5th 1 (7) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Came up short (fourth of six) in this race three years ago and record suggests he's best suited by Listed level; latest effort, in a Chester contest that he'd won twice previously, confirms as much. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won this race in 2023 and 2025, posting a personal best when narrowly beating Witness Stand in the latter; didn't shine back from a lengthy absence at Haydock in May, but he shaped as though he needed that run and has leading claims if he can get back near his best here; key player in his bid to make it 3-4 at Chester. |
9/2 |
|
6th 5 (9) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Won the same Listed event at Chester in 2023 (soft) and 2025 (good), posting a personal best in latter; not seen since but he has plenty of form when fresh and cannot be ruled out. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Not at his best in Group 2s on his last two outings but his fourth when bidding for a second successive win in the Lennox at Goodwood in July shows this front-runner is still capable of very smart form on his day; a potential class act in Listed company. |
3/1 |
|
5th 6 (3) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Ran respectably when bidding for a second win in the Lennox (Group 2) at Goodwood but wasn't at his best last time and has lacked consistency this year; wears an undesirable badge, being the contender who has the longest losing sequence. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Ran as well as he's ever done when second in this race 12 months ago, and he was a creditable third in Group 2 at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good) last time; solid credentials and unlikely to be far away. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Best effort when third in the Group 1 City Of York Stakes (7f, good to soft) in August, but hammered by Almeraq at Haydock next time and still a bit below par when fourth at the Arc meeting (7f, good); each-way claims if he's on a going day but well held on both runs at Ascot and carries clear risks. |
25/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
His career-best RPRs have coincided with his last two encounters with slow ground, specifically a dominant win in the Group 2 Park Stakes at Doncaster (7f, soft) last September and a very creditable third in the Group 1 City Of York Stakes (7f, good to soft) last month; he travelled well in the lead at York and the return to 6f on slow ground could be right up his street. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Unraced at York but he does go on any ground, and his career-best form came on soft when impressing in a 7f Group 2 at Doncaster last September; creditable effort conceding weight all round when runner-up to Paborus in a Group 3 over 6f (AW) on his return to Britain in June and it's best to put a line through his run behind Lake Forest at Glorious Goodwood (7f) as he raced far too freely off a slacking pace; with a truer gallop on the cards and no ground issues, he could be a lively one. |

Stakes winner at two; decent form in conditions events this term, winning over 1m; this longer trip is a query. |

16th 5 (18) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Former Listed winner; back in good form having beaten Rahmi on similar terms at Gowran and his subsequent Cork conqueror was a well-backed favourite who ran well in the Irish 2,000 Guineas; entitled to be competitive off this sort of mark. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
30th Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Listed winner at two when based in Britain and ran okay on occasions when highly tried as a 3yo; below best on yard debut (trip too far) at Gowran but bounced back at same venue earlier this month when making all over a mile; drop back in trip no problem, should go well. |

19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Started his career with a progressive spell on AW that culminated in Listed success; has failed to transfer that form to turf since and may be more interesting when returned to an artificial surface. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (6) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very progressive on AW this year, including a 7f Listed race win at Lingfield, but below that level switched to turf the last twice; bit too soon to suggest he won't prove fully effective on the grass but he has it prove for now. |
8/1 |
|
3 (1) |
6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Unraced at two; very progressive on AW this year, winning Listed event at Lingfield (sole 7f attempt) the final time; disappointing favourite at Ascot (6f Group 3) on the switch to turf but can't be written off; may still have more to offer. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Favourite in a handicap at the Curragh (7f, yielding) three weeks ago on his second stable start and did well to finish third having endured a torrid passage; there's mileage in his mark judged on his peak form for Jack Channon, namely a Group 3 second at Haydock (1m, good) last September, and he could play a leading role back up to 1m if he gets the breaks. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
26th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Smart three-time winner (7f-1m) for Jack Channon who was bought in July for 100,000gns on the back of two below-par runs in strong handicaps; made stable debut in another at Leopardstown (7f, good; 15-2) two weeks ago and wasn't beaten too far after hitting some traffic; respected. |
5/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Smart three-time winner (7f-1m) for Jack Channon who was bought in July for 100,000gns on the back of two below-par runs in strong handicaps; the season had started well in Listed races (including a third here) and Oisin Murphy is a notable jockey booking; worthy of respect. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Dual winner of the Group 3 Bengough over C&D at this meeting, including last year; it's generally been tough going for him in 2026 but he showed he's still capable off this mark on his day when fourth of 21 in the Portland at Doncaster (good) three weeks ago. |
12/1 |
|
4th 7 (21) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Won this race in 2023 (soft ground) off a 9lb higher mark; it's generally been tough going for him this year but he retains ability and it doesn't require a huge leap of faith to see him go close; he could do with being more alert at the stalls though. |
25/1 |
|
15th 8 (16) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Money-spinner for connections down the years; recent efforts have suggested he retains a good deal of his ability and his handicap mark is easing; beaten only 3l in a 7f Group 1 at this meeting 12 months ago; each-way shout. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
As usual, he was held up before breezing through the field to win the Balmoral Handicap over 1m here last October (soft; 4lb lower); needs to put this season's performances behind him but arrives here fresh and rain would heighten interest. |
12/1 |
|
8th 2 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 11y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Held up; excellent 2024 in handicaps on varied ground culminated in his Balmoral triumph at Ascot (1m, soft) in October; never having raced beyond 1m asks a question but he saw it out well that day and has a form chance if putting this month's reappearance (18-1 in Listed race) well behind him. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (7) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Shaped well in a few top handicaps prior to deservedly landing a big pot in the Balmoral at Ascot (1m, soft) last October; whether his hold-up style lends itself to a Listed race around here remains to be seen but he's a big player on form if ready to roll after nine months off. |
