4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
10lb higher than when winning this race at its usual home Haydock (good) last July in great style; that was his final race last season but he put up a bold show when third to Klassleader at York this May; non-runner at Royal Ascot where the good to firm ground was deemed unsuitable (third of 12 on it at York last May); big shout if today's ground is okay. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Ended his time with Harry Charlton on a high for Pontefract win (1m2f, good to soft; has won on good to firm) last September; had three races in Bahrain in December-March, clearly best of those on first occasion and given wind surgery since latest; needs a career best. |

25th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |

Solid in three handicaps since winning his maiden at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) and despite being beaten about 7l last time the headline-grabbing winner took up over six of them; looks likely to make his presence felt. |

Made a winning stable debut at Meydan (12.5f, good) in January, but held in three starts since; ran with credit in one previous go on the AW, but others are more compelling. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Performed respectably in three starts over C&D for Roger Varian and he made a winning stable debut at Meydan (1m4f, good) in January; lesser show at Abu Dhabi followed and he once again raced freely when beaten 17l in the Duke Of Edinburgh over C&D at last month's Royal meeting; hood makes a reappearance, which can be viewed positively. |

9st 9lb |
Won last September on his first two starts for this yard (heavy/AW); disappointing favourite at Newmarket (1m4f, good) on his reappearance but he's been runner-up at Kempton in both starts since; switches back to turf with blinkers now tried; contender. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |

Won last September on first two starts for yard; disappointing favourite at Newmarket (1m4f, good) on return but second of 13 over C&D (Bulletin fourth) five weeks ago was his best form yet; up 3lb but this race looks less competitive. |

9st 12lb |
Fourth at Newmarket (1m4f, good) on seasonal/stable debut gave encouragement again, followed by a decisive win at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in May; 14-1 but it looked as if 1m6f stretched him when seventh of 16 at Royal Ascot (good to firm; every chance 2f out) and he probably remained in form; needs a close look back at 1m4f. |
2/1 |

7th 15 (10) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
His form eventually ran cold for the Gosdens last season but he's back on the up for his new yard, following his pleasing comeback at Newmarket with a decisive win at Kempton where he swept by late on (1m4f, AW); has low enough mileage to believe he'll cope fine with a 7lb rise and, despite not being Wathnan's first string on jockey arrangements, he's one to consider. |

Could be unexposed at 1m4f and ran creditably on first attempt at trip when third of eight at Ascot (good to firm) two weeks ago; goes well for positive tactics and Toby Moore's 7lb claim is a bonus. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Last seen floundering on heavy going in the November Handicap at Doncaster; the clear highpoint of that campaign was his second at Epsom (1m4f, good; stays 1m6f) in April, which came first time out and points up his chance given that he is now 11lb lower; needs a second look. |
6/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |

Progressive last year so his mixed form this season has been a little disappointing, albeit his latest sixth (Dramatic Star second, Stressfree third) in the Old Borough Cup at Haydock (1m6f, good) was respectable. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
His 1m4f win on good to firm at Newmarket in July reads well but has finished behind Castle Stuart in their recent clashes and beat only one home in the John Smith's Cup four weeks ago; probably vulnerable off this mark. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Easy win at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in May before solid third of 16 over this C&D (good), and he improved again to win at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) last Saturday; today's assignment is tougher still but this thriving 5yo could be in the each-way mix under a 5lb penalty. |

1m2f winner for previous yard and has form figures of 442 over hurdles for current stable; had wind surgery and layoff prior to possibly needing the run when returned to the Flat (33-1) last time; market support would augur well. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Two novice hurdles last autumn seem a pretty meagre return for respected yard but he was an unlucky, strong-finishing third in the 2024 Chester Cup; glimpses of that Flat ability on occasions since, but he made inroads far too late from out the back in this last year (11th at 13-2) and it was a similar story in last month's Chester Cup (8th at 11-1); something needs to change and such a wide draw probably means he tries to come from the back again. |
14/1 |
|
8th 11 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
An unlucky, strong-finishing third in this race in 2024 (good to firm; his only run here) and has a 1lb lower mark today; flickers of that ability on occasions since, though had to have his sights lowered for two hurdle wins last autumn; tailed off at 40-1 in a Grade 1 novice hurdle four weeks ago, after a winter break, and could be more interesting this time. |

Career highlights (1m4f/1m6f) for Roger Varian were in 2024 and he managed only mid-division in his three handicaps (at top meetings) last July-September; rather worse in both runs (his first races on AW) for new connections early this year but he returns to turf 8lb below his career-high mark. |
28/1 |

21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
On same mark as for his win at York (1m4f, good) in August 2024 but he's not seen much action since and has been well held in last four starts; may have needed the run on his stable/AW debut at Kempton (28-1) last month but others are more persuasive. |

Won twice in 2024 for Jane Chapple-Hyam; spent a year with Jack Morland and got off the mark for him at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) 19 days ago; sold again for 22,000gns one day later and this is his first run back with his former yard; back up 4lb and not proven beyond an extended 1m2f (unraced over this far); tongue-tie and headgear worn for his last yard is removed; quite a few questions, but peak 2024 form was a bit better. |

Both wins came in May 2024 over about 1m2f when trained by Jane Chapple-Hyam; closest since when beaten a neck at Nottingham (1m2f, good) last month in first-time blinkers (retained since); still well handicapped on his best form. |

Kicked off this campaign with two wins in a row (7f, good to soft/AW) before solid second at Newmarket (1m, good); didn't run badly in mid-division in Class 2 at Epsom (8.5f, good to soft) last time and he could be in the mix back down in grade. |
