11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
On a good mark, fully 14lb lower than when winning last season's Great St Wilfrid, but 0-14 at 5f and he is drawn out wide. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
12lb lower than for his win in the Great St Wilfrid last August (6f, good to firm); mixed bag in 2026 but he is the type to pop up soon, albeit probably over a shorter trip. |
16/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon (6f, good to firm) off a 9lb higher mark; some creditable efforts since but he's hard to predict and has struggled at Chester and York in his last two starts; comes with risks attached and he needs to bounce back on this drop back in trip. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Admirable teenager with 12 wins to his name, including one over C&D; best recent effort when second of 12 at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last month; should be on the premises again. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Admirable teenager who has a better strike-rate on the AW, but he has won over this C&D; finished a long way behind Signcastle City at York (7f, good) last month and probably best watched. |
33/1 |
|
20th 12 (14) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
13yo who has won on 12 occasions, the latest in December 2024 and his C&D win came before most of today's rivals were born; not disgraced on reappearance and he's now 13lb lower than this time last year, but his last turf win was in 2022; not the percentage call. |

3rd 6 (10) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Well beaten at Epsom on Oaks day and he still had work to do when his path was blocked late on over this C&D three weeks ago; however, before those he won in good style on the other Newmarket course (1m, good) and he won this race in 2024 (good to soft); capable of having a say. |
16/1 |

13th 1 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Disappointing at Epsom a fortnight ago but won on the other Newmarket course (1m, good) last month and he has a very solid record at this track, featuring a C&D win and 2l fourth in this last year; could bounce back. |
14/1 |

17th 8 (1) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Versatile regarding ground and he was winning his 12th race when beating Jimmy Speaking and Final Night at Newmarket (1m, good) three weeks ago; that was a comfortable win and he has the assistance of Ryan Moore but this demands more from him (has never won off a mark this high). |

31st Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Losing spell goes back to 2022 and he's only 1-15 on AW; absent since last June; not the percentage call, unless the market suggests a big effort is on the cards. |

5th 7 (5) |
27th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
On a long losing run but he's well handicapped on last year's best efforts and was beaten just a neck at Leicester (7f, soft) last time on his second start back from a break; has won twice here (6f/7f, good to firm) and it's a course that often brings out the best in him; firmly in calculations. |

Newcastle winner (6f, Tapeta) as a 2yo, but losing run up to 14 despite a plummeting mark; plenty to prove after four months off. |

Formerly useful in this sphere but is 0-9 and showing inconsistent form for current stable; came up well short returned to AW last time and doesn't look the percentage call. |

7th Feb 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
No win since 2021 but has good recent form, having been placed at Kempton in three of his last four races (7f/1m; the hood worn each time is now removed); thereabouts provided he continues in similar vein. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
31st Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Off the track for 381 days prior to his return in October and he's run two good races and two lesser ones since reappearing; the two good efforts have both come at this track, latterly over 1m 25 days ago; looks a key player back at 7f with Rossa Ryan retaining the ride. |
11/4 |
