18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two wins last summer and he showed spark as recently as this April; he's dropped to a dangerous mark but has failed to shine on his last three outings and arrives with something to prove. |

Well treated on the form he showed last August, including win at Haydock and close third at the York Ebor festival; absent since finishing rather tamely over C&D two months ago. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
On a handy mark on last summer's peak efforts for Hugo Palmer; ran some fair races in Dubai for new connections earlier in the year; others appeal a bit more for win purposes. |
10/1 |
|
13th 4 (9) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned mostly on good/firmer; record is only 1-11 but good seconds at Haydock (1m) and Chester (7.5f; cheekpieces applied) last month suggest his turn is near; one for the shortlist. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Ended 2025 with 1m Southwell win and largely in good nick this season, seventh of 14 in 1m Carlisle handicap last month; not ruled out from a slipping mark. |
10/1 |
|
7th 3 (14) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Six-time winner, the most recent coming on the AW at Southwell off this mark in November; runner-up off a 4lb lower mark in this race in 2024 but he hasn't threatened in three starts this year; others make more appeal. |
25/1 |

13th 2 (8) |

Course winner (1m, good) last summer and signed off 2025 with 1m success at Southwell; better effort this year when respectable seventh of 11 at Beverley (7.5f, good) a fortnight ago; may come on again. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Never involved back on turf at Newmarket last month; however, he returned with two respectable efforts on AW prior to that and the fact he's dipped to 1lb below the mark he defied at Sandown (7f, soft) last summer and was runner-up at this meeting last year make him a dangerous one to discount. |
14/1 |
|
10th 3 (5) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Soft-ground Sandown winner in August who is just 1lb higher; comes here fit after two respectable fourth-place finishes at Kempton (also 7f, AW); acts on this forecast good ground and could make his presence felt. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Successful for two previous yards and ran creditably at Ayr on debut for current stable; below par in two starts since but likely found 6f too sharp latest; returns to a more suitable distance. |
10/1 |
|
8th 8 (5) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
A ready winner at Bath (1m, firm) in April (final start for Stuart Williams); good start for Jennie Candlish when third over 1m1f at Ayr (good to firm) but not in the same form when beaten favourite at Carlisle (1m) ten days later; quite a strong traveller over those trips but whether he has the speed for sprinting remains to be seen. |
10/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
A ready winner at Bath (1m, firm) in April and, having run well over 1m2f in the past, he didn't have a problem with 1m1f when a close third, just behind Ayr Poet, at Ayr since on yard debut; remains on a career-high mark though so a shade more may be needed. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Back in form and threatening to regain the winning thread, having finished a creditable second in last two starts, latest at Epsom (8.5f, good to soft) on Oaks day; back up another 2lb but can't be ruled out. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 16 (12) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Acts on soft going; picked up a maiden here (7f, good) in July 2024 on his debut; fair run of form last year came to a crashing halt when virtually tailed off over C&D (good to soft) in September; subsequently gelded and he was back to near his best when second of 13 at Thirsk (1m, good) last time; far from dismissed. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three AW wins; 0-9 on turf but has a 7f race in him on grass on best form in the spring and had another troubled run at Beverley on Friday; has worn various aids on last two starts, goes without this time. |
11/2 |
|
11th 3 (7) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On a long losing run as he's winless since 2024; ran okay in a new hood/cheekpieces combination at Musselburgh but has another change of headgear now; others probably safer. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
On a long losing run but he looked an unlucky second over C&D in April and hasn't enjoyed the rub of the green since, short of room last 1f when fifth at Catterick (7f) last time; weighted to go well off a reduced mark with cheekpieces added (hood also refitted). |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
1-23 in Britain, the win coming from 2lb higher at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) in May; recent efforts suggest he will need to step up in order to make an impact; first-time visor joins the cheekpieces. |
14/1 |
|
4 (8) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Hasn't kicked on from a winning debut for this yard (1m; 1lb higher) and finished last on his previous AW start; others safer. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (2) |
16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Won at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) on stable debut in May but diminishing returns in three runs since and was only eighth of ten at Haydock last month; now back on last winning mark but he needs to rediscover his spark back up in trip. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Came good for Jim Goldie at third attempt, in refitted cheekpieces at Hamilton last month, and bettered that form when close third in competitive race at York (also 1m1f, good) soon afterwards; not quite at same level over the extended 1m2f at York last time but still a major player here. |
2/1 |
|
6th 7 (12) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Only his third run for Jim Goldie when scoring at Hamilton (1m1f, good) and off a 2lb rise he was a closing third over 1m1f here (good) when not assisted by his track position; bang in form and should run well. |
15/8 |
|
3rd 15 (13) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Just his third run for Jim Goldie when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Hamilton (1m1f, good) nine days ago; only nudged up 2lb and remains well treated on old form (won last year's Spring Mile at Doncaster off 10lb higher); top of the list. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Slightly resurgent on reappearance but needs to build on that effort and remains far from solid on his form for current stable; was a useful sort for previous yard. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (2) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Useful performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off in his last five starts, including on hurdling debut in August; has plenty to prove on his return and last win was almost two years ago. |
25/1 |
|
4 |
23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off on his last four starts (blinkered on latest); perhaps he'll be sweetened up by hurdling but he carries obvious risks. |
