On a long losing streak (since October 2023) but shaped well on several occasions, including on seasonal debut at Leopardstown; less encouraging run over C&D next time and folded tamely at Navan on Sunday; the jury is out. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
His three wins for this yard include a soft-ground success at Doncaster just under a year ago; went close at Pontefract in June and the door opened again when getting up late at Newcastle (again 5f, AW) last Thursday; hasn't won off a mark this high since 2022 but it's not hard to see him going well on his first visit to Beverley. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Handles most ground; best form when winning a Group 2 on good to soft at Glorious Goodwood in 2025 and although he hasn't nailed it in the same way this year, the recent rain could give him a toehold into this race; visored once as a 2yo, now goes in blinkers. |

Won a handicap at this meeting in 2023 and he won this race last year (good to soft; seems versatile ground-wise); he hasn't been at the very top of his game this year but there have been encouraging signs on his last two starts and he could play a leading role back at Glorious Goodwood. |

Course legend has won 10 of his 12 races at this track and amassed 575,000GBP in prizemoney; has won twice at Listed level this season and second in a Group 2; however, wasn't himself when eased and well beaten last time; has run well in defeat in this race for the last two years but the trip stretches him and is vulnerable again. |

Ex-Irish 7yo who had a much higher mark this time last year; well backed all day and on course when winning over C&D 12 days ago, and there's every chance he can defy a 3lb rise under Ashley Lewis, who has plenty of experience for his 3lb claim in this company. |

On a long losing run but he has dropped to a dangerous mark and his latest Newcastle run confirmed he retains a good chunk of ability, surging to the front 1f out but failing to see out the stiff 7f; this easier test should suit and he can't be discounted. |

Back on song when convincing winner of a 6f Listed event at Naas (yielding) last October; unable to get involved in two runs at that level in 2026 but he was badly checked back at Naas in April and in better form than the 5l defeat suggests; however, he has more to prove back on this track with good to firm ground quicker than ideal; regular cheekpieces are discarded. |

Better than ever on turf this year, notably over C&D when winning Listed (beating Likedbymike) in June and good third under top-weight in handicap following month; ground on the quick side when unable to mount a challenge in Shergar Cup Dash at Ascot earlier this month but back to favoured C&D and on easier ground seems sure to make a bold bid. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Ended 2025 with a win in a handicap in Bahrain (5f, good); he has raised his game on turf this summer, winning a Listed race at Cork (5f, good; cheekpieces first time) in June; the cheekpieces were absent when he was a fine third in a Cork handicap two weeks ago, doing best of the far-side group, and another big run seems likely. |

His seven wins include this race in 2024; added a valuable handicap in Bahrain over the winter; bounced back to form after a break when winning a C&D Listed race last month but found Group 2 company too tough at the Curragh last weekend; this is easier despite his hefty weight. |

Likeable mare ran a cracking race on her seasonal return in a median auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good) when just 0.5l behind the winner Tango Flare; rated just 92, however, so looks to be out of her depth in this grade (failed to trouble the judge in three previous runs in stakes company). |
