2nd 5 (9) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Juvenile wins came in 6f novices; has held his own in 5f handicaps this year, doing well on the far side when fourth of 27 at Royal Ascot (good to firm) just behind Ten Carat Harry; return to 6f can suit; better claims than most. |
6/1 |

4th 20 (9) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
He has improved his RPR with each of his four starts, bettering 2yo form when chasing home Black Star Boy at Sandown (5f, good) eight weeks ago; unexposed at the trip but that latest form has taken some knocks and he's up 2lb. |
16/1 |

2nd 2 (2) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Chester (6f, good) last June on second start and comfortably followed up in novice there (6f, good) the following month; absent since and this handicap debut is a much tougher test of his credentials, but he's a bright prospect and it remains to be seen where his limitations lie. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Finished behind Hello Isla over C&D 19 days ago but he ran creditably in the circumstances and new blinkers could prompt extra; dropped 2lb and he's one to consider. |
14/1 |
|

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten around 5l when third of four at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) but he went backwards from that at Chester (6f, good) on his next start; reported to have never travelled when beating only one rival on handicap debut at Leicester (5f, good) five weeks ago and now steps back up to 6f for AW debut. |
18/1 |
|
6th 2 (8) |
30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Like Dandy's Rocket, his second start stands out and he's been gelded before switching to nurseries; this half-brother to five winners makes more appeal though. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
7f/1m AW wins late last year; given every chance when 3l behind Laureate Crown at Sandown two runs back (1m, good) and then failed to make any impression in Newbury's always-strong London Gold Cup; pulling hard was the last thing he needed when upped to 1m2f in the latter but it wasn't the ideal preparation for this tough a test. |
66/1 |
|
9th 8 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Hope for 1m2f on pedigree; ended last term with 7f and 1m AW wins; led over 2f out to over 1f out when creditable fourth of seven in handicap at Sandown (1m, good; 25-1) three weeks ago, and perhaps he needed that race, but others seem to have more striking claims. |
20/1 |
|
4th 6 (7) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Improved upon first two runs (both on turf) to win at Southwell (7f, AW) last October, and followed up on handicap debut there (1m, AW); had just three rivals to beat last time and he's 12lb higher today with something to prove on turf, but is not discounted given the ease of that last win. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Experienced 3yo who was winning for third time this year when scoring at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May; short-headed at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago by one who was completing a hat-trick; major contender. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 6 (7) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained his sixth success when winning at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May and ran well again at Windsor (6f, good to soft) next time, but failed to beat a rival at Ffos Las ten days ago and needs to bounce back. |
20/1 |

7th 5 (2) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Had a busy year but holding his form well and nothing wrong with his narrow defeat on good to soft at Windsor last time; solid claims. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Posted an improved effort when runner-up at Ripon (1m, good) last month and went one better at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm; made all) two weeks ago, form that has since been franked by the second; cheekpieces now go on and he should give it a good go from the front. |
13/8 |
|
1st 2 (6) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Placed in three of his four handicap runs this year, the latest when second at Ripon (1m, good) two weeks ago; major player in a race lacking depth. |
11/8 |

2nd 1 (3) |

Maiden; placed in handicaps at Carlisle (1m, soft; winner and third have won since) and Leicester (7f, good to firm) in May; not so good last time (1m1f, soft); chance. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won three in a row on AW (1m2f/1m4f) in February and he was a creditable second when upped to 1m6f in a Redcar handicap (good to firm) last month; takes on two previous winners on this hurdling debut but he has some fair form on the Flat and he's not ruled out. |
8/1 |

2nd 2 (2) |
26th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
3-3 in AW handicaps but record on turf reads 009; made all on his penultimate start and could be interesting if similar tactics are employed, but his suitability to grass remains an issue. |
9/4 |
|
9th 14 (14) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Tailed off in two turf races on good last July; firmly on the up in AW handicaps when last seen, registering a quickfire hat-trick in February and last two starts were at 1m4f (made all last time); absent since and this is a much more competitive contest for his return to turf. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Best form when second in a Chester maiden in July; has been below that form since, including in a couple of nurseries; first-time cheekpieces worn last time are discarded and he needs to show more. |
16/1 |
|
11 (6) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Promising second at Chester (6f, good) on second start but a lesser run followed at Newcastle (6f, AW) and soundly beaten on recent nursery debut at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft); has to raise game in first-time cheekpieces. |
12/1 |
|
6 (8) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has shown ability over 6f, notably when second at Chester, while shaping as if this drop in trip will suit on nursery debut; interesting. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Slowly away when down the field at Chester (6f, good; 6-1) on debut 41 days ago; now switches to AW (dam an AW winner) and steps up to 7f; more needed but he may well be capable of leaving that effort behind. |

11th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
45,000euros yearling, 10,000gns vendor 2yo (April breeze-up sales); trainer among the winners and had a 2yo newcomer go in at Ripon on Monday but stall 11 isn't ideal for this first foal of sprinter Declaring Love, who improved with time. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Ended five-race 2yo season with respectable fifth in Chester nursery (7f, good to soft; first-time visor) in September and last month's reappearance defeat can be overlooked, given she was badly hampered at the start; not yet fully exposed; could have a say. |
9/1 |
|
9th 9 (5) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Modest efforts over 6f/7f last term, including in two nurseries, with a visor tried on final start (7f); on a lowly mark, and with her stable gong well, is one to consider on first try at 5f. |
9/2 |
|
5th 9 (3) |
20th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Well held in three qualifying runs and same story on nursery debut at Southwell (6f, AW; 28-1) two weeks ago; still early days and visor is now added but she needs a transformation on this step up to 7f; one of three runners for Hugo Palmer. |
