2nd 19 (18) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Best form when dead-heating for 6f Listed AW win in January, making it 2-2 for Ryan Moore; no serious inroads back on turf since, in a Group 3 and the 7f Victoria Cup on this course, but he did come from off the pace to finish a close fifth of 28 in this race (good to firm) last year and he shouldn't be overlooked back over C&D in first-time cheekpieces. |
14/1 |

10th 5 (21) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Looks well treated on this year's AW form but failed to transfer it back to turf (in Group 3) last time when bidding for a 6f hat-trick, and still has a weaker strike-rate in this sphere; bit to prove back at 7f and doesn't look the percentage call. |
20/1 |
|
11th 2 (13) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Dead-heated with Diligent Harry in Listed grade to complete a Lingfield 6f double in January and take AW record to 4-8; effective when fresh but is by no means certain to transfer the improvement back to turf; only 1-9 in this sphere; tongue-tie applied. |

9st 7lb |
Good record in AW sprints and she recorded a personal best with a front-running win at Yarmouth three weeks ago (6f, good to firm; well backed); 3lb rise to deal with but she's back against her own sex and can't be ignored. |

Well backed when winning a weak Tapeta handicap in first-time blinkers three weeks ago; said to have run flat when well beaten off his revised mark last time and that leaves him something to prove now switched to cheekpieces. |

9th 9 (8) |
30th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Big market mover on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f) and in the first-time blinkers he came through wide and late to prevail narrowly; looked good value for his winning margin; up 5lb. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Three-time winner, the most recent coming at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in November; runner-up there over 9.5f in April but he was well beaten at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago and needs to bounce back. |
16/1 |

10th 5 (16) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Good run of turf form last summer included when making all at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to soft; acts on quicker) in July; mostly creditable efforts on AW since winning at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in November and he's far from ruled out back on grass despite tricky stall. |
13/2 |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Reappeared with a win at Catterick (6f, good) in April and then made all at Epsom (6f, good) this month; his stable is a dab hand when it comes to older horses progressing through the ranks and, with the Epsom form having been franked, a 3lb rise could prove lenient for this thriving 5yo. |
7/2 |

1st 6 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Six-time winner who improved last year and was better than ever when scoring at Catterick (6f, good) on his reappearance nearly three months ago; subsequently absent but unlikely he'd be making the journey down without good reason and may be capable of better yet. |
15/2 |

1st 9 (6) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |

Three wins last year included one at Catterick (7f) and one off this mark (6f, good); absent five months and he will need to be at his best to make a winning return. |

Unexposed 3yo; looked good, albeit a touch wayward, when winning at Doncaster in June (5f, good to soft) and he was back at that level when second at Ayr 13 days ago, travelling strongly but still looking raw under pressure; up 2lb but looks the type to carry on improving with experience. |

Showed a bit of promise here (5f) on sole 2yo start; well held in both 3yo outings but this Boughey representative looks the type to improve now handicapping at a modest level; bred to stay the new trip; interesting, especially if the market speaks positively. |

9st 9lb |
Runner-up in his first four starts over 5f-7f, but although only fifth of ten on handicap debut at Kempton (6f, Polytrack; first-time cheekpieces) last time an awkward start and meeting a bit of trouble wouldn't have helped; shortlisted. |

18th Feb 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Four runs in novice and maiden company (5f-7f), finishing second on each occasion; this might prove his optimum trip and cheekpieces could spark extra now handicapping. |

2nd Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Runner-up in all three starts on the Wolverhampton Tapeta (5f/6f), the latest when sent off odds-on four weeks ago; that form hasn't been done any harm in the meantime and there is optimism for the longer trip on pedigree; one of three from yard. |

0-10 and although he ran well when third of eight at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) and second of nine at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last month, his fourth of six at Bath (5.7f, firm) eight days ago wasn't so hot; needs to get back on track. |
