28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable fourth in the Great Metropolitan on last year's card; one win last year but it did come here in July and he was a respectable second at this track (also 1m2f, good to soft; has won on good) in September; below par over 1m on his final start in October and this trip again asks a question; market might help ahead of his comeback. |

Usually gives his running and best of the rest behind an in-form rival at Epsom a month ago (1m2f, good to soft); that is more his trip though. |

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. |
12/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
1m2f win here in April in a consistent season, bar one blip; raced freely in the lead when she last tried this sort of trip (penultimate start) but she did well over 11.4f on soft when held up last October; each-way player. |
10/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Bar one blip she's been running well for George Scott and won over this trip at Haydock in April off the very same mark; last two runs weren't bad at all, having not got the run of things at Ripon and she raced freely when third at Catterick (1m4f). |

11st 1lb |
Seven-time winner from 1m-1m2f; not on a bad mark on the pick of last season's efforts, but he has been absent for 193 days and and an inexperienced amateur takes the ride (first Flat ride under rules). |

Goodwood regular this term, winning twice over 1m1f; runner-up over 1m2f on heavy most recently; running well and must have a solid chance; has form here. |

29th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Beaten half a length or less in his last two starts at Newmarket (1m2f/1m4f); has winning form on Tapeta (at Wolverhampton) and is 8lb lower than when last on the AW, but losing run up to 14; needs a bit more. |

3rd 3 (6) |
23rd Aug 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has won four middle-distance handicaps and latest was off 9lb higher at Chester (1m4f, good) last June; 0-13 since but he bounced back with a close call over 1m2f here last Friday and is a big player if he can repeat that form (due to be 2lb higher in future). |

8st 12lb |
Finally got off the mark at Lingfield (1m2f, good) and has continued in good form in the main since, narrowly winning over this C&D (good to firm) last time; just 1lb higher today and he's high on the list. |
11/2 |

1st 9 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Finally got off the mark in 1m2f classified event at Lingfield in January; has continued in good form and challenged wide when sixth in another classified event there in March; in the mix again. |
9/2 |

6th 11 (10) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Best of those to race on the pace at Newcastle two weeks ago; excuses for his only below-par effort this year (C&D) and goes on the shortlist under Rossa Ryan. |

6th 9 (3) |
23rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winless since 2023 but he ran a big race at a big price when third in classified event at Lingfield (1m2f) last month; that was eyecatching from off the pace and he has each-way claims again if he can repeat that form. |
6/1 |

3rd 6 (9) |

Winless since 2023 and he beat only one after six months off in 1m2f classified event at Chelmsford ten days ago; he's not easy to make a case for. |

1m win on Polytrack one year ago; yet to win a handicap but several good runs this year and he was a close third at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft) last month; not ruled out. |

3rd 6 (4) |
22nd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |

Sole 3yo in this field; placed in 8.5f seller and 1m2f handicap at Beverley in July; well held on soft going most recently; record is just 1-17 but he has the best chance at the weights. |

Struggled for current stable, including at this level, and a new tongue-tie (often wears headgear but goes without today) isn't enough to tempt. |
