11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Short-head winner at the other Newmarket track (1m6f, good to firm; made all) on second start this term and nearly made it 3-3 under Saffie Osborne at Goodwood (1m6f, good; led over 1f out) later in May, holding Dancing In Paris by a short head but pipped by subsequent Royal Ascot winner French Master; up 2lb today, as is Dancing In Paris, and looks a leading contender. |

24th May 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Immediately back to best with his two runs this season, tenaciously making all for a short-head win at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) on latest; that made it 2-2 under Saffie Osborne; 5lb higher today; big question to answer were the ground softer than good but he otherwise looks set to run well. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Over two years since her last win but she's on a dangerous mark and has been running well since June, including when second over the extended 1m4f at Chester (soft) five weeks ago; good Catterick record includes a win over this trip; solid. |
5/2 |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Over two years since her last win but she's on a dangerous mark and hasn't been far away in her last three races, albeit over further (2m/1m6f); she does look vulnerable at this trip and was well beaten in her previous visit here. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Gained a first win in over two years at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in July; 3lb lower today, as he's not been so good recently, including over C&D on latest outing; others therefore have more pressing claims. |
20/1 |
|
6th 8 (9) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Gained a first win in over two years at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in July and creditable third over C&D (good to firm again) later that month; hasn't reached the same level since but now 2lb below that successful mark and could bounce back for in-form yard. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |

Gained a first win in over two years over C&D in July but he has been well held in a pair of handicaps at Ripon since; needs to take a big step forward. |

17th Mar 2025 Good 2m 0f 190y |
11st 12lb |
Decent performer on the Flat, winning twice and rated 87 at his peak; hooded (retained) and tailed off on his Irish and hurdles debut on heavy at Punchestown last month; ground more suitable now but can only be watched after that last effort. |
80/1 |
|
9th 3 |
24th Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 0f 157y |
11st 12lb |
Useful form on the Flat for Ed Bethell including a 1m6f win off 82; hood goes on for his stable/hurdles debut; stays at least 2m on the level so this may not be a sufficient stamina test; probably best watched, especially on this ground. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Notoriously hard to win with and, bar a Uttoxeter maiden hurdle, he hasn't scored since landing a French conditions race in 2022; respectable fourth of 12 at York (16.5f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; same mark. |
6/1 |
|
4th 3 (12) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
His last Flat win came in France in 2022 but he won over hurdles last autumn and was a clear second of five to stablemate High Fibre in this code at Newmarket (2m, good to firm) last month; probably versatile ground-wise and holds each-way possibilities. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Hasn't scored under this code since his French days in 2022 but looks interesting with usual visor removed, having gained all wins (Flat/hurdles) without headgear; yard also runs High Fibre. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Chance on November's Doncaster hurdles second, less so on all which has followed; unexposed in this sphere, with one start over fences compared to the other trio's 41 combined, but none too convincing on that belated chase debut at Wetherby latest (1m7f, good), jumping left and weakening. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
27th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 36y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper/Flat/hurdles winner; on a handy mark but his form has dipped in 2026, so this switch to fences needs to have a reviving effect; latecomer to this game, being a 10yo. |
13/2 |
|
6th 1 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Unable to beat a rival on AW on last two starts but could be a different proposition now back hurdling and back here, as two visits to Doncaster (both C&D) have yielded an easy novice win (good) and a good second in a handicap (soft; in November); very much of interest given record at the track. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Chase/hurdle winner who won on the AW at Lingfield in February 2025; hasn't been in top form on his last couple of runs over hurdles; on a fair mark now. |
20/1 |
|
14 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Useful on the Flat in his prime but suffered heavy defeat in that sphere last month, after a layoff, and also struggled in a handicap hurdle three weeks ago; sports refitted cheekpieces; others have much less to prove. |
25/1 |
|
6th 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Seven-time Flat winner who has also scored over hurdles (2m1f, soft) and fences (2m, good); on dangerous mark back over jumps but he's not seen much action in the last 12 months and has been tailed off in his last two Flat runs; risks attached. |

20th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Runs here regularly and landed his third course win (second over today's distance) in March off 3lb lower; returns from a break and likely to need the run. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Two wins at Newcastle (1m, AW) this year, including on his latest start last month; 2lb out of the handicap today and he's 0-13 on turf, but has been placed a few times on grass and is not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just 2-33 but both wins have come here, the latest over C&D last month; found to be lame when down the field two days later and 7f looked too sharp when third here three weeks ago; he's one to consider now back up in trip. |
9/2 |
