2nd 4 (1) |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Has won two of his last four races, with the latest at Lingfield (visor remover; 1m, AW) quite decisive at the finish; carries no penalty and he's 6lb well in; 0-9 on turf but effective on the surface. |
100/30 |

1st 2 (3) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Course winner over 7f three starts back off 9lb lower; went close at Southwell (7f, AW) when ridden by Jude Fernandes next time but blew his chance by hanging right over this C&D three days ago; visor is removed and he needs to bounce back. |
4/1 |
|
5th 2 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Took advantage of a career-low mark when scoring here (7f) last month; a shade unlucky when beaten a short head at Southwell (7f, AW) since and should not be far away. |

25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
A repeat of the form which netted him a C&D second last month (good to firm) off today's mark would take him close; hard to blame his Doncaster flop since on the return to a 1m trip he has won over before. |
8/1 |
|
11th 15 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Back in better form over 7f at Doncaster and Leicester the last twice; still attractively treated, having gained sole handicap win off 12lb higher (over 1m); respected. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 8 (7) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His form has deteriorated since his last win last May but he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) nine days ago; has another career-low mark today and is not ruled out. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Second in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 4lb lower; three wins this year, the latest a runaway success at Brighton last month, but his progress has stalled on his last two starts; needs to raise his game again. |
10/1 |
|
19th 16 (7) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Can miss the break and is usually ridden from off the pace; back-to-back wins over the extended 5f at Brighton this summer, the latter by a wide margin under Jude Fernandes this month; below-form third turned out under a penalty at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) four days later and another 4lb higher now. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 5lb |
Can miss the break and is usually ridden from off the pace; won a Brighton handicap (5.3f) by a wide margin on Tuesday for Jude Fernandes; that made it three wins from his last four starts and he is a leading player under his penalty. |

8th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won his novice on heavy going last October (5f); placed in three of his four starts this year, most recently behind Emporess over C&D last week; each-way shout again. |
12/1 |
|
3 (10) |
1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Heavy-ground winner as a 2yo; placed twice (5f/7f, good/good to firm) in the spring and faced a stiffer task in Class 3 since; fresh contender who could go well back down in trip/grade. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Good start for new stable when third of nine at Kempton (1m) in May; ready win at Ffos Las the following month (1m, soft) and although she was only midfield at Kempton five weeks ago, she could resume her progress back on turf; rain would help. |
4/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
11th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Finished a close third of nine on her stable/handicap debut over C&D in May and got off the mark at Ffos Las (1m, soft) the following month; seems to be progressing and respected off 3lb higher. |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Got off the mark when landing a classified at Leicester (5f, good) in June; although she has gone close in handicaps on several occasions, she has not been able to land such a contest and doesn't therefore appeal for win purposes. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who's barely put a foot wrong since the blinkers went on; has gone close a couple of times over C&D in the past and is one for the shortlist under experienced 7lb claimer Donagh Murphy. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 4 (7) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has a record of 2102 since wearing blinkers, the success in Leicester classified contest (maiden previously); just over 1l behind Dottie Diamond there last Tuesday and now gets a 5lb pull with that opponent, who admittedly is open to further improvement; important contender. |

Verdict
Although THINK OF A NAME failed to do himself justice on Tapeta last time out he had looked to have more to come in his sole turf outing, at Newbury in July, and has at least shown he can handle a slowish surface. Rory Rocket did well on his Brighton debut and both he and stablemate Dannick, who ran better than the result suggests at Sandown, are possible alternatives, along with William Haggas’s Bintshuaa and newcomer Mini Mac for whom a market move would be significant.[Emily Weber]
