5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
All four of his wins were on soft or heavy ground, three at Goodwood; runner-up on his only two visits here, including at this meeting (good to soft) last year and he's 1lb lower today; that was over 8.5f and his creditable fifth on reappearance ten weeks ago was in the 1m Lincoln at Doncaster, but he stays 1m2f; strong each-way claims. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Good fourth in this in 2024 (soft) and respectable eighth last season (good to soft), making his reappearance each time; runner-up on three of his five subsequent starts last term (good to soft/soft); his four wins have come on soft/heavy going and such testing ground today seems unlikely. |

Ran big race in defeat on seasonal debut at Bath (1m, soft) in May but was not seen to quite the same effect on good ground the last twice and conditions are likely to be even quicker today. |

Unraced on firmer than good; 1m maiden winner at Brighton last September, in a two-runner race; close second at Bath (1m, soft) on reappearance, before a lesser show at Brighton later in May; needs to resume progress. |

17th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has patchy profile but he put in a dominant display at Kempton (1m) in October and he had some traffic issues in the closing stages when a respectable sixth over C&D last time; still looks on a workable mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid. |

13th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner; off the mark for this yard when beating 12 rivals at Windsor in July (1m, soft); not so good in Doncaster classified event four weeks ago but this return to Class 6 will help and he has the ability to feature. |

24th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Still 1lb lower than when last successful and ran with credit when fourth of ten at Goodwood (1m, soft) nine days ago; well beaten in one previous go on the AW (at Kempton) so she does have a bit to prove. |
12/1 |

15th Oct 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Best effort this term when third at Chepstow (1m, good to soft) on penultimate start; exposed mare but is handicapped to go well, having won off 1lb higher here in August 2022; creditable fourth in this race last year. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Scored twice (over 1m1f) at Goodwood last summer; yet to hit top form this season though, a never-dangerous fifth of eight back at Goodwood (1m1f) last month; has slipped to a lenient mark though so needs considering in a headgear changed for in-form yard. |
8/1 |

5th 5 (1) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Needs a revival but fast ground wasn't ideal on his comeback run and seven career wins include this race 12 months ago off only 3lb lower; rarely looks straightforward but remains capable of winning races. |
7/2 |

11th 3 (3) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Seven-time winner from 1m-1m2f; not on a bad mark on the pick of last season's efforts, but he has been absent for 193 days and and an inexperienced amateur takes the ride (first Flat ride under rules). |

8th 6 (4) |
13th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Well suited by switchback tracks and is on his last winning mark but he offered very little for his new yard at a big price on his recent comeback; headgear goes back on (first-time cheekpieces). |
50/1 |

3 (5) |
1st Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
The latest of his seven wins on turf was in April 2024 off today's mark; out of form on last three starts last year, including with slow starts, and has since left the Newland/Insole stable; no tongue-tie or other headgear today, for the first time since 2021. |

9st 13lb |
Recorded a clearcut success on soft going at Windsor (1m) in the spring; respectable third on similar surface at this course (1m1f) most recently; has slipped back to an attractive mark and enters calculations. |

3rd 8 (6) |
27th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 4 |

Similar type to Junkanoo, having recorded a clearcut success on soft going at Windsor (1m) in the spring; not disgraced over 1m1f three starts back; on a workable mark and looks one to consider. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Keeps missing the break but he still went close two starts ago at Chepstow and it wasn't a bad run here last time, again over 1m; returning to further looks a good move. |
11/2 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Yet again he missed the break before going down narrowly at Chepstow last week (1m, good; handles softer); too risky when he's almost certain to give himself another uphill battle by starting slowly. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins and a second in four starts over C&D and he is running at this lower level for just the second time, so there are positives; on the flip side, he's almost certain to miss the break and can give it away completely at the stalls; risky. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
In and out since winning at Leicester (1m4f, good) in April and he was beaten 8l after a slow start at Newbury last time; now only 1lb higher than for that last success but he needs to raise his game back up in trip. |
7/1 |

5th 7 (1) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In and out since winning at Leicester (1m4f, good) in April and was disappointing at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) 11 days ago given he has won over that far and in testing ground; has plenty of form on good to firm, but has a bit to prove; often misses the break. |
14/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Three of his six wins have come over this trip elsewhere and he will appreciate going back up in distance after finishing third of eight at Newmarket (1m2f, good) four weeks ago (runner-up won next time); goes on any ground and respected off the same mark. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
C&D winner in 2024 but three subsequent visits have not gone nearly so well; none too consistent but two of his last four AW runs, including in January latest, give him a shout if he's ready following the absence; he's twice been runner-up after longer layoffs. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner as a 2yo and back to form when successful at Kempton (7f; solid form) in October; below that level twice since but better than the result when seventh of 12 over C&D latterly having been caught wide from the outside stall; has fared better with the draw this time and could be dangerous having dipped to only 1lb above the mark he defied at Kempton. |
11/2 |
|
2 (9) |
22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Ran okay in a hot race over C&D last month and duly built on that when winning by a cosy neck 12 days ago (also C&D); major claims off 3lb higher; a positive showing from Waistcoat, who he beat last time, in the 6.40 would increase confidence. |
