27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
A fair C&D winner at 2yrs; came in last of ten in 7f Ascot handicap on his seasonal return but this Harry Angel gelding can take a step forward now back in trip. |

10th 4 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
All turf races at sprint trips on good to firm and good, vigorously ridden when making all at Windsor last August from one who went on to better things; a similarly useful effort when runner-up on Kempton AW in October but he lacks a recent run and has a new trip to contend with. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Represents last year's winning stable but was beaten fair and square by Ardisia in Ayr nursery last month and now meets that rival on 10lb worse terms; hard to see him turning the tables. |
40/1 |

3rd 8 (7) |
19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Newmarket trainer won this last year; short-headed at Windsor (6f, good) in July on second nursery start then went one better at Ffos Las (6f, good to soft); however, he failed to make an impact at Doncaster (6f, good) only last Friday and has to leave that run behind. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has been kept busy and scored for the second time this year when successful over C&D last month off 6lb lower; not disgraced in better company at Epsom eight days ago but may need to come back down the weights. |
12/1 |
|
7th 5 (5) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Exploited reduced mark with clearcut win at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last month; evidently in good nick but went back up 6lb for that and this return to turf may not be ideal. |
5/1 |
|
1st 10 (1) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Only finished placed once from nine runs in handicaps (over C&D in the winter) and is fully exposed; hasn't always looked straightforward, hanging right more than once, and remains vulnerable to improvers. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Absent and gelded since finishing 4l second to the market leader at Carlisle (6f, soft) a year ago when attempting to follow up his Windsor success (6f, good); sets the form standard on reappearance and, assuming all is fine, still has potential to boot. |
8/11 |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Home-bred by Territories; 7-2 when 2l winner of a Windsor maiden last month (6f, good); should improve; chance. |
5/4 |
|
5 (12) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
February foal; first foal; dam Group-placed 1m winner (RPR 96), closely related to 6f Listed winner Great Ambassador, half-sister to 7f winner Snow Squaw, out of 1m/1m4f Listed winner; yard 24% with 2yos last year and he needs a close look on debut. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Is enjoying a fine season and racked up a fourth victory at Doncaster (1m) in April; posted another very good effort when runner-up in 1m2f handicap at Epsom six days ago; this likeable front runner is a player once more off an unchanged mark. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 5 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Usually ridden by Rose Dawes; won four of seven handicaps, all once visored, including from the front over 1m at Bath (good to soft) and Doncaster when returned to turf; helped to set a strong gallop when fifth of ten at Haydock latest but he needs to resume improvement and this new trip is not sure to help. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
The winner of four of his six handicap runs since fitted with a visor, including two impressive front-running displays since returned to turf (1m; good to soft and good to firm); 5lb higher in a stronger race but he cannot be passed over at all lightly, such has been his progress. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up off 4lb higher at Kempton (7f, AW) in April but he's been well held in his last three runs and is now 0-11; cheekpieces are removed and visor is now tried. |
13/2 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
3yo maiden who has broadly respectable 7f form this term; gives the impression this return to 6f is worth exploring; possibilities off a mark that's 7lb below his opening one. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark in a C&D handicap last week (good); has stiffer task with his penalty and was withdrawn on account of fast ground last month, but worth considering. |
5/2 |
|
1st 5 (12) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has led; 0-9 but he only just failed to hang on in an AW handicap (6f) on final 2yo start and he's run two good races over 7f (good and soft) for new connections this year; very likely to go well back over 6f. |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Six-race maiden; runner-up at Kempton (7f novice, AW) in June, and third of five at Chester (7f nursery, good) a few weeks later; latest run was disappointing (last of four) and it is slightly disconcerting to see him drop into a seller in hastily applied blinkers; bit to prove. |
4/1 |
|
2 (1) |
20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
0-5; shaped well when running on for third of five at Chester (7f) on his handicap debut last month, and a heavy-ground defeat at Goodwood since is probably worth forgiving; the step up to 1m could suit and the return to AW is no problem (runner-up here in June). |
13/8 |
|
10 (1) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Now 0-4 but he sat in last of five when third to Sir Albert and Champion Island last time at Chester (7f, good) and was closing on the front two late on; he could easily finish to some effect and make his presence felt if they go hard here. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Kept on well when scoring over C&D in November; ran okay back from a break in April and latest lacklustre run can be excused on account of soft ground; one to consider. |
10/1 |
|
10th 5 (1) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained since) in a nursery at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last November; April's reappearance sixth at Southwell (6f, AW) gives him something to build on and he's a possible contender if the return to turf isn't an issue. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Built on his Chelmsford third to score in newly applied cheekpieces at Wolverhampton (6f, AW; 11-1 from 4lb lower) last November; lacks the benefit of a recent run but there may be further improvement to come. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Good run when second at Chelmsford on his nursery debut in December (5f; cheekpieces first time); struggled since and hopes rest on the new tongue tie giving him a lift. |
33/1 |
|
17th 16 (8) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with a good second in 5f Chelmsford nursery but he's failed to fire in three runs this year, last of six in 5f Newcastle handicap in February; hood is added after a break. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (2) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Creditable second on handicap debut at Chelmsford in December (5f; cheekpieces on for first time) but below that form both starts since; blinkers tried last time but cheekpieces back on here. |

2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Beat two rivals on nursery debut at Ffos Las (7.4f, good) in July and, having been gelded, finished third of eight at Kempton (1m, AW) last month when not taking the home bend too well; won't have the same problem here and should go well. |
9/4 |

3 (2) |
11th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well held in his first three starts and only beat two rivals when making a successful nursery debut at Ffos Las (7.4f, good) last month; gelded since and now 3lb higher, but he is still respected for stable that is 6-25 (24%) here in past five seasons. |
