8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Kept on well for a seventh career success over C&D 19 days ago but he's gone back up 5lb and has never won anything better than a Class 5; others preferred. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In good form in the spring, winning at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) before near misses at Thirsk and over C&D; not at his best on his last two starts but this is an ease in class and he's a major player in his bid to win this race for a second time (successful in 2024). |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Five-time AW winner over 1m and he was runner-up on turf over this C&D two weeks ago on his first start for 270 days; the winner has won again since; has major claims in the returning cheekpieces. |
15/8 |

2nd 10 (5) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 after a successful time of things in 2024; returns from nine months off on a dangerous mark but he is a better horse on AW. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Record of 1-11, the win in a 7f maiden for the Gosdens; two near misses in handicaps at about 1m this summer and reportedly ran flat last time; hard to dismiss. |
5/1 |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 7f winner for John and Thady Gosden last summer; has steadily found his form for current yard, runner-up in five-runner event over C&D five days ago; player off an unchanged mark. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Novice winner at two; always doing enough for a successful handicap debut at Salisbury and then denied late on at Ascot (again at 1m on good to firm), where she dictated a steady pace; had no excuses that day but this longer trip should help, as she's out of a 1m4f winner. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 10 (7) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Prescott filly who ended her 2yo campaign by making all in 1m Newcastle novice and returned to win a Salisbury handicap over the same trip (good to firm) 11 days ago; a 4lb rise may not stop her with further progress looking assured. |

Five wins this year (7f-1m) have come at a cost mark-wise and has to bounce back from below-par run at York three weeks ago (jockey said he ran flat). |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Showed a consistent level of form in four defeats (6f-7f) for Aidan O'Brien, whom he left for 24,000gns; has definite form claims but he's undergone wind surgery, sports new headgear (tried blinkers on second run) and has been off since October; market confidence would be welcomed. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual winner at around 1m early in the year, latterly off 1lb lower, who's been this far only once (C&D last backend), when well held; offered more last time but stamina remains a worry. |
12/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Returned from a wind operation in December with a C&D success in February; scored over 1m at Southwell in April too when just 2lb lower; not so good on his next three starts but this is an ease in grade and he can't be discounted. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 5lb |
Modest form in four runs for George Boughey last year, failing to improve on his handicap debut (1m) last October; sold for 10,000gns later that month and gelded; only of interest if backed on his belated stable debut. |
20/1 |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Showed ability in three novices at 7f and 1m (two on Polytrack) without progressing; looks a slow learner, however, and will likely get his act together at some point; tongue-tie goes on for this handicap debut; respected. |
4/1 |
Betting Forcast
7/1 Hale End, 9/1 Kalamunda, 11/1 Kaleido, 7/2 Hot And Cold, 2/1 Franschhoek, 11/1 Roaring Ralph, 12/1 Savile Row, 11/2 American State, 100/1 Double Eagle
Verdict
Hot And Cold (second choice) needs to bounce back from a disappointing effort at Sandown over 1m2f but has good claims if doing so, while Kalamunda is also considered back on the AW. However, FRANSCHHOEK built on the promise of his debut when winning at Wolverhampton and is selected to follow up on his handicap debut. Hale End and American State complete the shortlist.
