7th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Flat winner for Godolphin last September (1m4f; RPR 86) but well beaten in two good-quality Goodwood handicaps for new stable this year; could have a future over hurdles but is tricky to weigh up at present; visor removed after one use. |
7/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 97y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
1,500,000gns yearling but scored only once (1m4f; in cheekpieces) in five attempts for Charlie Appleby and was sold for 30,000gns in January; flopped in a 2m race on soft on final run for that yard and gave no immediate encouragement on yard debut in a competitive race here (2m, good) ten weeks ago, then refused to enter the stalls for a 1m4f race since; visor is added. |

6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Cost 1,500,000gns as a yearling but scored only once (over this trip) in five attempts for Charlie Appleby and was sold for 30,000gns in January; no immediate encouragement on his stable debut but that came in a competitive race here (2m, good) a fortnight go; drops back down in distance and might do better for a yard that's won this race for the last two years. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Losing run stretches back to July 2023 but he ended 2025 in good form and his reappearance at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) 18 days ago was a positive one; stepping back up in distance is a positive but he could do with the ground drying out. |
5/1 |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Serial winner in his younger days but been dry in almost three years; does have a comeback spring victory to his name but all other wins came in the second half of the year and he may need this at his age back from five months off. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Strong finish from rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 3lb higher and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his four efforts this season a long way behind him, however. |
20/1 |

6th 10 (11) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Strong finish from the rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 1lb higher than today and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his three efforts this season a long way behind him, latest when not faring nearly so well with the draw back in Chester Plate, and others have more pressing claims. |
25/1 |
|
14th 12 (16) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Strong finish from the rear secured this prize last year (good ground) off 1lb lower than today, but also from stall 4 compared to today's stall 16; also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his two efforts this season (1m4f, good) a long way behind him but this may be a much more favourable scenario if the draw does not scupper him. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won two 1m6f turf handicaps last June but inconsistent afterwards and unraced since a flop in October; left Charlie Johnston for 6,000gns 16 days later and had wind surgery in March; well handicapped (2lb above last winning mark) if he returns revived for new stable. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has only won a novice when aged two; has threatened in handicaps from 7f to 1m3f but now has to get himself back on track after three lesser shows. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Sole win came in a 1m novice as a 2yo and although he's run some good races on downhill tracks this year, including over C&D (good; acts on soft), he isn't obviously ahead of his mark; should be thereabouts even so. |
11/2 |

3rd 1 (1) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Sole win was in a Haydock novice two years ago; plenty of good runs for new yard this season but he was disappointing at Windsor on Saturday and needs to bounce back on this quick turnaround. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won this 12 months ago and returns on a hat-trick after another course win (made all) and a success at Salisbury that looked unlikely until he picked up late on; might travel sweeter back at this track and can cope with this mark. |
3/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned from three-month break with front-running win at Brighton (1m4f, good) in May and will be fine on the faster surface here but he's probably not quite as good as he was; younger rivals appeal more. |
11/4 |
|
1 (3) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ordinary form on the AW during the winter but he is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last August; off since February but he's respected back here on this return. |
13/2 |
