26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
4-6 in handicaps and looked a natural over the minimum trip at Sandown 34 days ago, leading over 3f out and in no danger after (backed into favouritism when taking on his elders for the first time); 6lb rise justified; dual C&D winner who can be seriously involved. |
4/1 |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
3yo who won his first three handicaps (6f, turf/AW) and bounced back from heavy Ascot defeat (6f, good) with respectable fourth at Kempton (6f, AW) latest; he has plenty of speed and this first crack at 5f is well worth a go. |
9/2 |

Ended his 2yo campaign with a Leicester nursery win; further progress with his two C&D wins in early April; well beaten in a big-field Ascot handicap in his bid for a four-timer last month; career-best effort required. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Running consistently all season and the handicapper continues to give him every chance (5lb lower than when last successful); ran well on his only previous start here too but he's ultimately made a career of getting beaten at short prices. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Unplaced on last two starts but hasn't run badly and he's 4lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (good) in June; capable of having a big say. |
4/1 |
|
4th 6 (2) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Unbeaten (2-2) under Oisin Murphy until finding traffic in the Windsor race he'd won last summer a fortnight ago; unlikely he'd have won there but he's consistent, fine round here and on a winning mark, so is one to consider. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Well suited by 5f on quick ground; two runs for new stable, finishing third at Sandown last month before winning at Newmarket three weeks ago; 3lb rise still leaves him feasibly weighted. |
5/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
6yo who is well handicapped on last season's best efforts for Michael Bell and made quite an encouraging start for his new yard when third of seven at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago, particularly as he was tight for room against the rail; given a chance to build on that with Billy Loughnane taking the reins this time. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
6yo who is well handicapped on last season's best efforts for Michael Bell; however, it was a winless campaign and he failed to threaten at Yarmouth in April on his sole run this year; changed hands for 18,500gns last month and he needs to get back on track on this stable debut. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Stable's quiet year has seen him plummet down the weights and he is now on an extremely tempting mark; didn't run badly at Sandown four weeks ago and he has run well in all three visits to Newcastle; shortlisted. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
He won three times over 5f last August-October and is 8lb below his last winning mark; drops back in trip today but he's finished down the field on all five starts this season and has plenty to prove. |
9/1 |
|
9th 6 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Six-time winner who went close here (5f, heavy) in September; yet to get going this term but there is the slightest suspicion he's potentially running into form; attractively handicapped and not completely dismissed at likely rewarding odds. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Off the mark in C&D handicap (good) in May but has failed to back it up twice since, including here; bounce back needed with Toby Moore taking 7lb off. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Merely sixth of eight at Goodwood last month but his two best performances have coincided with his two visits to Sandown, including a C&D win (good) in May; this lightly raced 3yo is firmly in calculations back here. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Three turf wins (fast ground) since rejoining Tony Carroll, one of them coming over C&D; up in the weights as a result and the recent rain will suit others more. |
12/1 |

6th 7 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Hold-up performer who won two in a row in May (5.7f/6f, good to firm) before keeping on for fifth of 13 at Windsor (5f, good to firm), and he was back on the scoresheet at Bath (5.7f, firm) three weeks ago; the return to a bare 5f may not be ideal but the stiff track compensates; respected. |
11/4 |
|
1st 1 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to Tony Carroll and left a couple of quiet AW runs behind when scoring over C&D (beat She Went Whoosh by nearly 3l) and at Brighton (6f) in May; came up short in hat-trick bid at Windsor on Monday but was out of his comfort zone early over the bare 5f before plugging on into fifth; not dismissed if turned out quickly. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Windsor (5f, good to firm) in May and second at Bath (5f, firm) next time; the track may not have suited at Brighton last time and he could bounce back with a big run. |
7/1 |
|
6th 6 (5) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Running well in turf handicaps this summer, following his success at Windsor (5f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time) with a good second (winner gone in again since) at Bath (5f, firm) two weeks later; up in grade but could well have more to offer. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the tenth attempt (first in cheekpieces) when keeping on strongly to win at Windsor 15 days ago (Danger Alert fourth and Over Spiced fifth); up 5lb but still unexposed in the context of this field. |
9/4 |
