28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Landed 6f AW novice at Chelmsford in 2023 for Hilal Kobeissi and showed fairly useful form at 6f/7f in Qatar early last season; returns from 16 months off (gelded) but no forlorn hope for yard going well, especially if the market vibes are positive. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won two 6f novice events as 2yo, beating Wokingham winner Double Rush in the first; well below that level when confined to only two starts at Meydan in 2025 (both in January), but he ran well for a long way in a Southwell handicap (7f; tongue-tie added) on his comeback last month; that was an encouraging effort after a long absence and he looks interesting on this drop back in trip. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won two turf novices as a 2yo, beating Wokingham winner Double Rush in the first; well below that level when confined to only two starts at Meydan in 2025 (both in January; one on AW); lots to prove on a few counts on handicap debut and with a tongue-tie tried, though any confidence behind him would turn some heads. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Goes very well here and scored over C&D last May; off nine months, yet to hit form in a pair of 7f handicaps at Doncaster and Newmarket this summer but no surprise to see him take a sizeable step forward back here off a reduced mark, especially if the market vibes are positive. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Back on last winning mark but is by no means certain to take advantage, having finished last of nine at Doncaster on seasonal debut; admittedly may fare better with that outing under his belt. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
No win since 2023 but he has raced mainly over 5f for new yard and may show the benefit of this return to 6f; attractively treated on plenty of form and can't be dismissed. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (10) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He hasn't won since a Listed success at York (6f, soft) in October 2023, but he's started for Robert Cowell with a trio of creditable efforts in competitive handicaps; could click for this yard at some point. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Disappointing when favourite at Windsor last time but he's still lightly raced and was an emphatic winner at Leicester (6f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has claims if he can bounce back. |
15/2 |

8th 1 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Threatened to be useful on occasions even before he won a four-runner handicap at Leicester (6f, good to firm) eight days ago by nearly 5l when tongue tied first time; penalised 6lb in this more competitive race but has to be considered seriously. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Progressive 2yo/3yo; he has faced some stiff tasks for his new yard this year and has come up short; his sights are lowered here, however, and 6f on fast ground won't faze him; respected now down into a 0-90 with headgear dispensed with. |
7/1 |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Four wins at 6f for previous yard but he was far from disgraced when seventh of 28 in 7f Victoria Cup here (good; first-time cheekpieces) in May; drawn on the wrong side when he finished last at the Royal meeting but he's dropped to a handy mark and shouldn't be discounted on this return to 6f. |

10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has plenty of handicapping experience but better than ever when winning quite convincingly over C&D (good to firm) recently; on a career-high mark against stronger opposition but it's not too late for him to do better. |
9/2 |

1st 4 (4) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

Resumed winning ways at Yarmouth (6f) in May but he's twice failed to build on it, only seventh of 11 at Ascot (6f) 17 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |

Coaxed back to form by James Owen last autumn; had an unsuccessful stint in the Middle East over the winter but returned to Owen and won handicaps at Leicester (6f) and Salisbury (5f) in the spring; sold for 25,000gns last month; looks on a tough mark ahead of his stable debut. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won this race last year on soft ground and he's now 4lb lower; shaped well from unfavourable draw when seventh at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) two weeks ago; returning to 7f should suit, and rain would not inconvenience him in the slightest; wears headgear for the first time; big player despite unflattering form-figures. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Acts on fast and soft ground; hasn't been at the top of his game this season but he ran well when fifth at Chester (7.6f) in May and is now 2lb lower than for his Sandown win last summer; should be fine on this return to 1m and he's not ruled out back from a break. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Can leads; dual winner at two; below best over 5f at Goodwood last time but had been running well in 6f handicaps and those were stronger races; stall 1 might not be ideal but enters the reckoning. |
6/1 |

8th 7 (9) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Often leads; won first two juvenile starts (extended 5f and 6f); placed only once in three 6f starts this year but he remains capable of better and, following a flagging fifth of 13 at Newmarket recently, he's worth a look in this first attempt over a bare 5f for yard that won this in 2021. |

9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Convincing winner of 6f maiden at Ffos Las as 2yo; he's needed some excuses in handicaps, such as when failing to pick up off an average pace over C&D last October and not having the ideal track position at Thirsk recently, but his comeback run at Chester in July was promising; capable of better. |
5/2 |

4th 12 (9) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

A fairly useful 6f winner at 2yrs; resumed from nine months off (gelded) with a promising second of six in 6f Chester handicap in July; a likely player with better probably to come after just six starts. |
8/1 |
