20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
All races over 7f until running a screamer in a close third of 28 (good to firm) in this race last year; ready winner of his next 6f start, on the AW last October; has had some trip and aids switches for new yard but looked back on a better path when a close, staying-on second in a 5f Carlisle Listed race (first-time cheekpieces replaced regular tongue-tie) last time; 3lb well in and has a big run in him back over C&D. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
5-10 at 6f/7f for Harry Charlton; unplaced all four outings since joining current stable, finishing in midfield in Victoria Cup at Ascot most recently; unproven at 5f; wears headgear for the first time; others appeal more. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Broadly progressive for previous yard but proved disappointing in this race last year, having raced freely; ran well in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot next time; not particularly solid on his 2026 form for new stable and it remains to be seen whether he settles returned to this C&D. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
In good form on turf prior to a quieter effort last time; tonight's easier 6f maybe isn't ideal and he needs to bounce back (likely to be dropped in as usual from the outside stall and ridden for luck). |
6/1 |

8th 3 (4) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kept to 6f since joining this yard and he scored on the July course (good to firm) last month; good efforts on his next three starts include a fine second in Class 2 Ascot handicap (Northcliff a head behind) under Toby Moore a fortnight ago; was 6lb out of the weights that day and effectively just 1lb higher this time; considered. |

Beat Havana Blue at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) and he has run well in defeat twice since; he is 6lb out of the weights in this higher grade and may prove vulnerable again. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
He's dropped to a very dangerous mark on last year's best form and is one to watch in the betting following an 82-day break, but he has struggled to get competitive on his three outings this season. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Won over C&D in March of 2025 off 11lb higher; 0-12 in the meantime and quiet so far this term. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
He's 9lb lower than when winning at Doncaster last March and may have needed his comeback run there this March, when mid-division; however, his form went the wrong way as last year developed and he needs to get back on track. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Disappointed in this race 12 months ago on stable debut; began 2026 with two impressive AW wins but not much to recommend him since April. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Began the season with two dominant 5f wins on AW; well short of his best on last three starts and there are risks attached, despite his favourable mark. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Began the season with two dominant 5f wins on AW; well short of his best on last two starts (6f, good and AW); returning to 5f won't hurt and the return of cheekpieces could perk him up; can't discount. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Best on good or quicker ground; has progressed as a 4yo, proving a strong finisher over the straight 1m here when winning the Kensington Palace (good to firm; just her second run at the distance) in June; ran flat when returned to 7f in July but this looks more her trip now; can go well. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Won on the other Newmarket course in May (7f, good) and bounced back from lesser run at Epsom to win the 23-runner Kensington Palace Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month; this progressive 4yo holds strong claims up 6lb. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
His last win was was in 2023 but that was a Group 3 event and he went close behind Where's Freddy over C&D (good to firm; 3-1 favourite) 13 days ago; on same mark here and he's a big player if he can repeat that form; visor added. |

2nd 1 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
On a three-year losing run and nothing like the force of old but his current mark reflects that and this is a good bit easier than the two handicaps he tackled in the spring; no surprise were this class dropper to go well with his yard among the winners. |
8/1 |

12th 29 (24) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Two-time Group winner over 7f but is on a near three-year losing spell and current mark reflects that he's not the force of old (admittedly showed bits of useful form in 2025); needs to step up on reappearance effort; failed to shine in the last two runnings of this contest. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
8yo who is 0-10 this year but he was a good third here (7f, soft) last month and also ran well when runner-up off this mark at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) last Wednesday; might not be far away. |
15/2 |

4th 7 (7) |
23rd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Placed at Haydock last time; form at Goodwood features a success off 3lb higher last term and sixth of 18 in this year's Golden Mile; the 8yo is attractively treated and can't be dismissed. |
