1st 5 (4) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Produced a very smart handicap performance at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) on Oaks day, registering an RPR of 121 and taking record to 4-8; leading contender provided that form is backed up returned to Listed level. |

1st 3 (16) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Has run respectably on soft; hooded on last two starts, with a back-to-form second of six when stepped up to 1m2f for C&D handicap (good) on 2026 reappearance; raised 5lb since and probably not straightforward but that was a promising effort here from out the back (ran on well with too much to do) and he has to be in serious calculations. |
7/2 |

2nd 1 (7) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Made it three wins from his first four starts when scoring on handicap debut at Hamilton (8.3f, good) last July; his progress stalled in two Listed races subsequently but this lightly raced 4yo has been gelded since and the return to better ground could be a positive, along with the step up in trip; retains potential for a top trainer who won this in 2018 and 2019; respected. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Consistent form (1m, good to firm) this season, winning a maiden then creditable fourth in a couple handicaps; gives impression this return to 7f is worth exploring; not ruled out. |

4th 5 (1) |
11th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Kept to 1m this season; won a Yarmouth maiden and then ran creditably in a Newbury handicap without looking ahead of his mark; may improve again but needs to. |
10/1 |

4 (9) |
27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Both starts this season over 1m, winning Yarmouth maiden then running creditably in Newbury handicap; gives the impression this drop back to 7f won't be an issue; remains unexposed. |

25th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Solid in three handicaps since winning his maiden at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) and despite being beaten about 7l last time the headline-grabbing winner took up over six of them; looks likely to make his presence felt. |
5/2 |
|
3 (2) |
6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 212y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Competitive in two handicaps since winning his maiden at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) and his Hamilton conqueror last time was unexposed; has a race in him off this mark and he's proven on soft ground. |
9/2 |
|
5 (2) |
12th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Only 3l away in Newbury's always-strong London Gold Cup before coming from off the pace to win a Sandown maiden by 3l (1m2f, good to firm); strong in the betting for a Racing League handicap at Yarmouth where the ground was soft and he endured a wide trip; remains of interest. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Joint-favourite with Almeraq in Salisbury Listed race last time but underperformed; bottom of this pack on ratings and accordingly faces a much stiffer assignment than when winning a handicap at this meeting last year; blinkers added. |
50/1 |
|
4th 5 (8) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Made good progress over 6f last season; better than ever with his second at Leicester four weeks ago (6f, good to firm); still has more to give but this looks deep for a Listed contest. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (10) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won four times during a progressive campaign last year but he's come up short in Listed/Group 3 events this spring; seems ideally suited by fast ground but he's still 4lb higher than for his last win and has some work to do back in a handicap. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Progressive at 7f in 2025 and he returned from ten months off to run out an easy winner of a Class 3 handicap over C&D (2-2 at Newcastle) in March; up 7lb but foolish to think he's not up to the task; stable won this in 2024. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (14) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 7f course maiden last January and went on to show useful form in turf handicaps over that trip in the spring; not seen for ten months (gelded) but should have more to offer as a lightly raced sort from a top stable; his strong-travelling, front-running style over 7f suggests he should have the speed for 6f (previous attempt came when green on debut); very interesting contender. |
7/2 |
|
4th 6 (16) |
24th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Developing into a useful 7f colt; justified favouritism at Ascot (good to firm) most recently, taking his record when making the running to 3-3; went very close over C&D the time before; not sure to get his own way in this big field but otherwise an improving sort who warrants respect. |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Improved on each of first four starts but floundered on heavy at Glorious Goodwood and seemed to find 1m2f too far last time; back in trip with blinkers replacing cheekpieces; no surprise to see him bounce back. |
4/1 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Best to forgive his Glorious Goodwood effort on rain-softened ground; won at Sandown (1m, good) on handicap debut the time before and this well-bred colt may still have more to offer; likely to stay this new trip; remains of interest. |
7/2 |

14 (6) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
600,000gns yearling with an excellent pedigree; progressive RPRs in his three novice runs and he made his breakthrough when scoring on handicap debut at Sandown (1m, good) in May; 5lb higher on this step up in grade but he produced a strong finish from off the pace last time and is open to more progress; respected with cheekpieces added. |

23rd Jul 2025 Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't been advertising any need for a step up beyond 1m2f in her most recent outings, but her mark is finally more in line with the RPRs she's been consistently running to this term; not dismissed out of hand. |
16/1 |

14 (14) |
7th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Six-race maiden who has finished behind Hill O Rue twice since handicapping and seems unlikely to reverse placings with that improving rival; however, could go well off her reduced mark. |

24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Showed little in her five races for Darryll Holland, the last two of which were handicaps in the spring; has tried cheekpieces and blinkers (latest start) once each, and now it's a visor for new connections; her new trainer has turned a fair few around before, mind you. |

14th May 2025 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Showed little in three starts last year (7f/1m) and she failed to beat a rival home on her handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m, good) last month; first-time blinkers need to make the difference now stepping up in trip. |

28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Gambled on when just failing to make winning handicap debut (1m, AW) in February; prominent in the market all starts since although it took a trip to Jersey (2m; won easily) on penultimate run to get off the mark; wore cheekpieces for the third time when he proved underwhelming in a Yarrmouth classified (11.5f, pulled hard) six weeks ago; now goes back up in trip with no headgear. |

Gambled on when just failing to make a winning handicap debut in February and he's been prominent in the market all starts since, including when third of 13 in his first classified at Windsor (1m3.5f, good to firm) last month; it took a trip to Jersey (2m; won easily) to get him off the mark 19 days ago but he's respected. |

A useful 1m5f Flat winner for Sir Mark Prescott last year; only fair form at best in four hurdle outings for this yard since, including when well-held sixth on Stratford handicap debut in that sphere four weeks ago; returns to the Flat with something to prove; first-time cheekpieces go on. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |

A useful 1m5f Flat winner for Sir Mark Prescott; changed hands for 115,000gns and shaped well when runner-up in 2m Catterick juvenile hurdle in January; faced a stiff task in Haydock's Victor Ludorum last time and remains with potential now handicapping. |
9/2 |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
A fairly useful and three-time Flat scorer (at up to 1m6f) for Sir Mark Prescott in 2025; beat only one on his hurdling debut at Kempton but vastly improved when a clear second of nine in 2m Catterick juvenile 15 days ago; open to further progress but this demands plenty more. |

Largely in good form in cheekpieces for new stable this year and was an emphatic course winner (7.6f, good; previously ran well on good to soft) on latest outing 18 days ago; 6lb higher now but still taken very seriously. |

Sole win from 14 starts came in Jersey (1m, firm) last summer; four races for this yard, back to form when only just denied in 16-runner race at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) three days ago; hung left on that occasion and rider briefly stopped riding, but this 4yo has solid claims today. |
