22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 87y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Her previous course visit resulted in a handicap win over the extended 1m4f on good ground (acts on good to soft) at the 2025 May meeting; campaigned at Group/Listed level since, running her best race when 2.75l second of four to Lazy Griff at Sandown (2m, good) last month; 3lb better off with Charlie Johnston's charge this time; Ralph Beckett has won this three times since 2021. |

2nd 5 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
4yo filly whose two wins came last spring in a Southwell maiden (1m4f, AW) and Chester handicap (1m4f, good); struggled on soft ground in a 1m6f Listed race at Musselburgh this April and although she ran well when Listed fourth over 1m3f at Baden-Baden (good to soft) four weeks ago, she faded and didn't look to be crying out for this far; has a bit to find. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Maiden and front-running handicap winner last spring, who found her one Group and two Listed assignments much harder afterwards but those were her best form; all those were at about 1m4f but her second from off the pace at Toulouse on final outing gave hope for this longer trip; improvement needed. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Prevailed in second-time hood at Taunton (2m, good) most recently, adding to his Flat win, and may have more to offer in the retained headgear; in deeper waters today but could go well. |

1st 11 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won a Goodwood maiden for Andrew Balding in June (1m6f, good to firm); improved on first hurdles run when neck second over C&D last time (heavy; hood tried); headgear retained; this faster is ground likely to suit; one with a chance. |
2/1 |

2nd 10 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Useful peak RPR of 94 on the Flat for Andrew Balding; ran to a fair level when last of three finishers on Exeter hurdle debut (heavy) eight weeks ago and should prove capable of better, particularly if a first-time hood helps him to settle better through the early stages than he did on that occasion. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Scored twice here (including over C&D); not disgraced with seventh of 14 in 1m2f York handicap last month; must enter calculations back here in this lesser company. |
9/2 |
|
7th 8 (13) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Made all in a big field at Chester (1m4f, good) in May and is just 1lb higher today but she hasn't come up to scratch subsequently and others arrive with more pressing claims. |
33/1 |

4th 1 (7) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Six visits here have yielded two wins and as many thirds; below her best over an extended 1m2f in last two races (also here) but she's back to Class 4 level in which she made all over C&D in May off only 2lb lower; considered, for all that an easy leads seems unlikely. |

3rd Oct 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
All starts this term in Class 4s; fairly consistent and he got over a blip on penultimate start when beaten 4l at Chester (12.5f, soft; stays this trip) three weeks ago; edging down the weights and drops in class. |
8/1 |

7th 6 (7) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Both wins were for the Gosden yard; no closer than 5l in three handicaps here since May (1m4f-2m) and needs to raise his game with blinkers switched for cheekpieces (they have done little for him previously). |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Won 11.6f and 1m6f (good to soft) handicaps last year for the Gosden yard; Flat reappearance fourth over C&D in May was respectable but two lesser displays (1m6f/1m4f) have followed; others have more pressing claims. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Six-race maiden on the Flat for Hugo Palmer; has shown promise when placed in both hurdles starts, latest when third of nine finishers at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month; looks sure to make his presence felt. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 10 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-6 on the Flat but displayed ability and there was also promise in last month's hurdle/stable debut at Taunton (2m, good), where he was runner-up to a useful (but sadly ill-fated) prospect; in good hands to progress and he could have a part to play. |
3/1 |
|
9 (4) |
10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Safely held when fifth in first two handicaps, both times over 1m4f on turf; however, last month's Newmarket run came after a break and he might fare better now back on Polytrack and with cheekpieces refitted. |

15th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All four wins (three on AW) have been at 7f but he ran with plenty of credit when fourth of ten at Kempton (1m4f, Polytrack) ten days ago; this trip may suit him even better and he makes the shortlist. |
4/1 |
|
6 (1) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All four wins have been at 7f but he finished well out wide when a close third at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) two weeks ago; looks worth another try at this trip and he's in the mix off an unchanged mark. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
All four wins have been over 7f for other yards; missed the break when favourite at Redcar (1m2f, good) 12 days ago, drops in grade on a career-low mark and may be worth another chance. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up twice in a row before filling the same position over C&D (soft) 11 days ago, behind Empirestateofmind; soundly beaten at Hamilton (1m1f, heavy) two days later but that may have come too soon; in the mix if bouncing back. |
9/2 |
|
5th 5 (9) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
In-form 4yo maiden whose turn may be near, having finished a good second in last three starts, latest when 1l behind Empirestateofmind at Ayr (1m, soft; clear of remainder) on Friday; gets a 4lb pull with that rival; solid chance. |
100/30 |

2nd 8 (10) |
18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
No wins in 15 but bang there in his last three races, at 1m1f and 1m2f; handicap mark hasn't really gone anywhere so has to be considered. |
