13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Can front-run; sole win from 16 starts came in a maiden at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in September but he did step forward from his return when fourth in first-time cheekpieces over C&D 22 days ago; headgear is retained. |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win from 15 starts came in a maiden at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in September but he's mostly struggled since and failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m, AW) last time on his first start for 112 days; now drops to 7f with cheekpieces applied on this return to turf. |

Got off the mark at Chelmsford (1m) in September but he's been off since turning in a poor sixth there in December; more is required despite a slipping mark. |

14th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Initial bumper promise for Harry Fry in late 2022, early 2023; soundly beaten in three starts in maiden/novice company (7f-1m4f; massive prices); tries handicapping over a more suitable trip at a realistic level, but only of interest if the market speaks favourably. |

31st May 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Showed promise in her first two bumpers for Harrry Fry, but lightly raced under both codes since and has gone the wrong way; stable also runs Victoria Concordia. |

Sea The Stars colt who improved on his debut effort when contesting a Southwell novice event (1m, Tapeta) latest; should be capable of being more competitive when upped in trip but not written off here. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
No better than midfield in two Meydan starts; 2-2 since racing in Britain, gamely landing the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm; turf debut) last time, albeit fortuitously as the runner-up looked unlucky; faces a tougher task on these terms but is open to further improvement. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (29) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Down the field in his Meydan races but returned from a break for British debut and he dominated throughout in that 1m maiden at Chelmsford, scoring by 3l; had the run of things that day and the handicapper has taken no chances, but he's a dark one on turf debut for a trainer who's had plenty of success at this meeting; a nagging concern is that only one recent winner emerged from a maiden or novice. |
11/1 |
|
4 (5) |
22nd May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Showed ability when sixth in a 7f Meydan conditions race (dirt) in January; well below that level back there (1m) when last seen; if building on his original effort he should be involved but has that to prove. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has something to prove having been well beaten in handicaps on his last two starts; however, this 3yo impressed in a novice at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in July and is in top hands; too soon to write him off. |
10/1 |
|
9th 5 (1) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Trounced his rivals in Windsor novice (1m, good to firm) last month but he's found things tough in Ascot handicaps (Class 2) either side of that; still unexposed and now drops back in grade but he needs more progress back at this trip. |
7/1 |
|
12th 15 (16) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Made no impact in the Britannia and he faced a much easier task when landing the odds in Windsor novice (1m, good to firm) next time; back in deeper waters here but he's low mileage, in good hands and hard to rule out. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
His two wins last season (1m6f and 2m) both came on AW and by wide margins; also fully effective on turf and he made a most encouraging seasonal return when keeping on strongly in a 1m4f handicap (good ground) at Newmarket four weeks ago; still capable of better and the return to 1m6f will suit; Tom Marquand a good booking (a win and a fourth from two rides for the stable in the last five years); strong claims. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 8 (1) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Made good progress handicapping for this yard from August onwards, scoring at Southwell (1m6f) then easily defying a penalty at Lingfield (2m, also AW) ten days later; fine effort when fourth in the Old Rowley Cup over C&D (good) in October and had soft-ground excuse on final start of the term; not fully exposed and he's respected on this return. |
5/1 |
|
6 (2) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Eight races; won by 10l at Southwell (1m6f, AW) in August and by 5l without any problems at Lingfield (2m, AW) ten days later; second of six to Blazeon Fine at Ascot (2m, good to soft) and another good effort at Newmarket (good) one week later considering it was a hot race over 1m4f; not proven on soft but back up in trip and may still have improvement in him. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Modest form so far, failing to beat a rival in two handicaps, at 6f and 1m; needs so much more for the fitting of a tongue-tie. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
11-race maiden; raced too freely in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) and flopped badly when warm favourite at Chester two months ago but the form of his close fourth at Newbury (1m2f, good) in April worked out well and he'll be dangerous here if all goes to plan after his short break. |
7/2 |

9th 14 (4) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up over about 1m2f on four of eight starts last year, including in two handicaps and one was at this track; disappointing when 4-7 in a novice event on reappearance but back-to-form fourth of 14 in 1m2f handicap at Newbury on latest start; place claims again and cheekpieces are added. |
9/2 |

4th 9 (7) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up over about 1m2f on four of eight starts last year, including in two handicaps; close third on reappearance at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in early March but that was when 4-7 in a novice event and that disappointment heightens the concern over his lingering maiden status. |

26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
First-time cheekpieces did the trick in a Yarmouth classified in July and it was a solid effort when second of four in a handicap there (also 11.5f, good) three weeks ago; earlier AW form may be a red herring and he's respected again. |
4/1 |

3rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
The first-time cheekpieces (retained) did the trick when off the mark over C&D (good) 18 days ago; that was a classified contest but the RPR he posted suggests this mark should be very manageable. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Twice tailed off but improved in his other three races, always prominent when off the mark by a neck in ten-runner handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago; wore cheekpieces last four starts; up 4lb today but he found more when challenged last time and there may have been more in the tank. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has been all or nothing in four starts, two tailed-off runs mixed in with good efforts in a Windsor novice in June and again on handicap debut when third at that track (also 1m, good; 33-1) 16 days ago; some consistency wouldn't go amiss but he finished it off strongly last time and looks interesting going up in trip. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Gained his 2025 novice win over 1m2f but coped well with the return to 1m at Newbury (good to firm) most recently, comfortably making all and giving the impression he'll be as effective dropped back even further in trip; low-mileage 4yo who is improving and is by a sire whose biggest moment came on the straight track at Ascot, for this stable; major claims. |
12/1 |

1st 3 (7) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark upped to 1m2f at Windsor last June; gelded prior to finishing second on his reappearance/handicap debut 11 days ago (1m2f, good to soft), pulling clear with the winner having travelled strongly; a 3lb rise won't help but he isn't fully exposed and returning to 1m shouldn't be an issue. |

9st 9lb |
Finished last on his handicap debut (first-time cheekpieces), upped to this trip having offered little in three runs over 1m, but wasn't beaten far in a messy affair; may ultimately want more of a test, judged on pedigree, but is one to keep an eye on. |
