22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Regained the winning thread at Ripon (5f, good) on stable/seasonal debut when 5lb lower and rider took off 7lb; this seems a harder task but he remains well treated on peak form and is a dual winner at Goodwood; enters calculations. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ten-time winner down the years for James Evans; drew a blank in 2025 but runner-up twice off marks in the 90s, including reappearance, so well treated starting out for Tony Carroll (same owners); interesting to see what the betting makes of him. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won over C&D (good to firm) last August and twice went close over C&D earlier this year (good); versatile ground-wise; he's gone off the boil more recently but perhaps the first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) and the return to this track will prompt a revival; on a reduced mark. |

23rd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Highly progressive in 2025, winning the Group 1 King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); also won on good to soft last year; it was his first run since when down the field at York recently and he may have needed it, but a dramatic transformation is required just ten days on. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Has built up a good strike rate over 5f/5.5f and registered a neck success at Royal Ascot (good to firm) upped to Group 1 level when last seen; landed a handicap at this meeting 12 months ago; very progressive and has possibilities provided he's as effective back at 6f. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Made outstanding progress in 5f handicaps and the way he raced to the front at York (good to firm) in May showed that a switch to Group company wouldn't be at all fanciful; unable to show what he was made of behind Mgheera in a Group 2 at Haydock (5f, good) since, as a gap shut as he was about to go through it, and he remains one to keep on the right side. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Reacted well to first-time cheekpieces when picking up nicely to collar a back-to-form rival (pair clear) at Haydock (5f, soft) on Thursday; 5lb penalty in a deeper race but a bigger factor could be that the ground is unlikely to be as testing this time (has won on good but seems most potent when the mud is flying). |

21st May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Returned to form when second at Beverley (5f, good) last month; sixth of seven there since (5f, good to soft) but beaten less than 2l and he's a three-time winner here (6f/5f, good-heavy); could be bang there now back here in first-time cheekpieces. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Last win came off a 6lb higher mark over C&D in April 2025 (good); runner-up in that equivalent race 11 days ago (good) and with rain about, could go well again. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinter in his prime but last win was four years ago and he's finished down the field in four runs this season; return to 6f in his favour but don't need much encouragement to look elsewhere. |

Veteran who was a smart sprinter in his prime but last win was four years ago and he's finished down the field in three runs this season; dropped another 3lb but he has lots to prove on this first run at 7f; visor removed. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
None too consistent but he surged back to form with a win at Hamilton (5f, good; made all) two weeks ago; that was only his second go in blinkers and he's again of interest off 4lb higher. |
8/1 |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
None too consistent but he had an excuse on his penultimate start and surged back to form to win at Hamilton (5f, good; made all) last Sunday; that was only his second go in blinkers and he's again of interest under a 5lb penalty. |

1st 5 (3) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Patchy last season and more of the same this term, failing to build on a Tapeta win off 3lb lower in three runs since; latest effort in first-time blinkers is readily ignored but it's hard to know what to expect for a yard also responsible for Mon Na Slieve. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Useful 5f turf form in 2025 but his season slowed down later in the year and he's been below best, despite the reduced mark, this term; 0-3 on Newcastle AW but he did handle that Tapeta earlier in his career, so perhaps the switch to this track might pay off in first-time headgear. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Second to Castan in a division of this race in 2025; led for a long way when fourth of eight at Musselburgh 17 days ago; 6lb below his last winning mark; has plenty in his favour. |

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. |
