11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Ran well, only a neck behind Elarak, in the 7f handicap at Royal Ascot to maintain his solid record in headgear; good second in the Victoria Cup the time before; threatening to win a big prize; shortlisted. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 9 (23) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Versatile as regards ground; has a good record in blinkers and ran well switched to a visor (retained today) last time, finishing only 1l behind The Wizard Of Eye in the Victoria Cup and taking form figures over C&D to 242; solid contender who again has frame possibilities. |
16/1 |

2nd 9 (12) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Six-time winner, including in first-time blinkers at Glorious Goodwood; close third at Haydock (7f) with reappearance under his belt, paving the way nicely for a crack at this prize; has made the frame in both C&D attempts; possibilities in new headgear (visor). |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
8yo who has been as good as ever this spring, short-headed at Musselburgh (7f, good) then second of 14 to Crimson Spirit at Goodwood (7f, good); last season's two wins came on soft ground; effective here; respected. |
12/1 |

2nd 10 (2) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Went close at Musselburgh (7f, good) last time, showing he retains full ability aged eight; dual winner at Goodwood and may remain competitive; gained last three wins on soft ground. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
0-9 on the AW, but has gone very close on Tapeta on three occasions; 2lb lower than when beaten a head in a 0-110 contest over C&D in August and if able to reproduce that sort of form he would have a good chance. |
7/1 |
|
6 (4) |
24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended his lengthy losing run when winning a 7f handicap at Haydock in July; similar form on a couple of occasions since and he ran creditably in a hot 6f handicap at York two weeks ago; one to consider back down into Class 3 company. |
9/1 |
|
17 (11) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Not the force of old (won the Group 2 Temple Stakes in 2022) but he ended a long losing run at Haydock (7f, good) in July and went down only narrowly at Newcastle in August; however, he should have fared better at Ascot last time and he's been unplaced on both his previous outings at York. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Listed win in Germany in October 2024 and went close at Sandown and Newbury last term; however, after a disappointing October he made it 0-10 for the season and this is a tough race in which to try to break his British duck. |
50/1 |
|
1 (10) |
24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Smart on the continent, including on testing ground; 0-9 for Jamie Osborne but he has run some good races, including a near miss over C&D last month; not so good at Ascot since but returning to Class 3 will be in his favour. |
12/1 |
|
9 (10) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Smart on the continent; some notable form in eight defeats for this yard, last time going down narrowly in a Class 3 at Newbury (7f, good to soft; second-time cheekpieces); however, he was behind four of these here the time before. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Landed the Victoria Cup over C&D in 2022 and hasn't had the smoothest of passages in two attempts in this contest (finished 11th that year and tenth in 2023); losing run is mounting up, however, and he doesn't look particularly solid on his form for current stable. |
33/1 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
8yo who is without a win since December 2023 but he showed spark in Dubai this winter and ran big races on his two previous visits to York; returns to a handy on a fair mark and could have an each-way shout. |
16/1 |
|
1 (6) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He's run just once this year but that was a fairly encouraging performance when fifth of nine at Chepstow (7f, good to soft) last month; he could build on that and he's on a competitive mark on last season's best efforts over 6f and 7f; effective in big-field handicaps and not ruled out. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Sixth to Kats Bob in this race 12 months ago; made a winning return at Southwell in April but disappointing at Ripon next time and needs to bounce back. |
20/1 |
|
7th 1 (1) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft ground; won at Thirsk (6f, good) last spring and recorded his second AW win on his Southwell reappearance last month; up 4lb but he still looks feasibly treated and should get a good tow into this race; key player. |
3/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with a whimper but he has slipped back down the weights as a consequence; won on last year's reappearance and also ran a fine race after a 175-day layoff in 2024 so unlikely to be lacking in fitness; one to consider. |

1st 5 (18) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |
9st 10lb |
Runner-up in the Ayr Silver Cup (6f, soft) last September when first home on his side; repeated a 2025 Epsom win (6f, soft) early last month; first of his small group when ninth in the Wokingham; generally dependable sort; stable won this in 2016. |
8/1 |
|
9th 27 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner on good to firm last May; classy handicap form when runner-up in the Ayr Silver Cup (6f, soft) last September when first home on his side, which wasn't the first time he's had a difficult track position; carries a penalty for recent Epsom win (6f, soft; his second win in that race) but no surprise if he does better again as a 5yo; respected. |
16/1 |
|
1st 8 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Versatile as regards ground; broadly consistent form last term featured a success (off 7lb lower) in this contest; likely needed his York reappearance; interesting back here with that outing under his belt. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Returned to his useful 2yo form when winning twice at Kempton (6f, AW) in the winter, but hasn't built on it and failed to beat a rival at Windsor (6f, good to firm) eight days ago; application of cheekpieces will need to bring about a resurgence. |
14/1 |
|
10th 2 (2) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Improved AW form over 6f last winter, but wasn't on his game when last seen on sand in April and he made it 0-11 on grass when beaten about 5l at Newmarket in May; may have his share of weight on balance of turf form. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
0-11 on turf with his best efforts coming on slower than good; back up in the weights after a productive AW campaign and he has enough to prove back on turf, all the more so after his tame effort at Newcastle on Good Friday. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on final two runs last year (1m, AW) and same story on his three outings this spring (6f, AW/good/good to firm); arrives with something to prove but he's 5lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (soft) last October and the return to slow ground could facilitate a major revival. |
10/1 |
|
7th 8 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Patchy overall record; didn't enjoy the smoothest of passages at Newbury two weeks ago but he was beaten over 5l at the finish; others are stronger. |
25/1 |
|
8th 3 (7) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Heavy defeats on his last three starts, including his Kempton reappearance three weeks ago; he's on a fair mark on the pick of his efforts though and this track does seem to suit him well; Tom Marquand is a notable booking for the stable (his nine rides for Stan Moore have yielded two wins, a second, three thirds and two fourths); lively outsider. |
