24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Just one win in his first 18 starts but he doubled his tally when coming from off the pace to score at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up 3lb but that was a brave win and he shaped as though this trip should be within range; respected. |

9th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Winless since his debut in 2024 and he arrives below par, only sixth in 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap last time; also has his stamina to prove. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Second in a Group 2 for Hugo Palmer as a 2yo before proving hard to place last year; found his level again but twice turned over at short prices recently (latest third has been boosted since) and has stamina to prove upped from 1m back on the AW. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 87y Class 1 |
9st 11lb |
Chased home Lambourn in last year's Chester Vase and Derby (also third to him in the Irish Derby); missed the second half of last season but showed he's still as good as ever when defeating the reopposing Lady Vivian in 2m Sandown Listed race (good) last month; raced freely and weakened quickly in the Goodwood Cup with cheekpieces added (quickly discarded) but he can bounce back with his sights lowered today. |
7/4 |

7th 4 (3) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Second last term in the Derby and third in the Irish Derby; not seen afterwards as a 3yo but 2m races at Sandown this season have seen his promise renewed for serious stamina tests; it was just a four-runner Listed race last time when he dominated from the front at 4-7, so he needs much better today, but cheekpieces are enlisted and he's a fascinating newcomer to a top staying race. |
12/1 |

1st 3 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in the Derby at Epsom last June and kept on well for third in the Irish Derby at the Curragh (also 1m4f on good) next time; showed he retains plenty of ability when a 2l third in C&D Group 3 in May (ahead of three of today's rivals), leaving the impression a stronger gallop would have suited; should come on for that first start in 11 months and looks the one to beat. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two wins last summer and he showed spark as recently as this April; he's dropped to a dangerous mark but has failed to shine on his last three outings and arrives with something to prove. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Well treated on the form he showed last August, including win at Haydock and close third at the York Ebor festival; absent since finishing rather tamely over C&D two months ago. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
7f AW win for Denis Quinn last season; running well for his new trainer too, most recently finishing a neck second at Epsom (good to firm) last week; runs off the same mark (1lb well in) and he is respected, for all his stamina for 1m has to be conclusively proven. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Close third on stable debut at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) in May and didn't run badly when close eighth of ten (just behind Potomac River) in stronger race than this at Newmarket (7f, good) three weeks ago; no surprise if he features. |
5/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Became his new trainer's first runner, having been picked up from Denis Quinn for 17,000gns, when faring well in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Yarmouth three weeks ago (Dapper Guest behind); generally consistent and won't mind the stiffer 7f. |

15th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Below par on good ground last time (handicap debut) and may need softer; gelded since; gained his 2yo win in hood and looks interesting with this headgear reapplied; has low mileage and isn't fully exposed. |
10/1 |

7th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Promising second to useful rival over C&D on debut; subsequent 7f form features an AW win; latest effort (in Listed grade) suggests this drop back in trip will suit; well drawn and looks interesting returned to Chester on handicap debut. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 0-8 when always behind on last month's reappearance at Nottingham (1m, good); however, he could be sharper for that run and he twice kept on for third over 1m2f last autumn (good to soft), shaping each time as though 1m4f would be well worth another go; possible player. |
10/1 |
|
10th 2 (9) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Seven-race maiden but he ended last season with placed efforts in 1m2f handicaps at Pontefract and Redcar (both on good to soft); tongue-tie is removed on this drop back in trip but he's on same mark as last time and that was a personal best; interesting contender on his return. |
100/30 |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Unexposed; improved form on third handicap start last time when 4.75l third at Pontefract (1m2f, good to soft; first time tongue-tie, which is retained); could improve again; each-way chance. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Won early this year on first three runs for James Horton (7f/1m, AW) before good third here (1m, good to firm) and a fifth of seven at Sandown (1m, good); won at Kempton (1m, AW) next time; could give a good account but he's 6-9 on AW as opposed to 0-10 on turf, which tempers enthusiasm. |
20/1 |

1st 1 (14) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Hugely progressive for his new stable at the start of the year, winning handicaps at Southwell (7f/1m) before completing his hat-trick at Newcastle (1m); beaten on turf twice since but he is 0-10 in that sphere as opposed to 5-8 on AW; drawn widest but still of some interest. |
6/1 |
|
5th 5 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
He won earlier this year on his first three starts for James Horton (7f/1m, AW); made it 0-9 on turf when 2l third of 11 at Ascot (1m, good to firm) four weeks ago but that was still a positive run and he could be in the mix. |

5th Nov 2024 Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Placed over 1m at both Musselburgh (good) and, most recently, Pontefract (soft), both in blinkers; still early days and she's not going to need huge improvement to pick up a race. |

Improved form in these blinkers at Musselburgh the last twice (1m, good), finishing a head second then fourth of five in a blanket finish; her useful dam was at her best on slow ground and she's on the shortlist. |

Poor maiden who was tried in cheekpieces when a below-par sixth in 1m2f classified event here in August; returns from seven months off with lots to find. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Little to get excited about in six starts and poor form in a hurdle and a Ripon handicap since returning for this yard in June; needs big improvement down in grade with cheekpieces given a go. |
