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. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who ended a long losing run with a dominant display over C&D (good) last month; struggled on his return visit three weeks ago but that was the Bunbury Cup and he remains well treated on his old form; respected on this big drop back in grade. |
6/1 |

12th 14 (8) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Has gradually come to hand for new stable and made all, unchallenged, over C&D (good) most recently; 3lb ahead of the assessor under a penalty but another easy lead isn't certain; back up two grades. |

22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
All three wins, and top five RPRs, achieved here; found just the favourite too strong following a gelding operation last time; major claims despite 4lb rise. |
4/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Gelded since last run; best at Kempton and has a record of 11142 here, most recently going very close off 5lb higher in March; attractively treated and enters calculations returned to his ideal location. |

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. |
4/1 |
|
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. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Recorded his sixth victory of the year with a career-best effort in 5.4f handicap at York 16 days ago; he's also a winner in the mud so must enter calculations once more. |
5/1 |
|
1 (7) |
7th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He has enjoyed a fine season, winning five handicaps, and he ran another sound race when fourth in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon three weeks ago; this intermediate trip should suit and he's versatile where the going is concerned; likely to run well but might find a few better treated. |
10/1 |
|
2 (17) |
16th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
He's enjoyed a fine year and although he's come unstuck on his last two starts, he did too much early at York and then raced up the middle in the Stewards' Cup; earlier Ascot win off just 2lb lower was a fine effort; first visit to Ripon but he has won on the undulations at Epsom; drawn against the rail and a big run would seem likely. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has won over 1m but recent efforts at 6f and after his C&D win he fared best of those held up when third last week; this could pan out more favourably for him. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Ended a long long losing run when coming from rear for a narrow success over C&D (good to firm) last week; that was a surprise at 18-1 but he's only 3lb higher under a penalty and two of his three wins have been at this track; respected. |
3/1 |
|
1st 7 (9) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
On a two-year losing spell and isn't totally solid on 2026 efforts but the latest is best forgiven (got no sort of run; second start for new yard); attractively treated on best form and is a course winner. |
