Recent Form Analyst Notes

  • Pos 5 29 Aug 2026 Beverley

    Held up early pulling hard at back - pushed along under a furlong out and made progress - held on for fifth without troubling leaders

  • Pos 8 6 Aug 2026 Southwell (AW)

    Held a midfield berth - pushed along with two furlongs left - unable to land a blow on the front group - finished eighth beaten just under five lengths

  • Pos 9 21 Jul 2026 Wolverhampton (AW)

    hesitant leaving the stalls - held up towards the back throughout

  • Pos 5 8 Jul 2026 Kempton (AW)

    dwelt at the start and took a strong hold early - settled towards the back - pressed for effort passing the final furlong marker and faded soon after
