3rd 2 (2) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Led close home to win valuable 5f Ascot handicap in July and wasn't beaten far when back over 6f for Stewards' Cup at Glorious Goodwood (also good to firm) at start of this month; didn't fire at York (5.3f, good) on Wednesday, though, and needs a personal best here. |
8/1 |
|
12th 1 (17) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Wins in Bahrain (6f, good to firm) and at Ascot (5f, good to firm) this summer; stiff task under a penalty in the Stewards' Cup 18 days ago and ran respectably in midfield; the Ascot form makes him of interest and he could prove suited by this intermediate trip; whether his high draw proves beneficial remains to be seen though. |
16/1 |
|
10th 2 (2) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Would have finished closer than tenth in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot (6f) granted a clear run; scaled new heights when beating his 14 rivals there (5f, also good to firm) three weeks ago, finishing his race off strongly; 3lb wrong under his penalty today and while he has more good races in him, this one might prove too demanding. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Landed his third race when successful from a flag start at Ripon (6f, good) in May; may have needed the run when sixth of 12 at Hamilton (6f, good) on his first run since 11 days ago; races beyond 7f for the first time. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Tongue tied for the first time when showing a good attitude to win at Ripon (6f, good; flag start) in May when last seen; only 1lb higher and he can be competitive granted he's ready to go on his first outing for 95 days. |
13/2 |
|
1st 2 (5) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All 12 runs have been on turf and he won twice at Catterick (6f/7f, good) last season; 6lb higher than for his last success but he reappeared with a creditable fourth of 13 at Thirsk last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this drop back in trip; tongue-tie added. |

22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Promising 2yo debut and he returned from 405 days off to win a Ffos Las maiden (6f, good) in decisive fashion in July; likely to stay 7f and he's a strong contender despite the 7lb penalty. |
13/8 |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Had bits of Group form as a 2yo but his record in handicaps (7f/1m) this term comprises three duck eggs; has lots to prove and may be best watched unless the market speaks positively. |
25/1 |
|
11th 4 (5) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Lots to like about his profile at two (6f/7f) but has finished well down the field in 7f/1m handicaps this term, latterly tried in cheekpieces. |
50/1 |
|
14th 6 (13) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Some useful efforts as a 2yo but he has a doubt over current form, having failed to beat a rival in sole run this term (AW debut); wears first-time headgear and steps up in trip. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Very well handicapped on last summer's exploits but he's been a long way below that level this year and a major turnaround is needed. |
25/1 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won two 6f handicaps on good ground last summer when with Hugo Palmer; quiet in two runs for current yard (cheekpieces then a visor) and soft ground might not be what he wants. |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 (9) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Thirsk (6f, good) last June before following up at Chester (6f, good) a week later; well beaten in the Ayr Bronze Cup on his final start for Hugo Palmer and he beat only one rival home at Bath on his stable debut 27 days ago; visor back on (replacing cheekpieces worn last time). |

Best form on soft ground, his only win coming over C&D in October 2024; makes her seasonal debut and would be interesting if the ground eases. |

|

20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |

Won nursery here last October (6f, soft) on sole previous course visit and he's run some good races in defeat for his new yard this season, including on good ground and when fourth of 13 at Ayr three weeks ago (6f, soft; showed pace); each-way contender now back down in trip. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Not beaten far when third of four at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) nine days ago and is now back on same mark as for close second of 15 over that trip at Newbury (good) in May; should be okay back at 1m2f; considered. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
On same mark as when dead-heating at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last April but he's 0-15 since; finished runner-up in a big field at Newbury (1m4f, good) in May but he's hard to predict and was never involved at Ascot last time; comes with risks attached. |
5/1 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Last won when sharing the spoils at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in April 2025; close second of 15 at Newbury (1m4f, good) in May was his best show this season and he acts on good to firm, but others are preferred for win purposes; this is a very rare run in headgear. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Flourished when switched to heavy and soft ground last autumn, winning over 6f and 7f; retains ability as a 3yo but he might have run better at Ayr last month when back on soft ground (first-time visor now discarded) and hard to depend on a turnaround. |
12/1 |
|
4 (7) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Likes testing ground as he showed when winning nurseries at Hamilton (6f, heavy) and Haydock (7f, soft) a year ago; has run with credit a couple of times in a light campaign this year, but still 4lb above his last winning mark; probably needs the new visor to make a difference. |
9/1 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Prominent-racer who won nurseries at Hamilton (6f, heavy) and Haydock (7f, soft) last September; got back near best with close fourth at Chester (7.6f, good) in May but he failed to beat a rival at Haydock last time; has been up and down since last success and he comes with risks attached after a break. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Had some strong form as a 3yo, including at York, and he returned to action in March with a good third at Southwell (5f, AW); two heavy defeats have followed (had a wind op after the first) and he arrives with a point to prove. |
40/1 |
|
21th 4 (1) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Third of 22 in 3yo handicap over C&D (good to firm) at this meeting 12 months ago and progressive on AW since; soft ground may not have suited at Musselburgh last time and he's had wind surgery since; however, a career best is needed today and he has to prove he's just as good on turf as AW. |
16/1 |
|
11th 2 (1) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Steadily progressive and posted another personal best when third at Southwell (5f, AW) on reappearance; his turf form is at a lower level but he still won at Thirsk last spring and finished third in a big field at York's Dante meeting (both 5f, good to firm); race-fit and should be in the thick of things again if a low draw doesn't count against him. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Only 1-16 and he's 3lb higher than the mark he won off in April 2025, despite since going 0-11; hasn't been running badly but looks vulnerable once more; effective in this returning headgear combination. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a good mark on 2025 best and he has been running himself into form this time around, third of ten (beaten 1l) at Carlisle four weeks ago; conditions no problem and he is one to consider. |

|
3rd 5 (7) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |

Gelded after a quiet debut and showed the benefit when runner-up at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) behind a Godolphin gelding who took four attempts to get off the mark; the form may not be good enough to win this and he tended to hang that day. |

Signs of ability as 2yo but he doesn't help himself by hanging and needs much more than shown in two handicaps at about 7f this year, in a hood and cheekpieces latest, now blinkered. |

Hinted at ability in three novices last term but looked very tricky in handicap at Beverley on reappearance, tailed off after pulling hard and hanging left; perhaps he was unsuited by the right-hand bend but he now has something to prove in a hood and cheekpieces. |

Handicapper quick to ease off and he offered more back on turf last time, on just his second run at beyond sprint trips; lacked consistency to date but that gave something to build on. |

4th 11 (4) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |

He made a winning start for Stuart Williams when strong at the finish over 5f at Chelmsford in December; little to cheer since and hopes are pinned on the return to 7f/turf having a positive effect. |

1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

He made a winning stable debut in a 5f novice at Chelmsford in December but three handicap runs since have been underwhelming; the addition of a hood needs to give him a lift; stable also runs Expert Agent. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Sole win from 15 starts came at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) last February when trained by Jim & Suzi Best; 0-5 for his previous stable (Flat/hurdles) and has a hood applied on his first outing for Luke Dace. |

6th 2 |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Low-grade winner on the AW who has shown some aptitude for hurdling, making the frame in run-of-the-mill 2m maidens at Hereford (good) and Huntingdon (good to firm); not obviously well treated for this handicap debut but should feature in a weak race. |
