3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Third good handicap win of an excellent summer when shading a tight finish in 20-runner event at the York Ebor meeting (6f, good to soft; acts on good to firm); creditable fourth of 24 at the Curragh (6f, yielding) since; below par in two previous attempts over 7f but the way he saw it out when successful over an extended 6f at the Curragh earlier in the year provides hope that this flat 7f should be within range; his form is more than good enough to be highly competitive at Listed level. |

10st 4lb |
Scurry win (beating Dark Thirty) in July came over slightly further off 98, and most recently recorded seventh career win when landing a big pot at York last month (Coul Angel third) on good-to-soft; still improving 5yo up 16lb this season but has to be respected. |

1st 2 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
His career has been one of steady but consistent progress; won at Epsom (6f, soft) and the Currragh (6.2f, good to firm) this season and ran a sound race in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood, perhaps finding that sharp test on fast ground inadequate; can't call upon course form but the weather has turned in his favour and he has another major handicap in him. |

Impressive Newmarket win in May 2025 saw him hit hard by the handicapper and he hasn't added to it; mixed results this year, the standout when second at Epsom (6f, soft) in June; out the back in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time and others look safer. |

His impressive Newmarket success last May saw him hit hard by the handicapper and he hasn't added to it; chasing home Sondad at Epsom (6f, soft) in June represented his best run of the year but he failed to build on it at Windsor last time; others look safer. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |

6yo who has been campaigned over further for the majority of his career but he's been a progressive sprinter this season, finishing third in a Group 3 at Sandown (5f, good) on July 4 then runner-up in Group 2 at the Curragh (5f, good to firm) last time; however, this tougher race demands more. |

Ten career wins include 2023 Scurry Handicap here and has added lesser events this year at Leicester and Hamilton, also Epsom fourth to Sondad on soft; not as same level at Goodwood latest but not one to dismiss. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

8yo who can be in and out but he won at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in April and has run well in defeat on his last two starts, at Epsom (6f, soft) and Newcastle (6f, AW); he was a close second of 14 last time and this C&D winner can be in the mix if he's once more on a going day. |

9st 9lb |
Gained reward for some fine efforts on turf in recent months when winning 5f Ascot handicap (good to firm; also won on good to soft) a fortnight ago; raised 4lb to a clear career-high mark but he should give another good account of himself. |
9/2 |

1st 2 (6) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
He has enjoyed more success on AW than turf but has run well in both visits to Ascot, finishing third of 12 four weeks ago; Billy Loughnane booked and he's likely to make a bold bid but he could help tee this up for one of the finishers. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; ran right up to his best when second of ten in a Shergar Cup race over C&D (good to firm) four weeks ago; did best of those drawn in double figures at York 17 days ago and should give another good account. |

Won by 4l last Saturday to complete a Lingfield turf double; raised a whopping 12lb but is still well treated on best form, which includes close second (off 4lb higher) in this contest in 2025; fighting chance. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Ex-Irish 7yo who had a much higher mark this time last year; well backed all day and on course when winning over C&D 12 days ago, and there's every chance he can defy a 3lb rise under Ashley Lewis, who has plenty of experience for his 3lb claim in this company. |

Back to form when taking advantage of a reduced mark at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) in June; well beaten at Chester (6f) next time but good ground offers a plausible excuse and this stiff 5f will suit; confidence would increase with every drop of rain. |

Returned to form with a bang when a well-backed winner in first-time blinkers (retained since) in the Ayr Bronze Cup (6f, soft) last month; unplaced at Ripon (6f, good) eight days later but back on song when second at Ayr (6f, heavy) last week; well worth another crack at 5f; high on the list. |

8th 7 (9) |
26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Winner of the last two runnings of this; back to form with a bang in first-time blinkers (retained) when landing the Bronze Cup at Ayr (6f) one week ago; back up 5lb but he holds major claims off the same mark as when scoring here 12 months ago. |

He enjoyed his finest hour over this C&D when winning the 2023 Wokingham off a 20lb higher mark; he hasn't won since and his second over C&D in May on his seasonal/stable debut hasn't been a springboard to better things; others look safer. |

Having dropped down the weights he was a close second at Ascot (6f, good) in May on his stable/seasonal debut, and perhaps the soft ground didn't suit at Epsom last time; not written off but this 8yo has been regressive and remains without a win since June 2023. |

Six wins at 6f on good to soft and soft; finished his race off on the front foot at York's Ebor meeting, on first start for 11 weeks, and this mark shouldn't be beyond him; the more rain the better for him and he's an interesting contender. |

The winner of three of his five starts in cheekpieces, including a smooth success at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) on return in March; failed to fire at Epsom (6f, soft; behind Sondad) 11 weeks ago but this stablemate of Evening Saigon shouldn't be passed over lightly. |

Not much has gone right this season, including when well backed on his return to the AW last time (always trapped deep at Lingfield); currently 3-7 on Tapeta and is well handicapped now, so needs considering for a yard that also saddles Michaela's Boy. |

Currently 4-8 on the AW and 1-1 on Polytrack (C&D); not a lot has gone right this season and he switches from turf on an attractive mark; will need some luck from a wide stall but is one to consider for a trainer who also runs Michaela's Boy. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Rarely seen on a downhill track but ran a corking race in Group 3 over C&D as 2yo; often well below best in 2026 but intermittent flashes of form have lightened the gloom, including when a close fourth at Pontefract (5f, good to firm; first-time visor, retained) latest; on the risky side overall. |
