5th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Never posed a threat on first two starts, but she made all in a novice at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in July and was always in touch when following up on handicap debut at Sandown (1m2f, good) five weeks ago; up 8lb but she galloped on strongly last time and has more to offer at this trip. |

1st 8 (5) |
30th Aug 2024 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Never posed a threat at Ascot (1m2f, good to soft) or Goodwood (1m, good) before she won a nine-runner novice at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last month, making all; going back up to 1m2f should be viable, in which case she'd bring potential to this handicap debut. |

15th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Never posed a threat in maiden at Ascot (1m2f, good to soft; last of six) or novice at Goodwood (1m, good) but showed fair form in both; well-bred filly with each-way claims and possibly some potential. |

23rd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
22-1 winner of the Group 3 Valiant Stakes at Ascot (1m, good) last July and good fourth in US Grade 3 (1m, firm) next time; of interest on that form but tailed off in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on reappearance at Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm) three weeks ago; unraced on slow ground. |
25/1 |
|
10th 5 (13) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Developed into a very useful sort last term, notably Group/Grade 3 performances at Ascot (won) and Kentucky Downs (ran well); chance of landing this prize depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |

4th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Made her name as a handicapper but popped up at 22-1 in a Group 3 at Ascot (1m, good) in July and was unlucky not to finish closer in America last time (1m Grade 3m, firm); however, whether she's up to this class is debatable, and rain could scupper things anyway (unraced on anything easier than good). |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Won a good-ground maiden here last June but hasn't offered much in five handicaps subsequently; his mark is dropping if nothing else. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Got off the mark in a Worcester maiden (2m, good) last June but has been beaten in four handicaps since; his mark continues to drop but he doesn't look ready to take advantage. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won over 1m6f at Redcar in August but hasn't given himself a chance in two subsequent races after pulling hard, with and without the hood; risky. |
11/2 |

5th 2 (3) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Ran below market expectations, having raced freely, last time when bidding for a Redcar double (1m6f); upped further in distance but may settle better and rebound with hood reapplied. |

4th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Recorded his sixth Flat win when scoring at Sandown in August and he's won twice over hurdles since then, with his latest success in a Huntingdon handicap (2m, good) last month; open to more progress in this sphere and he's strongly respected on this switch to a claimer. |

took keen hold, raced in second, jumped slightly right 2nd, led after 3rd, pestered home turn, good jump 2 out, ridden out run-in, always doing enough |

30th Aug 2024 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
1m2f second last year on his only race at Sandown; second off today's mark at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) on penultimate start was easily the best of his four runs on turf this season but his only win remains an AW maiden. |
11/1 |

10th 9 (10) |
15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Looked to be suited by the step back up in trip when runner-up at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, despite not looking at home on the track; may be able to build on that performance today and he's a possible. |
10/1 |

2nd 6 (8) |
1st Aug 2024 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |

took keen hold, in touch with leaders, headway on outer after 3f, soon hampered rival, edged left and hampered 4f out, hung left from over 2f out, soon led, no extra and headed towards finish |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His last win was off 9lb higher over 1m4f at Brighton in September 2023; some efforts on AW during the winter were respectable but his return to Brighton last month saw him tailed off after a slow start; none too solid. |
12/1 |

21st May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
His last success was off 7lb higher over C&D (good) but that was in September 2023; some respectable efforts on AW during the winter and wasn't disgraced back over hurdles in March but others are more persuasive. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Turf winner who has bagged four wins at this venue; returns following a two-month break (has gone well fresh) but he's more a place prospect than a win-only one. |
20/1 |
|
2 (5) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Returned to form with 8.6f AW win in March and comes here after two good efforts over 1m on turf; drops in grade here and should be fine over this extended 7f; might be the answer. |
7/2 |
|
8 (6) |
18th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner who returned to form when scoring at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March; record of 1-18 on turf but he went close at Chepstow (1m, good) last month and is a big player if he can back that up off unchanged mark. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
3-41; 7lb lower than when making a successful reappearance at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) around this time last year and he has offered a little bit of encouragement in his last couple of outings; off 11 weeks, but could go well at a price. |
16/1 |
|
8th 2 (7) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On a losing run but he hinted at a revival under a patient ride when fifth of 13 in C&D handicap last month; he must enter calculations on these terms. |
9/1 |
|
7th 10 (11) |
15th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Often runs well fresh, so the break looks in his favour, and two of his wins have come at big prices; capable of popping up off a career-low mark but he'll need to bounce back after a poor summer. |
