9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Formerly with William Haggas and Willie Mullins; consistent for this yard and deserved his battling win over C&D latest; can run well again off just 3lb higher. |

1st 1 (9) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Not the force of old but he retains ability and has performed with credit for his new yard this year, most recently finishing second of nine at Pontefract 12 days ago (6f, good); down in class today and should go well despite his small rise in the weights. |
4/1 |

2nd 8 (3) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Form for new yard this term comprises two placed efforts over 1m and a running-on sixth over 7f; useful over 6f early in career but isn't crying out for the return to this trip. |

19th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Has won just one of his last 17 races and was tailed off in the Group 2 Challenge Stakes at Newmarket last week; would be a shock winner. |

14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Has blown hot and cold this season, best efforts when beaten a nose in Group 2 Duke of York (6f, good) in May and when winning Group 3 at Deauville (6f, good to soft) in July; faced stiff task but well held even so in Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock last week; has a chance if on a going day. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Two wins and a close second to his name in four runs over C&D; tended to be hot and cold in the past, twice winning back-to-back, which bodes well after bouncing back off 4lb lower at Yarmouth last time; goes well for Luke Morris too. |
7/2 |

1st 3 (2) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
AW win in January and went close 19 days later; unplaced in both turf starts this spring and he needs to raise his game. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (7) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in January on second start since returning to this stable and he went close over that same C&D next time; ran creditably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) 17 days ago but he has a better strike-rate on the AW (1-24 on turf). |

1st 1 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
He's on a hat-trick in this race and followed last year's win by also scoring at Windsor and Yarmouth (all 5f on good to firm in cheekpieces) in August; no wins since but he didn't get much cover when midfield over C&D one week ago and his race record means he can't be discounted; also ran well sole previous go in a visor. |
11/4 |
|
7th 7 (12) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
C&D record reads 131, the defeat coming behind Emperor Spirit in this race last year; 5lb lower than for his last win and although he's yet to really shine this year, the booking of Oisin Murphy is notable; contender with frequent cheekpieces now discarded. |
11/2 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
C&D win last August came off a 3lb higher mark; encouraging reappearance here five weeks ago and today's ground will be more suitable; solid claims dropped into a Class 4. |
11/2 |
Verdict
Alpha Capture and Shouldvebeenaring (preferred in that order) won at Listed level on turf last summer but both were below their best in the same Newcastle conditions race on their AW debuts in October and neither has raced again since. Preference is for MICHAELA’S BOY, who may face some competition for the early lead from Rocking Ends but ended 2022 in excellent form and could be hard to catch if able to dominate here.[Chris Wilson]
