★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 1 27 Aug Southwell (AW)

    Set the pace from the start - clear throughout - won without being pressed

  • Pos 4 5 Aug Yarmouth

    Tracked the front group early - urged forward with two furlongs left - driven but faded inside the final furlong - finished fourth

  • Pos 3 21 Jul Salisbury

    Travelled in the pack early - pressed for a response two furlongs out - made headway to move into third approaching the final furlong - kept on through the final furlong but unable to get to the front-running pair

  • Pos 8 7 May Southwell (AW)

    Sat mid-pack on the wide side - pushed along with 2f remaining - always held - finished well behind in 8th
