1st 1 (5) |
19th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Has made up into a useful handicapper for James Owen and gained a first win for the yard at Newmarket (1m) in July; back from a break with a very good ninth of 27 in the Cambridgeshire there last time; holds solid place prospects. |
14/1 |

8th 7 (21) |
26th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Produced a career-best performance when a well-backed winner on the other Newmarket course (1m, good to firm) in July; a case can be made on that form but he wasn't at the same level at Ascot (1m, good to firm) subsequently and has to leave that run behind. |
33/1 |

7th 4 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
With this visor back on, and back on better ground, he returned to form with a well-backed win at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) a fortnight ago, coming clear with a runner-up who was returning from a long absence and won at Sandown on Thursday; an 8lb rise might not stop him. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Has progressed into a smart performer this year, placing in two major 7f handicaps, including at Royal Ascot, and Listed races at Newbury (6f) and Newmarket (7f); likely to be on the premises. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
18th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Very useful performer who scored three times last term; placed in two major 7f handicaps, including at Royal Ascot, and 6f Listed contest at Newmarket this summer; solid claims back up in trip. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who finished close up in valuable 7f handicaps at Royal Ascot and here (both good to firm) on last two appearances; doesn't have that much to find with the principals on this return to Listed company but has never run in a sprint before. |

10th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Steadily progressive sort who won over 7f at Kempton on reappearance and ran respectably on handicap debut (1m) last time; switches to turf for the first time but open to improvement and should go well. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
17th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
$210,000 yearling; made a successful return from 209 days off in a slowly run Kempton novice (7f, Polytrack) last month; open to further progress now making his handicap debut; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
3 (2) |
28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
$210,000 yearling; ran green when fifth on Wolverhampton debut last October and he built on that with a promising third at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) 24 days later; that form puts him firmly in the picture and he's respected on return. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
1-11 for Charlie Johnston, for whom he was also beaten a neck over C&D last October; hasn't found his form in four runs for new yard, tailed off on turf latest, which puts him down the list. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
He hasn't found his best form in three runs for Rod Millman but he is dropping down the weights and he has one of the more experienced riders on board; could revive. |
12/1 |
|
6th 5 (4) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Yard in flying form but this gelding has it to prove, having been off since a poor turf comeback in May; two previous runs on Polytrack weren't great either, while an easy 7f looks a bare minimum. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win from 18 starts came at Leicester (1m, good to firm) in July off the same mark as today's; bounced back from a poor run on soft ground when third of 12 at Southwell (1m, AW) two weeks ago, but he'll need them to go a solid gallop now returning to this shorter trip. |

3rd 12 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

First and second in 1m turf handicaps during the height of summer but his form has dropped off. |

10th 2 (7) |
2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Off the mark at Leicester in July (1m, good to firm) and sound effort when second at Doncaster next time (1m, good to firm); not quite so good last twice; has form on good to soft, but first run on soft ground. |

7th 7 (12) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Seriously progressive this season in 1m handicaps, including a near miss in the Lincoln (good to soft; won on soft) and victory in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (good to firm); dispelled any doubts about his Group-race credentials when emerging from last in a steadily run race to push Lake Forest to a neck in the 7f Lennox at Glorious Goodwood (good); that effort deserves an upgrade, so he's in the mix. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive handicapper who landed the Hunt Cup from favourable draw at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) most recently; faces a stiffer task on these terms but possibly hasn't reached his ceiling yet and a strike-rate of 5-6 over 7f bodes well. |
10/1 |
|
1st 28 (33) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Failed to fire in French Listed race last time; broadly progressive in handicaps and went close in the Lincoln when bidding for a five-timer (ran creditably in Spring Cup next time); however, chance partly depends on the weather, as he's ideally suited by ground softer than good. |
16/1 |
Verdict
Godolphin runners MUSIC OF TIME and Palmarian are particularly interesting, in that provisional order of preference, with room for flexibility depending on the market signals. The betting should provide further guidance across the board in this contest for newcomers.[Steve Boow]
