2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 10lb lower mark; as good as ever when fourth of eight at Wolverhampton (7f, Listed) in March but has found it tougher going since; apprentice's claim is useful but he still has little margin for error off this mark. |
9/1 |

8th 3 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Comfortable winner of a C&D handicap (good to firm) last August; better than ever when a close fourth in a Listed event at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March but he's been well held in both subsequent runs and latest was in a C&D; has bit to prove again and this looks a tough task on the figures. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Never easily knocked when competing here; had no excuses behind a couple of these 12 days ago but ran his usual sold race; has won on slow and fast ground. |
10/1 |

4th 9 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Form dipped slightly when never-dangerous favourite in Class 3 here three weeks ago, following two seconds and a win (all also C&D) on previous three starts; back to Class 4 and, like most of these, has each-way claims. |
7/1 |

7th 14 (7) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
In excellent form of late and ended a long losing run with a deserved fourth C&D win in eight-runner contest a week ago; very much one to consider under a 4lb penalty with Oisin Murphy again up. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Steps up further in class but he has progressive York form and brings impressive stats, being 3-4 over C&D (gained last win cosily in good-ground Listed race) and 4-9 in headgear, which is reapplied with Newmarket reappearance under his belt; has a better chance than bare ratings suggest. |
12/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Has form on the Newmarket tracks but recorded last three wins at York, including when beating Crestofdistinction with more in hand than the narrow margin suggests in Listed grade on most recent appearance; likely to be more interesting when back at that venue. |

28th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Dual AW winner who gave it a good shot upped to 7f when third in a Newbury handicap (soft) in September; left the Crisfords for 32,000gns since; goes back up in grade for new yard but she's only had five handicap runs and could have more to offer at this trip; one to keep an eye on. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Yet to score this term but his sixth of 21 at the Ebor festival (6f, good to firm) indicated he might be rediscovering his level; that didn't prove the case at Windsor last time but he's too well handicapped to ignore and rain would certainly not hinder him. |
10/1 |
|
9th 16 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Saw out 2025 with three AW wins from his final four starts but he's played only minor roles in turf handicaps this year, including when beaten nearly 5l behind King Of Light over C&D in May; could do with some rain or, failing that, a return to the AW as he's well treated now. |
25/1 |
|
6th 15 (12) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ended 2025 in fine form on AW; 0-7 in 2026 but he has slipped 6lb below his last winning mark and has Toby Moore taking another 7lb off his back; suspicion a few will prove stronger. |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Over two years since his last success but he retains some ability and begins life with his new stable off a lowly mark (left Julie Camacho for £7,000 last month); others appeal more. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
His last win was in June 2023 but that was off 12lb higher at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) and he's run several good races this season; wasn't beaten far with visor added at Southwell last time and he's in the mix back on turf. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

This easier off his last winning mark for a yard among the winners of late; has only been beyond sprint trips twice during a long career, though, and has stamina to prove. |

3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Potentially well handicapped but was sluggish after a break over C&D in January. |

19th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Capitalised on the drop into Class 6 company when winning over C&D last October; came up short in Class 5 company twice afterwards and although he should be well treated on historical evidence, he may prove up against it back from 11 weeks off. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Excels here and ran another good race at the track when a closing third behind Under The Twilight, having got behind; a faster pace today would play to his strengths; no ground concerns. |
11/2 |

3rd 6 (4) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
9yo who's an eight-time Windsor winner, including this May and June; beat Amazonian Dream in the latter race and runner-up to him here next time, before not disgraced on a first crack at Brighton; reliable sort from off the pace and he has each-way claims again. |
10/1 |
|
5th 4 (7) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Eight-time Windsor winner, including twice of late, who's having a first run round here; ultra-consistent, especially considering his age and that he's usually dropped in, but there's little room for manoeuvre off this mark; yard also responsible for Duskaura. |
