21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Justified favouritism at Salisbury (7f, good) on penultimate start and consistent otherwise this season; creditable third at Kempton (1m, AW) last time; still well treated on peak form, which includes a win off 4lb higher at Glorious Goodwood two years ago; solid. |

3rd 2 (4) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dropped down the weights last summer and he has rediscovered his spark this time around, following third-placed efforts here and at Goodwood with a comfortable Salisbury success (all over 7f); probably stays this far but he has yet to be placed in his six 1m starts so it will be breaking new ground for him to win today. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |

Hasn't won since defying a 10lb higher mark at Glorious Goodwood two years ago but his two efforts this term are very encouraging, latest back at Goodwood (7f, soft); attractively treated and firmly in the mix. |

Dual AW winner; highlight of British form when second to Big Evs in a Listed race at York in May 2024; rated 99 at his peak. gained his first turf success off 72 when making all in a 20-runner contest over a little further than this here early this month; fair fifth under a fixed penalty in a 5f Cork event four days later; has gone up 11lb in total. |

Dual AW winner; highlight of British form when second to Big Evs in a Listed race at York in May 2024; rated 99 at his peak. gained his first turf success off 72 when making all in a 20-runner contest over an extended 6f at the Curragh on Wednesday; has a fixed 7lb penalty; an additional 2lb claimed this time; this stiff 5f should be fine for him. |

Dual AW winner is 0-5 on turf for current trainer this year, not beaten too far on penultimate; handicapper giving him every chance and new headgear combination tried. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up at Newcastle (6f, AW) before going one better to end a lengthy losing run over that same C&D 12 days ago; has won on turf, so the switch to grass is no issue and she's still on a nice mark on her old form following a 4lb rise. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

It's now 18 runs since her last success but retried in headgear when a solid third of ten in 6f classified event at Thirsk ten days ago; she can't be ruled out in another headgear change. |

25th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Prominent racer; three 5f wins when trained by Karl Burke, the latest a handicap off 1lb lower last July; runner-up in two of her five runs for Mick Appleby but she dropped away having forced the pace at Goodwood eight weeks ago; should be able to grab the stands' rail which could be advantageous but there are other pace influences to contend with. |

Regressive form for current stable, including after a wind op in February; down the field here two weeks ago (7f) and today's change of headgear isn't enough to tempt. |

24th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Series of good runs on AW since returning from a gelding operation in November, going down by a short-head over 7f here ten days ago; stamina for 1m has to be taken on trust. |

2nd 5 (2) |
14th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Sole win (ten races) was a 5f novice at Chester last July; has run creditably this winter on all three starts (7f/6f, Tapeta) since gelded but those results also suggest he will again prove vulnerable to an improver. |

1st Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

5f winner at Chester last summer; back in top form when third at Southwell 11 days ago but he was no match for Blue Prince on that occasion and his old adversary is preferred despite the revised weights. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |

Six-time AW winner scored for the first time on turf when winning over C&D last week; raised 9lb for that but a decent claimer takes off 7lb so that helps; not the best draw but still a big player. |

Three-time C&D winner, including this race last year, who ran well when seventh of 24 in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot last week; she's below her last winning mark and has strong claims back down in grade. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
All four wins have come over 7f/1m on the AW, the latest in February; now 2lb lower than for that success, but she took her turf record to 0-11 when only sixth of 11 at Chester (extended 1m2f) last time; this is more her trip but she's still hard to make a case for. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Ran well when a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month, but didn't back it up at Pontefract (5f, good; first-time hood) a fortnight ago; opposable given his wide draw and a losing run of 22. |

7th 9 (7) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Losing run up to 21, but he ran well to finish a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month; a few winners have come out of that race and a hood is given a go, but the drop to 5f may not be ideal even on a stiff track like this. |
7/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

Very useful juvenile/3yo for Roger Varian but his last win was in February 2024 and he's not made an impact in seven runs this year; mark continues to fall but losing run is up to 20 and others are preferred. |

19th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Rated considerably higher this time 12 months ago but he's down in the weights as a result of some modest runs since March; returning to 6f not enough to tempt this time. |
