19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Won 1m2f handicap at this meeting in 2023 and has also tasted the high life in top hurdle races; attentions were turned back to the Flat for four races (UAE and Saudi Arabia) this January-March and he wasn't in peak form, but edged down the weights as a result and this drop back in trip can help. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Not in top form since returned to the Flat but solid hurdles record (1121322) suggests a resurgence is likely; ran creditably, albeit fortunate to finish second the way things panned out, in the Champion Hurdle when last seen in this sphere; has the best chance at the weights. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Third in this race last year off 11lb lower; competitive almost every time last season, ending on a major high with 4l win at Haydock (1m4f, good) in July; however, there have been a couple of blips and last month's poor show in Listed race at Kempton was one of those; needs to bounce back. |

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. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Short-headed on 2024 reappearance and won it last year; thrived last season when winning three races and not far away in the other three, including at this track; highly respected for that campaign, and first-time-out record, but the handicapper reacted and he now needs to resume improvement. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
A two-time 1m4f scorer in 2025; returned from a spell in Meydan with a solid fifth of 12 in 1m3f handicap at Carlisle four weeks ago; not out of things with Billy Loughnane now up. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |

Campaigned in the UAE this winter, last seen finishing tailed off at Meydan; still 4lb higher than for his last win in Britain and probably best watched after three months off. |

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. |
9/4 |

2nd 2 (5) |
26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Improved for June's debut (1m2f) when second and recording a very useful RPR at Doncaster (also good to firm) the following month; wasn't overly impressive when off the mark at cramped odds at Ffos Las (also 1m4f, good to soft) four weeks ago but did look better the further he went and this step up in trip is surely a positive; handicap debut. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Won 1m4f/2m handicaps on the AW (3-36 on turf) earlier this year but this is a different ball game altogether and his run at Carlisle 17 days ago was no more than average; plenty of others appeal more. |

Durable veteran who won twice on the AW early this year; however, he was soundly beaten at Newcastle on Good Friday and faces some unexposed rivals on his return to turf. |

9st 2lb
|
Reserve; form figures 121 at 1m4f on good to firm last May-August (not at this meeting) on his only appearances at Ascot; in career-best form over 1m4f at Epsom (good/soft) on his latest two outings, which sees him raised another 4lb today and into a much better race, but he's one to consider. |
33/1 |

2nd 9 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Finished fifth in this last year and it was just his second visit to Epsom when impressively landing the five-runner Great Metropolitan over C&D (good) in April; 4lb rise (arguably could have been worse) pushes him into uncharted territory but he has won on good to soft and is a player under Billy Loughnane. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Acts on good to soft, unraced on soft; fit from AW and hurdling when good second of seven at Redcar (1m2f) five weeks ago, keeping on strongly; up 2lb and into a better race but needs a second look. |
18/1 |

2nd 2 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Caught wide when down the field at Lingfield in February on last Flat start and when well beaten over hurdles on his last two runs he was contesting hot 4yo races; on a competitive mark on last summer's Flat form and he was a Listed hurdle runner-up in October; not ruled out back in this code. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who bagged some valuable course experience in winning narrowly over C&D last month; the runner-up had been jumping, but this 145,000euros yearling had a bit in hand and surely has more to give off a 4lb higher mark. |
100/30 |

1st 3 (9) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the fourth attempt in a maiden at Brighton (7f, good to firm) last September and he reappeared with a close second on last month's handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW); that latest form reads well and this unexposed 4yo is a major player up 2lb. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Inconsistent in his seven handicaps but he's won two of them; gelded before his successful return at Southwell (1m3f, AW) three weeks ago, when asserting by about 2l in six-runner race; 4lb higher today but probably okay on turf and has to be considered seriously. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who won his first two starts for this yard; took four runs to get going this term but he was strong in the betting when cashing in on a reduced mark at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; handicapper has wasted no time putting him back to this career-high mark, though. |
16/1 |

1st 4 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Did well last spring and was placed five consecutive times last summer/autumn; now well handicapped on those exploits but beaten upwards of 8l on all four outings this year; can't rule out a revival but hard to be confident. |
