20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
3-3 at Ayr, all in Listed races including a dead-heat in this race in 2024; ran another fine race when third to classy stablemate Night Raider in the Group 2 Temple Stakes four weeks ago; obvious chance back down in grade and rain won't bother her. |

3rd 9 (12) |
23rd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Three Listed wins, latest at Ayr (5.5f, soft) last September; returned with Listed third at Bath (5f, good) but well beaten in Longchamp Group 3 (5f, soft) since; fifth in this race in 2024; may again be vulnerable. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Her three Listed wins have all come at Ayr, but she is fully effective elsewhere and ran right up to her best when a neck second at Ascot when last seen in October (5f, soft); can go well fresh and she is a leading contender despite her 3lb penalty. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 110y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won the Listed 2yo event on this card 12 months ago (5f, good) and posted a last-gasp win off top weight in a competitive handicap at York (5f, good to firm) last month; today's trip could be a good fit and she's a strong candidate if handling the ground (unraced on a slow surface). |
3/1 |
|
1 (14) |
20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Won 2yo Listed race last September (5f, good) and went close in Listed races on first three starts this term, beaten just a head over C&D (good to firm) on the middle occasion; below par here last month when she reportedly boiled over in the preliminaries; could bounce back with a bold bid on handicap debut. |
11/1 |

8 (3) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 5lb |
Arrives in form with three near-misses in Listed races this season; just denied at Sandown (5f, good to firm) last month, and she'd previously led until the dying strides over this C&D; should make another bold bid. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Third to Beautiful Diamond over 5.5f here (soft) in September on her final run for Mark Usher; low-key start for Ralph Beckett but she bounced back to form at York (6f, good) eight days ago, blowing the start but making a big mid-race move before weakening into fourth close home; shaped like the best horse in that race and perhaps has a stronger chance than her rating might indicate. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (11) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Ran well when third in a Listed event at Ayr last September (5.5f, soft; final run for Mark Usher); unplaced in two Listed races for new stable in 2026; faces a more suitable challenge today and her apprentice takes off a valuable 7lb. |
10/1 |
|
6th 6 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
More than just not handling the track was amiss when she was last on her recent return at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); however, this lightly raced 4yo showed improved form when tackling soft ground at Ayr last September, finishing third in that 5.5f Listed race; not discounted back on slow ground. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
4yo who has shown improved form in Listed races this term, finishing runner-up at Haydock (6f, good to soft) and Musselburgh (7f, good) on last two outings; Circe was 1.25l ahead of her at the latter but she's 3lb better off with Richard Hannon's charge this time; each-way claims again. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 6 (3) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
4yo who has shown improved form in Listed races this term, finishing fourth at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) and runner-up at Haydock (6f, good to soft); she's 0-11 since her debut win in August 2024 and the return to 7f poses a question, but this is an easy track and she's a major player on form. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Scottish raider who has shown great progress, having gone from winning off a mark of 57 early last season to running well in Listed grade a couple of times, including on penultimate start; this is harder. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (14) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Had a wonderful year in 2025, winning six times and rounding off her campaign with a good fifth behind Beautiful Diamond in a Listed event over 5.5f here (soft); down the field on her return but she quickly rebounded with a fine third at Carlisle (Listed; 5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; still improving but the forecast rain may suit others better. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y |
10st 0lb |
Mostly campaigned (without success) in Listed company since winning off 77 at Chepstow (5f, gd-sft) last August; remains 10lb above that last success but a repeat of her 3l Cork fourth on penultimate would give her a squeak back in handicap company and she'll be suited by a strongly run race. |
13/2 |

8th 2 (8) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Unplaced in seven races (six of them Listed) since winning a Class 4 handicap at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) last August; ran okay on Sunday but she will need more to take this; blinkers the headgear of choice. |
33/1 |

4th 4 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Three-time winner in handicaps; has finished behind Keke in her last two races but wasn't too far away last time at Naas (Listed) despite fluffing the start; 80-1 that day but won't be anything like those odds here; could feature. |

9st 8lb |
Record of 7-24 on turf; made all at Pontefract (6f) on Monday, scoring with something to spare and confirming that she's well suited by soft ground; may well remain competitive, even with 5lb penalty. |
8/1 |

20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Won this 12 months ago off 3lb higher before a good fourth in a Doncaster Listed race; this season started slowly but the blindfold was removed late on her penultimate start and she did a solo when fifth of 12 at Ripon; not ruled out. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |

0-4 this year but retains ability; there's a slight concern that she will get taken off her feet early under these conditions and others appeal more. |
25/1 |

15th 3 (18) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won the 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good) last term and fourth in the older-horse version this season; just as effective at 6f and she never got a chance to show her true colours last time at Chester; lacking course experience is not ideal but she's not dismissed. |
16/1 |

5th 4 (8) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |

Won the 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good) last June and left reappearance behind when good fourth of 20 in the Dash there (5f, good to soft) three weeks ago; just as effective at 6f and can play a prominent role from an unchanged mark. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 110y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won Tipperary maiden (5f, good) last month on eighth start and has travelled from Ireland for today's run; however, she was only sixth in a Listed race at Tipperary (5f, yielding) last time and improvement is needed. |
25/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Odds-on C&D maiden winner last time; has plenty of speed, but this 77-rated filly steps into a different league now. |

1st 9 (7) |
8th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Went close in two early season maidens and bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when beaten a short head at Cork a fortnight ago; has shown plenty of speed, so 5f will probably be fine and she sets a solid enough standard on form. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
A fairly useful 5f scorer for Michael Appleby; shaped well for her new yard when placed in 5f handicaps at Wolverhampton and Nottingham in the spring but beat only one over C&D in May; freshened up since and no surprise to see her play a prominent role. |
14/1 |

6th 4 (4) |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Campaigned mostly over 5f; successful three times for previous yard and beaten only half a length in both starts for new stable, while leaving the impression this return to 6f is perhaps worth exploring; in-form filly who warrants respect. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 4 (9) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Three turf wins, including over C&D, for previous yard; close second to Layla Liz when favourite at Wolverhampton (5f) on AW/stable/seasonal debut, doing well having come from a difficult position; could well reverse the placings and go one better. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Won a 5f handicap off this mark at Newmarket (good to firm) last August; she has run some fair races this year but her latest effort (tried in cheekpieces, usual visor back on today) wasn't one of them; no surprise to see her bounce back quickly. |

9st 11lb |
Eleven-time winner including at Listed level; ran well on seasonal reappearance in the Listed Beverley Bullet but has failed to land a blow the last twice; 3-16 on the AW but could only manage sixth when 5-1 for this last year; needs to rediscover best. |
15/2 |

12th 3 (11) |
19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 110y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Made all in this last year (good) and encouraging Listed third at Beverley (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago on her belated reappearance; won on soft ground at the start of her career; her usual visor returns (left off last time) and she has leading claims if building on her comeback run. |
4/1 |

30th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Had a busy 2024 and notched six wins, the last of them in 5.5f Listed race at Ayr; would have real possibilities if repeating that form, although she'll need to hit the ground running after over ten months off. |
