Versatile ground-wise; regained the winning thread at Sandown (7f) two weeks ago, which sets him up nicely for another crack at this race (third off 1lb higher last year); in the mix. |

Both wins here and he appreciated getting some cover (travelled well) before leading 1f out for a narrow success over 1m here a month ago (good); 4lb higher in a race likely to take more winning but hard to rule out.

Shaped well on reappearance (found trouble) and bang there in his subsequent races, over 1m at Newmarket and C&D 13 days ago (first-time cheekpieces); hard to offer any excuses on either occasion and, now 3-31, he's looking a hard horse to catch right.

16th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Three wins all came here but pays for his consistency and remains 3lb above his last successful mark; is entitled to have come on for his recent belated comeback/debut for this yard 16 days ago, though, when things didn't fall his way round Goodwood. |

Runner-up in his first four races and again wasn't far away when fourth at Kempton (7f novice, AW), though that was his fourth successive defeat at odds-on; not progressing and, on recent evidence, this mark is no gift.

28th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 4yo whose consistent form figures (2222) don't tell the whole story as he's suffered odds-on defeats the last three times, latest at Southwell (7f) on belated seasonal debut; has the ability to win a race of this nature but is a frustrating sort who hasn't progressed as expected. |

Thew away all hope of winning at Epsom on Oaks day by hanging and has since finished out the back in 7f handicaps at Royal Ascot and Newmarket (both in a new tongue-tie); won't mind returning to a slower surface and, although hit and miss, he's handicapped to run a big race.

9st 7lb |
Hit and miss overall; seemed to throw away a winning chance at Epsom (hung badly left) on Oaks day and finished last in his group when fitted with a tongue-strap at Royal Ascot three weeks later; carries obvious risks, although he is 1-1 on this course and he's back down to his last winning mark. |

20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Infrequent winner since 2yo success but he wasn't beaten far in the 1m Britannia here in 2022 and he would have have finished closer in his most recent 7f run, behind Carrytheone at Newmarket (good), had he not been hampered; has more to do here but fitting a tongue-tie could help. |

Not the easiest to predict and has only won a Newbury novice from ten starts; however, went mighty close off just 2lb lower at Haydock on his penultimate run so he's not one to put a line through; likes to lead and had no freedom at York last time.

Has dipped in and out of Listed races and handicaps over 1m since winning a Newbury novice last June and the return to 7f seemed to suit when losing out only late on to Sunfall at Haydock (good; made most) last time; back up 2lb but not dismissed. |

Back-to-back wins in minor races last season but handicaps are providing a tougher challenge; beaten under 4l in a Racing League event last time and that was after an absence (gelded), but whether he'll build on that remains to be seen.
