31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Two wins since joining Rod Millman, the latest a wide-margin success in a small field at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm) last month; second at Chepstow 25 days ago; handles good to soft but more to prove if it is slower. |

2nd 2 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Six-time winner, latterly in comfortable fashion at the expense of three rivals at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm); strongly considered off 4lb higher; Charlie Tucker claims 7lb, replacing Oisin Murphy. |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Not particularly consistent this term for new stable but his most recent Class 5 attempt resulted in Bath win (1m6f, good; narrowly off 1lb lower) in June; possibilities returned to this grade. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
More wins this year, two over hurdles and two on the Flat (about 1m4f, good), but perhaps found out by a career-high mark at Ascot and Lingfield (back at 1m6f, good to firm) since; probably has work to do again. |
16/1 |

4th 3 (1) |
4th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Having a fine year with success over hurdles and on the Flat (1m4f; stays this far), while latest fourth at Ascot was very respectable; solid claims. |
5/2 |
|
4th 4 (10) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has won six races on the Flat at up to 1m6f and this year is going particularly well, with two hurdle wins and now two over about 1m4f on Flat (on good ground at Salisbury and Chester); raised 4lb to career-high mark but should be fine back on good to firm and he's never been better. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
In form having made the frame in most starts this term, close fourth over C&D on penultimate; has never won away from Wolverhampton but can't be dismissed off current mark. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (3) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Versatile sort whose four wins have all been at this track between 1m4f to around 2m; well-handicapped on his best form but hasn't won for 12 months and some of his younger rivals may have more scope. |
11/1 |
|
4th 3 (10) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All four wins have been at Wolverhampton (1m4f-2m) and latest was 11 months ago; finished a close third off 1lb higher at Bath (1m6f, good) last month but he's not easy to predict and was well held with cheekpieces tried at Chester last time; the headgear is quickly discarded but he comes with risks attached. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Exposed six-time winner who can front run; 2lb beneath the mark he defied at Newbury last summer (1m5f, good to firm; effective on good to soft) and he hasn't been running badly of late. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Latest of his six wins was in clearcut style in this race last year (good to firm) off 1lb higher, making all; running creditably back on turf this season and looks set for a bold show, but all of today's rivals are either in good form too and/or far less exposed. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His six wins include two over C&D; no match for No More Bolero when second here (2m1f, good to firm) in April, although he is 5lb better off with that rival; fourth of 12 at Ascot (2m, good) four weeks ago and holds place claims. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Regressive on the Flat and has 0-8 strike-rate over hurdles; not beaten far when fifth in first-time visor (now removed) on latest Flat start in June and returns to this code on a workable mark but others have more appealing profiles. |
8/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Hasn't won since recording a three-timer in 2024; last of six on return to action at Salisbury (1m4f, good) last month when favourite; has dropped to a career-low mark and first-time visor goes on; may be worth another chance. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has won his last two (at about 2m), beating a subsequent winner at Worcester and then nicely on top in the finish here four weeks ago; that was in a small field but they went a good clip and this far will suit; up 4lb for last time. |
7/2 |

1st 4 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Race-fit off the Flat when a battling winner over a little shorter at Worcester a month ago (visor back on) and looks a good thing to give his running once more off 4lb higher; respected. |
5/4 |
|
1st 2 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Easy winner over hurdles at Ludlow (2m, good) last November and he recorded his fourth Flat win when scoring at Bath (2m1f, good to firm) in April; wasn't beaten far back there 12 days ago and he still has potential for further progress in this sphere; interesting contender back over hurdles. |

5th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Back off the same mark as when making all at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last September when in the care of Jamie Osborne, but not at his best lately and similar tactics won't be easy in this field. |
11/1 |
|
7th 7 (6) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Sole success came on AW at Wolverhampton last September when trained by Jamie Osborne; flattered by his finishing position when fourth of ten at Goodwood (1m6f, good) last month and finished last of six subsequently at Yarmouth (1m6f, good); cheekpieces are introduced for the first time and needs more. |
12/1 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made all to win a 1m6f handicap at Wolverhampton for Jamie Osborne last September; unplaced in two hurdle runs for this yard but he didn't run badly returned to the Flat at Goodwood 19 days ago (1m6f, good); down in class today and should have a big run in him. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten less than 10l in the German Derby last year; nowhere near that form for Marco Botti or Jamie Osborne but getting back on slower ground could help. |
14/1 |
|
8th 2 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-German, beaten less than 10l in the German Derby last year; nowhere near that form in two starts for Marco Botti and similar story on his three outings for this yard; gelded before his front-running fourth of ten at Nottingham (1m2f) on Wednesday on handicap debut. |
9/1 |
|
4th 6 (4) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ex-German; well held in two maidens for Marco Botti last year and a similar story in two novice events for this stable; gelded since last seen in February and has cheekpieces back on for his handicap debut, so he's worth keeping an eye on in the betting. |
