31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Failed to settle and proved disappointing last time when bidding for AW hat-trick; effective in this sphere and may rebound, especially if the ground is optimal; has gained most turf wins on soft. |

Back to something approaching his best this summer, winning handicaps at Newcastle (1m) and here (7f) on his last two starts; well drawn to attack but a 5lb penalty could scupper his hat-trick bid. |

All wins have been over further when hooded and he's 0-7 at about 7f (has placed form); hasn't really fired in any of his last three races but this is easier than he's accustomed to; unraced at Chester. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Dual C&D winner (also third last month) who made a successful start for the Jane Chapple-Hyam stable over 6f at Newmarket (good) 13 days ago, well on top at the finish and recording a career-best RPR; had the advantage of the rail but his 7lb rise is offset by Toby Moore's claim and his record here affords him respect. |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time turf winner who was in good form when placed on his last four starts for Ross Burdon, notably when 9lb out of the handicap but third at Ascot (6f, good to firm; Fifty Nifty a head in front) a fortnight ago; bought for 11,000gns on Wednesday and he's effectively off the same mark with Billy Loughnane taking over; two runs in blinkers (2023) were not his best but still looks a player on stable debut. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 15 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Two C&D wins to his name; back to form for Ross Burdon, runner-up in his last three starts, but he's upped in class today and has it to do from 9lb out of the weights. |

9st 9lb |
7f AW win for Denis Quinn last season; running well for his new trainer too, most recently finishing a neck second at Epsom (good to firm) last week; runs off the same mark (1lb well in) and he is respected, for all his stamina for 1m has to be conclusively proven. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Close third on stable debut at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) in May and didn't run badly when close eighth of ten (just behind Potomac River) in stronger race than this at Newmarket (7f, good) three weeks ago; no surprise if he features. |
5/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Became his new trainer's first runner, having been picked up from Denis Quinn for 17,000gns, when faring well in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Yarmouth three weeks ago (Dapper Guest behind); generally consistent and won't mind the stiffer 7f. |

10th 2 (6) |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Four-time winner who has been as good as ever in defeat this season, latterly with cheekpieces on for a visor at Newmarket (7f, good to firm; has won at 1m); has run well in his two previous starts at Ascot; respected. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Two course wins at 1m; two good efforts for new yard this year but a promising-looking run came to nothing when back over 1m at York last time; still worth a look returned to 7f in his first course run since last summer's win; first-time cheekpieces replace regular visor. |

9st 9lb |
Both wins have been on heavy turf (6f/7f); didn't see out 1m on his comeback run at Doncaster in March but ran respectably on his AW debut over this C&D in May; can't be dismissed on his first start since but stall 13 isn't ideal. |
9/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins came on heavy ground in the autumn; pulled hard and didn't see it out on his first crack at 1m on comeback but has to prove this career-high mark within range on his AW debut. |

12th 18 (18) |

9st 7lb |
Somewhat mixed this year but he ran two good races at Sandown in midsummer (1m, good to firm) when the visor was discarded, putting up stout resistance against Marsh Benham in July; not so good since but he's weighted to reverse those placings if he's on his game. |
14/1 |
|
6th 3 (6) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |

Yet to win for Jim Boyle but he has finished second on three occasions this year; disappointed as favourite at Lingfield (1m, AW) last week; had form on testing ground in France. |
5/1 |

7th 6 (6) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

Sole win from 15 starts came at Vichy (7f, very soft) when trained in France; has returned to form since having the headgear removed, finishing runner-up at Sandown (1m, good to firm) on two occasions, including when narrowly ahead of Great Blasket last time; makes the shortlist. |

Some fair efforts on turf (6f) and AW (7f) this season; well beaten behind Tex and Dannick over 1m here last month but shaped as if back in better form (met trouble) when sixth of 12 at Leicester (6f) last week. |
33/1 |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Some fair efforts on turf (6f) and AW (7f) this season but his form nosedived at Ascot last time; that was a Class 4 event but he needs to bounce back and probably doesn't have much in hand off his current mark. |
16/1 |

8th 10 (11) |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Sole win in three-runner 7f maiden on AW; has been thereabouts over 7f on sand this year but she was well held in two turf handicaps at Ascot and Newmarket last October and still has to prove 1m is her trip. |
12/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Just a three-runner maiden win, when sent off 1-16, to her name (7f) but ran her best race in defeat at Southwell last time (also 7f; form has worked out very well); claims, particularly if first-time headgear (cheekpieces) give her a lift; trainer also runs Ghisa. |
11/2 |

3rd 5 (4) |

11st 6lb |
In a good vein of form, winning twice on Lingfield's AW during the summer and second to Tex in amateurs' race over 1m here (also placed twice over C&D) last time, collared late having briefly gone clear; the fact there was a long way back to the third has resulted in him being raised to a clear career-high mark but still merits respect in his current mood. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (1) |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Has won two of his last four races, with the latest at Lingfield (visor remover; 1m, AW) quite decisive at the finish; carries no penalty and he's 6lb well in; 0-9 on turf but effective on the surface. |
100/30 |

1st 2 (3) |

Course winner over 7f three starts back off 9lb lower; went close at Southwell (7f, AW) when ridden by Jude Fernandes next time but blew his chance by hanging right over this C&D three days ago; visor is removed and he needs to bounce back. |

Reacted well to a second wind operation, following her breakthrough win at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) with a comfortable success at Ayr (5f, good), the latter under Lucas Murphy; has had excuses and likely still in better form than subsequent duck eggs at York (poorly drawn) and Ripon (started slowly) might suggest; not discounted. |
