10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
0-10 but he has regularly been placed and is running well this season, including when beaten 2l for fourth of five at Sandown (1m1f, good) four weeks ago; yard in fine form and he's got each-way claims again. |
12/1 |
|
4th 6 (2) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Similar type to The Joker, being a consistent maiden who ties in with Law Court on last-time running (over 1m at Newbury in first-time cheekpieces); again should give his running. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 10 (5) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Maiden who is proving consistent and ran creditably at Ascot (1m, good) most recently; should give his running but chance of winning largely depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 10lb |
Third to Dickensian over C&D in May, stern assignments in Royal Ascot Group 1s since; sole win came in Yarmouth nursery and he's still in deep waters despite this apparent drop back in grade; cheekpieces replace visor. |
12/1 |
|
12th 2 (19) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Third in Group 3 Cornwallis (5f, good) and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (5f, firm) on final two 2yo starts, and also third in Listed race at York (5f, good) last month; respectable midfield finish in King Charles III Stakes here (5f, good to firm) on Tuesday but needs a career best today. |
40/1 |
|
16th 24 (20) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Best 2yo form when dropped to 5f on final two starts, signing off with a close third of 12 in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (firm); he needed to progress as 3yo to have a chance today but that hasn't happened, so the first-time visor has a big job to do. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Three starts, best effort when a close and closing third of 11 from off the pace in novice at Nottingham (1m, good to soft; 20-1) three weeks ago; retains potential and should be placed at the least. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 6 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Similar level of form in maidens at Glorious Goodwood and Newbury, gelded prior to keeping-on tenth in big field over 1m latest; still open to improvement, albeit his ideal scene may be handicaps. |
14/1 |
|
10th 1 (22) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Absent and gelded since 50-1 seventh of 12 in Glorious Goodwood maiden (7f); looks the type to find peak stride when handicapping. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Improved form in 1m2f handicaps at the other Newmarket course on his first two starts this term, bossing a five-runner race (good to firm) impressively on second occasion; doing the same off this 8lb higher mark in 16-runner race at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm; 12-1) wasn't possible but he led entering straight until over 1f out and wasn't at all discredited in seventh (Princling fifth); could get run of the race this time and is one to consider. |
7/1 |
|
7th 3 (16) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Mixed bag as 2yo but improved form in two 1m2f Newmarket handicaps this term; had it all his own way up front in five-runner race last time (good to firm) but stretched clear impressively from over 1f out; 8lb higher in a much more competitive affair today, but runner-up Sahara King went close in the always-strong London Gold Cup next time; considered. |
10/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Pretty useful in two of his five efforts as 2yo; second favourite for handicap/seasonal debut over C&D (good) 18 days ago but weakened in the final 1f into fourth of eight; that was creditable but he needs to build on it. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Encouraging runs behind Group-class horses last season; back from a lengthy break and a gelding operation when the workmanlike winner of a big-field maiden at Newbury (1m, good) that's produced a stack of winners; unexposed and respected. |
16/1 |
|
1st 6 (15) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Finished fourth in 7f events at Newbury and Goodwood won by colts who have since performed well at Group 1 level; gelded since; may take a step forward. |
8/1 |
|
7 (3) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
280,000euros breeze-up 2yo; finished just behind a subsequent winner when fourth at Newbury (7f, good to firm), having kept on takingly after being held up; a beaten favourite that day but every chance he can raise his game here. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Emphatic winner of handicap debut on Southwell AW (6f) in March; found Group 3 and Listed races too daunting on next two starts and he made only modest late headway into mid-division over 5f at Royal Ascot (40-1; without regular hood, as today); return to 6f should suit but the same applies to others from that race. |
22/1 |
|
14th 8 (13) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Useful 2yo and took his form to a new level with an emphatic win at Southwell (6f, AW) in March; a refusal to settle has compromised him in Group 3/Listed events on his last two starts but this mark is surely in range judged on that Southwell win and he is interesting now dropped to 5f for the first time; hooded every time except today. |
20/1 |
|
9th 7 (6) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Talented, albeit is a shade quirky, and made a mockery of his mark in Southwell handicap (6f, AW) on reappearance; eventually dropped away in Ascot Group 3 since but may still have more to offer; not written off. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 0lb |
Goodwood maiden winner on debut last August (7f, good to soft); creditable run in Group 1 at Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; moderate efforts first two runs this term; back on song when winning a 1m1f Listed race at Navan (Geryon promoted to second); lost a lot of ground at the start when failing to confirm form with Geryon at the Curragh last time. |
3/1 |
|
6th 8 (8) |
28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Goodwood maiden winner on debut last August (7f, gd-sft); creditable run in Group 1 at Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; moderate efforts first two runs this term, but back on song when in front of Hotazhell and Geryon in Listed contest at Navan three weeks ago; needs to improve further to beat Purview, but solid place claims if backing up that last run. |
5/1 |
|
1st 11 (3) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Maiden winner at Goodwood; best juvenile form when staying on from off the pace to take fourth behind Pierre Bonnard in Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; shaped as if he needed the race when fourth of seven in a Listed event at Newmarket (1m1f, good) on return; eased when beaten in Derby Trial at Lingfield; should be competitive now. |

Initially promising but hasn't kicked on in handicaps (0-3; 7f-1m) and blinkers are removed after last time; bit to prove, though getting back on fast ground is a likely plus. |
16/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |

Fair maiden who wasn't discredited with fifth of nine in 1m Nottingham handicap 18 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb with blinkers added. |
12/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Gelded since finishing last of seven at Southwell (1m, AW) on handicap/seasonal debut; may do better returned to turf with the outing under his belt, having shown some promise in this sphere as a 2yo. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Easily won Chester novice (7.5f, good to firm) last August on third and final 2yo start and reappeared with midfield finish in the Italian 2,000 Guineas, before 2l fourth of 30 on handicap debut in the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm); firmly in calculations now against older horses. |
7/1 |
|
4th 28 (32) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Made it third-time lucky last season in a 7.5f novice at Chester (good to firm); however, he was only seventh in the Italian 2,000 Guineas (good) in his comeback race and that casts a shadow over his prospects. |
40/1 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Built upon the promise of his debut fifth at Newbury (6.5f, good) when occupying the same position at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to soft), where he kept on well; he's the type who should have more to offer and today's extra yardage is a likely positive; he's one to consider. |

Wootton Bassett gelding who is on the up since sent handicapping, beaten just a head when second (Buckland Belle a neck behind) over C&D 19 days ago; a player nudged up 1lb. |

2nd 5 (1) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

No great progress in AW handicaps from last October to January but he found a powerful finish in his first turf run at this level when winning over C&D (good) last week; this could take more winning under a penalty (goes up the same amount in future) but he's open to improvement. |

9st 6lb |
Struggled at huge odds in his qualifying runs but was 9-4 favourite on nursery debut at Brighton (7f, good to firm; cheekpieces added) last month and he didn't get much luck before finishing a close fourth of six; that was promising and he's a big player back up in trip. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Always behind in two maidens (6f/7f) at Glorious Goodwood, achieving two duck eggs; may do better at this level but essentially looks one for nurseries shortly. |
