29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
All ten wins at 5f; last scored just over a year ago on good to firm but he's got plenty of form on a softer surface and ran well when runner-up in Epsom's "Dash" in June; also performed with credit at Glorious Goodwood and could be the type to bounce back from a lesser effort at Pontefract a fortnight ago; having just his second outing here since winning a C&D novice back in 2021. |
5/1 |

6th 6 (8) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Twice went close in June (5f, good to soft) and he ran well once more when close seventh of 23 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last time; could be in the shake-up. |
7/1 |

8st 8lb |
Two no-shows at Goodwood were at this meeting in 2023, including this race; however, provided the track doesn't pose any problems, he could be interesting after strong finishes in the Dash at Epsom and last time at Chester where a slow start was the last thing he needed; he should be coming home to some effect. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Smart in his prime and a multiple winner over the years but became disappointing after last season's winning reappearance and was last of 20 when back in action at York in May; needs to turn things around. |

Tremendous stable servant over the years with 17 wins; understandably not the force of old but won on 2025 reappearance (off 6lb higher) and has a strong York record (6-18). |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Poorly drawn and well beaten on seasonal reappearance here (6f) in April, but much more competitive when third at Carlisle (5f, good; 9-2) 16 days ago; bypassed an option at Catterick on Saturday (unsuitable ground) in favour of this; rain - three wins on soft - would aid his cause. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winner, mainly over 6f, the latest when 2lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) in April; went close when on this mark in successive starts last month, before a below-par effort in a big-field York sprint latest; player if he can bounce back. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

C&D winner; runner-up on his last two starts but this is more competitive and more minor money may be his best hope. |
10/1 |

2nd 1 (6) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |

Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two C&D wins on soft and good ground; below best in the autumn and has needed both runs in 2026 but he's run two of his best races for Paul Mulrennan (1-3 on him) who is back up today; on a handy mark and a revival could be imminent. |
7/1 |

5th 8 (3) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Shaped as if in need of comeback run at Nottingham (5f, good; sixth of eight) in April; has some decent C&D form to his name and is 10lb lower (and claimer ridden) than when seeing off Our Absent Friends here in August 2024; foolish to discount hastily. |
10/1 |

6th 5 (2) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
More miss than hit in 2025 but back on a good mark as a result and a record of two wins and two seconds from his five outings over this C&D means a revival can't be ruled out back from four months off. |

29th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Placed in Group races at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood as a 2yo; only win since came in Dubai (6f, good; stable debut) in January 2024; he's been in Bahrain this winter, only running to form once; on a reduced mark back in Britain and William Buick booked so can't be discounted, for all he isn't a solid option. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who won on stable debut at Meydan in January; unplaced all five outings since but he was far from disgraced considering meeting trouble when seventh to Vintage Clarets at Catterick last week; that run suggested he's fine on soft ground and he has possibilities from a falling mark. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off 6lb higher; back to winning ways when seeing off ten rivals at Ayr (5f, good to firm; made all) 18 days ago; this is a higher grade but the horse he beat last time ran well at Goodwood on Tuesday; not ruled out. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (4) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won off an 11lb mark at Musselburgh last August (5f, good); hasn't run as well since and below-par over same C&D last time (good); dropped another 3lb so no surprise if he were to go well. |
7/1 |

Gained last season's win over C&D (good); slightly disappointing in first-time blinkers (retained) on AW a week ago but now 2lb lower than when fourth of 17 behind Right And Exact at Thirsk (5f, good) two starts ago. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Soft-ground C&D winner in 2024; finished down the field in the Silver Cup at Ripon (6f, good) 11 days ago but he ran well at Thirsk (5f, good) the time before and should be happier back at 5f; others preferred, however. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
5f win here off 2lb higher in May; quiet afterwards until reviving with a second of six at Thirsk last week; has a C&D win on his record but rarely seen over 6f in recent times. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Recorded his fifth turf win when scoring at Ripon (5f, good) in May but he's struggled since and has failed to beat a rival in his last three starts; now 3lb lower than for his last success but he needs a big turnaround. |
16/1 |
