Won at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in March latest; won on good to firm in 2023 but it's a concern that last year he did much better on AW than turf. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 2f 2y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Sole Flat win (31 attempts) was debut in 2020; had two hurdle wins (2m5f and 2m4f) in 2025 and there have been bits of chase form in recent months; visor returning instead of blinkers might possibly help, but there are more likely candidates. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Flat/hurdles winner; ran encouragingly on his return to chasing but has failed to back up that effort in two starts since, taking record in this sphere to 0-8; admittedly well treated on best form. |

Posted best effort for these connections when third at Sedgefield in April (2m5f, good), before appearing to find it harder work last time; mixed record over stayers' trips, and would appreciate the ground drying out. |

Two Flat wins in Britain; ran in several good maiden hurdles; may find his level in handicaps now; tongue-tie fitted, market support would be significant, given how well Aidan Melia has done with Timurshah this season. |

12st 0lb |
Kept on well to collar Square d'Alboni in closing stages over C&D (good; first-time tongue-tie) last month and is now 3-4 over hurdles; still unexposed over this trip and features prominently in calculations. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Fairly useful Flat stayer who drew clear to score by over 6l at Aintree (2mf, good) in May and is now 2-3 over hurdles; has the big 12lb penalty here and Sean Bowen is replaced by an amateur but could be seen to even better effect over this longer trip; tongue-tie added. |

Four-time winner on the Flat for Richard Hughes and it's been a promising start over hurdles, winning a Southwell maiden last time without too much fuss (good); penalised accordingly but sets the standard. |

9st 12lb |
Regressive and inconsistent in recent times, finishing well held a couple of times since a surprise Epsom win off 1lb lower in July; the return to the AW won't hurt, as a four-time Tapeta winner, but others have more pressing claims. |

A tongue-tie was added to cheekpieces when off the mark for this yard, getting up late at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) in July; weak in the market under a penalty when beaten 5l in amateur riders' event over C&D (good) the following week; combination of this trip and slow ground will be new to him. |

9st 8lb |
Strong form when runner-up at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in May 2024; lightly raced since and unable to get competitive, most recently in Newmarket handicap (1m1f, good); it's possible he'll still be the main threat to Empirestateofmind, however; wears a first-time visor. |

2-4 for new stable, winning at Goodwood (1m4f, good; cheekpieces first time) before getting the better Epictetus over C&D last month; came unstuck at York in his hat-trick bid and this looks a competitive race in which to get back on track. |
