13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Creditable third in both starts since making a successful reappearance; remains in form but is getting no respite from the assessor, as another 1lb rise reflects; has done all her winning off marks in the 60s. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 (4) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Course winner who made a successful reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April and again ran well to finish third of seven in a 0-90 back there last month (fourth and fifth won next time); up another 1lb, but still of serious interest back at this level and has won over this trip on the AW. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Consistent 6yo who was beaten under 1l when fourth of eight at Chester (extended 1m4f, good) 12 days ago and will be fine over this shorter trip; likely to be on the premises again. |
4/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Registered his last win off 1lb higher at Windsor a year ago; consistent since, mostly making the frame; successful in two of his last three attempts in Class 5; solid claims back down in grade. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Scored over 8.5f here (good) last summer and kept on for respectable fourth at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) on latest Flat start in May; returns to this code on a workable mark and after a recent second over hurdles; likely contender. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 2 |
15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Three-time Flat winner (1m-1m2f; good or quicker) who returns to hurdles after two fair Flat efforts following wind surgery; took a step forward when a promising fourth on handicap hurdle debut at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in March and remains capable of better in this sphere; leading contender off a 2lb lower mark. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Gained all three wins at around 1m on turf; yet to hit top gear after three runs turf this season (1m-1m1f) and moves up in trip with a quite bit to prove. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Spent last year in France; fine record here, including two wins in summer 2024 and a third off this mark in a blanket finish two weeks ago; the latter followed a Windsor win (1m2f, win); looks set for another big run. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Fine record here, with his four runs yielding two wins and a second for Adam West in 2024; followed that trainer to France last year but he was back to being an Epsom resident when close third on stable debut at Lingfield (AW) in April and secured first win for this yard at Windsor (also 1m2f, good to firm) one month ago; 4lb rise but he's won off higher; player. |

Verdict
C&D winner Just An Hour ought to be a tough nut to crack, but it’s hard to get away from unexposed 3yo MYTHOLOGICAL STAR who moves up in trip after winning over 1m on his handicap debut six days ago. He can overcome a 6lb penalty.[Chris Wilson]
