form has been regressive and she's finished tailed off in both handicaps (1m/1m2f) this year; with another new yard now and has lots to prove back from 137 days off; cheekpieces worn last time are removed. |

Doesn't look the easiest ride but he could still be learning; went down by a nose over C&D in January and again found one too good when he wore first-time cheekpieces (retained) under Hollie Doyle at Lingfield 13 days ago; should be involved. |
11/2 |
2nd 10 (10) |
8th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Only had the six races and gave it a good go from the front at Kempton (7f); now 3lb higher and has a tricky draw to contend with if he's intending to lead; tries cheekpieces. |
8/1 |
2nd 6 (6) |
22nd Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Five-race maiden; not beaten entirely by 1m trip at Southwell most recently; ran encouragingly over 7f at Chelmsford earlier in December and that promise gives cause for optimism. |

8th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Easy to back at 16-1 when fifth of the seven runners on her C&D handicap debut; that was on soft ground and she's unraced on this surface (her useful dam relished the mud). |

5th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

7th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Has an official mark of 17 after finishing a long last in three starts over 5f/7f on the AW; impossible to recommend on handicap debut. |
