23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Runner-up three times in a row on AW this April-June, but below-par sixth at Kempton (1m, AW) three weeks ago and he failed to shine when tackling turf last year; has his first outing on grass of 2026. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Eight-time AW winner who has finished runner-up over C&D in his last three starts including a close call on his penultimate run; should give it another good shot and he's respected. |

Prolific winner who arrives on the back of three placed efforts over C&D; now 2lb higher but likely to give his running once again. |

26th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Five-race maiden with three seconds, including from the front in handicaps at Ascot (7f, good) and York (1m, good to soft; six ran) on last two outings; improving but dictating the pace in this field should be more tricky. |
4/1 |

2nd 8 (8) |
8th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Four races, best efforts when second in a novice at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) in June and a handicap at Ascot (7f, good; made most) on latest outing; boxed on well last time and worth another go at 1m (first attempt was debut); could still be capable of improvement, which is needed. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't won the races one of his ability should; 4lb lower than for his winning start for Stuart Williams in January (7f, AW) but that wasn't a springboard to better things; sold for 8,500gns this month; goes without headgear on first run for Tony Carroll; not sure what to expect. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Generally disappointing since returned to turf in May but seemed to respond well to first-time visor when close second off reduced mark at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; big player if in similar form here. |

Won on the AW over 7f at Chelmsford in January on his stable debut but he's been below his best on turf in recent starts, including when last of six over 1m here last month; visor now applied. |

21st Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

7f specialist who made all at Doncaster (good to firm) in August and ran just as well when second at Thirsk three weeks later; edging up the weights but again likely to be thereabouts. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
C&D scorer in 2023 who also won at Epsom (made all; 3lb higher today) last August; 2026 performances don't look good enough, third of five on last two outings. |
14/1 |

3rd 1 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Small-field 6f affair not ideal last time and this is a bit easier back in the visor for the first time this season; last summer's easy Epsom win off 4lb lower (made all) showed he's at home round switchback tracks and he's one to consider. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Stays 1m but all eight of his wins have come over 7f, the latest at Kempton 18 days ago; should get a good pace to aim at and he holds each-way claims again. |
11/2 |

1st 7 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Well held after a slow start here (1m) 12 days ago but that was after two solid placed efforts at Lingfield (7f/1m); losing run is now up to 15 but he's on a dangerous mark and could get involved if he gets a good pace and some luck; cheekpieces removed. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Still 4lb higher than when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in May but has been pretty consistent since rejoining Tony Carroll in March and probably won't be far away. |

Record of 11137 since switched to this C&D, latest effort best forgiven (race wasn't run to suit); this hold-up mare could prove dangerous, provided the pace fractions are back in her favour. |

Currently 1-33 and the fact he's been beaten at 7-2 or shorter ten times tells its own story; will again be popular under Rossa Ryan after a solid second to Arlecchino's Rex in a C&D handicap a fortnight ago though. |
