17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
A regular in notable handicaps, bagging three (over 1m) during his progressive period last term and proving resurgent when close second to Erzindjan at Newmarket (1m1f) latest start; first home in the unfavoured group in the Britannia at this meeting 12 months ago; looks set to go well. |
12/1 |

2nd 4 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
1m winner at Newmarket and York last summer but failed to shine on last two outings, when co-second favourite for the C&D Cambridgeshire on first occasion; only mid-division when 13-2 in the Spring Cup at Newbury two weeks ago but not beaten far and the draw looked a problem; not ruled out. |
8/1 |
|
11th 7 (4) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Below par on his last two 3yo starts but he'd previously won competitive 1m events at Newmarket and York (both good to firm) in the summer, and he did well to prevail at York after having to wait for a run; only 3lb higher here and he'll be a major player if ready to roll after six months off. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Won a three-runner maiden at Doncaster in May on second start; well beaten in the Group 2 Dante at York (good to firm) in May, with better form for minor honours at 1m2f (on softer than good) in his two starts since but this race requires a chunk of improvement. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Made debut in April and won at Doncaster (1m2f, good) on second start; returned from break with front-running Listed third at Deauville last month (1m2f, good to soft; unraced on softer) and he could still have more to offer after just four starts; player. |
7/4 |
|
10th 4 (10) |
15th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Didn't race last year having had an injury, and not entered in the Derby; second to subsequent Esher Cup winner on debut at Kempton (1m, AW) last month and easily won three-runner maiden at 2-13 at Doncaster (1m2f, good) 12 days ago; takes huge leap in grade today but this 425,000gns yearling, whose dam won a Group 2, could have lots more to offer; not ruled out each-way. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Had wind surgery in January; he's since had three runs this summer and something has clicked in a major way on last two occasions as he registered a ready win in four-runner race at Catterick and had no problem making all in a five-runner race at Newbury (again 1m4f on good to firm) six days ago; has a 5lb penalty and this is a vastly more competitive race, but never better. |
16/1 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has rather a mixed record (had wind surgery in January) but latest start was a ready win in four-runner race at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last month; back up 4lb but has to be considered. |

1m2f winner for previous yard and has form figures of 442 over hurdles for current stable; had wind surgery and layoff prior to possibly needing the run when returned to the Flat (33-1) last time; market support would augur well. |

Three wins for James Owen this year, the latest over 1m here (good to firm) 18 days ago; a 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Dual 7f winner this season; looked as good as ever when clear second to progressive rival at Sandown (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago but recent 4lb rise demands a bit more from him here. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins have been at 7f but has form over this far and it might yet end up being his best trip; due a 1lb rise after finding one too good at Yarmouth last time (7f); unlikely to be too far away. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Progressed very well last term, culminating in his close third in Group 2 Great Voltigeur here (1m4f, good to firm) in August, until not so good trying 1m6f on final outing; rallied when close second in 1m4f French Listed event on reappearance but needs to bounce back from a tame show in Newbury Group 3; tongue tied first time on this second attempt at 1m6f. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |

Progressed very well as 3yo last term, culminating in his close third in Group 2 Great Voltigeur at York (1m4f, good to firm) in August, until not so good trying 1m6f in Listed race on final outing; always close up and rallied when close second in 1m4f Listed event at Longchamp on reappearance; may well have more to give but it is needed in today's company. |
5/1 |
|
1 (8) |
3rd Oct 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won two novice events in the spring and a late surge took him to within a nose of victory in Listed race at Hamilton (1m3f, good; unraced on softer) in July; close third of seven in Group 2 Great Voltigeur at York (1m4f, good to firm) in August, coming from the back in something of a tactical race; 1m6f looks within reach and this highly progressive colt is top on form. |

Gosden 3yo who has shown improvement since switched to handicaps, winning at Yarmouth then good third over C&D; subsequently gelded; may do better still; one for the shortlist. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |

Clearly underestimated by the handicapper when showing a willing attitude at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in late April; he's in a lot deeper here and off a 7lb higher mark, so has to step up again; that's perfectly feasible, however. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Four wins from 11 starts; successful on comeback at Kempton (1m4f, AW; made all) in April and again ran well when second at Newmarket (1m4f, good) two weeks ago; should be in the thick of things once more. |
13/2 |

2nd 3 (2) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |

Normally reliable and gritty performer, as evidenced by his comeback win at Kempton (AW; made all) in April, so his major flop at Epsom (again 1m4f, good) came as quite the surprise three weeks later; maybe that track didn't suit and his previous body of work means he can easily be given another chance. |

9st 2lb |
Form figures of 121611 in his six handicaps, with 2m aiding the cause at Newbury (good to firm) when he made all in cheekpieces on last two outings; up another 5lb but no shock if he again proves very tough to pass. |
13/8 |

5th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |

Sent handicapping this term and has won three of those five starts, last time upped to 2m when making all to justify favouritism with first-time cheekpieces in a five-runner race over C&D (good to firm) 12 days ago; raised another 5lb but he's the only 3yo in this field and he's progressing. |

Up in trip to score on reappearance/handicap debut in June (Wolverhampton, 1m4f) and doubled his tally when winning at Chelmsford (1m5f, also AW) at the start of this month; beaten on turf over 1m6f (good) either side of that but first time was creditable effort and it was a much better race than this 19 days ago; cheekpieces go on and he should stay this far. |
