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. |
5/1 |

1st 7 (11) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Below par in first-time blinkers at Epsom last month but the good to soft ground may not have suited and he's back in a visor today, in which he went close at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in May; has an each-way shout. |
7/1 |

15th 15 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Won a Salisbury maiden (1m2f, good to firm) last June when sporting first-time cheekpieces for previous yard; yet to score for current stable but he's been placed on six of those seven starts and it was a narrow defeat when second of ten at Windsor (1m, good to firm; visored) under Silvestre De Sousa latest; soft going would ask a question but he's well drawn to go forward and newly fitted blinkers might eke out more. |

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. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (15) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Record of 3-9 includes two wins at the Newmarket tracks; good second, beaten only a neck, in the 7f handicap at Royal Ascot (good to firm) most recently; due to go up 3lb in future; strong contender. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 6 (31) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who was 3-5 last term, readily winning at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) final start; hindered by racing alone returned to that C&D last time; may still have more to offer and can't be written off; Billy Loughnane (up for first time) is a booking of note. |

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. |

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. |
20/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Leicester (1m, good to firm) last June when trained by Charlie Johnston and he went close at Southwell (1m, AW) on his final start for that yard; beat only one rival home on his stable debut 174 days ago and now has his first try over 6f; cheekpieces left off. |

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. |
6/1 |
|
4th 14 (11) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Overcame trouble to win at Leicester (1m) and nearly followed up at Doncaster; reportedly ran too freely there last time; could be given another chance off what remains a fair mark. |
20/1 |
|
8th 6 (8) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Off the mark on first run over 1m at Leicester (good to firm) this month, despite not getting the best of runs; backed it up when running on from the rear for neck second over C&D (good to firm) last Saturday; out again before a 2lb rise for that kicks in. |

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]
