26th Sep 2024 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Third in a Class 2 at the Newmarket July meeting before 4l winner from the front at Sandown (both 1m2f, good) in August; creditable fourth of 12 in 1m4f York Ebor meeting handicap (good to firm) last time and has to be a player back in slightly calmer waters; showed promise on soft last year. |

9st 11lb |
7f novice win as 2yo; better form in defeat in handicaps this year, finishing second over 1m1f here (good to firm) before a good third of ten in a traditionally very strong 3yo event at the Newmarket July meeting (1m2f, good) four weeks ago; should go well. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
1-22 for Alan King, with his sole win in June 2024; had a respectable first two runs for new yard over C&D this season, before tailed off on good to firm at York four weeks ago; now 6lb below his peak mark. |
12/1 |

13th 2 (7) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His sole win came back in June 2024 but he often runs well and was third of seven at Chester (2m, good) four weeks ago on his second stable start; might be in with an each-way shout. |
16/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Much respected on his form for Alan King, for all that he was 1-22 for that yard; following a 30,000gns sale he ran okay over C&D on last month's stable debut, but no more than that. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Decent 3yo who's enjoyed a revival round Chepstow of late, beating a subsequent winner off 7lb lower last month before following up a fortnight ago; every chance of completing the hat-trick. |
3/1 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Prevailed by 1l in C&D contest (good to firm) last month on only his fourth start for current yard; back up only 3lb he remains attractively handicapped on 3yo form; respected. |
5/4 |

1st 1 (1) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Losing run up to 14, but now 22lb below his last winning mark and showed a bit more when fourth of nine at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) last time; that form is working out quite well and one to be interested in. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 8lb |
Running okay without really threatening to win this season; not terrible efforts the last twice at the Curragh (1m2f, gd-fm) and on latest at Galway (1m4f, yld-sft) but probably needs a bit more help from the handicapper to get his head back in front. |
12/1 |

8th 8 (15) |
31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Ran poorly over hurdles at Listowel in May but last two runs on the Flat have been decent; 4l second of 10 at Leopardstown in early May (1m4f, good); 4.75l fourth of 12 at the Curragh 34 days ago; place claims off 1lb lower but needs to find a bit more to win. |
16/1 |

4th 1 (8) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Three-time winner on the Flat on good/good to firm ground; some useful runs in defeat over hurdles; something amiss over hurdles last time; started Flat campaign with a good run over 1m4f at Leopardstown. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
In-form 5yo who won twice over C&D last month (good/good to firm); probably doesn't have much margin for error after latest 4lb rise but ought to be on the premises again. |
4/1 |
|
1st 1 (9) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple turf winner who made it 2-2 over C&D when bouncing back with a comfortable success (good) three weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 3lb higher and he won't mind if the forecast rain arrives; key player. |
4/1 |
|
1st 7 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Needs to rebound from a substandard AW run ten days ago but made the frame on two of three turf starts in the spring (both times over 1m1f) and this longer trip probably suits better; can't be ignored off current mark. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
Close third at Worcester (2m, good) on both starts since returned to hurdling in June; not yet fully exposed over hurdles, but moves up from Class 5 today and the forecast rain may not be in his favour. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
A fair 1m2f scorer on the Flat who got off the mark in this sphere in 2m Stratford handicap last June; back from ten months off with a promising third of eight over C&D two weeks ago, finishing well having suffered a poor run from two out; very much one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won with tongue-tie added in a Stratford handicap (2m, good) last June but he's been well held over hurdles and on the Flat in last two starts; may have needed his reappearance run at Chester last month but his form is patchy and he's still 6lb higher than for his hurdle win; others preferred. |
