22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Unlucky second at Glorious Goodwood in 2024 when bidding for a notable 1m2f handicap double; best effort in a truncated 2025 campaign when fourth to Haatem in Listed grade at Royal Ascot; should be thereabouts, provided he's in top form after ten-month layoff. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Won the valuable John Smith's Cup at York (1m2f, good to soft) last July in his penultimate handicap; close fourth of 16 in Listed race at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) one month ago showed, not for the first time, that he should be well capable of a prominent finish in today's company. |

Enjoyed a good 2024, including a win in valuable John Smith's Cup at York (1m2f, good to soft); showed he can mix it outside handicaps when second in 1m2f Listed race at Ayr (good to firm) last autumn; went without regular hood (back on now) when behind a couple of today's rivals in the Group 3 Brigadier Gerard on his reappearance at Sandown (1m2f, good) 19 days ago; likely to be sharper now and his yard has won this twice in recent years; a must for the shortlist from a handy draw. |

9st 11lb |
He wasn't at his very best last year but took a step back in the right direction when front-running fourth of 21 off this mark in the Lincoln at Doncaster five weeks ago on first run for new yard; no stamina worries but there is a concern about good to firm ground. |

He wasn't at his very best last year for George Boughey, albeit he did finish third in the Listed Doncaster Mile over C&D (good to soft) on this card; now down to a mark 3lb lower than when runner-up in the John Smith's Cup at York (1m2f, good to soft) in July 2024 and his new trainer is a dab hand with topweights in big handicaps; goes well fresh and could have a big say. |

Beaten on his last 12 starts going back to May 2024 but he's run some big races in the meantime, including when beaten a head in this last year (good to firm) off the same mark as today; reappeared with solid sixth of 24 on stable debut in the Spring Cup at Newbury (1m, good); can be in the mix. |

In and out last season for Michael Bell, the high points coming when second in big fields at York (good to firm) in May and the Curragh (good to yielding) in September; all his best efforts have come over 1m2f so today's shorter distance is a concern but it's possible he'll be freshened up by a change of stable (same owner). |

8st 12lb |
Made no impact last autumn in first two handicaps (1m2f/1m6f, soft) and absent since; however, his trainer has won this three times since 2011, including with the reappearing Sinjaari in 2020, and this lightly raced 4yo showed considerable promise earlier last year; very interesting contender. |

13th Oct 2023 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
A win and two seconds at novice level, best form when beaten a neck at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft) in August; rather disappointing when favourite for 1m2f handicap debut at Doncaster (soft) but there's been a rethink about his trip; trainer (runs two) won this race in 2019 and 2022. |

Beaten in Group races on his last ten starts but went close in the Yorkshire Cup at York (1m6f, good to firm) last May and he was a good third in that same Group 2 a fortnight ago (good); he should be fine back up in trip and might not be far away. |

In fine form this year over 1m6f-2m at Meydan and in Saudi Arabia and continued the good work when staying on for a close second in a slowly run Group 2 Yorkshire Cup (1m6f, good to firm) in May; no show when 25-1 at Royal Ascot (1m4f) on latest outing but shouldn't be far away in this lesser race if there's a decent pace to aim at. |

2024 Chesterfield Cup winner for Johnny Murtagh; failed to find his best form last season, including a spell in Britain; beaten favourite here behind the useful Genoah in two starts for this stable (handicap and a rated race); has run well enough in defeat both times, and is attractively treated on his old form. |

Usually races prominently; a mostly solid 2025 included 1m2f Listed wins in May and November; 2026 started in downbeat fashion (similar to last year) in Listed race and his top three ratings have been registered on softer than good; this is also a new trip (unraced beyond an extended 1m2f) but he's bred to get it and has a chance on best form; ground the chief worry. |

Excelled in top handicaps at York and Newmarket in 2023, including with a C&D win in the Cambridgeshire (good to firm; 3lb lower today); however, he only once threatened to hit those heights in 2024 and, after wind surgery, missed all of 2025; that leaves him with a 658-day absence to overcome but his handicap mark has been slashed. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Having dropped down the weights he returned to form when runner-up off today's mark at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) recently on his second start for this yard; however, he's 5-22 on AW as opposed to 0-11 on Flat turf, and needs to back up that latest performance now back on grass. |

12th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Has been a smart performer in his time (rated 18lb higher), but well below form in his last two starts including on stable debut here (1m2f) last month; tongue-tie removed after one use; look elsewhere. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Formerly a smart AW performer for Mick Appleby, but not quite the force of old; makes his debut for another new yard (same owners) in a new headgear combination after eight starts for Shark Hanlon; well treated if he could rediscover anything like his best form. |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Placed twice in a row in Bahrain earlier this year and didn't run badly when fifth of seven at Windsor in June following a three-month break; could build on that latest run and continues to drop down the weights, but he's without a win since July 2023 and others are more compelling. |

30th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Well treated on old form but his last win was almost two years ago; two placed efforts in Bahrain (1m1f/1m2f) earlier this year but he returned to Britain with a heavy defeat at Kempton in March; now drops back in grade but he's hard to predict and comes with risks attached after a break. |

29th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Made most when second in this race last year off 11lb higher, the last of only three ventures on AW; that has to catch the eye and he also has a chance on turf form for Charlie Johnston as recent as September; fit from placed efforts in Bahrain for new yard this year and a case can be made. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Looked very promising early in career; mixed fortunes since but beaten just a neck at Yarmouth in August last time (1m2f, good to soft; unraced on softer), when clear with unexposed Godolphin winner, and he's not ruled out. |
