1st 7 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Threatening to win a good prize; unlucky second in last year's Cambridgeshire and finished third, best of the far-side runners, in the Royal Hunt Cup most recently; 1-1 at Sandown; big chance provided the cards drop right. |

3rd 27 (8) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Unraced on softer than good; record is 4-11 (AW/turf); good second in the 2025 Cambridgeshire (would likely have won but for traffic issues) and Newbury event (collared by Classic) in last two appearances; progressive, represents last year's winning yard and has a big prize in him; respected. |

2nd 10 (9) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Progressive most starts in 2025 and a strong finish took him to within a nose of victory against an all-the-way winner in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm) on final outing; raised 4lb after that big-race performance but should still be of major interest if tuned up for this return. |

26th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
0-11; lots of fair form, including at this venue, but her willingness to come home in front is questionable; hood removed for the first time since her debut. |

3rd 6 (4) |

led, ridden when faced challenges over 1f out, lost two places inside final furlong, kept on |

4th 7 (8) |
20th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Well-bred filly who is now 0-9 and looking exposed, but was runner-up in her only previous handicap and she beat all bar an unexposed favourite in a 1m novice last time; can be keen out in front and perhaps this belated return to 7f will work. |

9st 10lb |
0-9 but runner-up in four of his last five starts (three over C&D), going down by less than a length on four occasions; up another 1lb but a major player returned here. |

1st May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
String of solid efforts in Tapeta handicaps this year and he doesn't appear to do anything wrong; has been nudged up another 2lb, though, and will need to find a bit more for the switch from cheekpieces to blinkers, and from the AW to turf. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All his three wins were over 1m2f at Newcastle last October-December, easily on last occasion, but his creditable third there on latest outing suggests that the handicapper has caught up. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won three over C&D (Class 5) between October and December, rising 20lb in the weights; reportedly "ran flat" when only fifth of six (beaten over 12l) over C&D (Class 3) on New Year's Day; given a short break since, and this is marginally easier (a Class 4); chance. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 10lb |
Began her career in handicaps with a BHA mark of 60 and has improved in leaps and bounds since; seemed to excel herself when never-nearer sixth of 26 in Group 1 at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm; 40-1) last month; had run creditably over C&D the time before; big chance if repeating Ascot form. |
6/1 |

6th 17 (22) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Useful handicapper whose three wins have all come on the AW, most recently over 5f in January; faces a daunting task this time. |
