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. |

25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Record of 5-10 for Harry Charlton and his last win was in a conditions event at Kempton (6f, AW) in October; ran without his declared tongue-tie when fourth on stable debut at Southwell in January but he finished down the field in another Class 2 handicap at Newcastle two weeks later; conditions should be fine on this return to turf but he needs to step up again after another break. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual fast-ground winner (1m/7f) for Tom Clover, including on his debut at this track in April 2024; shaped quite well at Kempton (6f, AW) in December but failed to build on that next time and has since left Mick Appleby; has bit to prove after six months off but he's had wind surgery and needs watching in market on stable debut. |

6th 6 (9) |
18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Dual turf winner for Tom Clover (7f/1m) last year, but seems to have lost his way including on stable debut at York (1m, good; first-time hood) last month; new yard may find the key to him at some stage and he is a half-brother to an AW winner; worth a market check. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Only 1-12 for current yard but gained the success off 7lb higher in a division of this contest on reappearance last year (good ground); great chance assuming he starts this season in similar form. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
He's 6lb lower than when winning over C&D (good) in March in a hood, which goes back on today; however, he's gone off the boil more recently and needs to produce more than he's managed on his last few starts. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Two wins on turf last season for Mark Usher (5f/6f) and he's continued to improve for his new yard, winning two in a row on AW earlier this year (5f); not at his best when seventh of 15 back on grass in a recent Listed race at Naas (5f, good) but shaped as though this return to 6f could be a positive; returns to a handicap and remains one to be interested in. |

27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
British raider arrives in terrific form having won back-to-back 5f AW handicaps at Newcastle off 92 and Southwell off 99; effective on good ground; probably needs to improve again on first run in Listed company, but can't be discounted. |
13/2 |

1st 7 (8) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Progressive sprinter for Mark Usher; down the field in the Ayr Gold Cup on his stable debut last September but he was back on the up with a comfortable Newcastle success six weeks ago (5f; ridden by Tom Marquand); although visually impressive (good Topspeed figure too), the form has taken some knocks and he will need another career best if he is to defy a 7lb rise. |

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 |
10st 2lb |
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. |

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. |
33/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner who could only beat one home in this race when it was staged as a Class 2 last year; managed a handful of creditable efforts subsequently but it's hard to ignore his last win came back in June 2023 (7f Group 3); returns on reduced mark. |
20/1 |

18 (8) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
He didn't get much luck last time at Newbury (7f, good to soft) off this much reduced mark; the type who could go well with Oliver Carmichael taking off 7lb, but confidence would be greater on faster ground. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Took a step back in the right direction with his close sixth at Haydock on latest start and he's back in the visor in which his last five wins have come, including two last season (7f, good to firm); entitled to respect. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Came good at Goodwood last August (7f, good to firm), running on strongly to bag a Class 2 handicap; faced a stiff task in a Thirsk conditions event on his reappearance two weeks ago; opposable with his usual visor remaining absent. |
16/1 |

7th 1 (4) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Useful sort who landed fast-ground handicap wins over C&D and at Goodwood last year; however, he has plenty to find on these terms and failed to beat a rival on his reappearance in 2024 and 2025. |
