17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Disappointed twice this summer but his fortunes have turned around spectacularly with a switch to blinkers and tongue-tie; won a weak Doncaster Cup (2m2f, good) on first occasion but followed up by narrowly getting the better of staying star Scandinavia in the Cadran at Longchamp (2m4f; for second year running) two weeks ago; he's a star himself (that was his third French Group 1 win) with the best form in this line-up and he needs great respect despite going back to 2m. |
7/2 |

1st 1 (6) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Group 1 wins at Longchamp last October (2m4f Cadran, very soft) and this May (near 2m, soft) and every bit as good when short-headed at Ascot (good to firm) earlier in May; however, he cracked in the final 2f of the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (2m4f) and underperformed in lesser Group company at York three weeks ago; gives plenty of weight all round but has a major shout if he returns to his best in first-time blinkers (which replace longstanding cheekpieces) and first tongue-tie. |
5/4 |

4th 1 (1) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Registered Group 1 wins at Longchamp last October (2m4f Cadran, very soft) and this May (near 2m, soft) and every bit as good when short-headed at Ascot (good to firm) earlier in May; 7-1 for the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (2m4f, good to firm) nine weeks ago and raced in second for a long way before cracking in the final 2f (vet reported signs of heat stress); concedes 3lb all round today but tried to go head-to-head with the best stayers around last time and they are now absent; good chance if back to form. |

1st Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Went back-to-back over C&D and at Chester last summer; 0-10 since last success but that was off 5lb higher and he gave it a good shot when a close third at Pontefract (1m4f, good) last week; has leading claims if he can back that up and he's still unexposed on AW. |
5/2 |

3rd 1 (6) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Went back-to-back last summer (about 1m4f, AW/good) but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; soft ground provides a possible excuse at Beverley last time but others are still preferred. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |

Went back-to-back last summer (about 1m4f, AW/good) and he's been beaten 3l or less on his last four starts, including in first-time cheekpieces (retained) four weeks ago; soft ground would be an unknown but he's below his last winning mark and drops back down in grade. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran who led close home over 1m5f here (good to firm) last month, his 13th success; also suited by this shorter trip, but was effectively 3lb below that last winning mark when only fourth over C&D a week later and his new mark has taken effect; younger rivals look better treated. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Veteran who was recording his 12th win at the track when leading close home over 1m5f last week; able to race off a 3lb lower mark today and he has to be of interest from a handicapping perspective. |
5/1 |

1st 6 (3) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |

Long in the tooth now and needs to better his recent efforts but was close third off 4lb higher at Hamilton (1m1f, good to firm) in May and is probably better suited by today's trip; can't rule out. |

Three staying wins on the AW but they were all in 2021 and his recent runs, especially over C&D last time out, haven't suggested he's about to end the losing run; usual aids left off. |

Two Lingfield AW wins (1m4f) for Mick Channon in 2021 and he also nabbed a handicap hurdle for Ben Pauling in 2023; some fair runs without winning for this yard but he has not been at his best since returning from a 406-day absence this season; career-low mark and he lost a shoe last time so worth a market check. |

Headed close home (Castel Gandolfo third) in this race last year; doesn't arrive in anywhere near the same kind of form this time around after finishing tailed off (beaten 50l) over 2m4f here last month; easing mark isn't enough to make a viable threat. |

Fair Flat-racer who won in first-time blinkers on the AW (2m; RPR 72) this summer and can probably be excused his recent defeat on heavy ground; showed only minor promise in three maiden hurdles last season but is open to improvement in handicaps this term; market reference recommended. |
