22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Acts on good to soft but soft would be a worry; tricky to settle and is held up in rear; won the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f; 10lb higher today) last October and he's looked just as good on most starts since, without winning but late traffic woes seemingly prevented him from going close last time; without his usual jockey Billy Loughnane today but he was a close second last term under Clifford Lee; probably involved if he can get the breaks. |

Tricky to settle and is held up in rear; won the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, good to firm; 9lb higher today) last October and had some very solid AW form over 1m2f-2m this year; back to near his best when eighth of 20 at Royal Ascot (2m4f) but he needs to hit a new high if he's to win this. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
10-34 on AW but latest well-held fifth on good to firm at Sandown took his turf record to a much less impressive 2-20; going softer than good arguably suits him slightly better but still hard to be confident. |
25/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has a good 10-34 record on AW but his turf strike-rate is only 2-19; has a lower mark in this sphere but off since finishing last of six at Wolverhampton in March and a watching brief is the percentage call. |
25/1 |

6th 3 (5) |

Record of 10-33 on AW features six wins at Wolverhampton, including in this race (off just 1lb lower) last year; close fourth at Lingfield for an encouraging start to his 2026 campaign; fighting chance. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |

C&D winner in July and good runner-up efforts here the last twice, going down only narrowly latterly; should go well again. |

27th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

Three wins include one here; had lost his way but back on track behind an improver here last week (9.4f); thereabouts if in the same form again. |

2nd 3 (5) |
21st Sep 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Has lost the plot since winning over C&D in high summer, including back on Tapeta last time; has it all to prove now and is some way down the pecking order. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Reacted well to blinkers when winning over 1m at Kempton in August; last of 14 over that same C&D at the beginning of this month but ran better when seventh of 14 over 1m3f there on Wednesday, albeit carrying no win threat; turns out again quickly. |

Contrasting performances at this venue (1m) since wearing blinkers, winning in August but finishing last of 14 this month; goes into unknown territory over 1m3f and it's not clear what to expect from him. |

16th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Well suited by this C&D but seems to have lost her way since last summer's turf win and was particularly disappointing on her latest outing 16 days ago; needs a good boost from the first-time blinkers. |
16/1 |

10th 3 (7) |
31st Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Turf winner who has bagged four wins at this venue; returns following a two-month break (has gone well fresh) but he's more a place prospect than a win-only one. |
20/1 |
|
2 (5) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Returned to form with 8.6f AW win in March and comes here after two good efforts over 1m on turf; drops in grade here and should be fine over this extended 7f; might be the answer. |
7/2 |
|
8 (6) |
18th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner who returned to form when scoring at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March; record of 1-18 on turf but he went close at Chepstow (1m, good) last month and is a big player if he can back that up off unchanged mark. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Improved with each of his three runs in novice/maiden company but never involved on his handicap and AW debut over 8.7f here three weeks ago; the step up in trip may help but hard to be confident after last time. |
20/1 |
|
7th 8 (3) |
27th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
He has improved with each of his three runs in novice/maiden company, finishing third of six at Ripon (1m, good) last month; may do better handicapping on AW and the betting should be revealing. |

27th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |

Got off the mark in a Catterick novice for George Scott and a solid third in a Goodwood handicap final start for him; races off the same mark today for a new yard; is ground-versatile and the market should help. |

3rd 2 (6) |
8th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 4yo; gelded and wearing first-time blinkers, back with a bang to make all in a novice at Catterick in April; faded to a 19l defeat in Chester handicap (again 7f on good; unraced on softer) four weeks later, however, so others look more solid options. |

Maiden under both codes has been running well enough in defeat lately but he has run poorly both starts at this course so questions in that respect. |

5th 3 |
23rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 150y |
11st 10lb |
0-5 over hurdles and his two runs in handicaps when last seen in this sphere in April/May were not encouraging; some positives in his Flat form this year, but his 27l defeat at Tramore last time was not one of them. |

Maiden has finished in the first three in five of his nine Flat starts; not beaten that far in a Naas handicap latest (1m3f, good) when a shade keen early; eased 1lb and now wears a hood and tongue tie; could go well if settling better. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not at best when well-held third at Market Rasen this month but won off 2lb lower at Hexham (1m7f, good) in the spring and is also suited by this track; seems versatile regarding ground; no surprise if he features. |
100/30 |

3rd 4 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Now in his fourth stable, for which he won a 2m handicap chase at Hexham in June; beaten 8l next time at Cartmel and he has form there; mark just okay but couldn't rule out as this isn't a strong race. |
7/2 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |

Ended a losing run for his new yard in 2m handicap chase at Hexham in June and backed it up with a solid third of seven at Cartmel (2m1f) 26 days ago; in the mix again. |
