10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Seen mostly at up to 1m4f, over which he delivered a telling late challenge on the other Newmarket track in May; while that looked encouraging for longer trips, his one attempt at 1m6f (on soft last July) and two at 2m (last two Northumberland Plates) saw him well beaten; that's not conclusive proof that he won't stay 1m6f but it leaves his stamina unproven. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Three wins at this track but he came 13th in this race last year; that was his only appearance over this long a trip and he was also below form when he had a crack at 1m6f, so he's unproven beyond 1m4f, over which he's contested his last nine starts; stamina is the big doubt. |
16/1 |

4th 7 (12) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Track regular who finished third in this race (good to soft) in 2024 and stayed on from the rear to be fourth in last year's edition; also won last season's Great Metropolitan over C&D (good) and got back in the winning groove when taking Newmarket handicap three weeks ago; latter success puts him on a career-high mark but he's unlikely to be far away. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
First two wins were at Newcastle (12.4f, AW) and last two have been over C&D (good to soft/good); his last success was on his stable debut last month and he backed that up with a front-running second at Pontefract (1m4f) last week; that was a four-runner race but he chased home a progressive stablemate who has scored again since; respected off same mark. |
11/4 |

2nd 4 (2) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time winner for Stuart Williams (1m4f, AW/good); made a winning debut for Liam Bailey when dictating matters in a five-runner handicap at Ripon last time (1m4f, good; cheekpieces back on); headgear retained; up 4lb; contender. |
7/2 |

1st 4 (2) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all in this race off 2lb higher on good to soft for Jedd O'Keeffe last year; drew a blank in six outings for Stuart Williams but latest 1m4f Doncaster third on good to firm was respectable; sold for 8,000gns since; could make another bold bid in this race. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Narrow C&D winner (Class 4; 12-1) in November and, broadly speaking, has acquitted himself respectably since; stamina was likely overstretched at Wolverhampton (1m4f) latest; it's interesting that Jack Callan (1-1) returns to the saddle from just 1lb above that winning mark. |
4/1 |

8th 3 (6) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
1m2f and 1m4f AW winner, including on Tapeta; backed up November's Newcastle success with a respectable third at Lingfield last month; was below that level at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) latest; drops 1lb and can be competitive if he acts at this track. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Thriving since the cheekpieces went on, scoring at Southwell (1m4f) in February and bettering that form when beaten 1l by Son Of Man over C&D 24 days ago; enjoys a 2lb weights pull now so he's a likely player. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Running well this year, winning at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) in February and going down by a neck in two starts over this C&D either side; up another 1lb, but another big effort is expected. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice in Britain for current yard since winning twice in France; however, beaten 21l at Leicester (1m2f, good) last month following five-month layoff and lacks the scope of his rivals. |
20/1 |

9th 11 (11) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won a 1m3f Class 5 handicap at Southwell in October and slightly better form when collared late over 1m2f at Lingfield in January; broke out of stalls and withdrawn at Kempton 11 days later (10-1 at the time); now returns to turf after a break but he's a dual winner in this sphere and is versatile ground-wise; possibilities. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

Won a 1m3f Class 5 handicap at Southwell in October and slightly better form when collared late over 1m2f at Lingfield 11 days ago; 1lb higher in a better race but current wellbeing will count for plenty here. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Stuck his neck in front in the final strides over C&D (good) on seasonal debut, ending a three-year losing spell; still well handicapped on peak form and commands respect under very promising young amateur Henry Callan, who has built up an impressive strike-rate. |

8th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |

No wins since 2023 and although he was running well when last seen, that was late last year; probably one to watch unless backed. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
He's 9lb lower than when third in this last year and he returned to form when going close over C&D early this month; has a modest strike-rate but he can be bang there if backing up that latest performance. |
10/1 |

2nd 12 (9) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Fine looker, and for all that he's an infrequent winner (2-35), was once rated in the 90s; placed in a Class 4 over C&D (from 10lb higher) last June but he's been steadily regressive since; safer options elsewhere. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Prevailed narrowly in cheekpieces at Musselburgh (1m, good) last time, registering a first win since 2024; back up 3lb but remains well treated on peak form, which includes a Ripon success; headgear removed; should remain competitive. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

Winless since November 2024 and tried in cheekpieces when a below-par sixth of 12 in 1m Redcar handicap last month; needs to bounce back with headgear retained. |

6th 5 (1) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Placed twice since dropped back to 1m last month, more recently when very close third (just behind The Sweet Escape) at Leicester (1m, good to firm) nine days ago; competes off same mark here; big player if new cheekpieces have any positive effect. |
