22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Money-spinner for connections down the years; recent efforts have suggested he retains a good deal of his ability and his handicap mark is easing; beaten only 3l in a 7f Group 1 at this meeting 12 months ago; each-way shout. |
33/1 |

11th 14 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Having edged down the weights he offered a good deal more when third to Tuco Salamanca at Newcastle (6f, AW) in June; finished with a flourish when seventh behind Dubai Bling at Ascot (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago, a run that confirmed he was still in good order; returning to 6f will help and he can't be dismissed, for all that he has been well beaten in this race twice before (2022 and 2025). |

Six runs at Ascot have yielded two Group 3 wins (6f) as well as a third in a Group 1 over C&D; back to form with a good third in a competitive AW handicap (6f) two weeks ago; 1lb rise not insurmountable; respected. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Campaigned almost exclusively over sprint trips; consistent AW form this year includes two wins; effective on turf but hasn't scored in this sphere for three years and he's not the percentage call back at 7f. |
25/1 |

3rd 5 (5) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Ended a long losing run at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in January and he also won at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in February; he's continued in good form on Tapeta on his last two starts and is also effective over this C&D; might have a part to play. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
11-time AW winner (mainly on Polytrack); ought to have been suited by the soft ground when well-held fifth at Windsor on Saturday, after a break, and might find younger rivals better handicapped here. |
12/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Likes soft ground, on which he was a close second (clear of rest) at Lingfield in June and that was after a break of 72 days; a wet day would make him interesting. |

2nd 2 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Stays 1m but all eight of his wins have come over 7f, the latest at Kempton 18 days ago; should get a good pace to aim at and he holds each-way claims again. |
11/2 |

1st 7 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Well held after a slow start here (1m) 12 days ago but that was after two solid placed efforts at Lingfield (7f/1m); losing run is now up to 15 but he's on a dangerous mark and could get involved if he gets a good pace and some luck; cheekpieces removed. |

28th Sep 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
This year's best form has come over 7f on AW; has run well over C&D but she will need to leave her recent return to action well behind her; stable also run Kinta. |
25/1 |

7th 4 (3) |
14th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark for this yard in a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in March; stiff tasks on her next two starts and this should be more suitable in class terms; might be better suited by further though. |

13th 11 (9) |
21st Apr 2023 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins all came over 7f and she's having a first ever crack at this trip, under a jockey who can't claim his usual 5lb; has a good bit to find and Perdika looks her trainer's best chance. |

Well below par in two races (elsewhere) since returned to AW but could revive back at Wolverhampton; has form figures of 7112441 over C&D, most recently defying a 2lb higher mark last March; not dismissed. |

19th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

7f specialist who has to put a moderate effort at Southwell last time behind him, but is back off the same mark as when gaining his third Wolverhampton success back in March; has gone close on Polytrack and shouldn't be far away. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Low-key return to turf at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; should be well treated but he comes with risks attached. |

14th 11 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but he has slipped a long way in the weights; absent since a poor run at Newcastle (7f) in February; headgear absent for his return and dropping back to 6f isn't sure to suit. |
33/1 |

10th 12 (11) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Too headstrong in a clear lead at Southwell (7f) last time, so did fairly well to be beaten only 2l in the end; gained last win off 10lb higher at Newcastle in August 2024; fighting chance provided he settles. |

Excels here and ran another good race at the track when a closing third behind Under The Twilight, having got behind; a faster pace today would play to his strengths; no ground concerns. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
9yo who's an eight-time Windsor winner, including this May and June; beat Amazonian Dream in the latter race and runner-up to him here next time, before not disgraced on a first crack at Brighton; reliable sort from off the pace and he has each-way claims again. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (7) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |

Eight-time Windsor winner, including twice of late, who's having a first run round here; ultra-consistent, especially considering his age and that he's usually dropped in, but there's little room for manoeuvre off this mark; yard also responsible for Duskaura. |
