19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Improved on last year's turf form when returned to the AW over the winter, but he went up the weights and his challenge never seriously materialised in the Victoria Cup over C&D (good to firm) in May, when a one-paced sixth of 17; dropped just 1lb and needs more for first-time cheekpieces; sold for £320,000 this week. |

Below par in the 2024 Cambridgeshire but otherwise has a solid record, creditable second at Newcastle (1m) on AW finals day most recently; likely to cope with drop back to 7f on this track; in the mix. |

Placed on first five starts (including on soft) before dominant display in Lingfield handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in June; saddle slipped and lost weightcloth at York six days later (eased; disqualified); he's 11lb higher than two starts ago but this unexposed 4yo could have more to offer. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Both wins were at 1m2f in 2024; good third off a reduced mark at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month but he was only fourth of six over C&D last time; that took his overall record to 2-32 and others are preferred. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins at 1m2f in 2024 but he has run well over this C&D and, after a slow start to the year, he showed more when a close third of eight at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last week; on the premises again. |

Chelmsford win (1m2f, AW) in June 2023 after 607 days off is miles ahead of his other form; ridden that day by Christian Howarth and when respectable fifth of nine at Yarmouth last month following another long layoff; runner-up sole start on soft; not totally ruled out. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner who won this race 12 months ago and bounced back to form out of the blue when springing a 33-1 surprise in 7f Ascot handicap (good to firm) 26 days ago; put back up 4lb but last year's success came off 5lb higher so he retains plenty of handicapping scope. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won the 2022 Cambridgeshire but his only win since came in Bahrain (1m2f, good) last January; came from further back than the winner when runner-up at Windsor (around 1m4f) in June but he failed to beat a rival home over 1m6f at Newmarket last month; drop back in trip should suit. |
7/1 |

10th 7 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Won the 1m1f Cambridgeshire at Newmarket in September 2022 but his solitary win since was in Bahrain (1m2f) in January 2025; went close over 1m4f last August and runner-up over 11.4f at Windsor 13 days ago, but this trip (well beaten trying 1m5f once last year) is doubtful territory. |

Winless since successful in Bahrain (1m2f) in January 2025, but he got back on track with fourth of seven in 1m3f handicap at Hamilton last month; this veteran is no forlorn hope off a 2lb lower mark. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Five turf wins but has done most of his winning on the AW; surprising to see blinkers back on having won in a visor at Chester last month and then beaten only 4l in a Class 2 handicap at Goodwood; if that doesn't backfire then has possibilities. |
10/1 |

8th 11 (9) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Took form to a new level on AW early this year, which he's not repeated but winning at Chester (1m2f, good) 18 days ago was a return to his best turf form; back up 3lb today, well held in this race two years ago (his only handicap here) and he also has more to prove on ground firmer than good. |
