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. |

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. |

All five wins on the AW and not a lot wrong with his recent efforts at Kempton and Southwell, the latest a 7f Racing League Handicap; stays this far and can again make presence felt. |

29th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Behind a couple of these over C&D last month but he signalled he was ready to strike when second at Kempton two weeks ago, coming from well back having been dropped in from a wide stall; 3lb rise shouldn't prevent a bold showing. |

10th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Dual Tapeta winner who ran well from a wide stall on his Polytrack debut in August (first-time cheekpieces); not as good at Southwell last time but is back on his last winning mark and one of his wins came fresh, so the six-week break may help. |
10/1 |
|
14th 9 (6) |
29th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Can race too freely and hasn't won as often as one of his ability probably should, but he's on a good mark and turned in a solid effort in cheekpieces (retained) at Kempton two weeks ago; work to do with Ayr Harbour on that form though and his yard may have stronger claims with Kodi Lion. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Can lead; all eight wins on the AW, five over this C&D; faded into midfield having been drawn wide here in May and soft ground can be given as an excuse for failing to beat a rival at Goodwood (1m) two months ago; could go well back on this surface. |

8th 6 (6) |
12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Can lead; multiple AW wins at 7f and 1m but he's 0-14 on turf and it's a long time since he's been any threat on grass; up against it in only his fifth turf start in the last two years. |

10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Just 3-26 on turf but this C&D does work well for him and he gained a deserved first win on the track when just fending off Uncle Don (good to firm) in May; has had going (good to soft) and trip (5f) excuses since but this company could be overwhelming. |
16/1 |

4th 1 (6) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Ended 2025 with three consecutive 6f AW wins and was successful twice on turf in the spring (5.7f/6f); does not have much margin for error off current mark, though, and this 63rd career start is his first over 5f. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Four wins from ten starts over C&D but looked on the downgrade during a limited campaign last year and turned in an ordinary comeback here two months ago; some way down the pecking order. |
25/1 |

7th 1 (2) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His last four wins have been over C&D but latest was in August 2024; well handicapped on old form but he's been out of sorts in three runs for his current yard and was beaten 12l here (6f) in December; returns after a break and needs a major revival back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

First reserve; only 7s when beaten 8l behind Orandi over 1m here on Tuesday, weakening up the hill; good record over this trip, though, and ground-versatile, so not one to dismiss. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |

Ended 2025 with a pair of heavy-ground wins at Doncaster (7f); useful form in defeat this year, in the frame in competitive York handicaps (good ground) on consecutive days last month; another good run when fifth of 17 on quick going at the same venue last time; ground-versatile, trip a worry. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

Front-runner whose most recent win was at Kempton (1m, AW) last October off 1lb lower; not so good in his only four races since; absent 187 days before his last of 12 at Sandown four weeks ago, so he's a touch speculative this time. |

Both wins have come here (6f/7f), the latest two starts ago; kept on for 2l fifth of 12 over C&D last time on her first crack at 1m and can better that performance when getting a stronger gallop, but there are doubts on that score this afternoon. |

His only win came in a 7f Doncaster maiden as a 2yo; struggled for David Evans thus far but he's dropped 22lb since August and many of those runs have come over an inadequate 6f; the booking of Rossa Ryan and the addition of a visor point to a better showing this evening; confidence would increase if backed. |
