22nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Chepstow winner over 1m2f in May and made a winning AW debut at Kempton over 1m3f in June; never featured from off the pace in a race not run to suit there over 1m4f last month but could go well back down in class, particularly if they go a decent gallop. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Chepstow winner in May over 1m2f and made a winning AW debut here over 1m3f in June (had the hood removed); raised 6lb for that success but he should have no problem with the extra furlong and has good claims. |
9/2 |

Has endured a couple of lengthy absences in his seven-race career but showed the ability remains when successful in a first-time hood (now removed) at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) last month; half-brother to a couple of AW winners and shortlisted; stable also runs Mathematician. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His last two 7f wins came off just a 1lb lower mark, most recently in February, but he wasn't at his best in two runs last month on turf and the AW; others higher up the list. |
14/1 |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won off 3lb lower at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February; good second over 6f at Newcastle next time but his form has cooled in last two starts; bit to prove again and he needs to bounce back near best. |
12/1 |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins have been at 7f but he was a good second over this trip at Newcastle on AW finals day; didn't pack the same punch when fifth at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time but he's still unexposed as a sprinter and is not ruled out back in trip. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

She won a heavy-ground 2yo novice in October 2024 but is 0-13 since and judged on recent evidence it's probably best to look elsewhere. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Only win in 17 races came in a 2yo novice for former yard; fairly well held this year from 6f to 1m2f but has never been lower in the weights. |

6th 13 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won 1m2f Bath novice as 2yo but just middling form from the front here of late, over 1m2f, 7f and 6f; dropping down the weights but this is competitive and the other two from the yard look more interesting. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Smart efforts in defeat at Listed/Group 3 level last season but hasn't come close to reproducing that form returned to handicaps this season, including with cheekpieces added last time; being eased another 3lb can only help but leap of faith needed. |
20/1 |

11th 8 (13) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won on soft as 2yo; reappearance win last April saw him pitched afterwards into Listed and Group events, in which he was initially on the premises but his handicap mark shot up as a result; ninth of 12 to Respond at Chester wasn't a greatly auspicious return to handicap company on reappearance this season and connections now reach for headgear. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |

Highly tried after making a winning reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, good) a year ago; proven fresh, but hard to know how well treated he is for this return to handicap company. |

21st Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Showed steady progress in turf maidens (final effort has substance); well held, having failed to settle, in 1m2f AW nursery last time but may resume improvement back at 1m. |
12/1 |

8th 1 (1) |
10th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Well-bred colt who has improved with each of his three runs and was beaten less than 3l when fifth in a Bath maiden (1m, good) last month; now takes another step up in trip and he needs a close look on nursery/AW debut. |
7/1 |

14th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Reached the frame on second start, when upped to 7f at Musselburgh in August, but it wasn't strong form and he's another who would prefer the ground to dry out. |

9st 10lb |
Both wins came at Nottingham (1m2f) in July last year, but has been unplaced in all ten outings since despite a declining mark; down another 2lb and headgear is removed, but probably best watched for now. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Won two in a row at Nottingham (1m2f, good/good to soft) last summer; out of sorts this term but this sort of trip (attempted just the twice, ran well once) could be something to clutch at, as well as another career-low mark. |
7/1 |

6th 6 (4) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won two in a row at Nottingham (1m2f, good/good to soft) last summer but she's been out of sorts this season and failed to beat a rival at Nottingham last time; now 8lb lower than for her last success but she needs to turn things around. |

The trip and conditions will be fine but she's lost her form in a major way since the winter; leap of faith is required to support her now. |

21st Sep 2026 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Versatile regarding trip/ground but very little has gone to plan during this season's light campaign; ran as though something was amiss at Bath 19 days ago; leap of faith required to support her here. |

9th 1 (7) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hampered by faller and pulled up at Lingfield in May, and withdrawn here three days later when jockey had concerns over how filly was moving and was not prepared to ride; however, she was just 7-2 at the time of withdrawal and this C&D winner is capable of playing a leading role off her last winning mark. |

Won a fillies' novice (8.6f) at Wolverhampton on her return in May but she has found it tough going in handicaps since; now drops into a Class 6 but others are more appealing for win purposes. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
4yo who has shown career-best form at Hamilton on his last three starts, with two wins (6f/5f, good to soft/soft) sandwiching a near-miss (6f, soft); capable of running well elsewhere and he showed promise here in May; unexposed at 5f and this progressive sort is in calculations. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (5) |
28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Has a record of 5-17, all wins at 6f; head second, clear of remainder, last Monday (soft) when bidding to take his Hamilton record to 3-3; likely to cope with the drop in distance and holds leading claims off same mark turned out before he's reassessed. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 1 (8) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
From humble beginnings he's done so well in 6f turf handicaps and a recent win from in-form rivals here (good to soft; second was wide-margin winner on Saturday) took him to 2-2 over this C&D; up 4lb but he's from an illustrious sprinting family and he can continue a stealthy upward climb. |

Out of a Listed/Group 2 winner; 14-1, made a low-key start over 7f on Chelmsford AW last month and although he could come on plenty for the run the more likely outcome is that he'll need this, too. |
