Recent Form Analyst Notes

  • Pos 1 26 Aug 2026 Newbury

    Sat close behind the front group - made ground into contention approaching 2f out - hit the front inside the final furlong then edged off a straight line - kept finding under pressure to win

  • Pos 4 13 Aug 2026 Windsor

    Held up in the pack - made progress through midfield from over 2f out - unable to match the front three inside the final furlong but stayed on for 4th

  • Pos 3 27 Jun 2026 Lingfield

    Settled off the pace - pushed along in pursuit 2f out - one-paced through final furlong to finish third

  • Pos 4 6 Jun 2026 Musselburgh

    Hampered start and dropped many lengths - settled towards back early over 2f - pushed along to pass tired runners inside final furlong - finished without threatening
