21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Some good efforts over 5f this year but he has met his match in Group races won by Rumstar, Cover Up and American Affair on his last three starts and has it to prove in this company. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
6yo who has been campaigned over further for the majority of his career but he's been a progressive sprinter this season, finishing third in a Group 3 at Sandown (5f, good) on July 4 then runner-up in Group 2 at the Curragh (5f, good to firm) last time; however, this tougher race demands more. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |

British challenger a five-time handicap winner, most recently scoring off 92 at York in May; creditable first run in stakes company in a Sandown Group 3 last time when a 1.25l third behind the 110-rated Rumstar; that's solid form and Colin Keane keeps the faith; place chance. |

9st 3lb |
Completed a hat-trick in 0-50 classified events in January including two wins here (7f/1m); has found life tougher in handicaps since then, though, and may need a return to the basement level. |

Nailed a rapid AW classified hat-trick in January for Ian Williams but her subsequent form in handicaps for that yard and this doesn't compare; maybe her return to this sphere will help but she needs to get back on track. |

Legs two and three of her January hat-trick for Ian Williams came here (7f/1m); went off the boil for him and hard to fancy on what she's done in three starts for this yard. |

Not long with this yard but gained eighth career win here over 1m when coming late off much reduced mark last month; failed to back that up from 6lb higher last week; veteran is opposable on these terms. |

No wins from 21 races; sent off the 9-2 favourite at Gowran for stable debut under today's rider but weakened inside the final furlong to finish sixth of 16; perhaps capable of more with that run under his belt considering his strength in the market that day. |
