7th 7 (12) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Seriously progressive this season in 1m handicaps, including a near miss in the Lincoln (good to soft; won on soft) and victory in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (good to firm); dispelled any doubts about his Group-race credentials when emerging from last in a steadily run race to push Lake Forest to a neck in the 7f Lennox at Glorious Goodwood (good); that effort deserves an upgrade, so he's in the mix. |

2nd 6 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive handicapper who landed the Hunt Cup from favourable draw at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) most recently; faces a stiffer task on these terms but possibly hasn't reached his ceiling yet and a strike-rate of 5-6 over 7f bodes well. |

1st 28 (33) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Failed to fire in French Listed race last time; broadly progressive in handicaps and went close in the Lincoln when bidding for a five-timer (ran creditably in Spring Cup next time); however, chance partly depends on the weather, as he's ideally suited by ground softer than good. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Has gained both handicap wins off a mark of 90, including when beating Aalto over C&D (good to firm) latest start; could go well but needs a career-best performance to defy a penalty; 1lb badly in. |
16/1 |
|
1st 6 (9) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Promising stable debut in the race won by Superposition last month but he hasn't built on it in either start since; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend; others look stronger. |
33/1 |
|
8th 5 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Made it two wins in a row when scoring off this mark on handicap debut on the other Newmarket course (7f, good to firm) last May; however, has to produce more than he's managed on his two runs this term; visor goes on. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Still a maiden but he has performed encouragingly in two runs, albeit both on Lingfield AW in December, since having wind surgery; returns to turf for this reappearance. |
10/1 |
|
6th 11 (4) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Still a maiden after 15 starts but he's well treated on his peak form and was best of the rest behind Harryella over C&D 13 days off; has a big swing in the weights with his old rival and could be dangerous if he can back that up. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 4 (10) |
26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
14-race maiden who has gone backwards since May, notably so the last twice, and can't be recommended at present; wore a visor latest start, which is ditched for this AW debut. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
11st 0lb
|
Won 1m AW maiden in March but he struggled in last two Flat runs and was only fourth of six on hurdling debut over C&D (25-1) in August; finished 11l behind Galactique in that race and has work to do to turn the tables with that rival. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
1m AW winner for Ralph Beckett in March, after which he was well held in a novice; finished last in a 1m AW handicap on debut for this yard and hard to be confident after that. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Enters calculations on the form of his good Nottingham fourth but he was tried in cheekpieces when last of 11 in 7.5f Lingfield handicap three weeks ago; blinkers are reached for now. |

11th 11 (1) |
31st May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Son of Havana Grey took a step forward on his first go in handicaps when fourth of ten at Nottingham (1m) three weeks ago, faring best of those who raced up with the strong pace; he needs considering off a 2lb lower mark with cheekpieces added. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins since cheekpieces were added last autumn and her last success was at Carlisle (7f, soft) in June; didn't shine at Doncaster (good to firm) last time but that was over 1m and she still looks on a workable mark; dangerous back in trip. |
8/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who has form figures of 12531 since wearing cheekpieces, most recently seeing off nine rivals at Carlisle (7f) in June; has a likeable profile for this grade but the wins have been achieved on good to soft/soft and she needs to prove she's as effective on today's likely much faster ground. |
7/2 |

1st 9 (10) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Low-mileage 5yo who has form figures of 1253 since wearing cheekpieces, most recently third in big field at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) on seasonal debut; solid claims in the retained headgear. |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
The form of his 5f win at Wolverhampton in May has been franked since; a 5lb higher mark should be in range and the booking of Billy Loughnane suggests he will be ready to go after 81 days off. |

1st 5 (3) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Placed in two 6f 0-50 classified events here in March; slowly away last time, however, and won't be able to get away with that back at 5f. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D win for Jamie Osborne last April; slow start for current stable but he returned to form after a four-month break when second in a similar C&D event two weeks ago; solid claims if in the same form this time. |
