8th 17 (13) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Just six races; came from the back when second on handicap debut at Haydock (1m6f, good to soft) last September and again when eventually well on top at York (1m4f, good; 8lb higher today) this May; the latter promised much, which was singularly unfulfilled when hot favourite at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) seven weeks ago; virtually first off the bridle that day but a return to 1m6f on softer ground today ensures that he remains of major interest. |

7th 5 (8) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Made debut in June 2025 and has had just five races (beaten a neck on good to firm on second start); came from the back when second on handicap debut at Haydock (1m6f, good to soft) in September and again when eventually well on top at York (1m4f, good; Plage De Havre third) on reappearance this May; up 8lb but retains significant potential. |

1st 10 (5) |
13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Made his debut only last June and has had just four races; long odds-on for 1m4f novice win in August and best form when second of six to Sing Us A Song on handicap debut at Haydock (1m6f, again good to soft; came from the back) in September; probably still a work in progress at that stage and he starts 2026 (for in-form yard) with significant potential. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Upset in the stalls when a disappointing favourite at this meeting last year (subsequently gelded); had a 1m6f win next time and solid performances when beaten about 3l on all three starts this season, sixth of 16 when back up to 1m6f at Royal Ascot latest; others saw it out better that day but he should have serious each-way claims. |
6/1 |
|
5th 14 (7) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 3-9 overall and going the right way in handicaps, finishing a clear second (from the front) over 1m4f at York (good) last time behind a sharp Haggas improver whom he'd beaten over 1m6f on final run last season (good to soft; first run after gelding operation); this return to 1m6f has to be a good thing; respected. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 6 (3) |
13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Disappointed over 1m4f at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood last summer but returned from a gelding operation to win at Haydock (sole run at 1m6f, good to soft) in September; made a satisfactory reappearance at Epsom 15 days ago and is still lightly raced, so could have more to offer; good ground and softer would probably be better for him than good to firm. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Won in great style at Haydock (1m4f, good; unraced on softer) last July and put up a bold show over C&D this May; having been a non-runner at Royal Ascot where the good to firm ground was deemed unsuitable, he ran on it at Newmarket seven weeks ago and disappointed; can go well if back to peak form. |
12/1 |
|
9th 2 (11) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
10lb higher than when winning this race at its usual home Haydock (good) last July in great style; that was his final race last season but he put up a bold show when third to Klassleader at York this May; non-runner at Royal Ascot where the good to firm ground was deemed unsuitable (third of 12 on it at York last May); big shout if today's ground is okay. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Back to form with a bang when scoring comfortably over C&D (good to firm) six weeks ago, his 20th outing at this track; retains handicapping scope on old form after a 6lb rise but he's yet to win back to back. |
16/1 |

1st 4 (9) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
His 19 course starts have yielded five places and a win over 1m4f back in 2023 but he hasn't been at his best on turf here the last twice; back on a good mark but need to see more. |
20/1 |
|
12th 14 (2) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
18 starts here have yielded five places and a win over 1m4f back in 2023, although he wasn't at his best when beating one home in this race last year; in fair form over this trip on AW in the spring but his return to turf, when beaten 8l over 1m4f here one month ago, will need improving on. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Markedly improved last year and even better this term, all on good or good to firm, although he had lots of soft-ground form in previous seasons; wore cheekpieces when staying-on third of 16 to Daiquiri Bay at Royal Ascot (1m6f) and close second at Newmarket (1m4f) 18 days later; raised another 3lb but each-way player if the ground is okay for him. |
20/1 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Much improved last year, including after his second to Plage De Havre in this race at Haydock; York sixth to Klassleader on reappearance but back to his best when staying-on third of 16 at Royal Ascot (1m6f, good to firm) 18 days ago; needs respect. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Had a ball last year after being gelded, winning three of his six starts and as good as ever when a close fifth stepped up to 1m6f at Haydock in September; however, he is a 6yo and perhaps high in the weights now, a suspicion seemingly confirmed by his York run one month ago; there's no obvious significance in the return of cheekpieces. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Probably no ground worries; not a prolific winner, with his waiting tactics, but he was fourth in the Ebor last year off a 2lb higher mark; ran creditably on reappearance, before none of his three starts since panned out favourably; can be given a place chance. |
33/1 |
|
8th 5 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Not a prolific winner, with his waiting tactics, but he was fourth in the Ebor at York (1m6f, good to firm) last August off a 2lb higher mark; ran creditably on reappearance, before neither start since panned out favourably; only ninth in this last year on his only run at Goodwood. |
25/1 |
|
11th 2 (13) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Not a prolific winner, with his waiting tactics, and never involved when 7-1 for last year's 1m4f Duke of Edinburgh at this meeting; however, it would be unwise not to recall his fourth in the Ebor at York last August (1m6f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark and he was unsuited by the steady pace at York last time out (1m4f); could get competitive should this pan out favourably; stable won this in 2022. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
He's edged down the weights for his new yard this season and has been placed off this mark on his last two starts, finishing third at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) then beaten just a neck at Hamilton (1m5f, good); back up in grade this afternoon but he might not be far away. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
A fairly useful 1m4f winner for Ralph Beckett in 2025; has steadily found his form for his current yard this season, posting a good third of eight in 1m2f handicap at Doncaster eight days ago; firmly in the picture stepping back up in trip. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Five turf wins but has done most of his winning on the AW; surprising to see blinkers back on having won in a visor at Chester last month and then beaten only 4l in a Class 2 handicap at Goodwood; if that doesn't backfire then has possibilities. |
10/1 |
|
8th 11 (9) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Took form to a new level on AW early this year, which he's not repeated but winning at Chester (1m2f, good) 18 days ago was a return to his best turf form; back up 3lb today, well held in this race two years ago (his only handicap here) and he also has more to prove on ground firmer than good. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Disappointed in this race last year and the form of his close third over C&D that September has not been matched; second of six at Ascot on penultimate start was his best show this term but he needs better than that. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 3 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won the Shergar Cup Stayers handicap over C&D last August and he was back to that level when second over 1m6f here (good to firm) a fortnight ago; remains on a competitive mark and needs respect. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Made good strides last season and scored twice at up to 2m, latterly at this track (good to firm); shaped encouragingly on 2026 return (1m2f); failed to build on that at Windsor (11.4f) nearly ten weeks later but takes another step back up in trip today; well handicapped if he returns to his best. |
