25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Enjoyed his finest hour when winning the Palace Of Holyrood House Stakes at the Royal meeting in 2024; gained his first win since when narrowly landing a 5f handicap at Musselburgh in April; two solid efforts have followed and he would appear likely to make another bold bid. |

6th 1 (13) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
In-form 5yo; overcame trouble to win at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in April and was a creditable fourth in a big field here (6f, good) ten days ago; should be thereabouts again off an unchanged mark. |
10/1 |
|
4th 9 (3) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Mixed fortunes since winning the 5f 3yo handicap at Royal Ascot in 2024 (good to firm); got back on track to win at Musselburgh (5f, soft) last month despite being denied a clear run; his peak performances have come at 5f but he was a C&D winner in his 2yo season; respected up just 3lb for last time. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
4yo who is 0-8; beat only one rival home at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in June and dropped away inside the final furlong there over 5f last time following a wind operation/three weeks off; back on turf having been dropped another 3lb. |
10/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced 4yo (0-7) who only beat one home on her return from six months off here (6f) in June; off another three months having undergone wind surgery and it needs to have made a difference. |
16/1 |
|
2 (9) |
16th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
0-6 and has mixed record, but she's well treated on her stand-out effort for Tim Easterby and wasn't disgraced in a Southwell maiden (5f) when last seen in December; now goes handicapping on her return and needs watching in market back up in trip. |

6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Two best runs have been on the AW over 6f, winning a novice and then close up under a penalty; just threatening to lose his way and cheekpieces didn't bring much to the party last time; now goes in blinkers. |
13/2 |
|
6th 9 (9) |
15th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
6f maiden winner and returned with a pleasing effort on the AW, but something to prove after his subsequent defeats (soft not an obvious excuse last time having handled that on debut); cheekpieces turned to. |
14/1 |

5th 4 (4) |
4th May 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Never a serious threat in well-contested handicap at Newmarket's Craven meeting two weeks ago, but he'd previously been consistent in three other 6f races, including on soft ground on debut; shapes as if he'll stay this longer trip; respected. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won in maiden and handicap company over 6f when a 3yo; expensive to follow last year in handicaps but ran some good races, and again from the front in a 6f Class 4 here last month on return from an absence; might take a step forward from that and he'll be fine back in trip. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won his maiden over C&D as a 3yo, returning from eight months off, which is a positive after a break of ten months; expensive to follow in handicaps last season, following a second wind op, and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market. |
8/1 |
|
6th 5 (8) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Won two in a row (6f/7f, good to firm) last summer and performing well in defeat this year, including second to Air Force One in a big-field at York (5f) in July and to subsequent Ayr Bronze Cup winner Winged Messenger at Epsom (6f; third and fourth also won since) when last seen seven weeks ago; raced mainly on good or firmer but showed promise on soft at the start of his career; has first-time cheekpieces added to his tongue-tie; high on the shortlist with Warren Fentiman taking 5lb off. |

Second of eight, beaten over 4l, on her nursery debut at Chelmsford ten weeks ago (6f); however, dropped away to finish last of 12 at Southwell on Thursday; needs to leave that behind her if turned out quickly. |

C&D winner for Nigel Tinkler in November; off the mark on turf with a game effort at Windsor last month (Class 5; 6f, soft); slowly away and below par at Bath last week, but he's better than that and looks set to go well with Rossa Ryan back in the saddle. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Progressed from a low base last July/September, winning at up to 2m; quiet on her first two starts this summer following wind surgery, but she was back in the groove when second of 13 at York (extended 2m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) three weeks ago; tackles a classier event this time but can't be dismissed. |

Arrives with something to prove having been well beaten here on her two starts this summer (1m2f/1m4f); however, she was progressive last July/September, winning at up to 2m, and she won over hurdles in March; possibilities if she's back on song in a first-time tongue-tie; watch the betting. |

Back from a gelding operation when showing a bit more at Southwell (7f AW) in March and this 250,000gns yearling could well be seen in a different light in low-grade handicap company with his yard (also runs Organic) having winners; market instructive. |

Still unexposed after only five runs and recovered well from awkward start to go close on handicap debut at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February; disappointed over 6f there last month, though, and it's hard to know what to expect from him here; tongue-tie/cheekpieces fitted. |

9st 5lb |
Ended a long losing run in a classified event at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) in June but he was a remote third there (1m) last time; that was a tough task behind a handicap blot but he's not easy to predict and his two runs on slow ground have been underwhelming. |
