9st 9lb |
Improving at a rate of knots, blowing away limited opposition in a 5f Southwell maiden in March before winning a competitive Class 3 handicap by daylight back at Southwell one month later; another dominant display at Chester last month (6f, good), fast away from a wide draw and settling the race quickly when surging clear off the home turn; dropping back to 5f should be fine but the form of the latest win hasn't worked out, he's up 12lb and is untried on quicker than good; remains a promising sprinter but this may not be his day. |

Well beaten on his 2yo debut (6f, good to soft) but his form took off on faster ground subsequently, winning 5f novices at Redcar and Nottingham before big efforts at Glorious Goodwood and York's Ebor meeting (Group 3/Listed); two solid efforts in defeat this year, hamstrung by a refusal to settle when a close fifth in a York Listed race five weeks ago (5f, good to firm); this test might suit better and a big run wouldn't be a surprise. |

Ended 2024 in good form, completing a 6f hat-trick with the final leg in the Two Year Old Trophy at Redcar (soft; Listed); well drawn there and it was a substandard renewal, so he'll need to find plenty more to defy this mark. |

Made a bright start to her 2yo career, winning on debut before finishing second in a York Listed race and fourth in the Queen Mary over C&D; easy win in a Naas Listed event last July (5f, yielding); beaten four times since but she ran well in Listed grade at York five weeks ago and should go well on this handicap debut. |

In the same ownership as Miss Lamai and finished just in front of that rival when third of 24 in last season's Queen Mary; unplaced in three starts this year but looks to retain all her ability, faring better than the result when sixth in a strong Listed race at Cork (5.5f, good) last month; a big run at rewarding odds can't be ruled out in this her first handicap. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Didn't look obviously well handicapped ahead of his reappearance at Sandown in April and he was only fourth of nine despite being notably strong in the betting; again only midfield in a hot York handicap three weeks ago but that run was eyecatching, slowly away and in rear before finishing his race with a flourish (fastest finishing split); he wouldn't want to repeat the slow start today but he's dropped 2lb and this race could be more receptive to those held up; stable won this in 2023; won his only start on good to firm; strong suspicion there's a bigger performance looming and new cheekpieces could help. |

Came up short in Group races after winning a Ripon maiden last August; notably strong in the betting on his seasonal/handicap debut at Sandown last month and ran creditably, albeit without looking ahead of his mark; could do with settling better if he's to come out on top here. |

Promise at Newmarket on seasonal return (6f, good) and she duly built on it when coming from an unpromising position to lead late in the 3yo Dash at Epsom 13 days ago (5f, good); this more conventional track should suit and a 5lb rise is justified, but she will need to take another step forward. |

Much improved for the addition of a tongue-tie and switch to handicaps, winning a 6f nursery at Yarmouth last September and progressing again this year when third at Sandown before rewarding strong support at Chester (both 5f, good); could well have more to offer for a yard that had a near-miss in this race in 2023, but the handicapper didn't miss with a 9lb rise for Chester. |

Irish raider who ended 2024 with a 6f maiden win at Navan and returned to action with a smooth success at Cork in April (5f, good); pitched into Group 3 at Naas last month (6f, good) and found things happening too quickly for him in the final 2f; this should be more suitable but others are perhaps better treated. |

Highly tried after a winning debut last July (6f, good) when trained by Kevin Ryan; best effort when second of ten in a 5f nursery here (soft) last October; three runs in Dubai for Dylan Cunha early in the year, running creditably on the first occasion before two lesser efforts (stiff task latest); changed hands since and he's in a hot race for his stable debut. |

Green in the closing stages when second to subsequent Middle Park and Dewhurst winner and 2,000 Guineas third Shadow Of Light on Newmarket debut last August (6f, good); followed that with a third of 17 in a hot York maiden three weeks later (7f, good to firm); off nine months before a bloodless success at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; the strength of his 2yo form suggests he's a Group-race performer in waiting (entered in the Commonwealth Cup) and an opening mark of 93 could seriously underestimate him; he is tackling a new trip and hasn't always looked straightforward, so there are possible negatives, but there is also plenty of potential upside. |

8st 12lb |
Fitted with blinkers for the first time when making all in a 6f maiden at Dundalk in April; he has followed that with three solid placed efforts in Irish sprint handicaps; ran well in his one run on good to firm ground (as a 2yo); should give his running but minor money perhaps his best hope. |

AW maiden winner (6f); in fine form since joining this yard; denied by a short head by Red Evolution on first try at 5f at Cork latest; obvious chance from good draw off the same mark. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Well beaten at 125-1 in the Windsor Castle here last year; progressive for new yard, though, winning at Southwell in December and runner-up in three of his four runs since; edging up the weights and hasn't always looked straightforward but further improvement couldn't be ruled out. |

25th Apr 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 2 |

Progressive in these cheekpieces on AW for current yard, going close over 6f at Kempton recently; needs to transfer his improvement back to grass and his best turf efforts came on soft/heavy ground, but this stiff 5f could suit and he might not be far away. |

8st 11lb |
Won twice as 2yo (6f on good to soft) and ran well for second in a Newmarket sales race last October (only start in cheekpieces); gelded prior to his reappearance over 7f at Goodwood, where he impressed with how well he travelled; whether he has the pace for 5f on fast ground remains to be seen, though. |

Below par when prominent in betting for the C&D nursery won by Mr Chaplin but is worth another crack at this trip; fairly useful over 6f otherwise last season, winning twice; gelded since last run (creditable effort in sales race); not ruled out. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Two wins as a 2yo but his form has been a bit up and down in seven starts; couldn't hang in there in 5f handicap at Royal Ascot last time but he was second of 16 in the 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he seems tactically versatile. |

Outran his 100-1 odds when sixth of 24 in the Palace of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm; hooded for the first time); dropped 2lb since and he's a major player in this easier company. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Ripon win on 2yo debut (6f, good) and he ran creditably in a Listed race over that C&D two weeks later; neither subsequent start has been comparable and the addition of a hood isn't enough to recommend him this time. |

16th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Impressive on last season's debut (6f, good; strong favourite); third in Listed company a fortnight later but his form dipped at Thirsk when last seen in September; gelded over the winter; should be quick enough to cope with 5f but not obviously well treated; stable also run Loom and Tuscan Point. |

Unexposed 3yo who has improved his RPR with each start, winning a 6f novice at Kempton in April (12lb worse off with runner-up Hoodie Hoo today) and runner-up in a Windsor novice and a Musselburgh handicap (5f, good) on his last two starts; the return to 6f will suit and he's open to further progress; respected. |

Low-mileage colt; 6f AW win in April has been followed by two solid efforts, latterly second of ten in a Musselburgh handicap a fortnight ago (5f, good); that was only Class 4, though, and he will need to raise his game to feature here; reserve. |

Raced only at 6f so far, winning at Kempton (AW) in April and narrowly denied at Windsor (good to firm) the following month; should be just as effective at 5f and is open to improvement now tackling a handicap for the first time; has to be respected. |

Won AW novice at Chelmsford last summer; struggled on handicap debut at Chester in May but that was from a wide draw and he left that form well behind when an eyecatching fifth in big field at Epsom (5f, good) last month; ties in with Lexington Blitz on that form and he still has untapped potential; shortlisted. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Promising at two and he has had excuses for both runs this year (tricky draw at Chester and he didn't look in love with the track at Epsom); the latter run was encouraging nonetheless and he can surely be placed to advantage at some stage back at more conventional tracks such as this; reserve. |

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

Lightly raced; improved when seventh in Listed contest at Ayr on final 2yo start and he was poorly drawn at Chester on reappearance; sole win came at 6f but he has plenty of speed and 5f is probably his trip; chance. |
