10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Four wins at 6f for previous yard but he was far from disgraced when seventh of 28 in 7f Victoria Cup here (good; first-time cheekpieces) in May; drawn on the wrong side when he finished last at the Royal meeting but he's dropped to a handy mark and shouldn't be discounted on this return to 6f. |

28th 26 (7) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time 6f winner who ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) in the Victoria Cup over C&D most recently, albeit taking record for current yard to 0-5 and failing to improve for a return to 7f. |
33/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned mostly over 6f, winning four times for previous yard; 2-5 on grass; mixed results on AW for new stable; ran respectably in sole 7f attempt but chance of landing this hot handicap partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Won his first two starts in maiden/novice company; second of nine at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on his handicap debut last June but it has been tougher going since; latest third at Ripon was a promising enough return to action though and he should give a good account. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Shaped well on his first four career starts, winning an Ayr maiden (5f, good) and a Pontefract novice (6f, good); disappointing since, including on first run after being gelded (AW) last time; back after a break. |
14/1 |
|
12th 5 (8) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won his first two starts and he was a close second on his handicap debut last June (6f, good to firm); struggled thereafter, albeit pitched into a Group 1 at Royal Ascot; gelded during his 132-day absence; could still have some potential and switching to AW shouldn't be a problem. |

9st 5lb |
Absent since winning in first-time blinkers (retained) over C&D three months ago on second start for new yard and on AW; unexposed in this sphere and still has leeway in the handicap (peak mark was 16lb higher). |
7/1 |
|
5th 2 (1) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
In and out for George Scott this season but not disgraced over 7f at Chelmsford (AW debut) three weeks ago; can compete off a career-low mark so would have real possibilities if revitalised by a change of stable. |

Promising 2yo for Jack Davison in Ireland last season; yet to shine for current stable and, although the handicapper is relenting, this looks competitive enough. |

26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a modest 8.6f seller at Wolverhampton last September; not so good since and he'll need to be at his best to take this; is at least unexposed at the trip. |
10/1 |

5th 6 (2) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Ended his 2025 campaign in sellers, winning once and finishing third twice; well treated on best form but isn't sure to reproduce it and record of 0-8 in handicaps adds doubt. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
This C&D brought out the best in him last season with two close seconds in August (both on good to firm); returned to form with close fourth of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month on his second start of the season and he could play a leading role back here. |
9/2 |
|
4th 13 (6) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
C&D winner; blew hot and cold for former stable but well handicapped on 2025 best; raced freely and dropped away in the final furlong on his stable debut at Newmarket last month; up in class and likely vulnerable. |
16/1 |
|
6th 2 (2) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Below par on AW last autumn on final two runs for Stuart Williams; however, he twice went close on the other Newmarket course (6f, good to firm) last August and he'll be bang there if rediscovering that form on his stable and seasonal debut, for which he wears a tongue-tie; remains in same ownership. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Responded well to first-time cheekpieces in C&D event when last seen two months ago, taking AW record to 541; may show further progress in the retained headgear; respected. |
7/2 |
|
9 (2) |
20th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to win this season but has posted some good efforts, most recently when fourth (just behind Golden Redemption) at Newbury (7f, good) last month; should be fine back at 6f; each-way claims at least. |
6/1 |
|
3 (3) |
28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Bath maiden (5.7f, firm) last June; 0-7 in handicaps since but it was a solid run when second of nine over C&D (good) a fortnight ago; chance off the same mark. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His last two 7f wins came off just a 1lb lower mark, most recently in February, but he wasn't at his best in two runs last month on turf and the AW; others higher up the list. |
14/1 |
|
8 (3) |
19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won off 3lb lower at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February; good second over 6f at Newcastle next time but his form has cooled in last two starts; bit to prove again and he needs to bounce back near best. |
12/1 |
|
8 (3) |
2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins have been at 7f but he was a good second over this trip at Newcastle on AW finals day; didn't pack the same punch when fifth at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time but he's still unexposed as a sprinter and is not ruled out back in trip. |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Clung on for dead-heat in Chelmsford maiden (6f, AW) in March but he's not gone on from that and was always in rear here (7f) two weeks ago; on reduced mark with Oisin Murphy booked but he needs to rediscover his spark back in trip. |
11/1 |
|
9th 10 (9) |
24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Short-priced favourite on each of his first four starts and clung on for a dead-heat at Chelmsford in March; smidge frustrating in handicaps since. |
10/1 |
|
12 (8) |
20th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Most of his best form has come on the AW, including when dead-heating in a Chelmsford maiden (6f) in March and when third of 12 at Lingfield (7f) last month; needs to show he can produce a similar performance back on grass; stable won this last year. |
