16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
8yo who is 0-10 this year but he was a good third here (7f, soft) last month and also ran well when runner-up off this mark at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) last Wednesday; might not be far away. |

8st 11lb |
Placed at Haydock last time; form at Goodwood features a success off 3lb higher last term and sixth of 18 in this year's Golden Mile; the 8yo is attractively treated and can't be dismissed. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Versatile tactically; took her form to a new level in 2024, which included a Listed win at Newmarket (1m, heavy) in September and some solid runs in Group races to start the season; close fourth from the front at Goodwood on reappearance five weeks ago and has each-way claims. |

3rd May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Took her form to a new level last season, which included a Listed win at Newmarket in September and a second in a Group 3 in France the following month (both at 1m on heavy); has to concede weight all round on her return but she has the best form in this line-up and is fairly versatile ground-wise; big player. |

25th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Recorded the most recent of his five wins when taking an amateur riders' race at York (10.5f, good) 15 months ago; now 11lb lower but he's 0-11 since and has been out of sorts this season; has plenty to prove and slow starts have been an issue in three of his last four runs. |

Registered the most recent of his five wins when taking an amateur riders' race at York (10.5f, good) 15 months ago; now 9lb lower but he's 0-10 since that last success and has been out of sorts this season; has bit to prove and he needs to break much better than last time. |

Registered the most recent of his five wins when taking an amateur riders' race at York (10.5f, good) 14 months ago; now 8lb lower after some disappointing efforts but last time's fourth at Beverley in June could be viewed as a step back in the right direction. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Three C&D runs have yielded two wins and a second; pulled too hard and beaten a long way at Ascot 17 days ago but that was a Class 2 and this should be more suitable; big run expected. |
4/1 |

8th 10 (2) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Two course wins feature one at 7f, but both his wins this term came in Class 4 handicaps at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm), including on his last outing 24 days ago; arrives in good heart but this is a notable step back up in grade. |

Not beaten far on any of his three hurdling starts for Fergal O'Brien this season and, given he was very useful on the Flat at his best, could quite plausibly turn out to be well treated for this handicap hurdle debut. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up off a similar mark in this race for Charlie Hills last year; made a good start for new yard when third at Hamilton (1m1f) last month and he had another close call at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm) 19 days ago; usually races prominently and another bold bid is expected. |
3/1 |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won twice for Charles Hills, including 1m2f on fast ground, and he ran well on his stable/seasonal debut at Hamilton last month (1m1f, good to firm), beaten around half a length into third (strong favourite); has races in him off this sort of mark but he could face competition for the lead here. |

7th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up twice in a row at Newcastle (7f/1m, AW) in March; not at his best in two turf starts this summer but his mark has eased 4lb as a result and his better AW record provides hope for a revival. |
25/1 |

8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 2 |

Runner-up twice in a row at Newcastle (7f/1m, AW) in March; handed tough assignment in Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot when back from a break (well beaten) but he's now just 1-17 on turf and others have more compelling credentials; wears a first-time tongue-tie. |

16th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Bettered disappointing seasonal debut when respectable fourth at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) a fortnight ago, but needs to take another step in the right direction here and his tendency to race too freely remains a nagging concern. |
10/1 |

4th 2 (1) |
1st Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Leicester novice winner (7f, good to firm) last October after having been gelded/undergone wind surgery, but beaten a long way on return from six months off at Musselburgh (7f, good to soft) in April; possible that the ground didn't suit and it was a much stronger race than this one, so no surprise if he left that effort behind. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On much reduced mark but this Kempton specialist has not won since 2022 and has form figures of 90068079 this year; cheekpieces return on his second run after a break but he needs a major revival back up in trip. |
12/1 |

18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific course winner but the latest of them was back in April 2022; now rated 32lb lower but he wasn't in much form earlier in the year; could revive after his break; stable also run Galel; betting can guide. |
12/1 |

5th May 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Eight-time course winner who is 12lb lower than when a close third over C&D last September; a market check is advised but this 10yo has struggled this year (including here) and is without a win since April 2022. |

9st 10lb |
Back to winning ways at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in June and has continued in good nick, third of 12 in 6f Pontefract handicap nine days ago; ought to be in the shake-up again. |

3rd 7 (2) |
17th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Wolverhampton in June and he's also had some close calls this season including at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago; now drops back in trip but he was only just caught after setting a strong pace last time and is a key player off unchanged mark. |
9/2 |

3rd 10 (1) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Found out by the drop back to 6f at Catterick 19 days ago; in good form over this trip beforehand but in a lower grade; could prove vulnerable in Class 4 company. |
