25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Never a threat after a slow start in the corresponding race 12 months ago; as good as ever when winning at Sandown and Ascot (came from well back) in August/September and two subsequent defeats excusable (ground/Listed race); 3-8 on soft or worse but might be better suited by a stiffer finish. |
16/1 |

8th 12 (5) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
At least as good as ever this year, winning handicaps at Sandown (5f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) in September; found things happening too quickly at Haydock last Saturday and she's in deeper today, but she does go really well at Ascot and the more rain that falls the better. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Likeable mare with eight wins to her name, including at Sandown (5f, soft) and Ascot (5f, good to soft) in the last four weeks; impossible to rule out but she's gone up 13lb in total for those successes and she'll need a career best to complete the hat-trick. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
One of his five wins came over C&D in May 2025; third to Amazonian Dream over C&D four weeks ago was an encouraging return from four months off and in-form 5lb claimer is now recruited; in the mix. |
10/1 |

3rd 1 (8) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Four-time turf winner including off 5lb higher over C&D (good to firm) last spring; well held at Wolverhampton when last seen in March but that was after a good spell on AW including a Kempton win; has good record when fresh and he needs a close look back from four months off. |
13/2 |

7th 6 (12) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Opened his AW account in Kempton contest (6f) in December; has remained in form since, without necessarily building on that success; likely needs to raise his game in this field. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Hasn't won at Ascot but she has run several good races at the track; as good as ever this year and she should be heavily involved at the business end of the race. |
7/1 |

6th 2 (3) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Likeable 8yo mare with a consistent record and ten wins to her name; as good as ever when third of 23 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last month, keeping on gamely; should go well again off 1lb higher. |
7/1 |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Best with positive tactics, as when leading until well inside final 1f at Goodwood in May; only tenth at Epsom on Oaks day but that was a warm race and he's had a break since; goes well on soft ground; possibilities. |
14/1 |

10th 8 (6) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |

8yo who has been as good as ever this spring, short-headed at Musselburgh (7f, good) then second of 14 to Crimson Spirit at Goodwood (7f, good); last season's two wins came on soft ground; effective here; respected. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Front-runner who was beaten off only inside the final 1f at Lingfield last time; should make another bold bid but he's still 4lb higher than when making all at Yarmouth in the spring. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 3 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Front-runner who's drawn to attack and boasts a solid record over C&D; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark, though, for a yard also responsible for Ziggy's Missile. |
8/1 |

8th 6 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who was found an ordinary Yarmouth handicap when winning easily in the spring; handicapper had his say for that and he finished well beaten behind Dream Composer upped in class at Epsom last time; yard also runs Rhythm N Hooves. |

9th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer; ran well for second at Epsom in July (6f, good to soft); less convincing in his three starts since, albeit latest run on heavy is easy to excuse; risky but not impossible that this first taste of a Class 5 handicap will prompt a revival. |
16/1 |

25th Sep 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Prominent racer; ran well for second at Epsom in July (6f, good to soft); less convincing in his two starts since and plenty to prove on this ground; cheekpieces now tried. |

8th 2 (4) |
9th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Made a bold bid when runner-up off a reduced mark at Epsom (6f, good to soft) last month but he failed to beat a rival in a big field at Windsor (behind Supreme King) last time; has something to prove again after that and his last win was over two years ago. |

4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner of much higher marks in the summer of 2022 including this race; 1-23 since, though, and tardy starts have become a habit (blindfold off late the last twice); 5lb below last winning mark so certainly well handicapped, but risky. |
10/1 |
|
11th 13 (12) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
This mark in range but he hasn't found his best form so far this year (had blindfold issues behind Castan latest); this looks a tough race in which to bounce back. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Right behind Accrual here before justifying favouritism at Nottingham (5f) three days ago despite an awkward start; the penalty might just find him out. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ultra-consistent and arrives following a solid effort at Thirsk (same mark as tonight; his last winning rating); boasts a good record at this time of year and this is less competitive, so his claims are obvious. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 2 (11) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Successful off this mark at Wolverhampton in March; solid efforts on his last three starts and he should make a bold bid to win this race for the second season in succession. |
