1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
He's run well on both visits to Goodwood, latest a close third in 1m2f Listed race here (good) in May after an absence, and the late headway he made when eighth in the Listed Wolferton at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) suggests this step up in trip could be a good move; each-way chance. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Best effort in a truncated 2025 campaign when fourth to Haatem in this race (good to firm); showed enough to think he retains all his ability when third in 1m2f Goodwood Listed race (good) on reappearance 25 days ago; could reach the frame in this again. |

3rd 5 (7) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Unlucky second at Glorious Goodwood in 2024 when bidding for a notable 1m2f handicap double; best effort in a truncated 2025 campaign when fourth to Haatem in Listed grade at Royal Ascot; should be thereabouts, provided he's in top form after ten-month layoff. |

No win since 2021 but he should be competitive off this mark judged on some 2023 turf form and some 2023 and 2024 AW form; not dismissed. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Fine on Tapeta but has done most winning round Chelmsford, always over 1m2f; generally consistent in recent times, without looking quite as good, and has to prove his stamina going beyond 1m4f for the first time; the usual headgear comes off. |
10/1 |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Much more exposed than some of these and usually runs over 1m2f but gave pretty good account when fourth in valuable Chelmsford handicap (1m2f) a fortnight and is 1lb lower here; could have a say. |
4/1 |

7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Formerly a front-runner but more often held up these days; finished a 4l seventh at Wolverhampton in last two starts but he's 5-9 at Chelmsford and was runner-up over C&D in June; has possibilities back at this track and he needs a close look with Hollie Doyle booked. |

13th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who won one novice at Newbury (7f, good) in July 2022 and another at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last October; beaten only about 3l in his two starts (1m2f handicaps) this term, but this looks a harder task; 1m4f and headgear are new. |

25th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Seen only once since his 7f 2yo win, when prevailing by a nose in 9.4f Wolverhampton (AW) novice in October; will need to better that form to overcome his opening handicap mark but remains unexposed and can evidently go well when fresh. |

17th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Found three races not run to suit his hold-up style in the summer and this mark is likely within range when he gets a decent pace to track; maybe that will happen today, under Silvestre De Sousa (11-46 for the yard), back from a short break. |

27th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won a Southwell novice (1m) last September and that was it for the season; hasn't threatened in either handicap this year, though wasn't beaten far at Newmarket last time (1m2f) when held up in a slowly run affair; has a handicap in him. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Good impression made on April's Ayr hurdling debut (2m, good to soft; third won next time), but form of successful Newton Abbot follow-up has taken a few knocks and it was a crunching fall she took at Ffos Las latest; mark okay, and all about whether she's over that unfortunate experience. |

22nd May 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Three Flat wins in Germany; up and down in Britain but was involved in two close finishes in 2024 (best RPR 87); 2-2 over hurdles for new yard, having it pretty much her own way at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) recently; Sir Galahad will provide much more of a test but it looks tight between them. |

Regained the winning thread at Windsor (11.5f) last month; held off this mark at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) last week but did enough to suggest he remains in form; could go well. |

Beaten a neck at Kempton (1m4f) on penultimate start and went one better at Windsor (11.4f) 12 days later, his first win for over two years; acts on Tapeta; back up another 2lb but in the mix if that form is repeated. |
