2nd 5 (7) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
The addition of blinkers saw him spring a minor surprise at Bath (1m, firm) in April; not at that level on his last three starts, most recently when ninth behind Marsh Benham at Sandown last month. |
16/1 |

9th 5 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won on reappearance at Bath (1m, firm) in April in first-time blinkers (retained); some respectable efforts since but needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Came good in first-time blinkers at Bath (1m, firm) in April, after a break, but managed only third in a small field there (1m2f) in May and was soundly beaten on his latest outing; needs to kick on again. |

3rd 6 (2) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
A suspicion that 7f might suit him best but after starting slowly he did keep on over 1m at Newbury last time, albeit some 9l off the winner; the handicapper knows all about him. |
13/2 |
|
4th 9 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Holds his form well and wasn't beaten far into fifth of 13 here (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago (Nakaaha 3l behind in sixth); has won twice over this trip, but a suspicion that 7f suits him best. |
10/1 |

5th 1 (13) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Holds his form well despite a busy schedule and appeared to appreciate the drop in trip when beaten half a length into second of 22 at York (7f, good) last time; up 2lb but this is a slightly weaker race; respected. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Placed on his first two runs this year but last two runs not so good; three of his four turf wins have been at Bath, and may be best to wait until he returns to that venue. |
10/1 |

4th 2 (5) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Started the campaign with solid 1m efforts at Lingfield (AW) and Bath (firm); disappointed back at Bath last time but no surprise to see him bounce back in this uncompetitive event. |

2nd 5 (6) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Managed only fifth of eight when upped to 1m2f at Windsor (good to firm) two months ago and remains without a win since 2023; continues to edge down the weights but needs to turn a corner. |
10/1 |
|
5th 6 (9) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Continues to edge down the weights, but losing run is up to 19 and the application of a tongue-tie made little difference last time; something to prove on his first attempt over this far. |
11/2 |
|
4th 3 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ran just four times last season and was runner-up on three occasions (7f/1m, various ground); down the field on reappearance at Kempton (1m, AW) four weeks ago but may have needed that outing and it will be no surprise if he's in the mix; a tongue-tie is added. |

21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark (for today's rider); solid efforts on last three starts and he's a leading contender. |
5/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
3lb higher than when winning this race last year, but is off the same mark as when following up at Salisbury (1m, good to soft) next time; looked unlucky not to go even closer when third of eight at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm) 15 days ago and is respected. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Returned to form with second in amateur riders' race at Brighton (1m, good to firm) last month and is still on a good mark but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his habit of starting slowly is another worry. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
All eight wins have been on turf including three over C&D; well treated on her old form, but last win was two years ago and she's struggled in four of her five runs this season; down the list. |
16/1 |
|
8th 9 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
All eight wins have been on turf; her mark has been in freefall this year but she showed more in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when second of nine at Brighton (7f, good to firm) 12 days ago; needs to show she can maintain that revival back on AW. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Eight-time winner; lurks on a dangerous mark and might be perked up by first-time cheekpieces but has looked out of sorts on all three starts since returning from a layoff in April; leap of faith required to support her. |
