4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Won 1m4f/2m handicaps on the AW early this year; beaten just over 7l in hot handicaps at Carlisle (1m3f) and Royal Ascot (1m6f) on last two outings, shaping much better than ninth of 16 suggests in the latter (big move to dispute lead early in straight) but his turf strike-rate is 3-37. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Won 1m4f/2m handicaps on the AW (3-36 on turf) earlier this year but this is a different ball game altogether and his run at Carlisle 17 days ago was no more than average; plenty of others appeal more. |
50/1 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Durable veteran who won twice on the AW early this year; however, he was soundly beaten at Newcastle on Good Friday and faces some unexposed rivals on his return to turf. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Record of 5-13 and his last two wins were in Group 3 at Southwell (1m3f) last January and a Listed event at Kempton (1m2f) this spring; ran into some trouble when creditable sixth of 16 in Listed Wolferton Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) and he was only narrowly denied back in a Group 3 at Haydock two weeks ago; was as good as ever with that bold bid and he's the standout contender in this line-up. |
4/7 |
|
2nd 5 (7) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Best turf form when just over 2l sixth of 16 in Listed race at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) latest start, a race which Haatem won but this 5yo gave him 3lb and eventually ran on well after trouble in running; on that evidence there's not much between them and they are leading contenders. |
4/1 |

6th 3 (10) |
17th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Added to his very good AW record with a stylish win in a Listed race at Kempton (1m2f) in April but he wasn't in quite the same form when fourth (Phantom Flight third) in the Brigadier Gerard at Sandown since and there are doubts as to whether he's still as effective on turf as AW; also has a 3lb penalty for the Kempton win. |

Won the Dante at 3; wasn't far off his best when third in 1m3f Southwell conditions race in February (AW debut) but comfortably held in Group races on turf since, albeit he might have needed his latest run at Newmarket after six months off. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Good C&D record includes a win in this last year off 5lb higher; back on form when narrowly denied at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) and things went wrong from the start (stumbled) when well behind Westridge at Goodwood since; could bounce back. |
18/1 |
|
6 (16) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has a mixed 1-6 record at Goodwood, with the win in 2019, but he won a 17-runner race at the York Ebor meeting last August and went down by a neck at Sandown this month, both over 1m2f on good to firm but the ground was not an issue previously; now a 9yo but 4lb lower than for that York win; drawn wide but likely to be delivered late anyway. |
20/1 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Resilient 9yo who can still give it plenty in competitive handicaps, as when beating 16 rivals at York (about 1m2f, good to firm; off 5lb higher) last August; however, he has less obvious claims on subsequent handicap runs, including back at York in June. |

13th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
5-19 on AW, compared to 0-3 on turf; thrown in judged on best AW ratings, including from three starts back, but he's not beaten a rival in those three runs on turf, including last time out. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Often front-runner; won well over C&D on good to firm last July; somewhat back down the weights and in class when winning another Class 3 in seven-runner race at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm; made all) last Saturday in good style; back up 5lb for this Class 2 but each-way claims. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
A two-time 1m4f scorer in 2025; returned from a spell in Meydan with a solid fifth of 12 in 1m3f handicap at Carlisle four weeks ago; not out of things with Billy Loughnane now up. |
9/4 |
|
5th 4 (2) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Campaigned in the UAE this winter, last seen finishing tailed off at Meydan; still 4lb higher than for his last win in Britain and probably best watched after three months off. |
