6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Both wins came in May 2024 over about 1m2f when trained by Jane Chapple-Hyam; closest since when beaten a neck at Nottingham (1m2f, good) last month in first-time blinkers (retained since); still well handicapped on his best form. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Record of 0-7 for current yard but he went down by only a neck in first-time blinkers at Nottingham (1m2f, good) most recently; still well treated on historical data; possibilities in the retained headgear. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Dual winner for Jane Chapple-Hyam but has been quite disappointing since the latest of those wins; held in two starts since undergoing wind surgery and blinkers are now tried instead of cheekpieces; down another 3lb. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Dam is Ascot Gold Cup winner Estimate; inconsistent for Sir Michael Stoute in 2024; beaten on the nod at Leopardstown (1m4f) last May on debut for new yard, after which he was all the rage for this race but it was a nightmare for favourite backers, as he was shuffled back (from stall 1) and towards the rear entering straight before running on nicely until denied any room again in the last half furlong; absent since but same mark today and he is surely capable of significantly better; granted better luck, he should have a big shout. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Dam is Ascot Gold Cup winner Estimate; inconsistent for Sir Michael Stoute last term, best efforts when second on good to firm in June and drubbing his opponents over 1m6f on AW in August; tailed off in the Melrose at York (6-1) final 3yo outing but made a bright start for new yard when beaten on the nod at Leopardstown (1m4f) last month; needs improvement but there is a great deal to suggest he arrives here with major potential as a stayer. |

16th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Wide margin AW winner at Wolverhampton (1m6f) off 81 for Michael Stoute last August and 11lb higher now; best turf effort a 0.5l second of 6 at Windsor (11.5f, gd-fm); lacks a run but respected on debut for Willie Mullins. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Hard to fancy on the evidence of the last 12 months but he was useful in his prime and he's one to watch in the betting off a reduced mark on his third start for this yard. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
A dual 1m2f scorer in 2024 for Simon and Ed Crisford; failed to fire for Susan Corbett last year, though, and he came in a below-par fifth for his new yard in 1m Bath handicap last month; not easy to make a case for. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Much respected on his form for Alan King, for all that he was 1-22 for that yard; following a 30,000gns sale he ran okay over C&D on last month's stable debut, but no more than that. |

30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Sole win (22 races) was on AW in June 2024; five seconds on turf and bang there on AW (1m3f/1m4f) on last two starts before 30,000gns sale (left Alan King) in April, but this is the first time he's gone beyond that on Flat. |

Sole win in 1m2f Lingfield AW handicap nearly two years ago; has been running well since back on AW of late but it's pushing it to call him well handicapped in this competitive race. |

Sole success came on AW at Wolverhampton and he comes here on the back of a good fifth of seven over C&D four weeks ago; that form is working out really well so he merits serious consideration eased 1lb. |

1m novice winner on the AW; first run since being gelded when not getting home over 1m2f on handicap debut at Chelmsford; respected back at this trip, for all that blinkers are soon turned to. |
