23rd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
6yo who rose through the ranks last season and won the Group 2 King George Stakes at Goodwood (5f, good to soft) in August; reappeared with respectable fourth of 14 to Night Raider in the Palace House at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago and he could show the benefit of that outing today. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Below best from a high draw in the Group 1 Abbaye on final 2025 start; thoroughly reliable previously and he richly deserved his Group 2 win at Goodwood (5f, good to soft; effective on good to firm) last August; versatile track-wise but has never run at Newmarket so there is a query to answer. |
9/1 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Thoroughly honest 5yo who has risen to new heights over 5f this year with his win in the Dash at Epsom (good; acts on good to firm) topped by a Group 2 win at Goodwood last time out, albeit with the race going like clockwork for him; has more to do in this company, including with Washington Heights on Listed form over C&D in July, but he won't fail for the want of trying. |

Promising return to action at Beverley in April but below par at York's Dante meeting in May (final start for Nigel Tinkler) and not seen again until seventh to Alfa Whiteburd (True Promise third) over C&D 12 days ago, fading as if the run was needed. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner, the latest when scoring comfortably over 5f last month; easy wins in successive days in early September (good to firm and heavy); now 24lb higher than when starting his winning spree and he will require another career best to overcome latest 11lb rise; certainly can't be ignored though. |

Made it 3-3 since the blinkers were added when comfortably accounting for his two rivals over Brighton's extended 5f yesterday (good to firm); carries a double penalty here but he's fine on slow ground and couldn't be in better form. |

Failed to win in seven runs for Richard Fahey (promise on soft); stayed on well to do best of the stands' side group at Goodwood on his stable debut nine weeks ago (5f, soft) but he looked a tricky ride there and wouldn't be sure to build on it. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |

Multiple AW winner; quirky sort who often starts slowly but he finally got off the mark (in a change of headgear) on turf in 5f Goodwood handicap last month; up 3lb but he can make his presence felt again. |

1st 2 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on AW; record of 0-16 on turf but he was only beaten a nose off this mark at Bath (5f, firm) on Monday; has leading claims if he can repeat that form and he's versatile ground-wise; regular hood is removed and cheekpieces return. |

Acts on any ground; successful in handicaps at this course (gamely) and Hamilton (impressively) in May/June; creditable third to Makarova at Sandown upped to Group 3 level, having kicked for home too soon in hindsight; currently in career-best form; could go well. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Progressive last year, with his three wins including two at Ascot (one over C&D); confirmed his affinity for the track with a good fourth in the Wokingham three weeks ago, a race where he was finishing fast up the stands' rail and comfortably beating the others to race on that part of the track; 1lb rise manageable but with the stalls on the stands' side there must be a query over the suitability of stall 1. |
7/2 |

4th 29 (29) |
21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Regularly runs well in big-field sprints and in fine form here in 2024, finishing a close second of 26 over C&D before winning both subsequent starts (good and soft); may be high in the weights relative to this class of race but he shouldn't be far away following a luckless Goodwood run and then slightly short of room at York since. |
20/1 |

7th 3 (12) |
14th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Made good progress last season, winning handicaps over C&D and twice at Ascot (5f and 6f); unplaced twice this year but looked to need the run at Southwell and then met plenty of trouble at Goodwood 12 days ago (saw little daylight between 2f out and 1f out as the race was unfolding); 1lb lower today and Oisin Murphy, who won on him at Ascot in October, takes over; still has something to prove on good to firm, albeit he had a bleak draw when well held at the Ebor meeting last year. |

Successful in a Yarmouth 5f handicap in week one of the Racing League; latest 6f run easy enough to overlook and he's a contender back under suitable conditions (won the 5f handicap at the Racing League meeting at this track last September). |

12th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |

All of his five wins have been at 5f; won two in a row in Bahrain in February and he landed a Racing League handicap at Yarmouth (good to firm) last month; hit a personal best with that success but this is tougher off 5lb higher and his only previous run at this trip resulted in a heavy defeat. |

9th Jul 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Straightforward opening when winning his only AW run last summer (2-11f); looked very good when winning a Haydock nursery in September and he's only 2lb higher today; well short of that level twice this year but those runs have been in better races than this; a danger to all if back to the Haydock level. |

23rd Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Won two of his first three 2yo starts and ran well for third in the Super Sprint last July; really impressive in a Haydock nursery last September (5f, good to soft) but had his limitations exposed in the Cornwallis Stakes on final run in 2022; low-key return at York last month; needs to return to the Haydock level to be competitive. |
