On a losing run and he looked rusty after eight months off when tenth of 14 in 1m2f handicap at York on his return 20 days ago; this C&D winner can take a step forward here. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |

In prime form in July, winning twice (7f/1m) at Ayr, but the wheels seem to have come off since and he beat only one home on the same course last time; others preferred. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |

Back in prime form in July, winning twice here (1m/7f), but two slightly disappointing efforts have followed and he probably needs to rebound with a career-best performance; effective on all ground. |

Effective on fast and heavy ground; got back in the groove when winning twice at Ayr (1m/7f) in July but he was disappointing in hat-trick bid there last month; bit to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back near best. |

9st 2lb |
Three-time winner, the most recent coming at Carlisle (1m, good to firm) in June 2024; placed in each of his last four starts, albeit he was below his best last time, and once again has an each-way chance. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 7 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Last of his three wins came over C&D (good to firm) just over two years ago but he arrives off the back of three solid placed efforts, including when second over C&D ten days ago; mark is creeping back up but he needs considering. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 7 (6) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Four runs here have yielded two seconds and a win in this race in 2024; down the field in last year's renewal but after some modest efforts he's rediscovered his level of late, going close at Hamilton last month and finishing a close third at Ripon three weeks ago; yard going well and he's in the mix again. |

Won two in a row at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) in August but he's been well held in last two runs including when last of five at Newmarket (1m, soft) last week; has quite a bit to prove again and others are preferred. |
9/1 |

5th 6 (12) |
27th Sep 2024 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |

Consistent turf form this year includes two wins at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) in August; better than bare result (hampered) last time; however, faces a stiffer assignment back up in grade. |

8th 1 (8) |
31st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Back on the mark he defied over 1m6f at Wolverhampton in March but recent efforts haven't been obviously encouraging, for all the 7f trip of the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot is almost certainly too short for him these days. |
33/1 |
|
19th 27 (27) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Effective at 7f earlier in career but seems to need much further now and gained last three wins over 1m4f/1m6f (stays 2m); still has a much better strike-rate on AW than on turf in any case and looks unlikely to figure in this hot prize, back down sharply in distance. |
66/1 |
|
9th 6 (11) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Moving up to 1m4f worked well in December and comparable form at 1m6f/2m since, including another win three starts back; he's come up a bit short in warmer races this year, though, including behind Align The Stars at Kempton, and none of his turf form (admittedly at up to 1m2f) is close to this mark. |

9st 1lb |
Had the run of things up front when beating four rivals at Beverley (1m4f, good) and only sixth since then over 2m and 1m6f; this is probably a better trip but he's not the easiest to predict. |
20/1 |

28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Allowed to dictate when winning a five-runner race at Beverley (1m4f) in May; ran respectably over 1m6f the time before but weakened out of it off this 4lb higher mark over 2m on latest; back to 1m6f but others are a little more persuasive. |
16/1 |

10th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 5 |

No problem with 1m4f but is still to totally prove his stamina over this far; was allowed to dictate when beating a small field last time and a 4lb rise puts him on a career-high mark. |

Six-time winner who finished a close third in this race off 9lb higher last year; took advantage of a slipping mark when making all to beat King Of Charm at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) in this headgear combination three weeks ago and a 4lb nudge still leaves him competitively weighted. |
5/1 |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

C&D winner but his last success was almost two years ago; very well treated on old form but he's struggled in last five starts including after wind surgery here (1m good; 22-1) two weeks ago; blinkers are now tried and cheekpieces are removed. |
10/1 |

Placed twice over 1m since joining Gemma Tutty in the spring and probably wasn't suited by the drop to 7f when sixth in Class 4 handicap on latest outing; eased significantly in grade for this first venture beyond 1m and ought to pose a significant threat. |

Just one win from his 21 starts but he's been a creditable third on two of his three starts this season, most recently at Chepstow (7f, good); he's probably fine on good to soft; in the mix if he's on another going day. |

Only 1-20 but his comeback run was encouraging, over 1m at Pontefract; Wetherby next time was disappointing but he did go down by only a neck on his last run over 7f (last August) and he's his Yorkshire-based yard's only runner on the card; Oisin Murphy rides. |

Wildly inconsistent these days but boasts a decent record round here (five wins from 19 starts); back around the mark off which he won here in March (awarded the race) and he is quite capable of bouncing back from two poor efforts on turf. |

Runner-up twice in a row on AW in the winter before two heavy defeats; didn't run badly back on turf at Haydock (1m, good) last month after a break but the AW seems to be his preferred sphere (just 1-15 on grass). |

Four-time AW winner but he was disappointing at Southwell (1m) in his final two runs during the winter; has won on turf but that was a long time ago and he doesn't have a great record when fresh; opposable on return. |
