Has five C&D wins on his resume, including two Wokinghams and two Group 3s; getting on for two years since his last win though and this might be too competitive these days. |

Hold-up sprinter who has been a source of frustration since his last win in October 2023; on a lowly mark and his four C&D runs this year have all been competitive; shouldn't be far away. |

10yo who isn't the same force as last year and may not want soft ground, but he's performed respectably in hot handicaps on his last few starts and is on a dangerous mark now dropping back down in grade; possible player. |

Top-of-the-trees in the best sprint handicaps down the years, winning the Stewards' Cup in 2020 and the Gold Cup in 2022; failed to beat a rival here 12 months ago but the weight has fallen off his back since and his run at the Curragh last week was encouraging; could well have a decent crack at this; refitted cheekpieces replace regular visor. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
A tremendous campaigner over the years with two Stewards' Cups to his name; in and out this season and only twelfth in the Ayr Gold Cup three weeks ago, but he has clear possibilities on his fast-finishing second to stablemate Northern Ticker over C&D in August; 1lb lower today. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Two years since his last win but this dual Stewards' Cup winner is more realistically treated these days and he gave his younger stablemate Northern Ticker a race at York last month; not so good at Doncaster last week and he will do well to win this race in his fourth attempt (seventh in 2021, runner-up in 2022 and sixth last year). |

14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |

Hasn't won for just over two years and whether the extra half-furlong suits remains to be seen, but he kept on well for a head second of 20 at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago and that performance bodes well for a prominent showing today; versatile ground-wise. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Capable of smart form, such as placed efforts in two July Cups, but is getting long in the tooth and seems unlikely to break his Abernant duck at the fourth attempt (record in this race reads 404); losing spell goes back almost three years. |

9st 4lb |
Has run well at long odds in several Group 1s, including when second in this race in 2022 (150-1) and when third to No Half Measures in this year's July Cup (40-1), but he was never a threat in the Sprint Cup six weeks ago and his overall record is none too consistent. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Runner-up in the July Cup at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) in 2023 and, having been lightly raced since, he was a 2l third of 14 to No Half Measures in that same Group 1 two months ago (good to firm); each-way claims if reproducing that form but his profile indicates it's far from guaranteed. |

Back to his best at Meydan early this year, winning twice over 7f, including a Group 2; has possibilities on that form but he was only sixth of 16 in a 6f Group 1 at Royal Ascot last time and had no obvious excuses when fifth of nine behind Kinross in this race last year. |

Smart sort who was having his first outing in handicap company when a very good third of 17 at York's Ebor meeting, finishing strongly and away from where the main action unfolded; the 7f trip (last on previous attempt as a 2yo) and AW are unknowns but that York effort suggests he can win from this mark. |

Kept useful company last year, as when sixth of the 20 runners in the Commonwealth Cup; gelded in the autumn and lightly raced this term, but has run with credit in both starts as when beaten less than 2l into fifth of ten in a Group 3 at Newbury (6f, good to soft; first-time blinkers) 15 days ago; has the form to play a part from the inside stall, but may not want too much rain. |

Has won and gone close in Group 3s (5f) on this track; seems to have lost some firepower this year but she wasn't far away in a 6f Listed race here in May nor was she disgraced in the Group 1 Flying Five in Ireland recently; might have a better chance than these terms suggest, at least for a place. |

Prolific mare who was successful in this race in 2021 (off 5lb lower); more miss than hit in 2023 but her Group 3 third at York in July was up there with her best efforts; usually wears cheekpieces but blinkers are now tried; no surprise to see her go well as Michael Dods bids to win this race for the third season in a row. |

Good strike-rate on AW includes a Listed sprint double at Lingfield this year; has lots of good form on turf, including very close third in this race two years ago and respectable fourth in Newmarket Group 3 last time; still a maiden (0-19) in this sphere, however. |

Smart on turf but AW is his thing and he added another Listed win to his tally when dead-heating in the Kachy Stakes (6f) here three weeks ago; has a penalty to shoulder but that was also the case when he won the corresponding race in 2024 (run at Southwell); a lower draw would have been preferable but he looks set to go well again. |
