8st 12lb |
He is a better horse on AW than turf; a much lower mark in this sphere reflects that but his 1-28 record on the grass doesn't mark him down as the likely winner of this. |

9st 4lb |
Group 3 win on soft ground in Germany in 2024; chequered history since but the drop to 5f and fitting of a tongue-tie sparked a transformation at Newcastle in June, winning the Gosforth Park Cup in game fashion; not certain to be in the same form again but he won't be far away if he is. |
12/1 |

1st 1 (10) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Smart on his day and his third at Wolverhampton (6f) last July saw him record an RPR of 115; down the field in two runs for Mick Appleby this year and he now drops to 5f for the first time in his career; tongue tied for the first time. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Finished down the field on stable/seasonal debut at Chester (7.5f) this month but that doesn't tell the full story as he ran well for a long way from his wide draw and was hampered late on; he's dropped to an attractive mark and is just the type his new trainer does very well with. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
On a losing run but he retains plenty of ability and his latest fifth of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) was another solid effort; should make another bold bid. |
4/1 |
|
5th 10 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Over two years since the last of his five wins; shaped well at Kempton on his reappearance but he hasn't built on it in two runs since; broke out of the stalls and withdrawn when favourite for a Kempton handicap last month; well drawn to attack and he lurks on a dangerous mark. |
8/1 |
|
4 (5) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Has five wins, four being on AW but losing run stretches back to May 2024; gets little respite from the handicapper but has run with credit on all three starts this year. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Coaxed back to his best by the Quinns this year, winning 6f handicaps here and at Chester and then running a fine race in a hot sprint handicap at the Curragh last month; weakened in the closing stages of the Stewards' Cup, a race in which he was 5lb well in, and a personal best is needed to defy this highest mark of his career over the shortest trip he will have tackled. |
18/1 |
|
13th 25 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Beat his 21 rivals at York in May and added a handicap at Chester (6f, good) last month; ran a fine race behind Sondad at the Curragh two weeks ago and is 7lb better off for half a length this time; officially the best handicapped horse in the race (5lb ahead of his mark) and another big run should be forthcoming. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 (20) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |

Ex-Richard Hannon; off the mark for the Quinn team when making virtually all in a 22-runner handicap at York Dante meeting (6f, good); bounced straight back from a lesser run at Thirsk when second at Ripon; made all for a 6f Chester win three weeks ago; stable won this with Mr Wagyu in 2022. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Very useful 6f AW scorer at his best; not so good nowadays but signed off for James Fanshawe with a fair third of six in 7f Wolverhampton handicap in April; more is required for new stable on a rare turf start. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won the Listed Golden Rose at Lingfield in November 2023 and landed a valuable 6f Class 2 handicap here (off 106) the following summer; has finally slipped back down the weights, giving notice of a return to form (third) in an added visor at Lingfield (7f) 51 days ago; respected. |

25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Can lead; smart 2yo who began 3yo season on a mark of 102; has shown just humdrum form in three turf handicaps, despite a sliding mark, and was way back behind Justcallmepete at Bath last week; has it to prove now. |
10/1 |
|
11th 5 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins were on turf in 2024 but he's well treated on old form and has run respectably on Tapeta (5f/6f) in last two starts; can make the running and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid back in this sphere. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (8) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Having tumbled down the weights there were signs of a possible revival when keeping on for third in a 5f handicap at Wolverhampton last week (attracted support); Rossa Ryan retains the ride and today's return to 6f won't be an issue; can't discount. |

30th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Her losing run stands at 26 but that doesn't do her justice as she's an admirable mare who has run numerous good races since that latest success; good third against male opposition at Newcastle four weeks ago; should get a good pace to aim at and more prize money would seem likely. |

0-4 this year but retains ability; there's a slight concern that she will get taken off her feet early under these conditions and others appeal more. |
25/1 |

15th 3 (18) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won the 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good) last term and fourth in the older-horse version this season; just as effective at 6f and she never got a chance to show her true colours last time at Chester; lacking course experience is not ideal but she's not dismissed. |

Close up over C&D in June (soft) and gained her first win away from Windsor when challenging 1f out and just holding on at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) on latest start; 2lb rise is no big deal but this race is way deeper. |
25/1 |

1st 6 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Three-time AW winner who sole turf success from nine starts came over this trip at Leopardstown in 2023 off 65; two runs in premier handicaps this season leave him with a bit to find although was out of the handicap last time; down in grade here and runs off his correct mark so don't rule out. |

Three-time AW winner who sole turf success from eight starts came over 7f at Leopardstown in 2023 off 65; ran better than finishing position suggests on Curragh seasonal return and entitled to improve; 4lb wrong. |

8st 9lb |
Most wins on the AW but able on turf and stayed on well for second here 20 days ago (good; might not prefer it softer); this is a better race but he'll appreciate chasing a strong pace if ground conditions are suitable; 2lb out of the weights. |
10/1 |

2nd 6 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Another who has a better strike-rate on AW (7-19) than on turf (1-17); patchy form so far this year, but has dropped 3lb below his last winning mark and this is a drop in class; stable also runs Thunderstorm Katie. |
7/1 |

8th 7 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Another who has a better strike-rate on AW than turf; not beaten far into fourth in a 5f handicap at Doncaster 17 days ago, a race where he fluffed the start; yet to shine at Ayr; one of three runners for Jim Goldie. |
