8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Unexposed after only five starts but finished well down the field when 66-1 for seasonal/stable debut at Haydock (1m, good) three months ago; not seen since; considered only if much stronger in the betting here. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Made all in an Ayr novice (1m, good to soft) in September, his third start, and that form has worked out; fluffed his lines when favourite for a 1m2f nursery at Nottingham one month later; has left Adrian Keatley and makes his stable/seasonal debut in a competitive race; not fully exposed and it will be interesting to see if his backers return. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won here (7f, AW) last November on sole 2yo start; started his handicap career with a fair fifth at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in May and he had a tough assignment in Class 3 at Glorious Goodwood last time; still unexposed and he's one to keep an eye on back in calmer waters. |
14/1 |

19th 18 (5) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Won at Kempton (7f, AW) last November on sole 2yo start; fifth on both outings this season, most recently on handicap debut at Windsor (1m, good to firm) when beaten 3l; very lightly raced and improvement can't be ruled out, but he certainly needs to take a step forward today. |

Defied market weakness when winning a 7f novice at Kempton on his debut in November; not so good at Leicester four weeks ago; up in trip for his handicap debut but not obviously well treated. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Progressed well this year and was doing all his best work late when mid-division in a big field at Glorious Goodwood (1m); stays 1m1f and he'll probably stay this far; has more to offer. |
4/1 |

9th 6 (7) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive this term and he got off the mark at Sandown (1m, good) in May on his second handicap start; couldn't quite get there when second of five at Sandown (1m1f, good) since but the expected competitive gallop in this big field should be right up his street, and he's one to consider. |
8/1 |

2nd 1 (5) |

Wore cheekpieces last three outings, for a rallying second at Sandown (1m2f, good/good to firm) on last two occasions; better is needed but he shapes as if new trip is well worth a go. |

2nd 6 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Wore cheekpieces last two outings and latest brought easily his best show as a 3yo, when soon close up for a rallying second of 12 over C&D (good; probably acts on good to firm); Bridge Of Eagles and Tambora were in close attendance that day and this one is now 1lb worse off; in the mix. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Fairly useful form when runner-up in Newmarket handicap (1m4f, good) in June, but he was well held back in a novice last time and that took his record to 0-7; visor is now tried but this looks a tough task on his AW debut and others are preferred. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 2 |

Given every chance when going down narrowly in a 1m4f Newmarket handicap 20 days ago; that form entitles him to a second look here (in new cheekpieces) but he is 0-6 and others should have greater potential. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |

His nursery win (sole success) was on soft so the recent rain is welcomed; downgraded from running in Ascot handicaps in his last two races. |
10/1 |

7th 9 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
His nursery win (sole success) was on soft but conditions were good to firm when second to Last Verse in a small field at Chepstow (1m4f), since when he's finished tailed off here after suffering early interference; needs his best form yet even if putting best foot forward. |
16/1 |

15th 10 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
2yo win was over 1m on soft at a stiff track and he was stepped up to 1m4f when second of four at Chepstow (good to firm) on latest outing, his best show this term; needs to build on that but he saw the trip out very well and could have more in the tank. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last year, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) and Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in September; 7lb higher than for that latest success and needs to take a step forward from last month's reappearance at Windsor. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |

Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last summer, rounding off his 2yo campaign with wins at Kempton (1m) and Wolverhampton (9.4f); has more to do in this higher grade off a 7lb higher mark but he isn't fully exposed; returns with his trainer in fine form. |

9st 6lb |
Caused a 40-1 surprise when winning in first-time blinkers at Sandown (1m2f, good) in June and backed that up when caught on the post at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW); well drawn and there's no obvious reason why he can't go well. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |

Ran poorly at Kempton last August in his only AW race; resumed progress with his turf form on latest outing, winning a 12-runner handicap at Sandown (1m2f, good) five weeks ago when 40-1 in first-time blinkers; up 4lb but that was a warm race and he'll go well if this surface proves no impediment. |

24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 7f juvenile winner; largely running with credit this season and not seen to ideal effect when 12th in 1m Kempton handicap two weeks ago, racing wide; a likely player from a slipping mark for yard among the winners. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Left inauspicious seasonal/handicap debut (1m2f) behind when very close second (subsequently awarded race) at Goodwood (1m4f, good) last month, reportedly benefiting from combination of step up in trip and first-time hood; could easily have more improvement to come. |

Failed to progress from his debut in novice/maiden company last year (all over 1m) and he never featured on his handicap debut/reappearance at Salisbury (1m2f, good; first start since being gelded) 27 days ago; better is needed now stepping up in trip with a hood applied. |

7f AW win as a 2yo; on the up in handicaps this summer, keeping on well to beat five rivals at Sandown (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; 4lb higher in a stronger race but Oisin Murphy takes over for the first time and he has a good record for the stable. |

Northern Empire
Verdict
They are plenty of unexposed types in the line-up and this looks wide open. Mohaaraj won at Kempton in February and is respected back from another break, while Chester winner Berkshire Boom and recent Wolverhampton runner-up Law Court also need a close look on their handicap debuts. Hat-trick seeker Midnight Rodeo is open to more progress back on turf on his return, but the vote goes to OHARA who made the breakthrough in his final run last season and that was an emphatic win over this trip at Pontefract.[David Moon]
