Good second over C&D in December but that's a rare bright spot in the last few months; others look stronger for win purposes. |

Sole AW win was a 6f novice two years ago; in better form in December than he is now but Stevie Donohoe is 1-1 on him (on turf last summer) so there might be a turnaround. |

110,000gns yearling; half-brother to three winners including Secret Angel (6f including 2yo Listed) and Queensbrydge (7f 2yo/1m AW; 89); dam 6f-8.5f winner (including 2yo/AW/GB and US Listed), half-sister to useful 6f winner Summerinthecity; may well be sharp for debut; market revealing. |

0-11 and shown nothing in two turf runs; they've both come on soft ground and a drying surface may help but it was a low-key yard debut at Cork last month. |

10th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 12lb |
10-race maiden; went close at Chelmsford in December but didn't back that up in two subsequent AW runs and bought for just 4,500gns since; off 239 days and others appeal more. |
20/1 |

14th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Still to get his head in front but he comes here in decent nick, sixth of 11 in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 25 days ago; shortlisted off an easing mark. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has done nothing but progress since the visor went on, winning five of his last eight starts (including C&D) and going up 31lb in the weights; off for eight months since winning at Goodwood in September and will need another career-best off this mark. |
8/1 |

1st 1 (1) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Has won four of his last seven starts at 6f, on AW then back on turf at Doncaster (good to firm) in June; up 7lb but it was a solid sixth of 22 at York (good) in July, when he raced away from the main action; drying ground would be a likely positive and he's firmly in the picture. |

17th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
12-race maiden; excelled herself when 40-1 second of five in C&D maiden in October but returns here after running poorly in a 6f turf handicap in April and is not one to rely upon; tries first-time cheekpieces today. |

Placed in 5f handicaps on turf and a Southwell AW maiden but she needs extra for the return to 6f and lacks a recent run. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

C&D winner in October but yet to hit top form in handicaps this season, only 11th over 7f Doncaster 17 days ago; this is easier, though. |
7/2 |

11th 12 (15) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Dual AW winner but he's been off the boil on Polytrack and Tapeta since December; still lightly raced on turf but he needs to rediscover his spark back in this sphere. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins have came over C&D; below his best on his last two starts but now back on his last winning mark; not out of this. |
11/1 |
