10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
40-1 when beaten a nose at Kempton (6f, AW) on his stable debut in March and, after some lesser turf efforts, he was back in form when beaten a neck at Lingfield (1m, AW; first-time hood/tongue-tie) 19 days ago; thereabouts if he can transfer that form to grass this time. |
6/1 |

2nd 3 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

All four wins when trained by Mick Appleby; below par on turf recently and has a bit to prove on this return to AW; first-time hood goes on alongside returning tongue-tie. |
16/1 |

14th 5 (14) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Won over this trip at Newmarket last autumn for Mick Appleby but three turf runs for current yard have been well below par; bit to prove. |

Zoustar half-brother to winners Silent Echo (6f/7f including AW; RPR 107), Quietly Confident (French 6.5f AW; 79) and Deference (Spanish 1m1f); dam 1m 2yo winner (93); makes paper appeal and would enter the reckoning if the betting suggests he's fancied. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Runner-up on Polytrack at three for Andrew Balding; after best part of two years off, 80s when well beaten on yard debut here. |
50/1 |
|
13th 1 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Showed ability for Andrew Balding but sold cheaply in October 2024 and hasn't been seen since; best watched on stable debut. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Reserve; returned to his best form to win a seven-runner handicap at Goodwood (1m, good) last month by a neck; carries a 6lb penalty in this much hotter race and could prove vulnerable; seventh of 20 in this last year. |
16/1 |
|
1st 3 (8) |
23rd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Regular slow-starter who needs the cards to drop right and hasn't kicked on from his placed efforts in major handicaps in the spring; however, this C&D winner has a good chance provided he's back to best. |
3/1 |
|
6th 6 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Has contested the Lincoln, Victoria Cup and Golden Mile this year, looking unlucky in first two and blowing the start in last-named; very dangerous if everything clicks, although his stamina for this longer trip has to be taken on trust (well held on both previous attempts at 1m1f/1m2f). |

This son of Time Test cost 4,000gns as a yearling and is closely related to 1m/1m2f winner Zara's Return (RPR 82); dam French 1m AW winner; likely best watched on debut. |

6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Left all previous form behind when an emphatic winner over C&D (soft; made all) in April and her odds-on failure at Doncaster came the following week; had a break since and probably still on a fair mark; fast ground would be a first for her. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 8 (7) |
2nd May 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Took a marked step forward from her previous efforts (behind Solar Bentley at Wolverhampton) when making all to score emphatically at Beverley (1m2f, soft) last week; is 4lb well-in under her 6lb penalty, so likely to take some stopping if in the same mood. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Capable of some fair form but this low-mileage 6yo has yet to offer much in three runs this summer and failed to beat a rival in five-runner handicap at Bath (5.5f) two weeks ago; blinkers go on for the first time. |
40/1 |
|
5th 5 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
12-race maiden; not disgraced when fifth of seven behind Nordic Glory here (5f, firm) on seasonal debut in May but a lesser effort over C&D followed and others in this field have much stronger claims; tongue-tie removed after one use. |
25/1 |
|
7th 4 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-11 but he was a close-up third in a classified event at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) last August; fifth of seven here over 5f on his reappearance and may come on for that; tongue-tie added. |

12th 7 (10) |
2nd Mar 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
