3rd 3 (10) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Picked off late in the 3yo Dash 12 months ago; gelded prior to his seasonal return and he has run well on both starts in 2026, following his close third at Musselburgh with an impressive win at Goodwood five weeks ago (5f, good); a 9lb rise asks a stiffer question but he is progressive. |

1st 10 (2) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Gained a deserved success at Catterick (5f) in October and resumed from five months off with a good third of 14 in 5f Musselburgh handicap 27 days ago; a likely player off an unchanged mark. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Did well for Stuart Williams in the second half of 2025; solid efforts on his first two runs this year before taking his form to new heights with a runaway win at Windsor (6f, good to firm); hit with an 8lb rise for that but it was a good time and there is no suggestion he was flattered; promising apprentice takes off 5lb; one to consider. |
6/1 |

1st 9 (10) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Narrow 6f defeat at Chepstow last August but his next two runs at the trip were a failure and kept to shorter since, winning at Haydock (good to soft) in September; two respectable efforts at 5f this year (no aids latest) don't suggest this mark is ripe for plucking back at 6f, though. |
5/1 |

5th 8 (11) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won a 5f handicap (good to soft; first time in tongue-tie/cheekpieces combination) at Haydock last September off a 6lb lower mark; stayed on for second behind the impressive Lexington Blitz at Goodwood on last month's return; withdrawn at York two weeks ago having got upset in the stalls (9-1 at the time of withdrawal); the more rain the better; no accessories today. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't been at his best since a Listed win at York last May but he's on a reduced mark and showed some spark when third at Goodwood in May; he's had wind surgery since a midfield finish at York later in May and it will be no surprise if he runs well on AW debut. |
8/1 |
|
12th 11 (8) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
His best form is at 5f and he hasn't been at the top of his game since a Listed win at this meeting last May; however, he kept on well for third at Goodwood (5f, good) recently, suggesting the return to 6f is worth exploring, and his two career wins have both come here; a visor goes on. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 7 (3) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Bagged 5f York listed event last May; off seven months/gelded before posting an encouraging eighth of 14 in 5f Musselburgh handicap 27 days ago, nearest finish having lost ground when hampered soon after start; not without interest off a reduced mark. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Had a rare off day in the Dash at Epsom but quickly back on track with a close third at Windsor (5f good to firm) 18 days ago; unlikely to be far away off the same mark. |

3rd 8 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Poor effort at Epsom, behind two of these, last time will need forgiving but he boasts a fair record for Billy Loughnane (won for him last summer off 6lb higher); handicapper given him a chance and it wouldn't be a shock were he to pop up. |
6/1 |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Superb run of AW form at 5f in the autumn, winning three in a row, two from the front; has remained in form since but he couldn't sustain his effort back on turf at Goodwood last time and needs to show he can reproduce his sand form on grass. |
14/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Completed a 5f AW hat-trick last backend and has continued in fine form this spring, runner-up in 5f Southwell handicap last time; must enter calculations back on turf. |
15/2 |

2nd 8 (12) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Ended 2025 on the up and he improved again when second in the Listed Hever Stakes at Lingfield four weeks ago; a 3lb rise demands extra but this speedy sort shouldn't be discounted. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Two good efforts for his new yard in May, beating 13 rivals in a Class 2 handicap at Thirsk (6f, good) off 3lb lower; only midfield in the Wokingham next time and he was left trailing by King Of Light at Windsor 12 days ago; others appeal more. |
16/1 |
|
4th 3 (9) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Has run all over the place for different yards and in good form for this one, finishing close up in a big 6f York race before winning at Thirsk (6f, good); had a very stiff task in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot where he did well to hang on to his lead for as long as he did on the wrong side of the track; this easy 6f will suit better; can go well. |
13/2 |

13th 16 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Exotic career includes races in the US, Britain, Ireland and on snow for various yards, but he comes here in fine form over 6f for this one, having finished close up at York (good; under 2l behind runner-up Binhareer) before winning at Thirsk; 1lb badly in under a penalty and has a harder task. |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Enjoyed an excellent 2025 when a four-time scorer, including in 5f Group 3 at Dundalk in October; yet to fire this term and failed to beat a rival in 5f Pontefract handicap last month; tried in a change of headgear here. |

7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |

Not solid on form shown in UAE and Britain this year but is very useful on his day, being a turf Listed and AW Group 3 scorer last term, as well as close second in the Epsom "Dash". |
9/1 |

8th 2 (11) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Four wins in 2025, notably a Group 3 at Dundalk in October; struggled in two runs in the Middle East this year and he is 4lb higher than when second in last summer's Dash at Epsom, his most recent run in a handicap. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Of interest from a handicapping perspective, 3lb lower than when a close third in last season's Portland at Doncaster (5.6f, good); not beaten far into fifth at Windsor 18 days ago; not easy to win with but likely to give a good account. |
13/2 |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Tendency to blow the start has often cost him; disappointing effort back in the cheekpieces (off again tonight) in the Goodwood handicap he'd won last season early last month, despite a better break; now 3lb lower but will need to better that somewhat. |
10/1 |

8th 8 (11) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Captured this prize last year and largely in good form after, despite his customary slow starts; should strip sharper for his reappearance sixth in 5f Newmarket handicap 17 days ago so he's no forlorn hope in refitted cheekpieces. |

Front-runner; second in this race in 2024 off 3lb higher; ran away with a 5f handicap at Haydock (good ground) last September off this mark; unable to hit the same heights since but his AW third in February was a fair run; won't be inconvenienced should there be a marked deterioration in the going but a full revival is required; visor returns having been left off latest. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who looks well handicapped on his win at Haydock (5f, good) last autumn but he's been disappointing at Musselburgh and Goodwood this spring; has some questions to answer and he needs a major revival with headgear removed; stablemate of Rhythm N Hooves. |

Only 1lb higher than for his win at York's Ebor meeting (5.4f, good to firm) last August; Windsor fourth in May was promising and the Wokingham was always going to be a tough task latest; not dismissed. |
16/1 |

22th 28 (9) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Useful form at a less competitive level in 2025, following 6f wins last June with one in a valuable York race (extended 5f, good to firm) in August; kept on well after being slightly checked in his run at Windsor in May but he has more to prove over this stiff 6f on course debut. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Has never run on ground faster than good (and taken out before on account of unsuitable good ground), so conditions could be a worry; hard to place after a Listed win in Italy last autumn ruined his mark and has struggled in three runs for this yard. |

17th 9 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Suited by good ground or slower; won a 5f Listed race in Italy on his final start for a French yard; big prices and finished down the field in two 5f handicaps last month; dropped 7lb for his troubles but he arrives with a point to prove. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |

Dual 5f winner as a 2yo for Peter Chapple-Hyam and he also scored three times in France/Italy last year; raised his form to a new level in the second half of last season but he failed to beat a rival on stable debut at Goodwood 17 days ago; comes with risks attached after that and he needs to bounce back. |
