23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Ended 2025 in top form, winning twice at Beverley (5f, soft), but she has looked rusty on both her starts this year; absent another seven weeks since her last run and probably best watched. |
50/1 |

9th 5 (6) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
In great form on soft ground last autumn but was punished by the assessor for a Listed effort that possibly flatters her; never figured in AW event two months ago; current mark seems difficult. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Recorded his sixth victory of the year with a career-best effort in 5.4f handicap at York 16 days ago; he's also a winner in the mud so must enter calculations once more. |
5/1 |

1 (7) |
7th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He has enjoyed a fine season, winning five handicaps, and he ran another sound race when fourth in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon three weeks ago; this intermediate trip should suit and he's versatile where the going is concerned; likely to run well but might find a few better treated. |
10/1 |

2 (17) |
16th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
He's enjoyed a fine year and although he's come unstuck on his last two starts, he did too much early at York and then raced up the middle in the Stewards' Cup; earlier Ascot win off just 2lb lower was a fine effort; first visit to Ripon but he has won on the undulations at Epsom; drawn against the rail and a big run would seem likely. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who looks well handicapped on his win at Haydock (5f, good) last autumn but he's been disappointing at Musselburgh and Goodwood this spring; has some questions to answer and he needs a major revival with headgear removed; stablemate of Rhythm N Hooves. |
12/1 |

9th 1 (1) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Useful front-runner who returned with a good third in 5f AW listed event at Lingfield in February; not at his best on soft ground at Musselburgh since but can bounce back here. |
8/1 |
|
13th 1 (6) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Tough 5f specialist who usually makes the running; a respectable third at Lingfield six weeks ago should have blown away the cobwebs; concedes weight all round but he's a classy type and should go well. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Scored three times (including over C&D) as a juvenile and signed off with victory in Newmarket's Cornwallis Stakes (on good to soft ground) in October; well below that form when beating just one home in 5f Sandown Listed event on her return in June and absent since; yard is going well but she has something to prove now. |
5/2 |

14th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Progressive last term and took record to 3-5 with Cornwallis win at Newmarket (good to soft) final start; warrants respect even though she lacks recent match practice and carries 5lb penalty. |
3/1 |
|
1st 9 (11) |
11th Oct 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Registered her 5f wins at Beverley (soft) and Goodwood (good to firm) in the style of a useful filly; creditable third, faring best of the high-drawn runners, when favourite for Ayr Listed race since; may still progress further and remains of interest. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Looked smart when landing the Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes at Newbury (6f, heavy) on final juvenile start; beat only one rival in his first two races last term; produced massive shock (200-1) when beating the favourite Lazaat in 6f Group 1 at Ascot last October (good); wind-surgery evidently the key to that success; little mileage on the clock, fascinating prospect for this season. |
7/2 |

1st 15 (14) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Looked a smart prospect when landing the Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes at Newbury (6f, heavy) last autumn, but he's beaten just one rival in two outings this term and had wind surgery in between; hard to fancy. |
66/1 |
|
5th 3 (5) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Looked a smart prospect when landing the Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes at Newbury (on soft) last September but he beat only one in Haydock's Sandy Lane Stakes in May and has been off since; he needs a subsequent wind op to spark a resurgence. |
