26th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Big chance on best 2023 efforts for Roger Varian but he did not shine last year (hurdles/Flat) for Emmet Mullins; 8,500gns buy in September and heavily beaten at 100-1 in a hot AW handicap (2m; first-time visor) in April; others are more solid at present. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who was well beaten in the John Smith's Cup at York last month but won two in a row here (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and continued in good form until his blip last time; not ruled out now back here. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and creditable fifth in the Northumberland Plate a fortnight ago (2m, AW); he's a 9yo who has never won off a mark this high but is versatile in terms of trip and ran well over C&D last month; not ruled out each-way. |

5th 7 (2) |
28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Third and sixth in last two runnings of the C&D Vase on this card; in the groove with successive wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f) this May; however, he's been held off this mark when back up to Class 2 in his three starts since, still in form but suggesting that others will have the edge today. |

11st 12lb |
Won twice early in Flat career for Keith Dalgleish; missed all of 2024 and failed to recapture best form in five runs for Andrew Balding last year; big price on Irish/hurdling debut at Thurles; unlikely to feature. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Long layoff before he stuck on from last into a respectable sixth in nine-runner handicap at Goodwood (2m, soft; 7lb lower today) this June; seemingly found 14.5f too short at Doncaster next time (not disgraced) but his 2m run at Ascot 12 days ago was pretty disappointing. |

8th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Should be well handicapped and has run well in defeat with cheekpieces added (joining regular tongue-tie) in last two races, behind Laravie in the penultimate one; surprising to see the blinkers back on. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |

The odd sign of spark last season and he may have needed his recent comeback run; down to a dangerous mark but this 7yo has been regressive and is winless since July 2024; cheekpieces return for first time since last May. |

Six-time winner at up to 2m in Britain but yet to hit any sort of form for current yard; career-low mark and tongue-tie tried so don't rule out. |

3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
9st 11lb |
Donegal yard likes to pick up horses with back-form, often from Britain, and try to rejuvenate them; six-time winner at up to 2m but hasn't been finishing out his races in Ireland and been off a while. |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 2m 0f 0y |

Six-time winner for Charlie Johnston and best form over this trip; poor on first two runs for this yard at big prices; better than bare result when beaten over 5l at Gowran last May; yard's first runner of the year won on Tuesday; no surprise were he to go well after a break with leading claimer aboard. |

Made a winning start for current yard at Ripon (2m) in June but her form has dipped recently, only sixth in 1m6f Newmarket handicap 29 days ago; she needs to bounce back. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Won a four-runner race on stable debut at Ripon (2m) in June but that's her best run this year; probably okay on soft ground but soundly beaten on heavy on latest outing; back to her last winning mark. |

10st 0lb |
Six-time turf winner, who ran into some trouble when a creditable second at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) last month; this is a deeper race but she's unexposed on AW and has not had many chances at this trip; respected. |

0-7 and generally disappointing on turf for new stable this year; needs to up her game to land this prize and her only previous AW experience was a down-the-field finish on Dundalk's Polytrack in 2021. |

Won three for the Johnstons in Britain, two on quick turf at 1m2f-1m4f; best run for this yard here over 1m7f (good) for this rider last July; poor since and never in contention on seasonal reappearance at Cork (1m, good); this trip more suitable and 3lb below last win but others look more likely. |

Won three races at up to 1m4f in Britain for the Johnstons; one of four runs for this yard was encouraging and there have been excuses the last twice on account of the draw and ground; off since August but not without hope. |
