9st 12lb |
Often leads; showed high-class form on good to firm ground last summer, runner-up in the Group 3 Jersey (7f) at this meeting, then involved in a tight finish for third place in the Group 1 July Cup at Newmarket (6f) despite racing away from the main action for much of the way; had some excuses later but he was back on track when a close second in a 6f Listed race at Salisbury recently; can go well from rail draw. |

9st 7lb |
Highly tried after trouncing Almeraq in a Yarmouth novice (6f, good to firm; receiving 7lb) last June, finishing second in the Jersey Stakes nine days later and not beaten far in the July Cup the following month; finished his 3yo campaign quietly but possible he'll kick on again this year. |

Posted a personal best when a close seventh to No Half Measures in the July Cup at Newmarket, but hasn't repeated the form in two runs since (both at 7f); faces a stern assignment, even if returning to his peak, but at least this drop back to sprint distances looks a positive move. |

9st 9lb |
These big-field 6f handicaps suit him down to the ground, and having finished fourth in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood (good to soft) and the Portland at Doncaster (extended 5f, good) he led home 24 rivals in the Ayr Gold Cup (soft) last September; mostly in good form at Meydan this year but he's 10lb higher than at Ayr which is a big burden to carry. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Several good efforts in defeat against top 6f handicappers this year but he never shifted much in the weights and the return to soft ground may have made the difference when he made nearly all to win the Ayr Gold Cup recently; serious rain would bring him into the reckoning. |

Yet to win this year but he's run some mighty races in defeat, in the frame in the Stewards' Cup and last week's Portland (only run out of second in the closing stages); should run his race again but there will probably be a few stronger. |

9st 9lb |
The talking horse in good 6f handicaps this spring and he delivered, coming clear with no fuss under Oisin Murphy at Newmarket (good) on yard debut and not having to work much harder under a penalty there (good to firm) in May for Shane Foley; 10lb higher than last time but could be on his way to better things. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Promising for Charles Hills as a 3yo, winning a C&D handicap at the Craven meeting before a good third from a tricky draw at York; ended 2025 with a low-key run at Ascot but, having been switched to Andrew Balding's stable, he created a huge impression here 17 days ago, supported as though defeat was out of the question and winning accordingly; 8lb well in and looks a Group horse in waiting; obvious chance for the stable that won this prize in 2021 and 2024. |

Progressive sort for Charles Hills until disappointing in September on last appearance; commenced last season with two wins, including over C&D at this meeting, and warrants plenty of respect back here on debut for Andrew Balding with a resumption of improvement possible. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Classy in his prime when winning a Group 2 at the Curragh (6f, good; acts on good to firm) in May 2024; only intermittently raced since owing to physical issues and his latest comeback, at Doncaster in March, ended badly; however, he's had a second wind surgery since and is now tongue tied, so judgement suspended with his trainer bullish ahead of this first handicap run. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 1 |

Pounced late under Jamie Spencer to snatch Curragh Group 2 (6f, good) in May 2024, but has raced only three times since, last seen finishing a respectable second in AW Listed event at Lingfield in February 2025; others carry fewer risks but he's no forlorn hope if ready to roll after 419 days off. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Respectable C&D form last September when third of 19 but he's been at his most impressive on flatter tracks so far, as when crushing his rivals at Ayr (good to soft) and York (good) as a 3yo; returned to action with a mighty effort on the latter track in May, when only just failing to reel in a well-treated front-runner; major chance if reproducing the form back here, despite going up 5lb since, as his star is still rising. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Promising 3yo last season and things clicked in a major way with a dominant win in a big-field C&D handicap (good) last October when last seen; he's entered in the Group 1 Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot and this lightly raced sort is in excellent hands to continue to progress; strong contender. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Patiently ridden 3yo who won in good style at Ayr (6f, good to soft) in July and was anything but disgraced after a slow start when sixth of 25 in the Silver Cup there three weeks ago; gives the impression there's still more in the tank and he'll be dangerous if getting the breaks. |

9st 7lb |
Outstripped his previous form when winning a valuable 7f handicap here (good; effective on good to firm) last July before winning the 6f Stewards' Cup at Goodwood (good to soft) by a healthy margin under a penalty next time; shade vulnerable once reassessed and a narrow win at Meydan in January wasn't enough to think he's well treated for this race; extra push needed. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Had some season to have already bagged an International (C&D, good) and the Stewards' Cup (6f, good to soft); he might not be done yet as he was beaten under a length at the Ebor meeting and then never nearer than at the finish after starting slowly in the Ayr Gold Cup; may have little margin for error off current mark but can see him running well. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
One Newmarket blip aside it has been a fine season for him, winning big pots in successive weekends in July/August, the International at Ascot (7f, good) and an emphatic one in the Stewards' Cup (6f, good to soft); another solid effort when close up in fourth behind Northern Ticker at the Ebor meeting four weeks ago, making up a lot of ground in the penultimate furlong; this stiffer test should suit and in the thick of it if the ground proves suitable (disappointed in one run on soft but it was a farcical contest). |

Took a step forward on the AW earlier in the year, at 7f and 6f, but he didn't make his turf debut until never involved in a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good) in May; comes from a line of superb turf sprinters but this is a difficult first handicap on grass, to put it mildly. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |

In good form on the AW this year, winning a handicap at Lingfield (7f) in February and running creditably when fourth in similar event at Newcastle (6f) on Good Friday; has shown he's up to Listed level but this is still a warm race in which to be making his debut on grass. |

Improved as 4yo, narrowly winning the most recent of five starts in Bahrain (6f) and returning to Britain with a somewhat luckless close second at Chester (5f, good) in May to a stablemate; up a total of 10lb for those runs, though, and has much more to prove in this contest. |

A strike-rate of 4-7 on AW includes two Listed wins, at 7f and 6f; not quite so good on grass as yet but he has a 7lb lower turf mark and indicated he could make it pay when an excellent fifth in the big-field Victoria Cup over 7f here (good; has won on good to firm) in May, not ideally positioned there as it turned out; one to consider back at 6f. |

Ties in with Golden Mind on Musselburgh running but the pair of them are facing a stiffer assignment in this major prize; remains useful on turf but a lower mark in this sphere reflects that his peak form, namely dual Listed honours, has been shown on AW. |

Made his name on AW but he can do it on turf when the ground is quick, as when a cosy winner at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in August; has since added a second Listed AW event, at Southwell in November, but the Saudi Arabia venture came to nothing in February and he has ground worries today. |

Up-and-coming handicapper last summer when winning first two starts at this level before finishing an excellent second of 24 in the 5f handicap here (good to firm) last June; first home of the 3yos when fifth in the Ayr Gold Cup (soft) last September and may do better this year; not ruled out now fitted with a tongue-tie on second run back. |

Hooded all starts for this yard; can lead; has had just three runs in 6f handicaps, improving on a respectable effort in the Shergar Cup here when a ready winner at Goodwood (good to firm) last August; not so good on soft ground in the Ayr Gold Cup after and, while he is likely to do better as a 4yo, he was well held in a Listed contest on his comeback. |

Unexposed 3yo; solid effort when third in a Shergar Cup sprint last month and made no mistake in a small field at Goodwood four weeks ago (also 6f, good to firm); penalty in a stronger race asks a big question of him, even though 2lb well in, and this will be the slowest ground he's tackled. |

Looks well treated on this year's AW form but failed to transfer it back to turf (in Group 3) last time when bidding for a 6f hat-trick, and still has a weaker strike-rate in this sphere; bit to prove back at 7f and doesn't look the percentage call. |

Dead-heated with Diligent Harry in Listed grade to complete a Lingfield 6f double in January and take AW record to 4-8; effective when fresh but is by no means certain to transfer the improvement back to turf; only 1-9 in this sphere; tongue-tie applied. |

Back on song when convincing winner of a 6f Listed event at Naas (yielding) last October; unable to get involved in two runs at that level in 2026 but he was badly checked back at Naas in April and in better form than the 5l defeat suggests; however, he has more to prove back on this track with good to firm ground quicker than ideal; regular cheekpieces are discarded. |

Five-time winner best with a bit of cut in the ground; sole win last season came in a Listed heat at this venue (6f, yielding); may have needed his comeback at Cork and likes it here, but would probably like to see some rain. |

All wins over 6f (on soft and good ground) in the autumn months; excelled himself when winning the Ayr Silver Cup (soft) last September but it seems unlikely he will reproduce that form on this belated return. |

Came good last autumn, winning three times, and he confirmed that this is his time of year by posting a personal best to beat his 24 rivals in the Ayr Silver Cup (6f, soft; made all) two weeks ago; hasn't run over 5f since the early part of his 2yo campaign but gives the impression this trip may well suit; well worth his place back in a Listed race and set for a bold show. |

Often leads; ended 2yo season with a flourish, three 6f wins including one at this meeting and a Listed Redcar race (good and soft); has failed to shine this year but conditions are more in his favour today; revival possible; one of three for the yard. |

Has contested three of the last four runnings, doing best when runner-up in 2023 (good to firm; also won a Group 3 over C&D on soft); has been a fine stalwart in other top sprint handicaps, including when only just losing out in the 2024 Portland at Doncaster on sole attempt for Christophe Soumillon; it's hard to ignore one with his history at this level. |

Stable star who runs in this race for the fourth time, recording best results when second in 2024 and third in 2023; went without a win in 2025 but the ability was still intact, second in the Portland (5.6f, good) and an Ascot Group 3 (6f, soft); faced some stiff tasks in the Middle East this year but his second in a Listed race at Jebel Ali (5f, dirt) was promising, finishing with a flourish for second; fair mark back on grass; should run well. |

Missed over a year of his career but returned to action twice since with 6f AW wins, last October and in April; well beaten on heavy in between but fared better at Goodwood (6f, good) in May when going down narrowly to Far Above Dream; has potential but others have more solid form; cheekpieces go on. |

Made favourite but lacked experience when tackling the 5f handicap here last June; better form when winning at Haydock (6f, good to soft) last September and, after a low-key reappearance at Newmarket, he impressed when winning at Carlisle (6f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) recently; 1lb well in under a penalty; looks a smart prospect. |

Lightly raced 4yo with something of an all-or-nothing profile; put everything together when bolting up at Haydock (6f, good to soft) last autumn; might have needed the run when only ninth of 13 at Newmarket on reappearance; leading claims if building on that and cheekpieces may give him a lift. |

Listed winner in France; mostly rather vulnerable in handicaps for this yard, including over C&D in May, but he didn't get much of a run behind Fandom at Thirsk (good) next time and confirmed he was on the way back when leading near the line at Goodwood (also 6f, soft) two weeks ago; has quite a bit more to do under a penalty (3lb badly in). |

Finished strongly from a difficult position in 5f contest at York last time and nearly got up, looking in need of a return to further; however, he may find this stiff 7f too much of a stretch and still needs to prove he can win over distances other than 6f. |
