23rd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Six-time winner but only one of those came in a double-figure field (October 2022); ran well at Newmarket when last seen eight months ago; has gone well fresh in the past; others appeal more all the same. |

25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Beat three rivals over 1m4f on the July Course here (good to firm) under Alexandra Egan in midsummer; comfortably held in three outings since but has dipped back to that successful mark. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Beat three rivals over 1m4f here in July since when he's been comfortably held; on the plus side, he might appreciate this belated return to 1m6f as he does have form over this far. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Did well to win at York (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in August but only fourth of five in the Great Metropolitan at Epsom (also 1m4f, good, Topteam behind) 17 days ago; that was a shade underwhelming given he'd won the race in 2025 but was a little weak in the market so maybe better can be expected this time. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Last year's winner (good) who ran well in two other appearances over C&D; did well to win at York (1m4f, good to firm) under John Egan in August and arrives here fit after three creditable efforts at Meydan; firm contender. |

Had a busy 12 months but right on the money when staying on best last time at York (1m4f) and this stiff finish will suit him well, as it has done before; only 3lb higher. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner whose losing run is up to 17 but he had dropped 14lb below his last winning mark when beaten less than a length into third of seven here four weeks ago; respected if building on that. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner who is versatile ground-wise; well handicapped on best form last season but he was out of sorts in the autumn and needs a major revival after six months off. |
6/1 |

7th 2 (5) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
11st 9lb |
Three handicap wins (one on soft) at 1m2f, the latest in July 2024; 11lb lower today but he's basically gone off the boil this season. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Two of his six wins have come over C&D; can go well fresh so his low-key return to action at Yarmouth last month was disappointing; down in class and has the assistance of Henry Callan in the saddle so he could leave that well behind. |
11/2 |

10th 10 (3) |
11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Course winner who had irregular form in 2025 but he only just failed on his reappearance at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last spring and he's 4lb lower now; on the cards that he'll return with a good effort. |
14/1 |

7th 8 (6) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Started this season with a near-miss at Windsor (1m2f) in April but comfortably held since; bit to prove, including on the AW. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Both wins came over 1m2f in the spring of 2024, including here; 0-18 subsequently and he's still 7lb above his last winning mark, but he goes well fresh (has won after a longer break) and finished third on his comeback in this race last year; likely to be competitive. |

3rd 4 (8) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Has run some really good races in defeat this season, including over C&D on good/good to firm; latest soft-ground Ascot second (Grizedale third) shows he's still in form but he's been beaten on his last 17 starts and suspicion he might find at least one too strong again. |

21st Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 37y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned after wind surgery with close thirds at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) and Windsor (11.4f, good) but he didn't find much when disappointing at Kempton last time; bit to prove again after that and he's had only one win in his last 17 starts. |

25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Only recently returned from wind surgery and under positive rides has finished close up at Lingfield (1m4f AW) and Windsor (1m3.5f); had no excuses either time but he's unlikely to be far away. |
7/1 |

3rd 5 (8) |
16th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
First run after wind surgery when unable to exploit a soft lead on the AW recently (1m4f); however, six of his seven wins have been on turf and he likes it around here; dangerously handicapped. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Four-time winner over 1m/1m2f here; back off his last winning mark and has twice won after an absence, but whether he can do so after 313 days off is a moot point; may also need further than this now. |
10/1 |

23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Former miler who has reinvented himself as a stayer, winning over 2m on AW in March and respectable fourth over C&D last time; the 8yo now takes on some unexposed 3yos. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Running, and winning, over 1m this time last year but he collected by 2l over 2m on the Kempton AW in March; not in the same form back there a month ago but chance if on a going day (can be up and down). |

8st 12lb |
Has won here (1m) but his two successes in the meantime came over 1m2f on turf in the spring of last year; now 5lb lower than for the latest of those and stepping back up in trip may suit; each-way claims. |
