23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Recorded his sixth victory of the year with a career-best effort in 5.4f handicap at York 16 days ago; he's also a winner in the mud so must enter calculations once more. |

7th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He has enjoyed a fine season, winning five handicaps, and he ran another sound race when fourth in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon three weeks ago; this intermediate trip should suit and he's versatile where the going is concerned; likely to run well but might find a few better treated. |
10/1 |

16th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
He's enjoyed a fine year and although he's come unstuck on his last two starts, he did too much early at York and then raced up the middle in the Stewards' Cup; earlier Ascot win off just 2lb lower was a fine effort; first visit to Ripon but he has won on the undulations at Epsom; drawn against the rail and a big run would seem likely. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Progressive last year, with his three wins including two at Ascot (one over C&D); confirmed his affinity for the track with a good fourth in the Wokingham three weeks ago, a race where he was finishing fast up the stands' rail and comfortably beating the others to race on that part of the track; 1lb rise manageable but with the stalls on the stands' side there must be a query over the suitability of stall 1. |
7/2 |

4th 29 (29) |
21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Regularly runs well in big-field sprints and in fine form here in 2024, finishing a close second of 26 over C&D before winning both subsequent starts (good and soft); may be high in the weights relative to this class of race but he shouldn't be far away following a luckless Goodwood run and then slightly short of room at York since. |
20/1 |
|
7th 3 (12) |
14th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Made good progress last season, winning handicaps over C&D and twice at Ascot (5f and 6f); unplaced twice this year but looked to need the run at Southwell and then met plenty of trouble at Goodwood 12 days ago (saw little daylight between 2f out and 1f out as the race was unfolding); 1lb lower today and Oisin Murphy, who won on him at Ascot in October, takes over; still has something to prove on good to firm, albeit he had a bleak draw when well held at the Ebor meeting last year. |

5yo front-runner who has been better than ever this year, comfortably winning a handicap at York (5f, good) in May and posting a fine fifth of 26 at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); third behind fellow British raiders Cover Up and Partisan Hero over C&D in July; behind several of these at Goodwood. |

5yo front-runner who has been better than ever this year, comfortably winning a handicap at York (5f, good) in May and posting a fine fifth of 26 at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) last month; third in Group 2 Sapphire Stakes at the Curragh (5f, good to firm) recently and he could build on those last two efforts, which were on stiff tracks, now on a downhill course; respected. |

9st 3lb |
Latest three wins were over C&D (good to firm and good) and although her most recent efforts haven't been up to much (in cheekpieces the last twice, now discarded) she was thereabouts in two strong 6f handicaps here in the spring; might be all the better for a recent break and not dismissed. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Had an excellent 2024 season, winning two over 6f and close up in strong 5f handicaps (all on good or quicker ground) as well; this season hasn't been going so swimmingly, though, with fitting cheekpieces no obvious help at Ascot (back over 5f) 17 days ago; has to turn things round. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Fourth in last season's Palace Of Holyroodhouse over C&D and she's rated 2lb lower now; hasn't found her best yet in 2025 but cheekpieces are now added and the stable is in good form; interesting. |

9st 9lb |
On a hat-trick after 5f wins in conditions event at Beverley (good) and handicap at York (soft) in recent weeks; first Catterick visit but it's a track which should suit this strong-travelling, prominent racer; high on the list. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |

Won here (5f, good to firm) in June; ran two fine races at Goodwood's Glorious meeting and again when third behind Air Force One at York last month (travelled best); soft ground wouldn't have been ideal when second of six at Goodwood two weeks ago; drying conditions would be in his favour and he has the ability to get involved. |

Not the easiest to win with but he rewarded strong support when landing a Class 4 handicap at Sandown (5f, good to soft) in August; never dangerous in the Portland three weeks ago but this is more manageable and he finished second in this race last year off a 5lb higher mark. |

1st 2 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Both wins over 5f; has a hold up style which dictates that he needs things to fall right but he's now 8lb lower than when second to Roach Power at Ascot (5f, soft) last autumn and he didn't run too badly in a series final at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; considered with Roger Teal among the winners. |

Built on an eye-catching reappearance (over this C&D) when justifying strong support in handicap at Windsor (5f, good) in May; only fourth to Washington Heights in Listed event at Carlisle next time but has had a break since and may well bounce back; has real possibilities if he does. |

Never a threat after a slow start in the corresponding race 12 months ago; as good as ever when winning at Sandown and Ascot (came from well back) in August/September and two subsequent defeats excusable (ground/Listed race); 3-8 on soft or worse but might be better suited by a stiffer finish. |

At least as good as ever this year, winning handicaps at Sandown (5f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) in September; found things happening too quickly at Haydock last Saturday and she's in deeper today, but she does go really well at Ascot and the more rain that falls the better. |

Likeable mare with eight wins to her name, including at Sandown (5f, soft) and Ascot (5f, good to soft) in the last four weeks; impossible to rule out but she's gone up 13lb in total for those successes and she'll need a career best to complete the hat-trick. |
