1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer, as when winning for the third time this year in a 6f handicap at Chester in August; has shown promise on Polytrack and he is one to take seriously despite his 4lb penalty. |
3/1 |

1st 8 (1) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Inconsistent across his recent starts and well beaten at Ascot (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago, but prior to that he ran well when fourth of 17 at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); this 3yo has the advantage of stall 1 and is capable of a big run if back on song; unraced on slow ground. |
5/1 |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Only fourth behind Prince Of India at Newmarket last month but he fared second best of the far-side group and it was another solid effort; conditions should suit but perhaps the handicapper has his measure now. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
He has been revived by a switch to AW of late, finishing a close third at Wolverhampton (6f) last month before a dominant win back at that track 22 days ago; up 6lb but still feasibly weighted on his turf best; big player from a handy draw. |
11/2 |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

Dual turf winner who was making his AW debut when a rallying third here recently, beaten only a neck; thereabouts. |

3rd 4 (4) |
14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Looked as good as ever when close third of 16 on seasonal debut at Ripon (6f, good to soft) in April but his form has dipped since and he has questions to answer on this AW debut. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
C&D winner who made all at Ripon (6f, good) in June and he had an excuse after missing the break in the Great St Wilfrid there last time; now drops back in grade and he's a big player if he can get back near best. |
3/1 |

6th 4 (15) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Positives include a C&D record comprising a win and a second and he arrives in top form; whether he is quite well enough treated for a race of this nature remains to be seen though. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Stumbled/unseated in first-time visor (retained since) at Carlisle in May but posted a career-best when winning by 2l over C&D (good) in June, and he was denied a clear run when third of six at Pontefract (6f, good) subsequently; high on the list. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Not an instant success for new stable this season but won easily by 4l off much-reduced mark at Carlisle (5.8f, good) ten days ago and is 4lb ahead of the handicapper under 5lb penalty here; commands respect. |
11/10 |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time visor when fifth of 19 at York (6f, good to firm) last month but failed to build on that performance when favourite at Nottingham three weeks ago and is now 0-7 for David O'Meara. |
9/1 |

5th 2 (8) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Unplaced in six runs for David O'Meara, but he's tumbling down the weights and he showed more at York (6f, good to firm; visored first time) ten days ago; this is a drop in class and something bigger is brewing. |

26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a modest 8.6f seller at Wolverhampton last September; not so good since and he'll need to be at his best to take this; is at least unexposed at the trip. |
10/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Ended his 2025 campaign in sellers, winning once and finishing third twice; well treated on best form but isn't sure to reproduce it and record of 0-8 in handicaps adds doubt. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
His two C&D runs last season yielded a win and a close second (in this race off a 1lb higher mark); best effort this year when third of 13 at Southwell two weeks ago; handles good to soft but untried on slower. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 9 (12) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
2-3 on AW surfaces; he's on a handy mark on last season's best efforts and the signs were more encouraging at Thirsk 15 days ago (7f), as although only midfield he wasn't beaten all that far; others are still preferred. |
20/1 |

7th 4 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Well beaten on final outing last season and same story on reappearance at Epsom on Oaks day (pulled hard); he has something to prove but that latest outing may have got the freshness out of him and he's on a handy mark on last season's best efforts; not written off. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Smart 2yo, including third place in the Coventry Stakes; slow start to 2025 but he has run creditably in deep 3yo handicaps on his last two starts; something bigger could be brewing. |
12/1 |
|
9th 8 (8) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Record of 0-7 since debut win; had Group form last year but isn't particularly solid on 2025 handicap results, for all that the latest seemed encouraging; James Doyle prefers the other Wathnan Racing runner. |
20/1 |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Third in last season's Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot and followed that with fourth in the Superlative Stakes at this meeting; well beaten in three handicap runs this year, the latest behind Hucklesbrook last month, and a further 4lb drop in the weights isn't enough to tempt. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
His three good runs this year have all come at Ascot, winning in May (6f, good) and doing best of those in the stands' side group when sixth behind All Ways Glamorous here two weeks ago (cheekpieces on for the first time; first 5f run since 2024); can get it wrong at the start but he has races in him off this mark. |
7/2 |

6th 4 (13) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Kept on well when winning a 6f handicap (good) here in May; not so good on his next two starts but he ran well for third back here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; drops back to 5f with cheekpieces enlisted; others preferred for the win. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 2 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Sole visit here yielded a win over this trip (good) in May but he hasn't figured in two subsequent starts, including when always behind at Windsor 11 days ago; hopes rest on a return to this course firing him back up. |
