19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won two in a row at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) and Chester (5f, good to soft) before midfield finish at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) and runner-up to an odds-on winner at Chester (6f, good) last time; he's particularly effective at Chester but is not ruled out each-way on his first run here. |
16/1 |

2nd 5 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Third Chester success when beating older horses over 5f (good to soft; has won on good to firm) last month; never involved behind Calico Blue in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot since but his 1131 course record suggests a much better run is likely now. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Reasonably exposed over shorter distances and remains a maiden; attractively treated on best efforts but chance of finally winning partly depends on the effects of new trip. |
8/1 |
|
6th 9 (2) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Regressive maiden who continues to race freely, so dropping back from 7f might be no bad thing; wouldn't be the percentage play, though. |

8th 6 (4) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Early promise for James Horton last season but his campaign rather fizzled out; dropped away in the final 300yds at Haydock on his seasonal/stable debut three weeks ago but he may have needed the run and that was a 0-70; should last longer today. |
10/1 |

9th 12 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Early promise for James Horton last season but his campaign rather fizzled out; starts out for a new trainer (sold for 5,000gns in October) off a reduced mark; worth a market check. |
40/1 |
|
8th 1 (4) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two good placed efforts at Chester in the spring; gelded after finishing down the field at Royal Ascot and subsequent efforts have been underwhelming; drops into a 0-60 - an uncompetitive one at that - and a revival isn't out of the question. |

2nd 3 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who has been running well on turf since the visor went back on, winning at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in July and at Redcar (6f, good) 12 days ago; up 7lb and makes his Polytrack debut, but this sharp 6f should suit; shortlisted. |
4/1 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Gained a first success at Doncaster (6f) in July and recorded a solid fourth of eight in another 6f handicap there three weeks ago; not out of things eased 1lb. |
7/1 |
|
4th 5 (7) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Beaten a neck over C&D in June; made amends the following week before his revised mark could kick into force, making all to fend off a pair of rivals who also raced far side early on in that contest; weakened quickly when last of four at Nottingham latest; needs to bounce back. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
3yo maiden who failed to settle when back over 7f most recently; performed encouragingly in last two 6f attempts, making the frame at Newcastle (AW) and Haydock; could go well. |
11/2 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
No threat to winner but made good headway from the rear to finish second at Haydock (6f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) last month; eased in grade here and looks well worth another crack at 7f; good chance. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Has shown ability but remains winless after seven attempts and it would be a shock if his first win is registered in this warm contest. |
66/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Creditable second over C&D (good) in May but not in the same form again since, including when beaten in plating company two starts ago, and needs to up his game; refitted cheekpieces the headgear of choice today. |
7/1 |
|
3 (3) |
20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Second of eight at Chester (6f) in May but he's been below his best in two starts since being gelded, including in a seller at Musselburgh (7f; first-time cheekpieces) 12 days ago; blinkers now tried on his first attempt over 1m. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up on his debut at Thirsk (5f, good) last May but hasn't built on that in four starts since; never featured after being slowly into stride in first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton last month and has since been dropped another 3lb. |
14/1 |
|
8th 9 (10) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
On the go early last season before missing the best part of a year; struggled badly in two runs back, having been gelded, and much will depend on first-time headgear. |
25/1 |
|
7th 5 (1) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Showed promise with second-place finish at Thirsk (5f) on 2yo debut; has regressed in two starts (6f) since but may stage a turnaround now handicapping. |

20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Weakened into fifth on last week's nursery debut here (1m; blinkered first time) but he shaped much better than that, ultimately paying the price for trying to match strides with the easy winner; drops back to 7f and remains capable of better. |
8/1 |
|
8 (3) |
11th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Has beaten a total of one rival in three starts over 5f-6f on turf; gelded since last seen and blinkers given a go, but a big transformation is needed stepping up another 2f in trip on nursery debut. |
10/1 |
|
8 (3) |
31st May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Sands Of Mali colt has offered little in 5f Beverley novice and 5.5f Bath maiden this spring; significantly more is required. |
