24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Well suited by slow ground; attractively handicapped and his last two runs have both been promising, meeting trouble before finishing off strongly at Newcastle last month; high on the list. |
4/1 |

4th 9 (10) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
1lb lower than for his Doncaster win 12 months ago (7f, soft); several creditable runs in handicaps this season but he will need to pull out a bit more if he's to come out on top. |
12/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Not troubled the judge this season but hasn't been running badly, last time behind Native Warrior on the AW in late June; a triple winner on ground softer than good so connections have no doubt been waiting for some rain; worth considering. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Failed to beat a rival in Group race last time; seemed to run well in the Victoria Cup over C&D in his most recent handicap attempt but was always favourably positioned the way the race went and needs to prove he can back up the form; still on career-high mark. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
5yo who won three handicaps last year (including on heavy ground) and has been better than ever in such races this season, finishing second at Musselburgh (7f, good to soft) then fourth of 28 in the Victoria Cup at Ascot (7f, good); however, he has something to find against today's opponents. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (23) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Good second at Musselburgh (7f) with reappearance under his belt but is by no means certain to go one better off 103 in this deep field; has gained all handicap wins off marks in in the high-90s and still needs to prove he can break the triple-digit barrier. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Strong 6f form here until a disappointing run eight days ago, tanking through the race but finding little off the bridle; should be fine back at 5f and he remains on a dangerous mark. |
7/2 |
|
9th 7 (3) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Has turf form but starting to look like an AW specialist, rewarding market support when seeing off Heavenly Heather and 11 others over C&D two months ago; weighted to confirm the form with his old adversary and he is still 2lb lower than for his fine C&D second last May; strong claims. |
5/1 |
|
7 (13) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Began his time with Julie Camacho with two solid runs in the spring, notably when second of 13 at Newcastle (6f); things have gone south since, albeit in top sprints, and a wind operation didn't arrest the slide at Haydock four weeks ago; cheekpieces return (ran well over 7f here in one previous use); stable also runs Solar Aclaim. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Acts on soft and good to firm; similar type to Mission To Moon, being a consistent 3yo; close fourth to Telemark at Doncaster (7f) most recently; frame possibilities off the same mark. |
7/1 |
|
4th 11 (2) |
15th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won at Sandown (7f, good to soft) in June and has run well in defeat on his four starts since, most recently fifth back at Sandown (7f, good) where not helped by a slow start; might not be far away. |
15/2 |

5th 6 (8) |
31st Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Ran creditably on Eclipse day, taking his C&D record to 112, and has remained in form elsewhere since; successful in the nursery on this card 12 months ago and commands respect returned to Sandown. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Capable of fairly useful form but finished last of 18 over C&D in final start for Jamie Osborne; sold for 18,000gns later in October; headgear switch; best watched. |
33/1 |

6 (18) |
24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won a heavy-ground handicap at Salisbury last month and backed it up with a good second at Newmarket; below that level at Goodwood 12 days ago and needs a full revival. |
20/1 |
|
4 (3) |
12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Back to winning ways at Salisbury (6f, heavy) last month and second at Newmarket (6f, heavy) since; this in-form C&D winner has solid claims. |

15th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
No margin for error off this mark but it was a Class 2 in which he wasn't beaten far at Doncaster a month ago (7f, soft); enters the reckoning. |
7/1 |
|
6th 9 (7) |
15th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Finished last at Newcastle (7f, AW) last time but pulled hard off a slow pace; this hold-up horse was progressive previously and has won this year at York (7f, good to soft) and Haydock (7f, good to firm); each-way possible. |
14/1 |
|
12th 9 (11) |
22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Making good progress in 7f handicaps this year, beating 18 rivals at York in May and then picking up best to win at Haydock 12 days ago (Boardman second); this is tougher but on the up; well held in one AW run but it was after six months off. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
All races over 7f until running a screamer in a close third of 28 (good to firm) in this race last year; ready winner of his next 6f start, on the AW last October; has had some trip and aids switches for new yard but looked back on a better path when a close, staying-on second in a 5f Carlisle Listed race (first-time cheekpieces replaced regular tongue-tie) last time; 3lb well in and has a big run in him back over C&D. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
5-10 at 6f/7f for Harry Charlton; unplaced all four outings since joining current stable, finishing in midfield in Victoria Cup at Ascot most recently; unproven at 5f; wears headgear for the first time; others appeal more. |
14/1 |
|
13th 4 (29) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Broadly progressive for previous yard but proved disappointing in this race last year, having raced freely; ran well in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot next time; not particularly solid on his 2026 form for new stable and it remains to be seen whether he settles returned to this C&D. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ran his best race for new connections when third of 21 in a 0-85 over C&D four weeks ago; mark left unchanged but he does need to prove himself on ground firmer than good. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 16 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hasn't won since 2024 but he's starting to look well handicapped; heavily backed when sixth of 20 behind Lord Roxby and Yes I'm Mali over C&D three weeks ago; bit more needed but he could be building up to something. |
14/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Split James's Delight and Elmonjed in top 3yo handicap over C&D (good to soft) in 2024; failed to win in 2025 but he has edged down the weights and his three runs for Paul Midgley have been quite encouraging, faring best of those in the far-side group when sixth of 16 back on turf at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 37 days ago; considered. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner over 7f for his previous stable but was third over this trip at Windsor in September; well held in both starts since returning from a break and first-time blinkers now replace cheekpieces; dropped another 3lb. |
14/1 |
|
10th 4 (8) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All three wins came on the AW when trained by Kevin Philippart De Foy but he's twice been placed on turf since joining this stable, including on soft; well held at Pontefract (6f, good) in April but may have needed that first start for 194 days. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (7) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 7f winner for Kevin Philippart de Foy in 2024; largely in good form for his current yard last term so he's no forlorn hope on his return. |
