2nd 9 (12) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
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). |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Strong handicap form over 7f last summer, winning at Goodwood and Chepstow as well as finishing second in a 20-runner event at Ascot (all when wearing blinkers); still feasibly weighted on that form and he went without headgear when down the field in the Lincoln; the blinkers return today and he's a leading contender. |
7/1 |

16th 4 (14) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Thrived in 7f handicaps last season when blinkers went on; however, he failed to shine when tackling 1m last term and reappears minus any headgear (tried cheekpieces when last seen; down the field); others preferred. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
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. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Well beaten on reappearance at Newcastle (6f, AW) 30 days ago and needs to be an entirely different proposition today; however, he's on a competitive mark on last season's best efforts and his C&D form figures read 123, with all three of those runs coming in cheekpieces (which go back on). |

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. |

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. |
25/1 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
The long-delayed return asks a pointed question but he has often won and gone well after shorter breaks than today and his 7f career includes wins in a top Ascot handicap and two Listed races (all on good); his claims can't be entirely waved away but he needs to be as good as ever to win. |

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. |
8/1 |
|
32 |
19th Sep 2025 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb
|
Got no run when favourite at Thirsk a fortnight ago and a line can be put through that race; effective in a big field and has an each-way shout on this year's best form (on various ground); wears first-time cheekpieces. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won two in a row last May/June (6f, soft/good to firm) when this visor first went on and he ran well to be placed on his final two outings last autumn; each-way claims if fully tuned up for this reappearance outing. |
11/1 |
|
6 (9) |
3rd Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Not yet truly exposed over 6f since visored, winning on two occasions (on good to firm and soft) and first home on his side for the two defeats, over C&D and in the Ayr Silver Cup; the handicapper may not have weighed him up yet and he can be a big threat. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 6 (14) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Has won on good to firm and soft this year; a big improver since visored over 6f, winning in fine style at Ascot in May then followed up at Epsom; he lost nothing in defeat when first home in his group at Ascot in July on his latest 6f start but was said to have never travelled during an abortive 7f attempt at Chepstow since; much respected if recapturing earlier 6f form. |

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. |
33/1 |
|
14th 6 (10) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Two 6f wins at Kempton this winter and he ran as well as he ever has when a close fourth at Lingfield five weeks ago (behind Ferrous and Lakers); this stiff 6f should suit and he can make another bold bid. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
3-3 on AW, showing improved form to win a useful race at Kempton 16 days ago (6f); 3lb rise not beyond him and he should give it a good go in his hat-trick bid. |

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. |
25/1 |
|
10th 2 (10) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Useful on his day and he was a good second at Newbury last October (7f, soft) off this mark; effective over C&D but an extra furlong probably wouldn't go amiss. |
