Both wins have come over C&D but latest was in January 2025; finished third over 7f here in March but he's struggled in both subsequent runs and others are preferred. |

Both wins on Lingfield AW but runner-up twice from six starts here; having run so poorly back on turf last time is the big stumbling block. |

Dual winner here on the AW over 1m; bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when third of nine here on the AW over 7f last time but he could do without the rain on this switch back to turf (well beaten in three starts on soft). |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
5-21 on AW compared to 0-10 on turf and he's been well beaten in his two races here; turf mark is 12lb below AW figure and he should have come on since his recent, creditable reappearance, but others are more persuasive. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Ran well over C&D last October and he was well backed when winning over 7f back here five days later; below his best at Chelmsford one day later; history doesn't suggest coming back from a break is the time to catch him. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Started 2025 with a bang, winning four handicaps (7f-8.6f) between January and March; mixed bag this summer but he returned to form with a clear second at Kempton (1m) last Friday and went one better there (7f) yesterday; this dual course winner would have be respected if running again today. |

Best form has come here including all three wins (7f/1m); just 2lb above his last winning mark, but his record in Class 5 handicaps or higher reads 5864097 so he may again find a few too strong. |

Has shown some promise on turf and he won at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in January; however, he's finished down the field there the last twice and needs to get back on track now reverting to grass. |

Off the mark over 8.6f here in January and placed in both goes over C&D in the meantime; the switch to blinkers didn't have a positive effect last time but the return of a visor looks a positive; high on list. |

30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
It was a narrow verdict over 8.6f here four weeks ago and he went up only 3lb; with that run under his belt and being a triple C&D winner, he should feature again if able to overcome a wider than ideal draw. |

Won three times over 9.4f here last year and ended that year with a keeping-on second over that trip; returns from two-month break on fairly tough mark, though, and this drop back to 8.6f is not ideal. |

9st 2lb |
Won when cheekpieces were first fitted and again when they were reapplied early in the year, so it's a plus point that they are back on today; not shown much since leaving Ian Williams but soft ground was no good to him last time and he'll be happier back on the AW. |
16/1 |

8th 9 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Generally consistent in his time with Ian Williams when he scored three times on AW from 1m to 1m2f; second start for this yard wasn't devoid of promise at Kempton (1m4f) 17 days ago but suitability for the combination of this trip and likely ground is yet to be determined. |
12/1 |
Verdict
Being still unexposed over 1m, MARINAKIS (nap) could well defy a 5lb penalty and complete a quickfire double. Kitaro Kich, whose turn may be near, is second choice ahead of Raqraaq and Rabinal.[Steve Boow]
