29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Likes this C&D and won this race in 2024; creditable fourth to Stem here in July but then ran poorly at Ascot; now has cheekpieces fitted. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
He was attempting to win a 1m2f Sandown handicap for the second successive year when fourth (Theory Of Tides second) three weeks ago; will need more on this second attempt at 1m4f (finished fifth on AW three years ago). |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |

Second course success when winning this off 1lb higher on good to firm under Rossa Ryan last year; disappointed on Pontefract reappearance but looked back on form when keeping on from the rear for fourth (Spoken Truth second) of ten in the Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) at the end of May; can make a bold bid in this race again. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Winning touch has deserted him since taking back-to-back novices in the spring of 2024; has run some good races during the losing sequence and testing ground won't hold him back, but even if right on his game these weights are unfavourable. |

11th 5 (16) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Useful but he is 0-12 since a Doncaster novice double in spring 2024 and not particularly solid on 2026 form; on a difficult mark returned to handicap level and isn't sure to uphold a consistent Sandown record. |

6th 1 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Useful but is 0-12 since completing a Doncaster novice double in spring 2024, essentially proving quite difficult to place; hasn't strictly improved for a switch to hold-up tactics this term (seemingly being taught to settle better); unlikely to regain the winning thread on these terms. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Won Meydan handicap (9.5f, good) in March but has been mostly treading water since, finishing last of eight in Group 3 at Goodwood four weeks ago; back down in grade but others still make more appeal. |

8th 4 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won Meydan handicap (9.5f, good) in March and ran well in defeat in Listed races on next two starts (including here over 1m2f); however, no match for Al Aasy in Listed race at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) four weeks ago and others have more substance to their claims. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very useful gelding who landed 9.5f handicap in Meydan in March; posted a good fourth in Goodwood Listed event in May but last of six in similar company there (1m4f) last month; needs to bounce back. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Useful on his day but has become inconsistent, latterly at Meydan, notwithstanding a January performance that's his sole win for current yard; the 9yo can be opposed back on British soil; tongue-tie fitted. |

8th 6 (8) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Useful weights turnaround with Flying Frontier on C&D form last August and also with Arabian Light from Meydan (1m1f) in February; however, some question marks about his form since and whether he really wants a stiff test at 1m2f has yet to be proved. |
20/1 |

10 (23) |
18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Record of 0-17 for current yard doesn't tell the whole story, as he's capable of very useful form; last few efforts don't augur well, however, and he came up short (finished 11th) in this race in 2024. |

On a losing run but was only beaten 3l at Windsor last time (1m, good) and the winner went in again at Doncaster last weekend; handles this ground and should go well. |

Didn't always look straightforward for Andrew Balding for whom his form petered out; however, he won two of his eight races (1m/1m2f) for that yard and has joined another good one to go hurdling; bought for 20,000gns. |
