22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who finished close up in valuable 7f handicaps at Royal Ascot and here (both good to firm) on last two appearances; doesn't have that much to find with the principals on this return to Listed company but has never run in a sprint before. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Record of 3-9 includes two wins at the Newmarket tracks; good second, beaten only a neck, in the 7f handicap at Royal Ascot (good to firm) most recently; due to go up 3lb in future; strong contender. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Dual winner on ground slower than good, including a C&D handicap last September; back on good to soft he chased home a handicap snip last weekend at Goodwood; he'll give his running but that's unlikely to be good enough. |
18/1 |

2nd 2 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Progressed into a useful sort last term but has a doubt over current form, having posted two duck eggs (both at Ascot) this season; best watched unless the market suggests a revival is likely. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Useful 7f performer and flagbearer for his stable; best form this term when winning at Thirsk and second at Haydock (Listed) in the spring; the only C&D scorer in this field but faces a stiff task upped in grade, being bottom on ratings. |
33/1 |

7th 2 (7) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Likeable 5yo who has a strike-rate of 7-19 and was runner-up behind an impressive winner in a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good) in May; should be in the mix again and his only previous visit to Chester resulted in a C&D win. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Back on the up with hard-fought 7f Listed win at Chester (good) in July, before finishing down the field in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood; returning to this trip should suit but he has a fair bit to find on the figures. |
33/1 |

22th 3 (9) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins in Dubai early in the year before coming up short in Group 1 company in March and June; back on the up with a 7f Listed win at Chester three weeks ago; this looks a tough task under 6lb penalty though. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Often leads; showed high-class form on good to firm ground last summer, runner-up in the Group 3 Jersey (7f) at this meeting, then involved in a tight finish for third place in the Group 1 July Cup at Newmarket (6f) despite racing away from the main action for much of the way; had some excuses later but he was back on track when a close second in a 6f Listed race at Salisbury recently; can go well from rail draw. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 7 (7) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Highly tried after trouncing Almeraq in a Yarmouth novice (6f, good to firm; receiving 7lb) last June, finishing second in the Jersey Stakes nine days later and not beaten far in the July Cup the following month; finished his 3yo campaign quietly but possible he'll kick on again this year. |

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. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 7 (12) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
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. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Ran poorly on his reappearance at Salisbury (6f, good) five weeks ago; best efforts give him a squeak and he is effective on AW but others appeal more for win purposes. |
16/1 |

9th 8 (5) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Just missed out in this race on his reappearance 12 months ago (good to firm); ended 2025 with two good second-place finishes in Listed company at Doncaster and Southwell; each-way shout once again. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Campaigned mostly at 7f; had wind/gelding operations prior to easily justifying favouritism in Goodwood handicap; second best (behind Andab) in the near-side group in the Jersey Stakes since; the only course winner in this field and there are 1m/1m1f scorers on the dam's side of his pedigree. |
12/1 |

10th 7 (14) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Disappointing when favourite at Meydan in February, but returned from wind surgery and a gelding operation with a much improved effort to win 17-runner handicap at Goodwood (7f, good) with stacks in hand; that looks solid form and a repeat would give him major claims for a stable that won this race in 2021 and 2022. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Kept on strongly for third at Doncaster (7f, good) last month and had no trouble making all when 8-15 in four-runner novice at Newcastle (7f, AW) 16 days later; useful prospect. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Well-bred filly; pleasing start to her career when keeping on strongly for third, behind a couple of fillies who had already shown a useful level of ability, at Doncaster 16 days ago (7f, good); leading claims with that run behind her. |
