6th 4 (4) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
11-time turf winner who won by 4l at Lingfied in July but he's been a long way below that form in three subsequent runs; this return to 6f is no problem but he needs a major revival on belated Tapeta debut; blinkers reapplied. |

Ran away with a turf handicap here (5f, good to soft; blinkered first time) in July; two heavy defeats have followed and this looks a warm race in which to try and bounce back; no accessories this time. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; ran right up to his best when second of ten in a Shergar Cup race at Ascot (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago; runs off the same mark but this looks a deeper event. |
20/1 |
|
2nd 8 (1) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; he didn't run badly off his revised mark at Epsom on Derby day and last week's Stewards' Cup was always going to be a tough assignment; this is more suitable but others look better treated. |
14/1 |

Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; he didn't run badly off his revised mark at Epsom on Derby day but it would be a surprise if he were up to a task of this magnitude. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Better effort when fourth of ten at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) this month and now 2lb below his last winning mark, but he is just 1-42 in Britain. |
6/1 |
|
4th 10 (12) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Low-key run at Newmarket (6f, good) 12 days ago; return to a longer trip is in his favour but others are more appealing for win purposes. |
20/1 |
|
11th 12 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Only 1lb higher than for his Lingfield (1m, AW) in January; up and down since that success and could prove vulnerable back sprinting. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won at Goodwood (5f, good) in the spring and has remained in form, second of seven at Lingfield last time; no obvious reason why he won't be thereabouts again but he's fully exposed after 52 starts. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 1-20 on turf but that win was off 1lb lower at Goodwood in May; hasn't matched that form in three subsequent runs but he ran into a well-handicapped rival when a 4l second at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last time; now drops back into a Class 5 event and he's not ruled out. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Recent form includes a turf success but he's only 1-19 in this sphere and still has a much better strike-rate on AW; below par at Brighton last time. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Prominent racer; dropped right away at Lingfield last week (6f) and the widest stall won't make life easy this time. |
16/1 |
|
9th 4 (3) |
14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made all to win a 6f handicap at Ripon in April off this mark; dips back into Class 5 company for the first time since; well drawn to attack and she's not ruled out. |
8/1 |
|
6th 5 (11) |
26th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
3yo whose best efforts this season have come here, winning over C&D (good) in April and going close over C&D (good) in June; fourth of 15 over C&D ten days ago and she's firmly in calculations. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His losing run is up to 16 and his form has gone the wrong way this year, but he's 3lb lower than when beaten just a neck at Lingfield (5f, AW) in June and he won this race in 2024; not discounted. |
5/1 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winner over this trip but doesn't run over it often now, all starts this year having come over 5f; continues to tumble down the weights but has struggled in two runs back on turf latterly and others make more appeal. |
10/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |

Has six wins to his name but yet to score for his current trainer; best recent effort when runner-up at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month; not out of this. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Still 4lb higher than when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in May but has been pretty consistent since rejoining Tony Carroll in March and probably won't be far away. |

10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has plenty of handicapping experience but better than ever when winning quite convincingly over C&D (good to firm) recently; on a career-high mark against stronger opposition but it's not too late for him to do better. |
9/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Resumed winning ways at Yarmouth (6f) in May but he's twice failed to build on it, only seventh of 11 at Ascot (6f) 17 days ago; needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
7th 7 (13) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two 6f wins last year and registered a third when coming out on top in a good tussle at Yarmouth (good to firm) in late May; up to this grade and caught a little wide when last of seven at Salisbury ten days ago, however. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Sole success came in an AW novice at Kempton in March last year when trained by Eve Johnson Houghton; has made the frame on all three AW starts for current trainer this year and won't be far away if she can replicate that form back on turf. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Outsider of the field both starts for Scott Dixon but didn't run like it, managing fourth then a front-running third; latest defeat was at the hands of the prolific Yorkshire Glory and Aisling Oscar; major claims on this drop in grade. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
1-13 for Eve Johnson Houghton, the win coming in a Kempton novice (6f, Polytrack) last March; reappeared with a respectable effort on her stable debut at Southwell last month but she needs to build on that and this is her first run at this track. |

9st 4lb |
She's struggled to get competitive in handicaps since her Listed near-miss at Bath (5f, good) in April but she's dropped down the weights and the return to slow ground could prove to be a major plus; not ruled out. |
25/1 |
|
14th 9 (14) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Four wins on extremes of going in 2025, including over C&D, but she surpassed them all in form terms when just losing out in a Listed race at Bath in April; had a rough ride from the handicapper as a result and she's found it all too much since; up against it. |
25/1 |
|
12th 4 (2) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Won three sprints last year on extremes of going; however, a near-miss at Listed level in April put paid to her handicap mark and others look better treated. |

Veteran who popped up at Newbury (6f, good to soft) in June; hasn't matched that in four runs since but is back down to that winning mark; still needs to turn the ship around. |

8th 11 (9) |
8th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Veteran who popped up in a Class 5 at Newbury in June (6f, good to soft); hasn't matched that in three runs since and although he's often run well here, he's yet to win at the track; minor money perhaps his best hope. |
16/1 |
|
4th 1 (2) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Understandably not the force of old now a 10yo but he registered the ninth win of his long career when beating ten rivals at Newbury (6f, good to firm) in June; held in a couple of Class 4 events since but he's won here in the past and is not ruled out on this drop back in grade. |

Justified favouritism at Lingfield (6f; soft) in June, that his highest ever winning mark (72); 12th of 26 (beaten 7l) in a race a number of these rivals contested at Goodwood recently; prospect of rain helpful, with Callum Rodriguez booked. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Remains on a losing spell that goes back to his novice double in 2024 and has regressive results since switched to classified level, albeit perhaps needed latest run (back from break). |
11/1 |
|
8th 2 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual 5f novice winner in December 2024 but well below that form level these days, faring no better with a tongue-tie added when last seen in March (it's retained here); record when returning from a break is mixed. |
12/1 |
