15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Consistent on AW this year and was nudged up only 2lb for his win in refitted cheekpieces at Wolverhampton (7f) a fortnight ago; also suited by turf; respected. |

Things didn't pan out for him when back over 6f here in April (first-time visor; cheekpieces now refitted) but he has a good C&D record, winning once and close up in all three handicaps; has a good run in him. |

Hasn't built on the promise of debut second at Newbury (7f, good) in May in two subsequent outings (bled and reported to have been unsuited by quick ground on first occasion) but retains potential now handicapping; yard in very good form; interesting contender. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Won over 7f on Yarmouth debut last October; faded in the closing stages after briefly looking in control on his 7f Newbury reappearance, but perhaps he needed the outing a bit more than was anticipated (went off 4-6) and the fact he held an entry in the Group 1 St James's Palace at the time suggests his leading stable thinks quite a bit of him. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Useful on his day but losing run is mounting up and two duck eggs this year leave a question mark over his current form; chance partly depends on how well he responds to the removal of usual cheekpieces. |
7/1 |
|
14th 20 (21) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Showed his effectiveness over a straight 1m when beaten a nose in the 2025 Lincoln at Doncaster (good to soft) and he's now 3lb lower; several respectable efforts afterwards, and 6f on good ground was probably too sharp on his sole outing in Bahrain over the winter; certainly well handicapped on best form and well worth a market check after 106 days off. |
20/1 |
|
15 (22) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
0-10 on turf but he went very close behind Godwinson in the Lincoln (1m, good to soft) in March and is also effective on good ground; denied a clear run when keeping on for a close seventh of 12 at Newcastle (7f, AW) three weeks ago and he's one to be interested in now back up in trip. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
High-class handicap form at 6f to 1m on a range of surfaces and he was up against it when second to a progressive winner in this race last year; has since won two handicaps at Meydan for new yard and perhaps felt the lack of a recent run when mid-division in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot last month; leading player. |
7/1 |
|
14th 3 (10) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Campaigned at Meydan this year for new yard, winning two handicaps then not disgraced in Group 3; two attempts at this prize comprise a ready success off 4lb lower in 2024 (good to firm; recorded peak RPR) and poor effort (in cheekpieces) last year; likely player provided he's in top form. |
20/1 |

13 (18) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Highly tried after his impressive win at 2024 Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) but has mainly been disappointing; second of six at Hamilton (1m) 12 days ago was clearly his best show this season but he needs to build on that today over a new trip. |

Unexposed 3yo who shaped with promise when fifth in Salisbury novice (7f, soft) for Roger Teal in July; well beaten later that month but moves up in trip for today's stable/handicap debut and market support will make him of interest. |

Made all for his last three wins, the latest at Bath in May; never better than when beaten a nose in four-runner race at Nottingham (again 1m6f on good to firm) two weeks ago, so he needs respect. |

Five-time AW winner but still looking for a first turf win; well beaten in a C&D handicap six weeks ago; on a winning mark but not exactly solid. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Gained his fifth AW success when winning at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December; mixed results in four subsequent runs but he rallied for fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) in March; now returns to turf but he has placed form in this sphere and is not ruled out back up in trip. |
