18th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
AW winner who belatedly opened his turf account in Chester handicap (7.5f; back from a break) most recently; however, appears to need another career-best performance to follow up. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
0-16 on turf but usually runs his race; runner-up at this track (10.5f, good) when last seen in May; may find this on the sharp side having not been seen in races less than 1m since his juvenile days. |

2nd 7 (12) |

Without a win since his second start as a 2yo, but several good efforts since as when beaten a length into third of 24 in the Newbury Spring Cup (1m, good ) last month; Ryan Moore keeps the ride and rain shouldn't be an issue, but the draw could have been kinder. |

9st 2lb |
Record of 1-10 for Jessica Harrington, the win coming in a 7f maiden; bought for 33,000gns and it's been a very solid start in Britain, winning over slightly further at Chester and then second there three weeks ago from a bad draw; in form and considered. |

Formerly trained by Jessica Harrington in Ireland where he won a Galway maiden; sold to join current yard for 33,000gns last month and made an immediate impact by winning over C&D (good); has been raised 7lb and has an outside draw but may still have more to offer. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Absent nearly two years after making a winning debut at Newmarket in 2024; made up for lost time with two wins this summer, latterly on handicap debut at Thirsk (7f, good) and his close third of 13 from a wide draw at Chester (7.5f, good to soft) was another good effort; very much one to note. |
4/1 |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Absent nearly two years after making a winning debut at Newmarket in 2024, he has made up for lost time recently and bagged his third win on handicap debut at Thirsk (7f, good; 15-8) three weeks ago; there should be plenty more to come from him and he needs to be taken seriously here off 3lb higher. |
3/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Impressive on 2yo debut in 2024 (6f, good) then absent until last month, when going very close at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) before easy win at 1-50 at Lingfield (6f, good to firm); could be on a good mark for this first handicap. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Useful on AW/turf but was below par last time and seems weighted to the hilt back in this sphere; beaten off current mark (finished fifth of 12) in this race 12 months ago. |
12/1 |

10th 1 (6) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Tough 7yo with a fine C&D record; might have needed the run at Glorious Goodwood after five months off, and fared much better when fourth at Chester two weeks ago; that should have put him spot-on for this and he has real each-way claims. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (10) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
First of two wins over C&D came in this contest in 2024 off 4lb lower; had a fruitful AW winter campaign; reported to have met with a setback when being readied for Chester's May meeting and returned only when beating just one home in the Golden Mile at Goodwood (1m, good to firm) recently; has a high draw to contend with here and is 3lb higher than his last winning mark. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Can lead; won two big-field 7f handicaps in Ireland earlier in career and shone on AW for this yard over the winter, winning six times at 6f to 1m; plenty of creditable efforts in defeat on turf since, notably his close second of 23 in the Ayr Silver Cup (6f, heavy; acts on good to firm) 13 days ago; bold show likely if in similar form. |

2nd 14 (1) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Can lead; won two big-field 7f handicaps in Ireland earlier in career and has shone on AW for this yard over the winter, winning six times at 6f to 1m; has looked to have his share of weight since back on turf but this is his first 6f run since an AW win last December and the strong pace will suit. |

Hasn't won on turf for over two years but landed a four-timer on the AW in the spring; has been running consistently on turf since, admittedly starting to look exposed but he should run his race. |

8st 11lb |
Won over C&D (good) in May and, following his seventh of 24 in Bronze Cup at Ayr (6f) one week ago, scored again at Haydock (7f, good to soft) on Friday; had second-time cheekpieces yesterday but now tries blinkers; has 5lb penalty but a chance if yesterday's exertions have not taken it out of him. |

25th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |

Acts on good and soft ground; won off 1lb higher at Ripon (6f) in May but hasn't come up to scratch in his last four starts, including at this trip; now drops back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark. |

Front-runner; struggling for form this year but that is reflected in his much-reduced handicap mark; dropping into 0-80 company will help but there are risks attached. |

|
12th 1 (4) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Hasn't got going this year but he's dropped to a good mark on last year's high points and a tongue-tie is turned to; a revival is not out of the question; effective on soft but hasn't shone on heavy. |
20/1 |

10th 9 (7) |

9th 2 (11) |
26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

2yo Group 3 winner whose 3yo form has been mixed but he was a close Listed fourth at Chester (7f, good) in July and suffered a torrid passage when down the field in a handicap there (7.5f, good to soft) latest; not ruled out. |

Well suited by ground softer than good; ten-time winner, mainly at Goodwood, most recently in last year's Golden Mile off 12lb higher; has proved resurgent with second-place finishes over 7f the last twice, latest at Haydock; in the mix. |
5/1 |

2nd 9 (12) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Given his fine record on slow ground at Goodwood he was thoroughly underwhelming there last weekend, but two days later he bounced straight back to finish second at Epsom (7f, good to soft); might run well again but he's hard to catch right these days. |
