8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Ran well on C&D return in 2025 before winning his next two over 6f, at Leicester (good to firm; made all) and York; his form took a downward turn after but his recent Newbury fourth was a step in the right direction and he's only 2lb higher than for the York win; looks good for a prominent show. |

17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Won a couple of useful 6f 3yo handicaps in the first half of 2025; no progress since but he is edging back down the weights; returns from four months off and he will need to be at his best. |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 3 |

Jolt of improvement this summer, winning a strong Leicester handicap in May and following up at York in June (both over 6f on good to firm); well beaten on his last two starts though and returns from a 12-week break with something to prove. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Joint-favourite with Almeraq in Salisbury Listed race last time but underperformed; bottom of this pack on ratings and accordingly faces a much stiffer assignment than when winning a handicap at this meeting last year; blinkers added. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Made good progress over 6f last season; better than ever with his second at Leicester four weeks ago (6f, good to firm); still has more to give but this looks deep for a Listed contest. |

2nd 3 (10) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won four times during a progressive campaign last year but he's come up short in Listed/Group 3 events this spring; seems ideally suited by fast ground but he's still 4lb higher than for his last win and has some work to do back in a handicap. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the 11th attempt when landing a Chepstow maiden (6f, soft) in September but that was a golden opportunity and he struggled back in a handicap in his final run last season; drops back in grade on his return but he has a patchy profile and others are more convincing. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Off the mark at the 11th attempt when comfortably seeing off four rivals in a Chepstow maiden last month (6f, soft); has run well in some useful handicaps this year but likely he will need another career-best to come out on top this time. |

9st 7lb |
In good form this season prior to being awarded a 7f Leicester handicap two weeks ago; 3lb higher mark to deal with today but she's had few chances over this trip on good ground or quicker and could yet rate higher. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 3 |

0-9 since debut win last May but has been running well of late, most recently 3l second of five at Sandown (7f, good to firm) behind an unexposed and well-bred winner; might not be far away. |

Comparatively exposed, being 0-8 since debut win, but is in form having performed well in 6f handicaps the last twice; latest effort suggests this return to 7f is worth exploring. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Produced peak performance over C&D, namely close second to Elmonjed in Listed event; however, faces a stiffer assignment in this higher grade and his reappearance effort (heavy defeat in Newmarket Group 3) hardly bodes well. |
33/1 |
|
13th 3 (10) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 0-5 on turf compared to 2-3 on AW; admittedly registered his peak RPR in this sphere when second Elmonjed in York Listed contest (6f) on penultimate appearance; however, needs an even bigger effort to go one better in this field. |

Has led; won sole 2yo start (7f, AW); well held when attempting 6f at Leicester in May and he didn't look to be crying out for a return to this trip when plugging on into fourth of eight at Newmarket (7f) in August; could be tough against the specialists; blinkers fitted. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 3 |

Won sole 2yo start (7f, AW); three runs this year, with a fair sixth at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last time on handicap debut; improvement needed but he's been gelded since and his trainer has won the last two runnings; interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

9st 10lb |
Steadily progressive and has a largely solid record; won well in his last handicap attempt, then ran well in Listed grade; gelded since; has C&D form and looks an interesting contender on seasonal debut, with further improvement a possibility; market support should be heeded. |
16/1 |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 1 |

Reliable sort who's found some improvement in recent starts, on last two occasions taking second at Ascot (7f, soft) and winning well in a handicap at Haydock (1m, good to soft); first crack at 1m suited him very well last time but another step forward is required. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Perhaps in need of the run when eighth of 13 behind Hucklesbrook at Leicester on return in May and left that behind him when readily seeing off his 13 rivals at Windsor last month (6f, good to firm); that race has thrown up some winners and a 7lb rise looks justified but he is in much deeper this time. |

26th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Salisbury win last summer has been well advertised since and his subsequent Group 2 effort is likely best overlooked (trapped deep and pulled hard over 7f); since been gelded and still has potential now handicapping back from ten months off. |

26th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Only ran over 5f last season, when finding it too much a couple of times in Listed/Group 3 company; pedigree gives hope that a stiff 6f will be within range but she's more exposed than a few and is some way down the pecking order after seven months off. |

He's gone 0-12 in handicaps but is edging down the weights and ran well to finish fourth of ten at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last time (form has been franked); this season's runs have been in Class 3s so this is a drop in grade. |
