jockey stated his instructions were to ride gelding with cover while keeping a good hold of his head as he can be thick winded; he felt that asking for an effort to chase down the winner - going against the instructions given - would be unnecessary taking into account that he felt a too fast gallop had been set under a relatively inexperienced rider; he further added he felt gallop set was unsustainable over 3m 1/2f and was of the opinion that winner was going to weaken quickly in home straight)(op 16/1) 2024-11-26 Southwell 2m4½f Good Cla PU/10 13/2 — 92 — Nick Scholfield Always behind - pushed along briefly after 2nd - not fluent 5th - pulled up 3 out(op 8/1 and tchd 17/2) 2024-10-15 Market Rasen 2m3f Good Cla 5/8 13/2 19.00L 97 83 Nick Scholfield In touch with leaders - not fluent 7th - outpaced and lost ground after 4 out - weakened from 3 out(op 7/1) 2024-10-01 Sedgefield 2m5f Good To S Cla 4/7 5/1 0.20L 102 85 Nick Scholfield Held up in rear - headway and in touch with leaders 6th - outpaced before 11th - no chance from 3 out - went remote fourth run-in(op 6/1 and tchd 13/2) 2024-08-24 Cartmel 2m1f Soft Cla 8/12 33/1 0.50L 108 90 Nick Scholfield Prominent behind clear leaders - pressed leaders 2 out - weakened after last(tchd 40/1) 2024-07-26 Uttoxeter 2m4f Good Cla 14/15 25/1 7.50L 111 58 Nick Scholfield Pressed leaders - disputed lead after 2nd - lost position and prominent with one circuit to go - lost position 3 out - soon dropped to rear - tailed off(op 22/1 tchd 28/1) 2024-06-04 Southwell 2m4½f Good To S Cla 5/6 16/1 13.00L 113 88 Peter Kavanagh Prominent - briefly led 3rd - led again after 3 out - headed 2 out - soon weakened - tailed off(tchd 18/1) 2023-11-18 Wetherby 2m3½f Heavy Cla 7/10 6/1 0.50L 114 98 Sean Quinlan Midfield on outer - no impression after 3 out - weakened after 2 out(tchd 13/2) 2023-10-22 Sedgefield 2m4f Soft Cla 2/10 11/2 1.25L 113 112 Sean Quinlan Towards rear but in touch with leaders - headway after omitted 3 out - went second approaching last - mistake last - kept on well run-in(op 13/2 tchd 7/1) 2023-09-06 Hexham 2m4f Good Cla 7/11 5/1F 7.50L 114 97 Tom Midgley Prominent - went second before 3rd - weakened before last(op 11/2 tchd 6/1) 2023-08-19 Market Rasen 2m7f Good Cla 3/5 4/1 1.50L 114 111 Tom Midgley Prominent - ridden omitted 2 out - kept on but not pace to challenge(tchd 7/2) 2023-06-16 Aintree 2m4f Good Cla 2/8 15/8J 1.00L 109 112 Conor Rabbitt Towards rear of midfield - headway after 4 out - disputed lead 3 out - ridden when awkward jump 2 out - headed run-in - kept on(op 2/1) 2023-06-08 Uttoxeter 2m4f Good Cla 1/6 13/2 won 102 112 Sean Quinlan In touch with leaders - not fluent 3rd - prominent before 6th - led before 3 out - ridden and went clear 2 out - went further clear after last - comfortably(op 5/1) 2023-05-20 Bangor-on-Dee 2m½f Good Cla 3/6 7/1 8.50L 104 100 Ross Chapman Disputing second - lost second and pushed along when mistake 2 out - outpaced approaching last(op 11/2 tchd 9/2 and tchd 15/2) 2022-12-26 Market Rasen 2m2½f Good To S Cla 9/13 13/2 9.00L 106 79 Thomas Willmott Midfield on inner - nudged along after 4th - ridden and struggling after 3 out - soon beaten (trainer could offer no explanation for the poor form shown)(op 7/1) 2022-12-09 Doncaster 2m½f Good Cla 2/8 13/8F 1.25L 105 107 Thomas Willmott Prominent in chasing group - mistake 4th - pushed along after 4 out - not fluent 3 out - headway and every chance approaching last - mistake last - switched left run-in - rallied towards finish - no match for winner(op 7/4 tchd 15/8) 2022-11-16 Hexham 2m Soft Cla 2/9 14/1 1.50L 102 109 Thomas Willmott Midfield - steady headway after 2 out - ridden home turn - ran on well approaching last - kept on but no impression run-in(op 16/1 tchd 18/1) 2022-10-28 Wetherby 2m Good To S Cla 6/11 33/1 2.00L — 94 Thomas Willmott Midfield on outer - headway when not fluent 5th - outpaced and lost position before 3 out - beaten from 2 out(op 50/1) Comment Towards rear - not fluent 3 out - headway when not fluent 2 out - kept on and went second inside final 110yds - no match for winner(op 4/1) Finishing result Position 2 SP 100/30 (4.330) Beaten (L) 5.00 Total beaten 5.00 OR after 93 In-running comment Towards rear - not fluent 3 out - headway when not fluent 2 out - kept on and went second inside final 110yds - no match for winner(op 4/1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 10.

Narrative: Competitive 0-110 hurdle headed on adjusted ratings by Crystal Glance (RPR 114, top horse Elo 1626, off the hot Greenall/Guerriero yard at 25% strike) and The Secret Pearl (RPR 113, recent wind surgery, decent rider). Orange Diamond is the most reliable form pick — fit at 30 days and consistent 42132- last term — while Back In The Bay returns from 218 days off having won 2 of his last 4. Rock Hurley's RPR 119 is a stale peak (form /8004-). Sauce Of Life (11yo, RPR 95) and Copper Beach (OFR 93 in 100+ company) look outclassed. Recommended: Crystal Glance Top RPR (114) and top horse Elo (1626) in the field, runs off a 4lb-lower OFR than his peak rating suggests, and reappears for an in-form 25% stable. The 180-day layoff is the only blot; pulls cheekpieces fresh is the trainer's intent signal. Alternative: Orange Diamond Most reliable recent form 42132-, fit at 30 days and seven months on from wind surgery. Off a workable OFR 103 with RPR 111 says he's well treated. ============================================================================== Generated 2026-05-30 18:11 UTC · HorseRacingValue.com · race rac_11942905
