20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a solid record and steadily progressive RPRs; won well at Thirsk (good) on penultimate start, then finished 1l second to Monoceros at Haydock (again over 1m; soft) latest; in the mix. |
13/2 |

2nd 4 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Likeably consistent and overcame a wide draw with ease at Thirsk 22 days ago (1m, good) to earn this 9lb higher mark; that asks questions of him back in a higher grade, but the chances are he's very progressive; fine on soft ground. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent dual winner who coped well with the rise in class when pushing a well-handicapped winner all the way at Ayr six days ago (1m, good; goes on all surfaces); not ideally drawn out in 15 but plenty to like otherwise. |

Has cut little ice in a pair of bumpers and 1m novices at Pontefract and Thirsk this summer; very hard to make a case for. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Unraced on ground softer than good; 4-4 in his first season last year; opened his 2026 account with success in the Summer Mile (Group 2) at Ascot and was beaten only a neck by Rayif in the Marois at Deauville despite rider dropping his whip over 1f out; made the frame in the Lockinge and Queen Anne earlier on; may still have a Group 1 in him. |
11/1 |

1st 8 (3) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
4-4 in his first season last year, culminating in Group 2 win at Newmarket (1m, good to firm); back to somewhere approaching that form when third to Notable Speech in the Lockinge at Newbury (1m, good) and respectable fourth to Ten Bob Tony in the Queen Anne here (straight 1m, good to firm) since, keeping on again after getting outpaced; likely to go well but More Thunder was ahead of him on those last two starts. |
3/1 |
|
4th 9 (5) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
4-4 in his first season last year, culminating in Group 2 win at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) where he won going away from Opera Ballo; unable to confirm placings with that opponent at Sandown on reappearance but wasn't disgraced and he subsequently ran better, behind Notable Speech and More Thunder, in the Lockinge at Newbury; may yet tap back into his tremendous earlier progress and prove that he can still become a top miler; remains of major interest. |

3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Unexposed colt who has been runner-up in two starts since returning from an absence, most recently on handicap debut at Epsom (8.5f, good) nine days ago, pulling clear of the rest with the winner; returns to AW and he's a contender off the same mark. |
11/4 |
|
2 (3) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
150,000euros yearling; unexposed colt who showed promise in novice events, including a clear second behind an impressive winner at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) 23 days ago; looks on fair mark now switched to a handicap and he's an interesting contender. |
5/2 |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Raced freely on debut last autumn; showed similar form when 3l fourth of 12 at Lingfield (1m, AW) three weeks later; bred to be useful and commands respect after nearly nine months off. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Returned to form with a pretty good third here (1m5f, soft) 11 days ago and he also ran some good races in defeat over 2m in July; sole win came on heavy ground and he's one to consider. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 7 (3) |
18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
His sole win came on heavy ground and an each-way case can be made judged on his placed efforts at York (2m, good to firm) in July; however, not at the same level on his last two starts and was beaten a long way back at York (2m, good to soft) most recently; needs to bounce back. |
20/1 |
|
9th 13 (6) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Raced prominently when placed twice in a row over C&D (good to firm) in July; 4lb out of the handicap today and finished held in fourth at Musselburgh (2m2f, good) recently, having failed to settle in midfield, but he might have an each-way shout back here; sole win came on heavy ground. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Green on both starts for Harry Charlton but there was some encouragement in his fifth of seven at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) on the second of them; has since changed hands for 14,000gns and joined a shrewd stable; not ruled out, especially if the market speaks in his favour. |
14/1 |

24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Barely sighted when 50-1 for a 1m maiden at Newbury and sported a hood that day as well; hard to trust after that start, but has been gelded in the meantime. |
10/1 |

4 (9) |
12th Apr 2025 Good 1m 0f 7y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
70,000euros yearling; first foal out of a Spanish 7f-1m winner, half-sister to winners High Strung (Listed-placed 8.5f 2yo) and Pour Vous (1m4f/1m7f); somewhat offputting to see headgear on from the outset. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-7 and well beaten in his three handicaps (1m2f, 1m and 1m2f); this season's two runs came at 100-1 after a 310-day absence; no solid claims. |
40/1 |
|
11th 5 (1) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Six-race maiden who finished well beaten his first two handicaps (1m2f/1m), latterly on this month's belated seasonal debut; needs to have taken huge benefit from that recent outing. |
33/1 |
|
9th 4 (3) |
2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Poor form (peak RPR 46); slowly away, always behind, on handicap debut at Redcar (1m2f; 66-1, beaten 32l) last October; absent since and now returns for AW debut. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Yet to beat a rival in her three runs to date, last of seven in 1m Pontefract maiden 29 days ago; needs this switch to handicaps to spark major improvement. |
