31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Progressive; unlucky second in the 2025 Cambridgeshire and fared best of the far-side runners in this year's Royal Hunt Cup; justified favouritism in the Coral Challenge at Sandown (1m, good to firm) and is 2lb well in under a small penalty for that deserved change of luck; respected. |

1st 7 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Threatening to win a good prize; unlucky second in last year's Cambridgeshire and finished third, best of the far-side runners, in the Royal Hunt Cup most recently; 1-1 at Sandown; big chance provided the cards drop right. |
7/2 |

3rd 27 (8) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Unraced on softer than good; record is 4-11 (AW/turf); good second in the 2025 Cambridgeshire (would likely have won but for traffic issues) and Newbury event (collared by Classic) in last two appearances; progressive, represents last year's winning yard and has a big prize in him; respected. |

26th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
0-11; lots of fair form, including at this venue, but her willingness to come home in front is questionable; hood removed for the first time since her debut. |

led, ridden when faced challenges over 1f out, lost two places inside final furlong, kept on |

20th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Well-bred filly who is now 0-9 and looking exposed, but was runner-up in her only previous handicap and she beat all bar an unexposed favourite in a 1m novice last time; can be keen out in front and perhaps this belated return to 7f will work. |

0-9 but runner-up in four of his last five starts (three over C&D), going down by less than a length on four occasions; up another 1lb but a major player returned here. |

2nd 1 (1) |
1st May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
String of solid efforts in Tapeta handicaps this year and he doesn't appear to do anything wrong; has been nudged up another 2lb, though, and will need to find a bit more for the switch from cheekpieces to blinkers, and from the AW to turf. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Three 1m2f wins on Newcastle AW towards the end of last year and he returned from a break and wind surgery to finish second over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; he was no match for the winner Jez Bomb but is 7lb better off today and is not ruled out. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
26th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
All three wins were 1m2f on Newcastle AW last October-December; his three races this year suggest that the handicapper has caught up; this is also only his third race on turf, having twice been towards rear last June, so he has a bit to prove on this first run since his second wind surgery. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Her tremendous progress was highlighted by a close sixth in the King Charles III at Royal Ascot (good to firm, probably acts on soft) but her hopes were ended by some interference in C&D Listed race won by Redorange next time; her finding a bit more even now can't be ruled out but this bar is high. |
50/1 |
|
12th 10 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 10lb |
Began her career in handicaps with a BHA mark of 60 and has improved in leaps and bounds since; seemed to excel herself when never-nearer sixth of 26 in Group 1 at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm; 40-1) last month; had run creditably over C&D the time before; big chance if repeating Ascot form. |
