Arrives here fit and in form after a third of nine at Haydock (7f, soft; unraced on firmer than good) three weeks ago; C&D winner earlier in career; should be in the thick of things again. |

Now 7lb lower than when making all for narrow C&D (soft) win at end of last season but is yet to strike form after five runs this year; needs a good boost from the first-time blinkers. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Very useful on the Flat in his prime and returned from long absence with two encouraging hurdle runs for new stable this season, latterly when close fifth at Uttoxeter (2m, good) three weeks ago; that form already gives him good claims and he could quite plausibly have a bigger run in him. |
9/4 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won the Bunbury Cup in 2023; unraced beyond 1m on the Flat but seemed to stay the trip okay on jumps debut here following a long absence; however, what he achieved behind an easy winner in that small field is questionable. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Very useful on the Flat in his prime, with career highlight his 2023 Bunbury Cup success (7f; unraced beyond about 1m); absent since two below-par runs in spring 2024, though, and tricky to weigh up on stable/hurdle debut. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Late-maturing type won the Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock (good) in 2024; did not appear last year until September and failed to recapture his best form in three runs, only fifth behind Spycatcher when favourite at Doncaster on last of them; reversed that form (and had James's Delight behind) when fourth in a 6f Listed race at the same venue eight weeks ago. |
4/1 |

4th 9 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Arrives late on the scene and had a stellar 2024, his three wins including this race (soft) and the Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock (good); wasn't seen last year until September and didn't fully fire in three runs, only fifth behind Spycatcher when favourite over C&D on last of them; dangerous if rebounding but has to prove he retains all his ability. |
4/1 |

9 (3) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Made the leap from top handicaps to Listed/Group races last season, winning the Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock (6f, good) by a head from Kind Of Blue, before finishing fifth to that rival in this event; 11 months off when an encouraging third of 11 in Group 3 at Newbury last month, getting going too late on his first attempt at 5f; that run suggests he retains all his ability and he's a serious candidate four weeks on. |

3-13 at Chester (the wins over 7.6f) but the last time he scored anywhere was in May 2023; has his lowest mark since 2020 and a shout on plenty of 2024 form, but seasonal debut may not be his best moment. |

2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Quality performer back in the day for Andrew Balding but he's looked on a slippery slope in the last 12 months; showed signs of a revival at Doncaster (3l sixth of ten) last time but that was in a messy race and he needs to build on that. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Veteran who dipped into a seller for his latest win, at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in July; current handicap mark is workable but his AW strike-rate is 0-13 and he needs to rebound from two down-the-field runs. |

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. |

Showed useful form for previous yard; 0-11 for current stable but last few efforts, most recently going close off this mark at Leicester (7f) last week, suggest his turn is near; appears to have a leading chance (due to go up 3lb from tomorrow). |

29th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Capable of smart form when trained by Charles Hills; struggled initially for this yard but there was much more encouragement off his much-reduced mark at Ayr last week (1m, good to soft), keeping on strongly having met trouble in running; can't discount now he's found his level. |

Beaten about 2l when sixth of 16 at Ayr (6f, good to soft) last month but he's been below his best in two starts since (6f/7f); without a win since November 2023 and now steps back up to 1m for the first time in over three years; best watched. |

Won a 6f Listed at Doncaster early last season (good to soft); ended 2025 in top form with convincing wins in Group 3 at Chantilly (very soft) and a Listed race at Doncaster (Montassib fifth); failed to uphold form with Montassib at the same venue on seasonal debut. |
