1st 2 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has run a number of good in defeat races this season, including fourth over C&D last month; went down only to a progressive 3yo at Newbury (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago and the third and fourth have franked that form; bold show likely. |

Exposed four-time winner; has run a number of good races this season and Doncaster last time was one of those, as he did well to finish so close after missing the break; not without hope. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice on turf in the summer of 2023 but better known for his AW exploits since; well beaten at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) on last month's return to grass; others are safer. |
20/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
A regular on the AW here (three wins) who's much higher in the weights than when last seen frequently on turf; generally consistent but whether he's up to this mark on grass is the leading question, and Quamby looks his trainer's best chance. |
25/1 |

13th 14 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time winner over 1m/1m2f here and just 1lb higher than when beating a dual subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in January, but he has the outside stall and will require some luck given his come-from-behind style. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Some good efforts over 5f this year but he has met his match in Group races won by Rumstar, Cover Up and American Affair on his last three starts and has it to prove in this company. |
66/1 |
|
7th 6 (8) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
6yo who has been campaigned over further for the majority of his career but he's been a progressive sprinter this season, finishing third in a Group 3 at Sandown (5f, good) on July 4 then runner-up in Group 2 at the Curragh (5f, good to firm) last time; however, this tougher race demands more. |
20/1 |

2nd 5 (2) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
British challenger a five-time handicap winner, most recently scoring off 92 at York in May; creditable first run in stakes company in a Sandown Group 3 last time when a 1.25l third behind the 110-rated Rumstar; that's solid form and Colin Keane keeps the faith; place chance. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

Hard to fault on the score of consistency this year but it's nearly two years since his last success and others appeal as likelier winners. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Both wins came over C&D in 2023, but losing run now up to 17 despite a slipping mark; beaten only 3l into fifth of 13 at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) eight days ago and could play a part if building on that in the returning cheekpieces. |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Both wins over 7f at Wolverhampton; has form at 1m, too, but he hasn't excelled himself in two C&D starts and others have stronger claims. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win since summer 2024 and nothing like the force of old but placed in this grade on last three appearances; drops back in trip after looking stretched by 1m4f last time; ought to be right in the thick of things. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Unraced beyond an extended 1m on the AW, but neck defeats at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) and at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) in her last two starts suggest this trip should be within range on a sharp track; high on list. |

Won over 1m6f at Redcar in August but hasn't given himself a chance in two subsequent races after pulling hard, with and without the hood; risky. |

29th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |

9st 6lb |
She's thrived since joining this yard and made it 4-7 for the stable when making all in a Listed race at Pontefract (1m, good) three weeks ago; today's company demands further improvement but she might still have more to offer and could make another bold bid. |
16/1 |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |

6-19, her latest success when making all to win a handicap at Ascot (1m, good) in May, but she finished behind three of these in the Kensington Palace back there (1m, good to firm) last month; more needed. |
6/1 |

Yet another success story for the James Owen yard, with her all-the-way defeat of Song N Dance and Alobayyah over C&D (good) last month her third win in just five starts for the stable; enjoyed the run of things from the front on that occasion but further progress isn't discounted. |

Two wins in Germany; sixth is the best he's managed in seven starts since coming to Britain but he did catch the eye a bit on his penultimate outing and is worth a betting check back from a three-month break. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
10-50 turf; made all, clinging on, at Redcar (1m2f, good; 20-1) ten days ago; 3lb higher, but with 3lb claimer Conor Whiteley taking over in the saddle; is better known as a miler, so stamina could be the thorny issue, especially if more rain arrives. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |

Multiple winner over 1m-1m2f; versatile regarding going; 12lb lower than his most recent win at Ripon 13 months ago; plenty to prove based on five of his six starts this season. |
