4th May 2024 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Has raced exclusively on AW (mostly Polytrack) and strike-rate is 5-10; respectable fifth of 14 when 20-1 for valuable race at Newcastle on latest start but this is his first run beyond 1m, as well as first on turf, and he probably needs a career best; a bit to prove. |

The winner of five of his eight starts, including both runs at this track last month (7f and 1m); 1lb wrong under his penalty but he's on the upgrade and could have more to come at this trip. |

Eight of his nine wins have come here, including this race off 1lb higher three years ago; losing run up to 13 and has failed to beat a rival in his last two starts, though he endured a wide trip latest; a long time since he raced down at this level so he could go well.

On a long losing run but is suited by Kempton and remains well treated on historical data; posted an encouraging effort (close third) here ten days ago, having attracted support, and can't be dismissed. |

On a losing run but there was promise off much higher marks over the winter; struggling this summer but he's down into a Class 6 and should get a good pace to aim at now returned to AW; risky but not a huge surprise to see him go well. |

Handy sort who has gained three of his four wins here, the latest over this trip in June; runner-up off this mark back here (1m) three weeks later and goes well for Ethan Jones, but likely to need this first start in 168 days and has the outside stall.

Only 1lb higher than for his C&D win in March; some good efforts in defeat on turf this summer and he shouldn't be judged too harshly on latest Chelmsford sixth (well backed); one to consider. |

3rd Dec 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his first handicap success when getting up late in a 5f event at Southwell two weeks ago; the runner-up won next time and a 4lb rise looks fair enough; returning to 6f won't be a problem, fully effective on Polytrack and he's a strong contender. |

18th Nov 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |

In good form until beating only one at Bath (5.5f) in August but slipped at the start there so he's not discounted after a break. |

17th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

Sole win came in a maiden and he's been very expensive to follow in handicaps, getting turned over as favourite the past twice, latterly in first-time blinkers (retained); still has to prove he's as good on turf as on the AW. |

Mainly seen over further these days, but was only beaten a head over C&D in April and is 2lb lower now; also 13lb lower than when last successful so could sneak into the frame if ready to go after 111 days off.

Both wins in Britain have come on the AW and he went down by only a head at Kempton (7f) last time, but he did score on turf in France (for this stable); further probably suits him best, but he stil comes into this in better form than most. |
