Recent Form Analyst Notes

  • Pos 1 19 Jun 2026 Goodwood

    Settled at the back early - moving smoothly into contention over 2f out - sent to the front approaching the final furlong - eased clear before drifting late to win

  • Pos 6 31 May 2026 Thirsk

    Held up at the back - urged into contention 3f out to move up into fourth with a furlong left - lost momentum in the closing stages to finish 6th

  • Pos 5 3 Apr 2026 Lingfield (AW)

    Settled in the pack - pressed to stay close approaching final furlongs - closed on the front group late but weakened close home

  • Pos 3 28 Feb 2026 Lingfield (AW)

    Sat close up early - dropped back before the 2f marker after a brief bump - kept plugging away late but lacked the speed to get involved in the finish
