5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Hasn't won since recording a three-timer in 2024; last of six on return to action at Salisbury (1m4f, good) last month when favourite; has dropped to a career-low mark and first-time visor goes on; may be worth another chance. |

14th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
His three wins were all on the Flat in 2024, including here on heavy ground over 1m2f; failed to build on his comeback run when well beaten over hurdles at Kempton 52 days ago and the hood returns on this switch back to the Flat; makes some appeal from a good mark. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His last win was two years ago but he's been placed in all three runs this season including close calls over C&D (good to firm) and at Ffos Las (1m2f, good); remains well handicapped on his old form and he should make another bold bid. |
3/1 |

9st 6lb |
Very solid record in 2024 on turf but 592 days off before this season; beaten a long way on his return (his only AW race) and not so far next time but he still has major work to do to turn things around. |
33/1 |

Beaten a long way on his return from 20 months off at Kempton (2m, AW) 16 days ago and still 6lb above his last winning mark; needs the ground to dry out. |
14/1 |

9th 1 (4) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Finally off the mark in Britain in May 2024 and runner-up on next four starts, including when coming from well back over 2m4f at Glorious Goodwood; however, he flopped when just 9-1 for the Cesarewitch (soft) that October and not seen since; that was his only run in Britain on softer than good; well handicapped were he to return at his best on this AW debut after 588 days off; market may guide. |

Four-time winner on the Flat who showed some promise when fifth of 11 on hurdles debut at Fontwell (2m2f, good to soft) last month, but has endured heavy defeats in both starts since; not out of the question he could bounce back on handicap debut, though. |

Ended a lengthy losing run when winning in first-time blinkers at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) last month and ran another good race when second of 12 at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) 15 days ago; up another 2lb but he's a lively contender. |

1st 7 (7) |

On a losing run and can get it wrong at the start; well handicapped on 2025 best, however, and he stayed on for fourth at Newcastle 19 days ago; conditions shouldn't be an issue and he commands respect with new blinkers now replacing cheekpieces. |

Sole win from 14 races was at Windsor (1m2f, heavy) last October off 6lb higher; tailed off in first-time cheekpieces (which are now removed) on latest outing; this is a rethink on trip, following three attempts over 1m, and she's never been beyond 1m2f; bit to prove. |
