2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Won on the Kempton AW in May and placed there over 1m4f and 2m on his last two outings, with two of those under Jack Dace; chief concern is that his turf form (five races, only one this season) is at a lower level. |

2nd 3 (3) |
4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won by a nose here over 1m3f on his stable debut in May and bounced back from a lesser run on turf when third here over 1m4f last time, form that has since been franked by the winner; stamina is a concern on his first try at 2m. |
9/1 |

3rd 10 (12) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |

Held on to beat Dust Cover by a nose here over 1m3f on his stable debut in May before a disappointing run at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft), taking his record on turf to 0-5; could bounce back returned to this surface. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Has won three times, including here over 1m3f in February off a mark 5lb lower than today's, and he was beaten only a nose by Must Believe here in May; didn't quite get home here over 2m last month and will be suited by this drop back in trip; has claims. |
10/1 |

4th 5 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Gained a first success at Southwell (1m3f) in November and has added two more AW victories since, including over 1m3f here; not disgraced with fifth of 15 at Newbury (1m4f) last time and well in the mix if his stamina holds out on his first run beyond 1m4f. |

11st 1lb |
Two good runs when third at York and second at Newbury (both over 10.5f) for today's rider on last two starts; interesting, although stamina not guaranteed on first run at beyond 1m3f. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who was creditable third of 14 under Harry Rimell in stronger race than this at York (extended 1m2f, good) last month; good chance off same mark here, assuming he handles the faster ground. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 10 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
1m2f winner on good ground at Nottingham in April (4lb lower) but has dropped his guard the last twice and he's been contesting Class 5s, so this demands a fair bit more even if back in the groove. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
In good form without winning in the spring but well below par since returning from a four-month absence in handicaps at Haydock (11.5f) and Leicester (1m) last two runs; this course scorer needs to take a big step forward. |
20/1 |

9th 11 (8) |
21st Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |

Ten-time AW scorer whose form dipped markedly returned to turf last time, taking record in this sphere to 0-11; opposed. |
33/1 |

12th 5 (6) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
A dual 1m2f/1m4f scorer in 2024; missed 2025 but back in good form this season, third of ten in 1m4f handicap at Kempton 23 last month; in the mix off the same mark. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Dual winner (1m2f/1m4f; good to firm/AW); respectable fifth of ten here over 1m3f in May on his first start for 433 days but he was below his best at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in June; needs to bounce back on his first start since. |
8/1 |
|
8th 9 (2) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Dead-heated at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in November 2024 and he was runner-up over that C&D last February; showed he retains ability when fifth at Kempton (1m3f, AW) on his first start for 433 days last month and may come on for it, although this drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Looked less than straightforward but ultimately responded well to change of headgear when winning at Sandown (1m2f, good to soft) most recently, taking record to 3-16; enters calculations in the retained blinkers. |
8/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Ideally suited by good or slower ground and he's very effective on heavy; won at Doncaster in March (1m2f) and had a near miss at Goodwood in June but his form nosedived at Epsom 11 days ago; has bit to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back in new headgear. |
12/1 |
|
12th 10 (3) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Not at his best last time but on the up previously and neither trip nor ground will be a concern; each-way shout. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Salisbury (1m4f, good) in May and runner-up on next three starts (1m4f, good/good to firm); below par at Doncaster a fortnight ago but good to soft ground may not have suited; may well bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
8th 1 (2) |
10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won at Salisbury in May and better form when second at Goodwood, Ascot and Newbury in his three starts since; all were at 1m4f and he's versatile tactically, having made the running on penultimate start; below form much earlier in career on softer than good; thereabouts if ground is okay. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Salisbury in May and improved again when second since at Goodwood (again 1m4f on good) and Ascot (1m4f, good to firm); versatile tactically and made the running last time; raised another 3lb but looks set for another bold show. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 5 |

Ex-French 5yo who is far from solid on his British form (Flat/hurdles) and remains best watched unless the market suggests a resurgence is on the way. |
25/1 |

3 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |

8th 8 (4) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
9.5f winner in France as a 2yo, but he's been poor over hurdles for current yard and was well held back on the Flat here (1m3f) 16 days ago; overall record is now 1-14 and he needs to turn things around back in trip. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Campaigned mostly on AW this season; has failed to repeat the form of her July success; has done most of her winning on turf but is well exposed, unlike some of today's rivals; the oldest contender. |
20/1 |

5th 3 (1) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Her Kempton success (1m3f, Polytrack) in July came in a race run at a crawl; still 3lb higher and out of the frame in three starts since; others preferred. |

5th 5 (1) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |

4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
0-6 over middle-distances on turf for Jim Bolger last year but made the frame on five occasions; changed hands for 32,000gns in October and makes her stable/AW debut after 200 days off; market useful. |
10/1 |

16th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Has been consistent in defeat in five maidens up to this trip; might have found the ground too testing when a bit below her best at Listowel last time; prominent racer needs a bit more but likely to be involved. |
7/1 |
|
11 (3) |
22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 15y |
9st 3lb |
Has made the frame on all three starts; solid form but does not seem to be improving on the evidence of recent third at Galway. |
