29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Eleven wins include one over C&D (soft; equally effective on good to firm) on yard debut in June; back up 6lb but has won off slightly higher marks on the AW and his latest Sandown third, where he kept persevering, suggests he should be on the premises again. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Career win number 11 when coming clear at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) on his debut for Tony Carroll; effective on faster ground and a 6lb rise might not stop him if he's turned a corner. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Mainly seen on the AW these days, but he did win three times on turf as a 3yo; interesting to see how he fares in the market on debut for Tony Carroll (same owner). |

26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Disappointing favourite at Ascot (2m, soft) last month and something to prove after that, but this lightly raced 4yo was progressive previously with wins at Bath (11.6f, soft) and over this C&D (good), and perhaps the first-time tongue-tie will help him bounce back to form with a big run. |
15/8 |

5th 5 (4) |
28th Jul 2023 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Had wind and gelding operations and a change of stable last autumn; returned with improved efforts to win at Bath (11.6f, soft) in April and Newmarket (1m6f, good; ridden by 3lb claimer) in June, holding off Traila by a neck in the latter; up another 3lb but 2m looks well worth a go and he's a lightly raced 4yo who retains potential. |
2/1 |

1st 5 (7) |
24th Jun 2023 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Creditable third in a Newcastle handicap (1m4f, AW) on his final run for Michael Bell last season; had wind/gelding operations after that; well backed on his stable debut at Bath (11.6f, soft) in April and he stayed on well for a last-gasp win; 8lb higher on this step back up in grade but he's still lightly raced and is open to more progress at this new trip; respected. |

10st 0lb |
Ended last term with heavy defeats in the Irish Cesarewitch and Group 1 Prix Royal-Oak; up to that he'd had a cracking campaign in handicaps, in which the first of three wins came over C&D first time out (his last AW run), and he still looks on a highly competitive mark if reappearing at the top of his game. |

Two 1m6f wins on her record, the latest on turf off a 1lb lower mark in June; generally held her form since, third of eight at Chelmsford 11 days ago, but more needed to come out on top here. |

Soft and heavy-ground turf winner who won twice in the spring (1m4f/2m, AW); easy to excuse latest effort when down the field in a competitive consolation race; mark okay and he's not dismissed back on turf. |

C&D win in June (good ground) and he has performed to a fair level in defeat since; has more races in him but suspicion he would prefer quicker ground. |

9-70, with the most recent success coming at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in June off a 3lb lower mark than today's; consistent since and this hold-up performer has claims if things drop favourably. |

16th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three 2m wins on AW in the first half of last year; last success was off 4lb higher but the wheels have come off since the autumn and he was tailed off at Kempton (after another wind op) last month; has lots to prove and he needs a major revival. |
12/1 |

28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Won three times on the AW in the first half of last year, the latest over C&D from 1lb higher in June; the wheels appear to have come off since the autumn, but he returns from three months off after a second wind operation; interesting to see how he fares. |

10st 2lb |
6-24 on AW but 0-13 on turf; returned to form when second over C&D (good; Class 3) two weeks ago but he dictated steady fractions from the front and it probably flatters him; still commands some attention. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |

6-24 on AW but 0-12 on turf; recent efforts have been underwhelming and he's probably better suited by 1m4f; not the percentage call. |
20/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Six-time AW winner but he's 0-11 on turf and has struggled at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) and Hamilton (1m5f, good) in last two runs; now drops back into a Class 4 event but he has plenty to prove back at this trip. |
