25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Merely mid-division behind Aalto in the Bunbury Cup at Newmarket a fortnight ago but this C&D brings out the best in him, as evidenced by this season's close-up finishes in the Victoria Cup (good) and Buckingham Palace Stakes (good to firm); could be bang there now back at Ascot. |

Ran well, only a neck behind Elarak, in the 7f handicap at Royal Ascot to maintain his solid record in headgear; good second in the Victoria Cup the time before; threatening to win a big prize; shortlisted. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who looked a smart prospect early doors and whose disappointing runs are perhaps best forgiven in hindsight; had wind surgery prior to a resurgence, leading his group for a very long way, in the Royal Hunt Cup (handicap debut); interesting assuming he builds on that effort. |
9/1 |

7th 29 (9) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Commenced his career with a novice double, looking a smart prospect; disappointing in his three races (Group/conditions) since, gelded prior to latest, but is on an attractive mark assuming another physical tweak (wind surgery) prompts a turnaround and fulfilment of the early promise. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Followed six duck eggs with a last-gasp win at Thirsk (1m, good) last Saturday under Seamus Cronin, capitalising on some leniency from the handicapper; nudged back up only 2lb; has possibilities if on another going day. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |

Formerly smart but is currently out of sorts, as several duck eggs next to his name reflect, and hasn't scored on turf for nearly three years (gained last two wins on Newcastle AW); opposed. |

9st 6lb |
C&D handicap winner who was third to Royal Velvet in a Group 3 at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) in May; however, this exposed 6yo faces a tougher assignment in today's line-up and was ninth of 13 in this race 12 months ago; blew the start at Newmarket last time; hood/tongue-tie are applied. |
50/1 |
|
7th 1 (3) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Excellent second in this race (good to firm) last year, when conceding weight to a winner who went on to better things; back to form when outstaying Shallow at Yarmouth (7f, good; similar terms today) in April and has since run well in a Group 3; early stumble cost her at Musselburgh since but she shouldn't be far away back in a handicap. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Reappeared with a convincing handicap win at Newbury (7f, good) in April; underwhelming favourite in Listed races at Newmarket and Epsom on next two starts but gelded since and returns to a handicap this afternoon, and he could have a part to play if rediscovering the Newbury form. |
14/1 |

6th 5 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Bit disappointing in similar event at Newmarket last time but otherwise a broadly progressive colt and can't be written off; ready winner of useful handicap at Newbury (7f, good) in his only other start this term. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Began the year with two good efforts at Newbury and Newmarket; beaten favourite on his last two starts but that is not to say this mark will prove beyond him if things pan out more favourably; each-way shout if a high draw doesn't prove to be a negative. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Low-mileage 4yo whose sound form this term includes a respectable effort behind the subsequent Wokingham winner; one of his three wins was gained over C&D; solid chance. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Scored three times for previous yard but is 0-8 for current stable and not particularly solid on 2026 form that includes mostly duck eggs, beaten 8l with tongue-tie fitted at Glorious Goodwood most recently; perhaps best watched unless the market speaks favourably. |
14/1 |

13th 17 (18) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Scored at York for Andrew Balding on his last run in this grade; quite highly tried in seven starts for this yard but he was far from disgraced when third of five in a Swedish Listed event (7f, good) one month ago; tongue-tie added and he has one of the widest stalls to contend with, however. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |

Mixed form this season but last two efforts creditable and the way his challenge petered out late on over 1m at Ascot a fortnight ago suggests this return to 7f could prove ideal. |
9/2 |

5th 8 (6) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Mixed form this season but kept on well for close fourth at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last Saturday; might not be far away back up to 1m. |
