18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Record is 3-10; gelded prior to reappearance success at Kempton (7f, AW; looked better than ever) and had an excuse (raced in unfavoured group) when never landing a blow in the Victoria Cup over C&D since; could go well, provided this race pans out better. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Low-mileage 4yo who was gelded prior to justifying favouritism with 1l success at Kempton (7f) on AW/seasonal debut, opening his handicap account and taking overall record to 3-9; this Wathnan Racing runner may well be capable of further improvement; ties in closely with Mudbir on Sandown running last July; major contender. |

Listed runner-up for Ger Lyons last May (7f, good) but well beaten on final two starts for that yard and same story on last month's stable debut in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot; may be best watched for now. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Formerly trained by Ger Lyons; placed a few times over 6f/7f in Listed grade but posted duck eggs at Royal Ascot 2025 and in valuable Irish handicap in his last two appearances; sold for 80,000gns since; hood fitted; enough to prove on debut for new yard. |

Won a 7f conditions event at Newmarket last April and paid the price with the handicapper as a result; left James Owen for 52,000gns last October; well beaten in both runs for David O'Meara but in ultra-competitive Ascot handicaps; sneaking down the weights and the type to pop up at some point soon. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Proved rather difficult to place last term after a reappearance win that did major damage to his mark; perhaps needed the run when 40-1 in the Victoria Cup over C&D on stable/seasonal debut but is best watched unless the market signals suggest he'll take a step forward. |

Improved for a step up to 7f last season; made a slow start to this campaign but he had a wind operation in June and returned to form with a win at Chepstow (7f, good to firm; blinkered first time) last week; penalty in a much stronger race asks a stiffer question. |

Four wins from 14 starts, the most recent when dead-heating at Southwell (7f, AW) in October; struggled on his first three starts this year but didn't shape badly at Newbury (7f, good to soft; first start since wind surgery) three weeks ago; drops in grade with blinkers added. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Quite a useful sort but has a stronger record at Meydan than on home soil and his limitations were rather exposed, even allowing for a tricky draw, in the Britannia at this meeting 12 months ago; wears first-time tongue-tie; something to prove back in a British race. |

Dual winner at 1m who was dropped back down to 7f when he scored at Newmarket (good) in May; stayed on for third over that trip on the July course a fortnight ago so this first start at 6f is something of a surprise. |

Not straightforward but he is a capable performer on his day and he landed his first turf success when beating Silver Ghost on the Rowley course six weeks ago, again hanging right under pressure but full value for the neck winning margin; up 3lb but has the ability to feature. |

Arrives in good form having won at Goodwood (7f, good) then made the frame in competitive field at Epsom (7f, good to soft); however, he remains on a career-high mark and has to concede weight all round. |

Two C&D wins, the latest when completing a hat-trick last July (good to firm), and he won at Goodwood (7f, good) a fortnight ago; could be bang there if handling the forecast slow ground (mixed messages in his form). |

Useful 2yo, including a 1m AW win; good second in a local Group 2 in Qatar in February and followed that with a Listed second at Lingfield two weeks later (both 7f); back up to 1m for his handicap debut; unexposed but has an eight-month break to overcome. |

Down the field in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) last month but promising reappearance there (7f, good) previously; won this race in 2021 (good to soft) and 2024 (good to soft) and was third last year (good to soft); this week's rain has been in his favour and he's on a dangerous mark. |

Progressive British raider arrives in excellent form; notched up successive handicap wins at Windsor (1m, gd-fm) and York (7f, good) and another fine effort on latest at Epsom (7f, gd-sft) when a neck runner-up off 85; 5lb higher here so will need to improve again but that's not impossible; top rider booked. |

Beaten on his last 15 starts going back to May 2024 and only eighth on both starts this season; however, the latest result doesn't tell the whole story as he suffered a frustrating passage in the home straight at Chester; well handicapped on last season's best and he's one to consider. |

Gained his final win for previous yard and sole placed effort for current stable over 7f; overall record at this trip is 2-5; gelded prior to never landing a blow in another 6f event on seasonal debut; could go well, with this step back up in distance a plausible plus. |

Showed his effectiveness over a straight 1m when beaten a nose in the 2025 Lincoln at Doncaster (good to soft) and he's now 3lb lower; several respectable efforts afterwards, and 6f on good ground was probably too sharp on his sole outing in Bahrain over the winter; certainly well handicapped on best form and well worth a market check after 106 days off. |

Dual winner for Aidan O'Brien in his early days; his three wins this year have all been in claimers at Dundalk (6f-1m) but he travelled smoothly before winning with plenty in hand last time; with another new yard now but he remains well treated on old form and is not ruled out back in a handicap. |
