12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Rattled off a four-timer (good to firm/good/soft) in 2024 and landed his first two starts of 2025, latterly the City & Suburban (also 1m2f) at Epsom in April; just one good run from four starts in Meydan this winter but his British return, when second at Goodwood with two of these behind six weeks ago, could be a run to build on. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |

Dual winner last spring (including over C&D) and comes here in good nick after a spell in Meydan; he's not discounted. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Ran in snatches and reportedly hung right when well beaten at Haydock latest; something to prove after that but progressive previously, winning twice in the spring (1m2f, good), and could bounce back with a big run. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Latest of his useful Flat form was an AW win in February 2025 but he failed to shine in his other two Flat starts last year; flourished as a hurdler instead and perhaps this run will be needed before a return to that sphere; the market may guide. |
10/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Has performed well in several notable handicaps, including a strong success at Windsor (2m; beat the subsequent County winner) in January and good second at the Cheltenham Festival (upped to 2m4f, soft) last time; solid contender who looks set for another big run. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |

Fairly useful hurdler at about 2m and ran creditably (lost two places close home; finished fourth) in the Fred Winter at this meeting 12 months ago; bagged a valuable pot at Windsor (soft) in January but form dipped last time; goes into unknown territory over this longer distance. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
All four of his wins were on soft or heavy ground, three at Goodwood; runner-up on his only two visits here, including at this meeting (good to soft) last year and he's 1lb lower today; that was over 8.5f and his creditable fifth on reappearance ten weeks ago was in the 1m Lincoln at Doncaster, but he stays 1m2f; strong each-way claims. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Very capable off this mark when on his game but he refused to race on final run of last season and hasn't looked overly keen to get involved this campaign. |
50/1 |

11th 6 (10) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
4-9 over C&D including landing this race three years ago, but his starts have increasingly become a problem, flatly refusing to do so here in October; too risky. |
20/1 |

10th 9 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Increasing tendency to blow the start last season culminated in a refusal to race on final appearance; that was at Newbury, where he'd previously been at his best; he's contrastingly 0-6 on AW and none of his form in this sphere lives up to today's mark; probably best watched. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Two course wins to his name as well as a few placed efforts; latest 1m4f run not the race to judge him on but still looks a shade high in the weights for a race like this. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Multiple winner down the years, including at this track, and all ground seems to come alike to him; dropping back into Class 4 will help but his stamina has to be taken on trust. |
20/1 |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |

9yo who won two in a row at Lingfield (1m2f/1m1f, good to firm) and maybe went off too hard when well beaten at Sandown (1m2f, good) last time; has won here twice and he might not be far away if bouncing back. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 55y |
9st 13lb |
Four wins in Britain at up to an extended 1m3f; should stay okay and her fairly encouraging fifth on yard debut at Galway (1m4f, soft) was after a long absence; possibilities. |
11/2 |
|
5th 2 (14) |
8th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 0y |

Four wins in Britain, none over quite as far as this; should stay; probably worth a market check on her first start for Gavin Cromwell after almost a year on the sidelines. |
12/1 |

8th 2 (8) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Multiple turf winner at up to 11.5f; less effective on AW surfaces but her best such effort was when last tried at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in May; if able to repeat that form she would have claims from this 5lb lower mark but she's not easy to predict. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Useful Flat racer who won a 2m maiden hurdle here in July and was close second over C&D (also on good) when upped in trip for last month's handicap debut; seemingly overlooked by Sean Bowen today but helps to give trainer Olly Murphy a good hand in this race. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Useful Flat performer for the Crisfords; has made a solid start over hurdles, winning over 2m here and then fourth when penalised at Uttoxeter; should have a future off this sort of mark. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Respectable Flat form for the Crisfords and has made a bright start over hurdles, winning as he liked last time at Worcester (good); the second nearly went one better next time; a strong contender even with a penalty. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Winning miler for Andrew Balding; quiet stable debut but has perked up for blinkers, going close at Ayr (1m2f) and Hamilton (8.3f); kept on well last time, suggesting this return to further will benefit. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A fair 1m scorer for Andrew Balding in 2024; off 22 months but quickly back on track with second of ten in 1m2f handicap at Ayr 11 days ago; needs considering off an unchanged mark. |
7/1 |
