10th 12 (3) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f, good) in May and beat Team Player by a nose to score at Newbury in July; another step forward when second in Shergar Cup race at Ascot (again 2m on good to firm) 11 days ago and a 1lb rise surely won't prevent another bold show. |
9/1 |

2nd 5 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Won the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f, good) in May on return to turf and went in again last time at Newbury (2m, good to firm), where it was hard work in the end but he travelled strongly deep into the race; only 3lb higher and hasn't had a lot of racing. |
9/4 |

1st 5 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 110y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Pretty consistent in seven AW runs and well backed when leading final 1f to win the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f, good) in May on return to turf; failed to live up to favouritism in another consolation race at Newcastle (2m Vase, AW) three weeks ago but that sixth of 20 off this mark was his best form, so he remains one to be interested in. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
1-20, but no doubting his consistency and was only just behind Naval Tribute when third of 12 in an apprentice handicap at Ascot (2m, good) last month; has had more chances than his old rival, but should again go well from the same mark. |
7/2 |

3rd 9 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Sole success came when evens for a Bath novice (1m2f, good to soft) as 2yo; respectable efforts across five starts at 1m6f and 2m in 2025 and he went mighty close at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in March after which he had a run over hurdles; strike-rate isn't a positive but he has the ability to figure. |
7/1 |

4th 4 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Just 1-18 on Flat, with mostly fair form though and he was pipped over 1m6f just 15 days ago on latest start; just as good on turf as AW; sire Golden Horn has done well with plenty of jumpers; needs a close look on hurdle debut. |

10st 0lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in April and close third at Chester (1m4f, good) four weeks ago; this 6yo could give another good account but is taking on some unexposed 3yos and may well be vulnerable. |

3rd 7 (3) |

Has a much better strike-rate on AW than on grass; soundly beaten off his lower turf mark returned to this sphere last time; opposed. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
All six wins have been on AW, the latest over C&D last November off 3lb lower; not so good on turf but was runner up at Carlisle (1m6f, good) last Tuesday which holds her in good stead for this return to AW. |
13/2 |

2nd 4 (3) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 32y Class 4 |

A three-time AW scorer (at up to 1m6f) in 2025; largely in good form this season and recorded a solid third of 11 over C&D in June; not out of things after a break. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
May have done too much early and might have failed for stamina when sixth of eight at Chelmsford (13.3f. Polytrack) 13 days ago (Take The Boat second); better judged on his previous form around here including wins over 1m3f/1m4f; respected for stable that also runs Maywedance. |

6th 1 (7) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 6 |

All wins at 1m3f-1m4f; hasn't fully convinced with stamina in his 1m5f/1m6f attempts, including latest start; may again get outstayed. |

5th 9 (1) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |

In good form at Kempton prior to a lesser effort there (1m3f) last month; needs to bounce back and well beaten in one go on Tapeta; others have less to prove. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Without a Flat win since September 2023, but is now 4lb lower than when third of 14 in a stronger race over C&D in April and drops into 0-70 company for the first time; much respected, especially if allowed his own way in front. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Without a Flat win since 2023 but was placed in valuable 2m AW handicap in April and didn't run badly when sixth of 12 at Ascot (2m, good) last month; eased in grade here; can go well from the front. |

Can set the pace; twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f/16.5f) during the winter and a good third of 14 in competitive event at Lingfield (2m, also AW; Tarbat Ness sixth) on Good Friday; turf no problem and he should give a good account. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All starts on AW; sole start at 2m resulted in short-priced flop at Chelmsford in November; won at that track (1m6f) next time but he let favourite backers down again when beating one home over that trip at Wolverhampton in March; 1m4f caught him out last time but others look safer. |
12/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |

Helped set the race up for the closers when favourite here last time, having previously won easily over 1m6f round Chelmsford; now has to prove his revised mark is within range coming back down in trip. |

7th 5 (4) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |

3-6 in AW handicaps, his latest win a convincing success at Chelmsford (1m6f, Polytrack) in January; raised 8lb for that but still hard to rule out. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Dual Newcastle winner who's generally struggled since returning from more than a year off; his only below-par effort on Tapeta came when not seeing out 1m6f, however, and the handicapper's given him every chance. |
10/1 |

13th 10 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Often a front-runner; 13lb below last winning mark, but patchy form in five starts since returning from 14 months off in October; others make greater appeal. |
33/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Handy sort who was off for 14 months before returning for this yard in October; third of 11 when stepped up in trip at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) 11 days ago, but this will test his stamina further. |
6/1 |
