21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Has taken time to get to grips with turf and was easily seen off when fourth in this last year; however, a gelding operation in the close season has worked wonders and he followed a Group 3 win with one in a Group 2 at Haydock (5f, good to soft), overcoming a slow start to win in some style; his star has dimmed somewhat at Royal Ascot and Goodwood since, but the return to a flat track offers hope that he can be on song again. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Returned this year having been gelded and he's been an improved model, winning the Group 3 Palace House at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) and the Group 2 Temple Stakes at Haydock (5f, good to soft) before leading home those who raced in the centre group when tenth of 26 overall at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); usually front-runs and this speedy track should suit him better than Ascot (ran well in this last year); strong claims despite 3lb penalty. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Turned his back on a brilliant AW career and, after some fruitless efforts on turf in 2025, as when fading into mid-division in this race, the switch has paid off handsomely since he was gelded, the usual front-running tactics working well at Newmarket (good to firm) before he showed he doesn't have to lead when arriving late for a cosy Group 2 win at Haydock (also 5f, good to soft) in May; this stiff 5f asks a question but he could achieve yet more. |

30th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Dual winner last year (7f/1m; AW/good to firm) when trained by Roger Varian; has dropped in the weights and his last two efforts have been good, including when runner-up to On Key over this C&D two weeks ago, despite a wide trip; considered. |

Dual winner for Roger Varian (7f/1m; AW/good to firm); has slipped to a good mark and he halted the slide in his fortunes with a third at Yarmouth; considered despite an awkward draw. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Second to Waardah in this last year and fourth to Santorini Star and Consent in Group 2 at Doncaster (14.5f, good to soft) last September; routed her rivals in Listed event (1m2f, heavy) in November and reappeared with Group 3 win at York (1m6f, good; made most at 1-2) ten weeks ago; unraced on good to firm since 2024 (comfortably held); serious player if the ground is okay. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Likeable 5yo who signed off for last year with a demolition job on 17 rivals in Listed event at Doncaster (1m2f, heavy) in November; possibly ideally suited by the mud but drying ground should not inconvenience her unduly and she has made the frame in two Group 2 races over 1m6f; the one to beat if giving her running after a winter break. |
8/11 |

5th 1 (8) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Best effort last season was over 1m4f on heavy ground in October and she's shown similar form in Group 2s over about 1m6f in her only two starts this term, keeping Waardah up to her work at Goodwood on first occasion; a fair bit extra will be needed from her if she's to win this. |

One of her three wins came over C&D; off the mark for this stable when comfortably seeing off eight rivals at Newcastle two weeks ago (6f); drawn wide but a 3lb rise looks manageable. |

Has won off higher marks when trained by Ivan Furtado in 2024; 0-8 for current yard but was close second at Yarmouth (6f, soft) two runs back; on a career-low mark and cannot be discounted. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
0-9 on AW; reportedly benefited from removal of blinkers with narrow win at Pontefract (1m4f; front pair clear) a fortnight ago but underwhelmed over 1m2f (also good to soft) at Redcar on Saturday; step back up to this trip should help. |

Reportedly benefited from removal of blinkers when returning to form with narrow win at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; front pair clear) nine days ago; recent 4lb rise is manageable and the forecast overnight rain will be very much in his favour. |

9st 4lb |
Has done nothing but progress since the visor went on, winning five of his last eight starts (including C&D) and going up 31lb in the weights; off for eight months since winning at Goodwood in September and will need another career-best off this mark. |

Has won four of his last seven starts at 6f, on AW then back on turf at Doncaster (good to firm) in June; up 7lb but it was a solid sixth of 22 at York (good) in July, when he raced away from the main action; drying ground would be a likely positive and he's firmly in the picture. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Progressed from a low base last July/September, winning at up to 2m; quiet on her first two starts this summer following wind surgery, but she was back in the groove when second of 13 at York (extended 2m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) three weeks ago; tackles a classier event this time but can't be dismissed. |

Arrives with something to prove having been well beaten here on her two starts this summer (1m2f/1m4f); however, she was progressive last July/September, winning at up to 2m, and she won over hurdles in March; possibilities if she's back on song in a first-time tongue-tie; watch the betting. |

Beaten a neck at Bath (1m2f, good) last month on second handicap start and another good run when close fifth at Lingfield (1m1f, good) last time, when those ridden more prominently held sway; unraced on slow ground; solid claims for trainer who won this two years ago. |
