29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Excels here and ran another good race at the track when a closing third behind Under The Twilight, having got behind; a faster pace today would play to his strengths; no ground concerns. |
11/2 |

3rd 6 (4) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
9yo who's an eight-time Windsor winner, including this May and June; beat Amazonian Dream in the latter race and runner-up to him here next time, before not disgraced on a first crack at Brighton; reliable sort from off the pace and he has each-way claims again. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (7) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Eight-time Windsor winner, including twice of late, who's having a first run round here; ultra-consistent, especially considering his age and that he's usually dropped in, but there's little room for manoeuvre off this mark; yard also responsible for Duskaura. |

24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
On a long losing sequence but recent form includes a couple of encouraging efforts and he did too much up front when fifth of six at Brighton (5f) 19 days ago; needs considering eased 1lb. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (2) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Placed three times from seven starts since returned to turf in May; no match for easy winner when second over C&D (good to firm) last month and remains well below the best of last year's form but still has possibilities; often wears cheekpieces but goes in refitted blinkers today. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Trailblazer who is not the force he once was, but was runner-up at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last month; should give his supporters a run for their money but vulnerable to a late closer. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won two Class 5s before a strong-finishing third at this level here last time having been last at one point; however, stall 11 could be a killer. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 9 (3) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Course win (5f, good) last July; arrives in top form, winning Class 5 events at Bath and Newbury (5f, firm and good to firm) this summer; 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Ran twice over C&D last summer and performed with great credit on both occasions, finishing second to Faustus in July and filling the same position one month later; career-best effort when winning at Bath last week (5f, firm); penalty demands more but he can't be discounted. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In-form front-runner who has two wins, a second and two thirds to his name in five runs here; on career-high mark, though, having been put up 5lb for his Newmarket win early in the month under 7lb claimer Chloe Lyons. |
4/1 |

4th 1 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Tough and consistent sort who made all over C&D (good to firm) under Chloe Lyons last Saturday; raised 5lb but likely to give it his usual good shot. |
9/4 |
|
1st 1 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Tough 5f performer, holding his form well; close third under regular rider Chloe Lyons at Windsor on Monday; should give it his best shot again. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Not the force of old and, although he retains some ability, others in this field have more pressing claims. |
10/1 |

4th 3 (5) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-23, the win coming in a nursery here (6f) at the end of 2024; will need to improve on recent efforts if he is to double his tally. |
25/1 |
|
8th 5 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win was in December 2024 but that was over C&D; finished down the field in three runs for current yard but the saddle slipped at Brighton (7f, good) last time and he was only beaten around 2l; could go well on this drop back in trip and he's not ruled out. |
8/1 |

6th 6 (3) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

1-21; mainly seen on the AW but appears to handle turf; drops to this level for the first time and the stable won this last year; each-way claims. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has shown all of her AW form on Tapeta; below best in a light 2026 campaign but is well treated provided she's resurgent on Polytrack debut; 1lb below last winning mark. |
14/1 |

6th 7 (2) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Well beaten on both runs this year (5f), here most recently, and a major turnaround is necessary; however, the form of the stable catches the eye and she won over C&D last October; back up in trip today; interesting. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
In fine form in the second half of 2025, winning five times; ran his best race this season when fourth of six at Windsor (5f, good to soft) in June but disappointed back from a short break at Ripon a fortnight ago. |
14/1 |

18th 2 (16) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
In fine form in the second half of 2025, winning five times; ran his best race this season when fourth of six at Windsor (5f, good to soft) when last seen in June; on a winning mark but slower ground would be preferable. |
12/1 |

4th 7 (5) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Five wins in 2025 (all at 5f; on good, heavy and soft ground); had trip and draw excuses for first two runs this year but he'd shot his bolt over a furlong out at Goodwood last time out; might do better back on a more conventional track and the change in the weather brings him into it. |
