2nd 6 (4) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Won 5f handicaps at Haydock (good) and Hamilton (soft) on his first two runs for Ed Bethell last September; beaten favourite in both starts this year, latterly at York six weeks ago which is a strong piece of form; no obvious reason why he won't handle AW and he is one to take seriously. |

3rd 7 (11) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Very lightly raced, ex-Godolphin 4yo; won on stable debut at Haydock (5f, good) last September and followed up later that month (5f, soft); reappeared with close third to Air Force One at Beverley (5f, good to soft) four weeks ago and this unexposed sort could still have plenty more to offer. |

3rd 1 (3) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Purchased for 60,000gns from Charlie Appleby last July and looked very useful when landing 5f handicaps at Haydock (good) and Hamilton (soft) for Ed Bethell in the autumn; only had five career starts so it'll be a surprise if there isn't more to come this year; leading claims with the stable among the winners. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Four wins at 6f for previous yard but he was far from disgraced when seventh of 28 in 7f Victoria Cup here (good; first-time cheekpieces) in May; drawn on the wrong side when he finished last at the Royal meeting but he's dropped to a handy mark and shouldn't be discounted on this return to 6f. |

28th 26 (7) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time 6f winner who ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) in the Victoria Cup over C&D most recently, albeit taking record for current yard to 0-5 and failing to improve for a return to 7f. |
33/1 |

7th 17 (14) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned mostly over 6f, winning four times for previous yard; 2-5 on grass; mixed results on AW for new stable; ran respectably in sole 7f attempt but chance of landing this hot handicap partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two 6f wins last year and registered a third when coming out on top in a good tussle at Yarmouth (good to firm) in late May; up to this grade and caught a little wide when last of seven at Salisbury ten days ago, however. |
9/1 |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Narrowly beat a subsequent scorer (pair clear) at Yarmouth last time, taking his record over 6f to 3-6; may be capable of further progress kept to this distance; respected. |

28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Unexposed 3yo who ended three-race 2yo campaign for John Ryan with small-field Nottingham novice win (5f, soft) in November; encounters much faster ground and has fitness to prove on stable/handicap debut. |

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. |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

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. |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
She didn't run badly on her seasonal/handicap debut at Redcar in May but that hasn't been a springboard to better things; still relatively early days for her and she shaped with promise in one previous AW start. |
14/1 |

8 (5) |
8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
She didn't run badly on her seasonal/handicap debut at Redcar in May but that has been followed by two disappointing efforts; dropping down the weights but others look more appealing. |
12/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Gave it away at the stalls last time having shown a bit of promise on her handicap debut previously; lightly raced for a yard among the winners and should be suited by the extra furlong, so there are positives. |

Front-runner; successful at Ripon in June (5f, soft) but unable to deal with a penalty in three runs since; well drawn for this nursery/AW debut; not discounted. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Having his 15th start of the year already; still 5lb above his last winning mark and although he has won over 1m on the AW, 7f may suit him better. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Gained his fifth success when pulling 4l clear at Lingfield (7f, good) last month and he's finished third in both starts since, including over 1m at Kempton 15 days ago; each-way chance if seeing out this slightly longer trip. |

C&D winner; arrives in form, winning easily over 7f at Lingfield (good ground); solid third at Brighton 12 days ago and returning to 1m is no issue; this is a step up in class though. |

Versatile sort who scored over 5f/6f (turf/AW) last term and ran well over 7f at Meydan in February; however, the assessor has not cut him much slack and he returned from a break with a laboured effort at Chester (first run since gelded) three weeks ago; down the list. |
