20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Uncharacteristically below par at Ascot recently but was under a new rider in the Shergar Cup; he's run really well in defeat under Danny Tudhope in some hot handicaps this year and was second in this last season (good to firm); versatile ground-wise; could bounce back with a big performance. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Finished second behind Ebt's Guard in this race 12 months ago when rated 14lb lower; he has earned his lofty rating since then, winning twice at Goodwood last autumn and recording a career-best RPR when second of 18 in the Golden Mile at Goodwood eight days ago; another big run anticipated. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Blew his chance at the start in most recent handicap attempt but generally consistent otherwise in the last year and ties in with several of today's rivals on Royal Hunt Cup form; 2-2 at Goodwood and looks interesting back here despite remaining on a career-high mark. |

Won two of his first three starts (second to the subsequent 2000 Guineas winner in between the wins); some fair races on turf this summer and could prove well handicapped back on AW. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Made it 2-3 at Musselburgh when winning there over 7f in April off a 1lb lower mark than today's; beaten only 4l when seventh of 19 at York (7f, good) 11 days ago but stamina has to be a concern on just his third try over a 1m. |

Won at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April, making it 2-3 at the Edinburgh venue, and he's just 2lb higher today; can't be totally dismissed but this 9yo is inconsistent and was soundly beaten at Thirsk (7f, good) last time. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Mostly creditable efforts in 2025 and he won at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) in August; Chester's extended 1m2f possibly stretched his stamina last time; could bounce back but as a 7yo he's more exposed than some of these. |
10/1 |

7th 3 (2) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Modest strike-rate of 3-37 but his last win was at Thirsk (7f) last month and he ran another good race when a close third at Newmarket (1m) last time; now goes into unknown territory at this trip but he ran well over 1m1f in July and he's not ruled out; acts on good to firm and good to soft. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
8yo who has displayed mixed form this season and was below par over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago, but he showed spark when third of 22 over C&D (good) two starts ago and he has an excellent record in this race, having won it in 2023 and dead-heated for first last year; respected. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Two-time C&D winner and has also run with distinction in defeat here on numerous occasions; retains plenty of ability despite his advancing years but he would be better suited by slower conditions. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Gained a deserved first success of 2026 in 20-runner handicap at Ripon (6f) 13 days ago; not out of things despite a 5lb weights rise. |

1st 7 (10) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Better known for his exploits over further but he ran well for second in a C&D handicap last August; several good runs in defeat this year but this looks a competitive race in which to end a two-year drought. |

4th 15 (10) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Without a win since August 2024 but he's been in good form since this visor went on, bumping into an unexposed 3yo when second of four at Catterick (7f, good to firm) and again finishing runner-up at Chester (7.5f, good) last time; in each-way calculations once more. |

Won a Newbury conditions race last September (7f, soft); best run since when winning Lingfield AW handicap last time (7f; 10-1); up 6lb, acts on good to firm and could go well. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The most recent of his six wins came at Lingfield (7f, AW) in April 2025 off a mark 3lb higher than today's but he has posted some good efforts since; however, he was below his best at Salisbury 19 days ago and needs to bounce back with cheekpieces back on. |

Winless since 2024 but this veteran arrives in decent nick, runner-up at Newbury (7f) in June before a creditable tenth of 17 in 7f Ascot handicap last month; not totally dismissed. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Admirable teenager with 12 wins to his name, including one over C&D; best recent effort when second of 12 at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last month; should be on the premises again. |

2nd 4 (5) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Admirable teenager who has a better strike-rate on the AW, but he has won over this C&D; finished a long way behind Signcastle City at York (7f, good) last month and probably best watched. |
