16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Usually races prominently; a mostly solid 2025 included 1m2f Listed wins in May and November; 2026 started in downbeat fashion (similar to last year) in Listed race and his top three ratings have been registered on softer than good; this is also a new trip (unraced beyond an extended 1m2f) but he's bred to get it and has a chance on best form; ground the chief worry. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Won the Cambridgeshire here (1m1f, soft) last autumn; also scored in a Listed race at Goodwood (1m2f, good) this May and respectable 2l fourth of six to Damysus in 1m1f course Group 3 (good to firm) three weeks ago; unlikely to be far away despite his 3lb penalty. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Acts on soft and good to firm; has the makings of a Group performer judged on his smart handicap form this term, notably close second off top weight in the Royal Hunt Cup; prominent for a long way in the Sussex Stakes over C&D most recently, fading only inside the final furlong; major player back down in class. |

8st 12lb |
9yo who went 0-10 last year but he's well handicapped on the pick of last season's efforts, which came in the spring, and his Doncaster form-figures of 1413 catch the eye on his first visit here since 2023; interesting. |

Having tumbled down the weights he returned to form in a 1m1f handicap here last month, winning decisively; second over 1m2f at Ripon on Sunday, staying on at the finish; up in trip but likely to go well. |

Triple turf winner (7f/1m) but his last success was in August 2023 and he's been out of sorts since returning in September from a lengthy absence; mark is tumbling but he needs a major revival. |

9st 9lb |
Won an amateur riders' race off a mark 2lb higher than today's at York (1m2f, good) last June but he didn't match that level on his six subsequent starts; never-dangerous sixth of ten at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) when last seen 181 days ago and has since undergone his second wind operation; each-way claims on his return. |

Hasn't been at his very best since his 1m2f win at York in June but he's back to only 1lb above that successful mark and is a dual soft-ground scorer. |

Usually slowly away; lost his form last autumn but he's thrown in judged on plenty of earlier 2025 form, never mind peak efforts; first run since he left Gemma Tutty for 9,000gns in December and the market may guide. |

Stuck on a losing run but competitive in 7f/1m handicaps this year (and a seller) and heavy ground perhaps not ideal the last time; could go well. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
9yo who is winless since June 2024 and is nothing like the force of old; however, his recent 4l fourth of eight at Hamilton (8.3f, good) wasn't devoid of promise and he's another 3lb lower today; not ruled out each-way. |

4th 2 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Useful C&D winner at his best, but this veteran is without a victory since June 2024 and has offered little in a pair of handicaps (around 1m) at Doncaster and Beverley this spring; cheekpieces are retried. |
10/1 |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Useful miler in his prime but his last win was almost two years ago and he's been well held at Newcastle and Doncaster in last two starts; continues to drop down the weights but others are preferred. |

Multiple wins at 1m and 1m1f (good or softer) include two over C&D; quite favourably treated now and he was a very respectable fourth at Ripon recently, when just behind a subsequent winner; needs a bit more here. |
16/1 |

4th 2 (6) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Two wins last year (1m/1m1f, good/soft); the last of them came in a seller and he was well beaten on last month's reappearance at Doncaster, but that was the competitive Spring Mile and he may have needed the run; won this in 2022 and he's not discounted off a handy mark. |

Sole success came in Redcar novice in April 2023 when trained by the Gosdens; unsuccessful in five starts over hurdles this year for current yard and three modest efforts on the Flat since; on a career-low mark but hard to fancy. |

29th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |

Something to prove regarding current form but he's tackled 7f/1m1f the last twice and is now 7lb lower than when a creditable fourth over 1m4f at Southwell (AW) last August; not written off now back up in trip. |

Enhanced his good Ripon record with a narrow win over this trip on good to soft last month; faded to finish well held at Chester since (Londoner ahead of him) but a revival can't be ruled out back here. |

8th 7 (14) |

Five wins last year, one of them over C&D, and he's back on the scoresheet already after his narrow win at Ripon three weeks ago; up 5lb and drawn widest, but the first two were clear last time and he's never been better. |

He's not the force of old (third in the French Derby in 2021) but, having dropped down the weights, he went close at Haydock (1m, heavy) a fortnight ago; testing ground may suit best but that's not guaranteed; a contender if backing up that latest performance. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

His three wins in Britain have all come over 1m at York but he is fully effective at other tracks and he wasn't beaten far in his one Sandown run back in June 2022 (1m, good to firm); rain won't bother him and he's slipped to a dangerous mark but he will need a good pace to aim at back at 7f; stable have won the last two runnings. |
