17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Good fifth in this race last year but was in a progressive vein of form at the time; some inconsistency has crept in and he finished last (admittedly lost a shoe) in the Spring Cup at Newbury most recently, failing to back up the form of his narrow success in the Lincoln on reappearance. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Goes well in a big field over a straight 1m; beaten a neck in this race last year (good ground) and made a winning return in the Lincoln at Doncaster (good to soft; beat Rogue Diplomat a nose) three weeks ago; should be in the thick of things again off a 4lb higher mark. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Close fifth in the Royal Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) last June and close third next time, again at Ascot (1m, good to firm); has shown promise on soft ground; not at the top of his game on his final two outings last term but has an each-way shout if back to his best on this reappearance. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Can front-run; sole win from 16 starts came in a maiden at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in September but he did step forward from his return when fourth in first-time cheekpieces over C&D 22 days ago; headgear is retained. |
10/1 |

4th 10 (6) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win from 15 starts came in a maiden at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in September but he's mostly struggled since and failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m, AW) last time on his first start for 112 days; now drops to 7f with cheekpieces applied on this return to turf. |

9th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

Got off the mark at Chelmsford (1m) in September but he's been off since turning in a poor sixth there in December; more is required despite a slipping mark. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Five-time turf winner who matched that tally on the AW when landing Kempton handicap (1m) in April; never a threat over that C&D last Thursday and it's been a while since he won off a mark this high. |
6/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in April and he went close on Polytrack and turf in his next two starts; didn't really fire at Newmarket (1m, good) last time but he still looks on a workable mark and has claims if he can get back near best. |
13/2 |

6th 2 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
8yo who has been in fine form this spring, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) last month then going close at Lingfield (1m, AW) and Nottingham (1m, good); there's every chance he'll be bang there once more. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won first time out twice in the past, which is a positive back from seven months off, although he's getting on now; a long time since he was seen regularly on turf and doesn't run at shy of 1m often, meaning others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Had an AW double (one here) over about 1m last summer but his latest two outings for his new yard have been moderate; another furlong would have been preferable, even if leaving those efforts behind. |

9st 10lb |
Won five times in Britain, latest in August; shaped well a couple of times on the AW for this stable but didn't beat a rival home the last twice on turf, slowly away both times; down 3lb. |

29th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |

Won five times when trained in Britain by Philip McBride; all those wins came on ground with good in the description; slowly away and always behind at the Curragh on latest; new headgear. |

28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 0f 0y |

Won five when trained in Britain by Philip McBride; all those wins came on ground with good in the description so conditions have to be a concern here (0-5 on soft); tongue tie goes on. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Five-time AW winner who was getting off the mark on turf at the 16th attempt when successful at Nottingham (6f, good) eight days ago; however, he was well beaten over this C&D (soft) yesterday. |
4/1 |

10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Five-time AW winner who belatedly opened his account on turf when coming from off the pace to win at Nottingham (6f, good) a week ago; has form on ground slower than good and has to be respected under a 4lb penalty. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Back off the same mark as when successful at Haydock (1m6f, good to soft) last September; Flat form since has been patchy but still one for the shortlist, especially if the ground stays on the soft side. |

11th 4 (11) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Achieved little twice over hurdles before his third of five from the front over C&D two months ago when last seen; that was comfortably his best show on AW but he needs to find extra. |

3rd 1 (3) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Achieved little over hurdles the last twice; four-time winner on Flat turf but is less solid on AW form and doesn't seem set to defy top weight. |

9st 8lb |
1lb lower than when scoring in an amateur riders' event at Goodwood (1m, good) in June, but hard to win with these days and latest close third of six came in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta); look elsewhere. |

Multiple winner in his young days including over C&D, but has only managed to win two of his last 31 starts, one of which was on Jersey; may find a couple too strong. |
