10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has plenty of handicapping experience but better than ever when winning quite convincingly over C&D (good to firm) recently; on a career-high mark against stronger opposition but it's not too late for him to do better. |
9/2 |

1st 4 (4) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Resumed winning ways at Yarmouth (6f) in May but he's twice failed to build on it, only seventh of 11 at Ascot (6f) 17 days ago; needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
7th 7 (13) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two 6f wins last year and registered a third when coming out on top in a good tussle at Yarmouth (good to firm) in late May; up to this grade and caught a little wide when last of seven at Salisbury ten days ago, however. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Came up well short in series final (Class 2) at Windsor last time; knocking at the door otherwise this season but may ideally need a drop back in grade. |
14/1 |
|
12th 7 (15) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins on AW; 0-9 on grass but cheekpieces seem to have bucked him up of late and he was very close to breaking his turf duck at Salisbury before making late inroads into Another Abbot's lead over this C&D last time; weighted to be thereabouts with that one and can't be ruled out. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Scored twice (5f/6f) on AW in 2025 and in excellent form of late since the cheekpieces went on, beaten a nose in 6f Salisbury handicap last time; must enter calculations nudged up 1lb with the headgear retained. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Turned over at long odds-on at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) on his return from a year on the sidelines; finished just in front of Dandana when third at Windsor on last month's handicap debut; still has time to deliver a bigger performance. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 13 (12) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Impressive debut C&D winner last May; having first run for 12 months and only second run since when an odds-on second of eight in 6f Doncaster novice last month; travelled strongly long way there, so remains with a fair bit of potential now handicapping. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Absent and gelded since finishing 4l second to the market leader at Carlisle (6f, soft) a year ago when attempting to follow up his Windsor success (6f, good); sets the form standard on reappearance and, assuming all is fine, still has potential to boot. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Landed 6f novices at Kempton and Ripon before posting an excellent fourth in York's Lowther Stakes last August; down the field on her return but fared much better when fourth at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago; yard going well and the fitting of a tongue-tie may help; key player. |
8/1 |
|
4th 8 (11) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Landed 6f novices at Kempton and Ripon before posting an excellent fourth in York's Lowther Stakes last August; off nine months and well held on her return in 6f York handicap last month; should strip fitter here. |
20/1 |
|
11th 3 (8) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won 6f novice events at Kempton and Ripon on her first two starts and ran a creditable race when fourth in the Group 2 Lowther Stakes over C&D last August; flopped on soft ground when last seen 265 days ago but that is easy enough to excuse; still has time to do better. |

9st 11lb |
Progressive sort who notched a third victory of 2026 at Lingfield (5f) in June; went very freely from widest draw and did well in circumstances when fifth of 13 in 6f Windsor handicap last time; a player eased 1lb. |
11/1 |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

Enjoying an excellent season since switching to Adam Kirby and notched a third success at Lingfield (5f) in June; nearest finish after a slow start when a good fifth of 12 in 5f York handicap last time and he's a player back up in trip now. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Four course wins, the latest off 2lb higher over this trip in February; found valuable series final at Windsor too competitive last month but he's of interest back here, despite his wide draw. |
10/1 |
|
11th 15 (3) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
One turf win from 15 attempts, in a four-runner race at Chepstow (5f) last July; two fair C&D runs since returned to turf in May and was out on a limb when finishing sixth to Another Abbot and Sudden Flight 14 days ago; however, he'll do well to win at this level off his current mark. |

Never easily knocked when competing here; had no excuses behind a couple of these 12 days ago but ran his usual sold race; has won on slow and fast ground. |
10/1 |
|
4th 9 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Form dipped slightly when never-dangerous favourite in Class 3 here three weeks ago, following two seconds and a win (all also C&D) on previous three starts; back to Class 4 and, like most of these, has each-way claims. |
7/1 |
|
7th 14 (7) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
In excellent form of late and ended a long losing run with a deserved fourth C&D win in eight-runner contest a week ago; very much one to consider under a 4lb penalty with Oisin Murphy again up. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Progressive for William Haggas last spring; dropped to 5f at Newmarket two weeks ago and he ran on well to win in Class 4 company; up 3lb in a better race but he could have more to offer at this distance. |
8/1 |
|
1st 2 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Completed 6f hat-trick for William Haggas in spring 2025; midfield on both starts for new stable this summer but looked unlucky not to finish close to the target here (6f, good to firm; denied clear run) a week ago and has possibilities if suited by this drop in trip. |
13/2 |
|
5th 2 (10) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Completed a 6f hat-trick last spring but signed off for William Haggas with last of 13 at Newcastle in November; had been gelded before racing too freely on his stable debut/reappearance 19 days ago; that should have knocked some freshness out of him and he's back on his last winning mark. |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Thrown in on his 3yo best, notably a 6f win at Ascot (good to soft) 12 months ago when 11lb higher; 2026 campaign has been underwhelming though and others look stronger for the win. |
20/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Four-time winner (5f/6f) but he's 0-8 since joining this stable; below his best in recent starts but now drops down in grade, albeit with stamina to prove for this longer trip; others more persuasive. |
16/1 |
|
9th 7 (3) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
A two-time 6f scorer (including over C&D) for Paul Attwater last summer; yet to hit that form for his current handler, though, only tenth in 5f Ascot handicap last time; more is required despite a falling mark. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Dual 6f winner in 2025; regressive in 2026, tenth of 13 at Windsor last time on first run after wind surgery; very best form is over further but he has fallen below his last winning mark and Seamus Cronin's claim is a plus. |
16/1 |
|
10th 1 (6) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Two-time 6f scorer in 2025; failed to build on an encouraging reappearance Newbury fourth when eighth of ten at Ascot (6f) in May; has since undergone wind surgery, so can't be ruled out off a handy-looking mark. |
14/1 |
|
8th 4 (8) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Ran well on C&D return in 2025 before winning his next two over 6f, at Leicester (good to firm; made all) and York; his form took a downward turn after but his recent Newbury fourth was a step in the right direction and he's only 2lb higher than for the York win; looks good for a prominent show. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Conditions no problem and he ran creditably for third at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) last month; this is tougher but more minor money could be on the cards. |

|
3rd 4 (5) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
In good form at Windsor early in the summer but a couple of below-par efforts since, including back there; wants a proper test over an easy 5f and will need to bounce back to his best off this mark. |

11th 11 (1) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
A fairly useful 5f scorer for Michael Appleby; shaped well for her new yard when placed in 5f handicaps at Wolverhampton and Nottingham in the spring but beat only one over C&D in May; freshened up since and no surprise to see her play a prominent role. |
14/1 |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Campaigned mostly over 5f; successful three times for previous yard and beaten only half a length in both starts for new stable, while leaving the impression this return to 6f is perhaps worth exploring; in-form filly who warrants respect. |
2/1 |

3rd 4 (9) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Three turf wins, including over C&D, for previous yard; close second to Layla Liz when favourite at Wolverhampton (5f) on AW/stable/seasonal debut, doing well having come from a difficult position; could well reverse the placings and go one better. |

Very useful 6f AW scorer at his best; not so good nowadays but signed off for James Fanshawe with a fair third of six in 7f Wolverhampton handicap in April; more is required for new stable on a rare turf start. |

Won the Listed Golden Rose at Lingfield in November 2023 and landed a valuable 6f Class 2 handicap here (off 106) the following summer; has finally slipped back down the weights, giving notice of a return to form (third) in an added visor at Lingfield (7f) 51 days ago; respected. |
