20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Not won since his stellar campaign in 2024 but there has been promise this year, including at Hamilton on Friday; 2lb lower today and now sports cheekpieces for the first time; chance. |
9/2 |

3rd 6 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
10yo who is winless since August 2024 and needs to improve upon his last few performances; however, he's a nine-time course winner, including this race in 2024, and his reduced mark appeals on form as recent as this May; not discounted. |

8th 4 (9) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Regressive 10yo who has not won since 2024; ran well on consecutive 7f starts in April/May and is well handicapped on those efforts but recent sprint form has been below par. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Arrives in fine form and bidding for a hat-trick following back-to-back 6f wins here, emphatically making all on latter occasion; has won over the minimum trip too so rates a big player under a 4lb penalty. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Has performed well in both starts over C&D, including a game success 16 days ago (good); much more exposed than his rivals, but still high on list from 3lb higher. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Much the oldest contestant in this field, being a 9yo, and he's conceding weight all round; managed to defy top weight at Redcar on penultimate start but that was in a slightly lower grade. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Well handicapped on last year's C&D form for Karl Burke but refused to race in April on final outing for that yard and down the field over C&D on recent stable debut, when again awkward at the start; risks attached. |
33/1 |
|
14th 6 (6) |
11th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten 16 times since his C&D win in September 2023; has often run well in defeat, including here, but he put a major black mark on his record at Nottingham in April, belatedly leaving the stalls but downing tools and bucking around immediately afterwards; the combination of a subsequent stable switch/wind surgery/change of headgear could all be beneficial and there's no doubt he has the ability to win a race like this; risky but feared. |

18th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Creditable sixth of 28 in the 5f 3yo Palace Of Holyrood House Handicap at Royal Ascot (good to firm); not at the same level the next twice but he's not written off, now 3lb lower than at the Royal meeting. |
9/1 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
3rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
No improvement for a sixth furlong and/or slower ground at Newmarket last month; had been threatening something bigger before that though and he's interesting with a stiff 5f likely to suit. |
5/1 |
|
10th 3 (16) |
11th Jul 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Raced exclusively at 5f, on firm ground in the US and on good or faster since joining Richard Fahey; has strongly suggested that a sixth furlong would be beneficial, keeping on stoutly at Royal Ascot three weeks ago, and this mark probably not beyond him; slower ground is an unknown factor but his smart half-brother Kerdos acts on it and his dam recorded her only win on soft; interesting. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four-time turf winner who won off today's mark at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February; however, he's finished down the field on his last four starts and a major turnaround is necessary. |
12/1 |
|
11th 3 (13) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won three 5f AW handicaps through the winter but his last three efforts were nothing to shout about; capable on turf but needs to turn a corner. |
14/1 |

9th 10 (6) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
In good form for much of the winter, winning three 5f handicaps, but his form has cooled on his last two starts; others look stronger in this grade. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
On a long losing run and he ended 2025 below par in 5f handicaps at Hamilton and Haydock last autumn; needs to hit the ground running after eight months off. |
20/1 |
|
7th 8 (10) |
17th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
C&D winner in 2023; landed a ninth win when scoring at Hamilton last September and finished third to Impressor there (also 5f, soft) last month; reared in stalls and weakened quickly at that venue one week later, though; career-low mark can only help. |
