Upped his game sent handicapping on AW, scoring twice at Kempton (7f/1m) and finding further improvement when second there in April. Progress has stalled on turf since but no surprise were he to fare a lot better back on AW.
|
C&D winner in April 14/1, creditable fourth of 12 in Racing League handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 28 days ago. Can give a good account.
|
Good start for this yard with a pair of 7f AW wins in the spring. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (14/1) at Yarmouth (7f, good) 35 days ago. Has first-time cheekpieces added to regular tongue tie. Considered under Loughnane.
|
Useful performances when winning twice at this time last year, including a Racing League handicap on tapeta. Operating below that level this year but starting to look dangerously well handicapped if first-time cheekpieces (which are added to his regular tongue tie) help to spark a revival.
|
Quirky sort. Operating below his useful best for new yard this year but his mark has come down as a result and possible refitted cheekpieces could provide the edge that's been missing.
|
Useful effort to make second handicap start a winning one at Pontefract (1m) in July. 5/1, caught too far back to land a serious blow when seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 28 days ago. Likely has bigger performances in him.
|
Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 7/2) 9 days ago. Drawn widest.
|
Fourth 1m turf win of a very productive summer when seeing off 8 rivals in a Racing League event at Windsor a fortnight ago. Placed previous AW start. Further progress can't be discounted. One of 2 solid contenders for London & The South.
|
Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 22/1, respectable fourth of 12 in Racing League handicap at Newcastle (7f) 7 days ago, faring best of those held up.
|
C&D winner in March. Creditable third at Beverley (7.5f) last month but down the field at York last week. Drawn wide. Others are preferred.
|
Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (10/3) at Ayr (7f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Had a bit in hand so should remain competitive after a 3 lb rise.
|
First run since leaving Karl Burke when winning a 10-runner novice at Kempton (1m, 11/1) in a first-time hood 22 days ago. Lacks experience for a race like this now handicapping but it's likely she's capable of better.
|
Fairly useful 7f turf winner in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien but down the field in a pair of 1m handicaps since joining Linda Perratt. Others are much more obvious.
|
Winner of handicaps over 7f at Yarmouth (good to soft) and 8.6f at Wolverhampton (Racing League) in recent weeks but his run of progressive form came to a shuddering halt at Newcastle last week.

Forecasts
Magnum Opus (5/2), Helm Rock (9/2), Oliver Show (11/2), Tropez Power (17/2), Londoner (9/1), Glam Squad (11/1), Great Acclaim (16/1), Pjanoo (16/1), Radiant Beauty (20/1), Enola Grey (25/1), Vultar (28/1), He's A Gentleman (28/1), Bear Force One (28/1), Starliner (66/1)
In a really competitive heat a chance is taken on first-time headgear sparking a return to form for HELM ROCK, who is dangerously well treated on his exploits at this time last year and has the added bonus of Oisin Murphy doing the steering. His London & The South teammate Great Acclaim has got on a roll this summer and heads the many dangers along with fellow 3-y-o Magnum Opus and Team Ireland's Oliver Show.
- Helm Rock9/2
- Great Acclaim16/1
