20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Scored at Newcastle (7f) in December and largely in good form after on AW; only 13th on rare turf start in 1m York handicap last time though so needs to take a step forward. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Well handicapped on last year's best form (including on turf) and ran okay when third of six at Southwell (1m, AW) last month; however, he's been hard to win with on grass and looks vulnerable back up in grade. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
The oldest contender and a familiar face, having taken part in this race for the last four years (form figures read 6529); beat all bar Eldrickjones over C&D last month but the return to this better grade presents a tougher task. |
16/1 |

Four-time C&D winner, including this race in 2021; second in it last year; has continued in good form in the main since winning over C&D last November (didn't run badly at Doncaster latest) and is on the shortlist now back here. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Dual turf winner (7f, good) who won on AW at Newcastle in December, but he's not easy to predict and was beaten 11l when sixth at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) last month; has bit to prove again after that and he's still 6lb higher than for his last win; regular hood is removed. |
8/1 |

6th 3 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Defied penalty in 3yo novice here (good) in 2024; back from a 145-day break and wind surgery when landing Class 2 at Newcastle (also 7f, AW) in December and beaten a neck at Abu Dhabi (1m, good) in March; career-high mark but still considered. |
6/1 |

16th 5 (16) |
21st Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Confined to 7f for all his runs and the winner of two novices on good ground; didn't get the best of runs when a 3l third at Goodwood two runs back and then raced freely with no cover at Doncaster; retains potential and probably quick enough for 6f. |

30th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Dual Tapeta winner last year who's looked to find this mark just beyond him in three runs back; pulled hard and didn't see it out last time (7f) but this will be more about speed on his first ever crack at sprinting. |
8/1 |
|
4 (5) |
12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Has won two of his five races since gelded, both over 7f on the Southwell Tapeta; latest fourth at Newcastle (7f) was a fine run as well, with the first three ridden handier and he found some trouble in running; should get involved if as effective back on turf. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Recent efforts have not been his best but he's a dual C&D winner who has never been this low in the weights; a revival would come as no surprise. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
No turf win since 2022 but he has won three AW handicaps in the last 14 months; should be well treated but recent efforts haven't been his best; this is a drop in class so not dismissed, even though the return of cheekpieces wouldn't be an obvious plus based on previous usage. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days but it was a fairly close third at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; now 4lb lower after four lesser runs; handicapping case can be made but percentage call is to oppose. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
He's been well below his best on his three starts since a close fifth in a Group 3 at Saint-Cloud (1m, soft) in March; however, he's been gelded since his latest outing three months ago and he's very much a player if rediscovering last year's peak form, when a Listed winner (1m, good). |
14/1 |
|
24th 2 (17) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Good second (off 20lb lower) in the Britannia at this meeting two years ago but he was progressive at the time, whereas his form has dipped in last two outings (normally a consistent sort, including at Group level); 2-2 at the Curragh compared to only 1-16 elsewhere; wears first-time headgear. |
50/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Form dipped last time when he raced too freely; otherwise a broadly consistent sort who may rebound, provided he settles better; has Group form and can't be dismissed from a ratings perspective but may be more interesting when back at the Curragh where he's 2-2 (only 1-15 elsewhere). |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Big prices and out of the frame in three starts since returning in April, albeit he met trouble when finishing in midfield in the Carlisle Bell (7.7f, soft) last month; 4lb lower than for the latest of two wins in April last year; interesting. |
10/1 |

13 (12) |
25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins last April (1m, AW/soft) and he's 1lb lower than when last successful; the return to slow turf could also be a plus; however, he's failed to shine on either outing this season and has something to prove. |
25/1 |

9th 9 (12) |
11th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

7yo who has an impressive 8-28 strike-rate and is effective on Tapeta; he may have needed his comeback run at Newmarket last month but was beaten a long way at 66-1, and he was also below par last May/July on his final two outings last season; plenty to prove. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
He's dropped to a mark 8lb lower than when winning at Ayr (1m, soft) last September; however, he's been a long way below his best this year, including on his favoured soft/heavy ground on his last three starts. |
14/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 3 |

Well suited by soft/heavy ground; generally well below form this term, most recently in Ayr race that he'd won off a higher mark 12 months earlier; chance largely depends on the effects of first-time visor. |

7th 6 (6) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Well backed when winning the corresponding race 12 months ago; 3lb lower today and although this year's efforts have been modest, he had a break before his reappearance 19 days ago and will be fresh for his autumn campaign; high on the list. |
