11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Usually seen over further but he goes well on slow ground and is only 1lb higher than for his big-field win at York last summer (7f, good to soft); big run wouldn't be a bolt from the blue. |

1st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't appear to be crying out for the return to 1m at Doncaster and weakened late on; this is his trip, over which he was twice runner-up at Wolverhampton in March; not handicapped out of it, either. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Had an excellent spell last autumn, winning two of his final three starts at 1m (good and heavy); needed further progress to win the Spring Mile at Doncaster in March and that didn't happen but he ran well for a long way; can be more of a factor under Brodie Hampson who won this last year. |
5/2 |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
An ideal type for this prize having ended last term with a C&D win, showing career-best form; that was on heavy but he seems versatile as regards ground; further progress is not out of the question; shortlisted. |
7/1 |

Did well last autumn (including heavy-ground win) and back to form with a 1m Windsor success (good) in September; only a respectable fourth at Nottingham (good to soft) since, though. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Has won over 1m but better at shorter and this extended trip might prove beyond him; not beaten far over 7.4f on Saturday; Billy Loughnane booked but others appeal more for win purposes. |
12/1 |

5th 8 (2) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Scored three times at 7f/1m on the AW in 2025 but his more recent form is far less encouraging, last of eight in 1m handicap at Nottingham last month; visor goes on the first time here. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Last three wins have been on the AW, the most recent off a 6lb higher mark at Newcastle (7f) in December; below his best there over 1m after becoming upset in the stalls 90 days ago and needs to bounce back returned to turf on his first start since. |

26th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Five-race maiden with three seconds, including from the front in handicaps at Ascot (7f, good) and York (1m, good to soft; six ran) on last two outings; improving but dictating the pace in this field should be more tricky. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 8 (8) |
8th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Four races, best efforts when second in a novice at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) in June and a handicap at Ascot (7f, good; made most) on latest outing; boxed on well last time and worth another go at 1m (first attempt was debut); could still be capable of improvement, which is needed. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Four wins for William Muir and Chris Grassick; winless for current yard last year and has dropped to a career-low mark on first run for 209 days; may be best watched this time. |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in March off a mark 10lb higher than today but he's mostly struggled since; returns to 1m and drops in grade with the cheekpieces back on and tongue-tie removed. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good) in March off a 7lb higher mark when tongue tied first time but, with that equipment retained, he's mostly struggled since; needs a revival. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Back to winning ways off this mark at Lingfield (1m, AW; cheekpieces first time) in April; he hasn't built on that and others may have his measure. |
14/1 |
|
7th 10 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month but not at the same level at Epsom (8.5f, good) and Kempton (7f, AW) since, and needs to get back on track. |
20/1 |

8th 2 (11) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Added to a good record in the spring when winning off 2lb lower at Lingfield (1m) last month in first-time cheekpieces; a long way below that level on turf since and this trip is a bare minimum round here, especially from a wide stall. |
