16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month but not at the same level at Epsom (8.5f, good) and Kempton (7f, AW) since, and needs to get back on track. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Added to a good record in the spring when winning off 2lb lower at Lingfield (1m) last month in first-time cheekpieces; a long way below that level on turf since and this trip is a bare minimum round here, especially from a wide stall. |

7f nursery winner here (good; has won on good to firm) in 2023; landed seventh AW win when scoring at Lingfield (1m; first-time cheekpieces, retained) a fortnight ago; has won off higher marks than this and must be considered on his return to turf. |

9st 13lb |
Runner-up three times this summer (at up to 8.6f) before winning at Chepstow (1m, good) last month; came clear with the runner-up last time and this lightly raced 4yo holds solid claims up 5lb. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 14y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Lightly raced 4yo whose only real blip in his last four handicaps came in a strong race at York; solid run in defeat at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and he's 1lb well in on the back of that. |

Sole AW start when second of 15 at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) at the start of June; solid run when filling that spot again (1m, good to soft) 12 days ago; unexposed and likely capable of better. |

9st 0lb |
Consistent across his five starts last year and won off this mark at Nottingham (1m, good) last June; reappeared with close eighth of 24 in the Spring Cup at Newbury (1m, good) and could build on that effort today; chance. |
11/2 |

8th 24 (15) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Reliable last season, going close under a positive Sam Hitchcott ride over C&D (good) in May; met some trouble at Newmarket on final start; not discounted, although he'll need a career best from his current mark. |
16/1 |
|
3 (10) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Efforts since last summer leave plenty to be desired, including last month's Wolverhampton reappearance (8.6f, AW; first start since being gelded); however, he is 2-2 here (1m/1m1f) and 7lb lower than when last successful; worth a second look; stable also runs Sir Paul Ramsey. |

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. |

9st 13lb |
Took full advantage of the drop into Class 4 company when readily seeing off five rivals at Redcar last week (1m, good to firm); penalised in a deeper race but he still commands serious respect. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins last season, over C&D in April (good) and off 1lb lower over 1m1f at York in June (good to firm; beat Cosmos Raj by a nose); not disgraced in two competitive handicaps this season and is the one to beat now down in grade. |
11/8 |

6th 13 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended last season with a good third to Man Of La Mancha over 1m1f on this course (good to firm); shaped as if retaining all his ability when seventh of 22 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster, short of room closing stages; should be spot-on with that run behind him and looks ready to strike. |

3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Moving up to 1m4f worked well in December and comparable form at 1m6f/2m since, including another win three starts back; he's come up a bit short in warmer races this year, though, including behind Align The Stars at Kempton, and none of his turf form (admittedly at up to 1m2f) is close to this mark. |
25/1 |
|
10th 6 (6) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won three times in December (1m/1m4f) and continued in good form, getting back on the scoresheet in a five-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last month; didn't run badly over 2m at Kempton last Saturday; drops back in trip here and may find today's company to be too competitive. |
40/1 |
|
6th 2 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Basically progressive in a busy winter AW campaign and probably stays 2m, although the last three wins were over 1m4f (twice) and 1m6f (latest start); raised another 3lb but needs respect. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Rallied for eyecatching second on handicap debut at Ascot (1m, good to firm) in July; mid-division in Glorious Goodwood handicap (1m2f, good) next time and well beaten at Ascot (1m2f) most recently, but that was on soft ground; not ruled out now back on better ground in view of the Ascot promise. |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 212y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Made all in a maiden on his fourth start and very nearly followed up on handicap debut here, again over 1m on good to firm; strong in the finish that day and didn't get the chance to show what he could do upped to 1m2f at Glorious Goodwood; soft ground is a complete unknown but remains of interest. |
12/1 |
|
10th 13 (9) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark at the fourth attempt when making all in Nottingham maiden (1m, good to firm) in May and went very close on handicap debut in small field at Ascot (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago; this race is hotter but he kept on strongly last time and could have more to offer now upped to 1m2f. |

8st 9lb |
Both wins came over 1m2f in the spring of 2024, including here; 0-18 subsequently and he's still 7lb above his last winning mark, but he goes well fresh (has won after a longer break) and finished third on his comeback in this race last year; likely to be competitive. |

3rd 4 (8) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Has run some really good races in defeat this season, including over C&D on good/good to firm; latest soft-ground Ascot second (Grizedale third) shows he's still in form but he's been beaten on his last 17 starts and suspicion he might find at least one too strong again. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |

Prominent racer who won in good style here (1m, good) in April on his handicap and seasonal debut; has failed to progress but gelded since last time and the return to the Rowley Mile could give him a boost. |
14/1 |

9th 11 (2) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |

Showed fairly useful form in the spring, including reappearance win, and last two efforts can be excused; however, still needs to prove he can defy this sort of mark. |
25/1 |
|
4 (17) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Made virtually all for a clearcut win on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good) in April but hit with 9lb rise for that success and he's been vulnerable in two subsequent runs; reported to have had post-race heat stress at Newmarket last month but this is a deeper race and others are preferred; the hood worn last time is removed. |

9st 1lb |
Gelded before winning at Windsor (good to firm) last May and finished that season with further wins at Sandown (also 1m, soft) and Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm); on the premises when he suffered chance-ending interference at Newbury last time and this tactically versatile sort is well drawn to sit handy; interesting. |
13/2 |

5th 13 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won three of his seven handicaps (1m-1m1f) last term, including the last two; just fourth of 13 to Spanish Voice when favourite at Newmarket on reappearance but that was respectable; player on peak 2025 effort. |
10/1 |

On a roll when last seen, winning at Sandown (1m, soft) and on this course (1m1f, good to firm) in second half of last season; that form looks solid and he's been nudged up only 3lb for the second success; leading claims if ready to roll after seven months off. |

Acts on soft ground; better than ever this season, winning at Doncaster (good to soft) and following up at Southwell (again 7f, AW); solid second to Sterling Knight (1m, good) last time but he'll need more from the same mark. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Reappeared with a win at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in March and got up in the final strides to follow up at Southwell (7f, AW); won over 1m last summer and versatile ground-wise; this progressive 5yo is climbing the weights only slowly and could play another leading role. |

Well backed at Doncaster (7f Class 4, good to soft) just over a month ago and that support was justified, as he drew clear of his 15 rivals; 4lb higher but no issues with AW and this long home straight should play to his strengths; the one to beat and he has Silvestre De Sousa in the saddle. |

Outstayed over 1m1f on final start last term, which was also his only race on good to firm; progressive at 1m otherwise and laughed at his 21 rivals in the Spring Mile at Doncaster (good to soft) on reappearance seven weeks ago; up 8lb but that win came with huge authority and he's still low mileage. |

3yo who has improved with each of his four runs, winning at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month before close second on handicap debut at Haydock (1m, good; well backed); pedigree provides optimism today's extra yardage will suited and this unexposed sort is firmly in calculations. |
