6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
This 3yo has very much gone the right way since an AW debut success in March, including two 1m Ascot handicap wins (another excellent run there when third in Britannia at Royal meeting); caught wide and too far back when eighth of 17 in handicap at York's Ebor meeting last month and that shouldn't be taken to suggest his improvement has come to a halt; won't need to advance his form too much to make his presence felt in Group company. |
8/1 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Good effort in the Britannia at Royal Ascot is flanked by two Ascot wins, latest in big field on King George day (1m, good) when taking form figures to 123131; progressive and very solid. |

1st 8 (17) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Progressive 3yo who strolled home in a C&D handicap in May and performed even better when a close third in the Britannia here (again good to firm) the following month; that run more than justifies a further 5lb rise in the weights and he's a major player again on a course he clearly handles very well. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Failed to kick on after winning this last year (good to firm) but he returned to form in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) when runner-up at Ascot (1m, good to firm) recently; won on soft ground early in career; firmly in the mix if backing up that latest performance. |

2nd 7 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Strong handicap form last summer, runner-up in both Ascot runs (1m, straight course) before landing a valuable prize at York's Ebor meeting; only 1lb higher today after a couple of low-key runs in May; interesting with cheekpieces now given a go. |
4/1 |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Can front-run; had 1m wins at Newmarket and York last season, with two seconds at Ascot in between including the Royal Hunt Cup; makes plenty of appeal on that evidence but needs to bounce back from an underwhelming reappearance when second favourite at Newmarket two weeks ago. |

Won on this card 12 months ago and he was winning here for the third time when scoring over C&D (good to firm) in July; ran pretty well in fifth at Newmarket three weeks ago and could play a leading role back here. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Has a patchy profile but he got back near best with a strong-finishing success in a Class 2 handicap at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month; that was in a bunch finish but he's only 2lb higher and is a big player if he can repeat that form. |

Knuckled down well to justify favouritism here on reappearance but hasn't made the expected further progress; seems to stay 1m but all three successes remain at 7f; concedes weight all round; others preferred. |

Not seen to best effect when mid-division in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time out but prior to that he kept on well to make a winning reappearance at Haydock (7f, good to firm) and this very lightly raced 4yo retains potential, especially back up to 1m. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
6lb below his last winning mark and does have form on soft ground, but he finished behind four of these over C&D (good to firm) on his penultimate start and a record of 1-24 on turf does pose a question. |
16/1 |

5th 4 (8) |
19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Five of his six wins have come on AW, including C&D; last won at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in January; not so good on turf of late but he's dangerously handicapped if the switch back to AW prompts a revival. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual winner (7f/1m) who has posted some good efforts at this track, including when runner-up over this C&D in March off a 4lb higher mark; two solid runs since joining this stable and has to be considered with first-time visor replacing cheekpieces. |
4/1 |

4th 1 (6) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Useful 7f and 1m form in 2026, including when fifth in a higher grade at Sandown (first-time cheekpieces) in June on yard debut; however he's won just once in the last three years and although he showed useful form in a C&D novice as a 3yo, his AW runs since have come on Polytrack; shade to prove. |
9/1 |
|
5th 11 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Losing run is mounting up but he ran respectably over C&D most recently (final start for Charles Hills) and ties in with unexposed Raammee on that form; possibilities off same mark, provided he takes well to first-time headgear; remains with same owner. |

9st 8lb |
Won over Chester's extended 7f in May and ran well in the Bunbury Cup in July; however, he was well held in France last time and his AW record leaves a bit to be desired; needs the first-time tongue-strap (replacing cheekpieces) to have a positive effect. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Performed well (first and third) at Chester in last two turf attempts and may be capable of further progress returned to this sphere; helps to give his connections, who also run Aalto, a robust hand. |
9/1 |

7th 3 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Good effort to win a 7.6f handicap at Chester on his reappearance and he ran to a similar level when third back there (7f) four weeks ago; today's stiffer test at the trip will suit and he has shown promise on AW. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Arrived for the Britannia on the back of a hat-trick of wins, the last of them coming in the competitive Silver Bowl at Haydock (1m, good), but he met trouble at a crucial stage at the Royal meeting and his midfield run is best ignored; will be very dangerous if getting the breaks this time. |

17th 8 (33) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

All good this year and completed his hat-trick in the always-competitive Silver Bowl at Haydock (1m, good); has made a canny habit of not winning any of his races by far and could still be on happy terms with the handicapper despite a 6lb rise; a tough colt who won't be fazed by the challenge of a Britannia and he's on the shortlist for yard that won this in 2020. |

Two quick runs at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, beaten only 2l when fifth of 20 on the Wednesday (7f, good to firm) then seventh of 18 in the Golden Mile on the Friday (good to firm) when he would have been closer with a clear run; it's possible he'll be involved; unproven on slow ground. |

Ran encouragingly in a couple of races won by English Oak during his spell in Meydan and wasn't disgraced at Goodwood (7f) on Wednesday; however, still has a poor strike-rate as it's two years since his sole success; steps back up in trip/class. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Just one novice stakes win for Hugo Palmer but recorded plenty of good efforts, including when he split two subsequent Group winners in a 1m conditions race here (good) last May; didn't run badly in three of four starts in Meydan for this yard earlier in the year, but his British return from a 111-day break was underwhelming last month; might have needed that and he's not badly treated. |
