18th May 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Out of an AW winner and duly improved for the Polytrack when all out to win a 7f maiden at Kempton; 100-1 chance who was well held on her debut finished second, so the form looks dubious; bit to prove mark-wise and on this return to turf. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Useful on the Flat in his prime; 0-8 over hurdles but posted best of three runs for new stable (since a long absence) when third at Taunton (2m, good; behind Mi Sueno) last month and is another 1lb lower here; respected. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
A useful middle-distance Flat performer, but still a maiden over hurdles after seven attempts and has yet to rediscover his form in two starts since returning from a long absence this season; likely best watched for now. |
12/1 |
|
4th 7 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Useful on the Flat, won 1m4f Salisbury handicap in 2023 off a mark of 88; more off days than on in the meantime but soft ground no help on recent yard debut after nearly two years off; worth a market check off a very low mark now back on more suitable ground; cheekpieces refitted. |

33-1, slowly away and never in contention in a 7f novice at Thirsk last summer; bred to stay this far but others have more obvious claims. |

2nd 3 (5) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Regressed over hurdles last year but there was some encouragement with a hood deployed when fourth of seven at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) on his Flat return last month; blinkers (retained) were back on when a pace bias and wide draw did for him at Chester three weeks ago; not entirely ruled out. |
14/1 |
|
12th 7 (12) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Lost his way over hurdles last year and made only a mildly encouraging return to the Flat when keeping-on fourth of seven at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW; first-time hood) last month; not the most obvious answer. |
40/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Lost his way over hurdles, running poorly in two runs back from a break last November; the usual cheekpieces are replaced by a first-time hood and it's hard to believe he's still up to this sort of mark on the Flat. |

7th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
led, kept apart from others on outer early, going easily over 2f out, pushed along over 1f out, ridden and sustained duel with winner inside final furlong, edged right inside final 110yds, headed final stride |
11/8 |
|
6th 15 (15) |
3rd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Late foal; refused to enter the stalls once as 2yo; had wind and gelding operations early this year; improving with his two places as 2yo and a reappearance win from the front when 8-13 in 11-runner novice at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in June; this hot race for handicap debut demands more but he was dominant for that win and is likely to stay. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
2lb well in having only just been denied at Southwell (7f, AW) eight days ago and 1lb lower than when successful at Beverley (7f, good to firm) last July; respected. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner who has dropped 1lb below his last winning mark, but would like to have seen a bit more from him on last month's reappearance back here. |
8/1 |
|
11th 8 (9) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Scored off 2lb higher over C&D last April and was also on target off today's mark on turf last summer; ran well when fresh last year and has a fighting chance if fully tuned up for this reappearance outing. |

13th Dec 2022 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not finished within 10l of the winner in his first three outings, though he had an excuse at Nottingham last time (hung badly right leaving the stalls and lost plenty of ground); handicaps still likely to be more his thing, though. |
66/1 |
|
5th 8 (10) |
26th Oct 2022 Heavy 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
dwelt start, in rear, hung badly right soon after start, soon well behind, headway from 4f out, pushed along 2f out, nearest finish (jockey said colt hung violently right-handed leaving the stalls losing many lengths as a result) |
33/1 |

14th 9 (3) |
17th Sep 2022 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
pulled hard, swerved sharply left start, midfield, pushed along over 2f out, soon lost ground and ridden, lost touch over 1f out (jockey said colt ran too free) |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
6lb lower than when winning at Haydock last summer (1m, good to firm); two creditable runs in defeat this season and he now drops in class. |
3/1 |
|
7th 14 (2) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Ended 2025 in poor form but he built up a head of steam to take a late fourth on his recent Pontefract return (1m, good); now 4lb lower than his Haydock win (1m, good to firm) last August so weighted to be competitive. |
9/1 |
|
12 (11) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Now 4lb lower than for his win at Haydock (1m, good to firm) last summer and he wasn't beaten far on his reappearance at Pontefract (1m, good) ten days ago; should get a decent tow into this race and has claims if he can build on that last run. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Just one win from his 21 starts but he's been a creditable third on two of his three starts this season, most recently at Chepstow (7f, good); he's probably fine on good to soft; in the mix if he's on another going day. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (8) |
21st May 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Only 1-20 but his comeback run was encouraging, over 1m at Pontefract; Wetherby next time was disappointing but he did go down by only a neck on his last run over 7f (last August) and he's his Yorkshire-based yard's only runner on the card; Oisin Murphy rides. |

Verdict
The form standard is set by GALACTIC JACK, while likely improver Maasai Mara has to be feared. However, they head the shortlist somewhat tentatively as all of the debutants are interesting types, most notably Garden Route, Leadenhall and Power Of Gold. Any positive market moves should be strongly heeded.[Steve Boow]
