21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Tremendous progress last season; odds-on flop when rather forced to make the running in the Yorkshire Cup here on 2026 return; ran on nicely for a creditable sixth of 12 in a very strong Hardwicke at Royal Ascot (1m4f) next time but unseated leaving the stalls with a mishap in the Goodwood Cup (2m; 17-2); that leaves his stamina unproven but he stays at least 1m6f; unraced on softer than good to yielding; a leading contender if he gets this new trip and there's fair chance he will. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Two wins here in May initiated his tremendous progress last season; flopped at odds-on when he was rather forced to make the running in Yorkshire Cup on 2026 reappearance, but he ran on nicely for a creditable sixth of 12 in a very strong Hardwicke at Royal Ascot (1m4f) next time; stays 1m6f and has each-way claims if he gets this new trip. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Unraced on ground slower than good to yielding; disappointing favourite in the Yorkshire Cup on reappearance but that's his only blip in an otherwise progressive career; justified favouritism in the King Edward VII Stakes over C&D at this meeting (good to firm) 12 months ago, taking record at that time to 5-5, then ran well in the Irish St Leger and Breeders' Cup Turf; possibilities, provided his upward trajectory is resumed. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who put everything together to win maiden here (7f, good) last month, strong at the finish; should be suited by this return to 1m and is open to further improvement now tackling a handicap. |
7/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
20th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten a neck on debut (7f, AW) last August and respectable third at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) on third attempt; left Simon Pearce (same owners) before a disappointing show in a first-time tongue-tie and had wind surgery later in April; the form pick if judged on debut. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Took eight starts to break his duck but he's now strung three improving efforts together, scoring at Catterick (7f, good to soft) and by over 3l at Epsom (7f, good to firm) latest; up 7lb; his prominent style of racing and the stiff track may enable him to cope with the drop to 6f; unexposed and interesting. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Can make the running and he went on before halfway when gamely winning a six-runnner handicap at Catterick (7f, good to soft) five weeks ago, getting off the mark at eighth attempt; back up 2lb and unraced on good to firm, with this track a new experience too, but that latest run gives him a shot. |
11/4 |

1st 1 (4) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced maiden; tends to pull hard but sound run when third at Yarmouth last time (7f, good); can make the running which would be an asset round here; interesting. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins have been at Kempton and latest was over C&D last June; now 1lb lower than for that success but he's been up and down since and was quiet on his reappearance here in May; comes with risks attached. |
14/1 |
|
10th 5 (2) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three wins from nine Kempton starts, including over C&D last spring on his comeback; returns from five months off close to his last successful mark and there are positives, with the usual headgear in place. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Four-time AW winner but he's 0-7 on turf and has been well held back in this sphere in three runs after wind surgery; mark continues to fall but he needs to significantly raise his game back up in trip. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins and best form has been on the AW over 6f; third over that far at Yarmouth last time but was comfortably held; back at 5f from a high draw, he looks up against it. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 (10) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ended 2025 with two good AW runs at Kempton; down the field in three AW starts this year and he had been given a wind op before weakening on his return to turf at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago; nothing wrong with this mark and he drops in grade but the jury's out at the moment. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Lost his way during the AW season, but returned from break with fairly encouraging run last month and now switches back to turf on an attractive mark; will be dangerous if that recent outing brought him on. |
12/1 |
|
6th 9 (9) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Looks interesting on some runner-up efforts (6f/7f) last summer but he was quiet during the winter including over 7f on Polytrack; record is now 0-12 and he has something to prove after 155 days off. |
25/1 |
|
7th 6 |
8th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

No wins in 11 and hasn't been close to his best form on last three appearances; returning to 7f is a likely plus but others look safer. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in four of his five races, latterly in a small field on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (1m6f); this is deeper but can win a race off this mark and cheekpieces now go on. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
12th May 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Better as he's gained experience and gone up in distance, culminating in a second over 1m4f here on his comeback early last month; should be competitive off this sort of mark now handicapping under Billy Loughnane, who's 4-16 for the yard. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner last April; looked an unlucky loser when runner-up at Beverley (1m4f, good) in June but he's been below his best in both starts since; needs to return to form back on the AW. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 (1) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
A dual 1m4f AW winner (also scored over hurdles) in 2025; running with credit without winning this season until only fourth of five at Beverley (1m4f) 13 days ago; he's the sort to bounce back in a change of headgear. |
100/30 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Three wins in 2025, two on the AW (1m4f) and once over hurdles; banging at the door on turf this summer, second over C&D ten days ago when not enjoying a clear run; another good run seems likely. |
