15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
In-form 4yo who won at Ascot and Pontefract (both 1m, good to firm) in July; another creditable effort when third (Jungle Ruler second) at Sandown (1m, good to firm again) 17 days ago; ought to be competitive again. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Bang-in-form 4yo who comes here after emphatic wins under Seamus Cronin at Ascot and Pontefract (both 1m, good to firm) this month; competes off career-high mark but must be considered in current mood. |

1st 2 (3) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Gained a deserved first win since 2024 in 1m apprentices' handicap at Ascot a week ago, when well on top at the finish; escapes a penalty and is able to race off 2lb lower than last time, so he's very hard to side against. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
His first win came over 7f (soft) but better at 1m now, getting up late to win on Wolverhampton AW when making his yard debut in January and finding only a subsequent winner too good at Ascot last month; out of sorts at Redcar since though and reverts to 7f with something to prove. |
7/1 |

9th 4 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Caused 33-1 surprise on stable debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in January and rebounded from lesser effort when second over the straight 1m at Ascot (good to firm; winner followed up soon afterwards) last month; considered. |
7/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |

Sprang a 33-1 surprise on stable debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in January, and back to form when second at Ascot (1m, good to firm) two weeks ago; should be thereabouts. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Both wins were at 1m2f in 2024; good third off a reduced mark at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month but he was only fourth of six over C&D last time; that took his overall record to 2-32 and others are preferred. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins at 1m2f in 2024 but he has run well over this C&D and, after a slow start to the year, he showed more when a close third of eight at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last week; on the premises again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (4) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Placed in three of his four starts here, including when third in this race last year; after a poor start to this term he showed more three weeks ago and has dropped 4lb since; not ruled out despite the losing run racking up. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Two wins from ten starts over C&D include a success in April off 3lb lower; didn't look in a great mood at Ascot last time but he still ran well to finish fairly close fourth; not ruled out. |
8/1 |
|
4th 2 (1) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Five-time turf winner who matched that tally on the AW when landing Kempton handicap (1m) in April; never a threat over that C&D last Thursday and it's been a while since he won off a mark this high. |
6/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in April and he went close on Polytrack and turf in his next two starts; didn't really fire at Newmarket (1m, good) last time but he still looks on a workable mark and has claims if he can get back near best. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) and Thirsk (1m, good to firm) in the spring and he got back to his best when going very close over C&D two weeks ago; only 1lb higher and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Doubled his tally on turf with big-field amateur riders' win at Doncaster (good to soft) in March and he scored again at Thirsk (also 1m, good to firm) in May; was better than ever with those wins but he's not threatened in his last three starts and he's still 5lb higher than for his last success; others are more persuasive. |
7/1 |
|
5th 8 (6) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Better than ever this term; doubled his tally on turf with big-field amateur riders' win at Doncaster (good to soft) in March and he scored again at Thirsk (also 1m, good to firm) in May; back in form when fourth at Goodwood last month and Jack Callan gets on well with him; yard going well; player. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Scored over C&D (good to firm) in September and was also on target at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in April; recent efforts have been respectable and he holds each-way claims at least. |
13/2 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf and remains on a career-high mark, so seems up against it; however, consistent record (12233) at Windsor includes a good effort (neck second) in this contest last year; solid contender back here. |
5/1 |
|
6th 7 (3) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Steadily progressive since handicapping and it was a personal best when landing 9.5f AW handicap in April; back on turf with solid third of ten off this career-high mark at Windsor (1m, good to firm) one month later and he may still be capable of better. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-time AW winner and the latest three have been over C&D; has mixed record for new trainer this season but he was runner-up at Southwell last time and remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for his win here in May; key player. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Seven-time AW winner who has four wins and a second to his name in five starts in 7f Tapeta handicaps; the drop back from 1m and switch from turf both look in his favour off his last winning mark. |
7/1 |
|
7th 3 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has seven AW wins to his name, the latest at Kempton (7f) in May, but he's 0-14 on turf; solid fourth in this race last year, however, and latest sixth of 14 (1m, AW; hampered) suggests he can play a part again. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
The season started well but this front-runner has dropped away tamely in his last three races, albeit strong handicaps; this might not be so challenging and could go well if getting any freedom up front. |
14/1 |
|
8th 1 (2) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Made all at Yarmouth (good to firm) on his April return and it was a fine effort when third at Newbury (also 1m2f, good) a fortnight later; couldn't maintain his lead in better events subsequently but this drop back in grade should see him last longer. |
11/2 |
|
11th 10 (9) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Made it 2-5 when making all in Yarmouth handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his reappearance in April; creditable third at Newbury the following month but he flopped when joint-favourite at Redcar last time; has bit to prove again after that and he could have competition for the lead back on AW. |
