15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Listed winner (6f) on AW; showed himself to be smart on turf too with a 7f handicap win at Newmarket last month; wouldn't judge him harshly on his Bunbury Cup defeat five weeks ago, racing away from the main action and still in front 1f out; 4lb lower today and he looks a big player for last year's winning connections. |

10th 1 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Respectable fifth in this year's Victoria Cup; prevailed last Saturday to take C&D record to 2-2 and overall strike-rate to 7-23; incurs 6lb penalty but Conor Whiteley takes off a useful 5lb; major player. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner who scored on the other course here (1m, good) in May; hasn't hit the same level in four subsequent runs but he was not beaten far at Thirsk last time and he ties in with Tuscan Hills on that form; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets the breaks. |
12/1 |

7th 10 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Campaigned mostly at the Newmarket tracks this term, winning in May and respectable third last time; has shown versatility in the past but looks weighted to the hilt off current mark and this step back up in class adds to the difficulty. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (10) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Well beaten at Epsom on Oaks day and he still had work to do when his path was blocked late on over this C&D three weeks ago; however, before those he won in good style on the other Newmarket course (1m, good) and he won this race in 2024 (good to soft); capable of having a say. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
His last win was was in 2023 but that was a Group 3 event and he went close behind Where's Freddy over C&D (good to firm; 3-1 favourite) 13 days ago; on same mark here and he's a big player if he can repeat that form; visor added. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
On a three-year losing run and nothing like the force of old but his current mark reflects that and this is a good bit easier than the two handicaps he tackled in the spring; no surprise were this class dropper to go well with his yard among the winners. |
8/1 |
|
12th 29 (24) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Two-time Group winner over 7f but is on a near three-year losing spell and current mark reflects that he's not the force of old (admittedly showed bits of useful form in 2025); needs to step up on reappearance effort; failed to shine in the last two runnings of this contest. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Has led; won sole 2yo start (7f, AW); well held when attempting 6f at Leicester in May and he didn't look to be crying out for a return to this trip when plugging on into fourth of eight at Newmarket (7f) in August; could be tough against the specialists; blinkers fitted. |
14/1 |

4th 6 (6) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Showed the immediate benefit of surgery with a career-best third at Haydock (7f, good; same mark), where he was keen under restraint but kept on; enters the reckoning. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 3 (7) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won sole 2yo start (7f, AW); three runs this year, with a fair sixth at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last time on handicap debut; improvement needed but he's been gelded since and his trainer has won the last two runnings; interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won 2yo debut but 0-14 since and his form has been rather mixed; close third off this mark over C&D (good to firm) on penultimate start is the big plus point this year; slowly away when no show over 7f latest; hooded last five starts in 2025 and now tries cheekpieces. |
12/1 |
|
11th 7 (2) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Successful over C&D on 2yo debut; 0-13 since but ran encouragingly at Windsor (6f) most recently, after a spell at Meydan; returns to this venue with a fighting chance off current mark. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 11 (8) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
0-12 since his wide-margin debut win as a 2yo but he ended 2025 with some good runs and went close in Dubai in December (6f, good to firm); his last two runs at Meydan weren't his best but a break may have freshened him up and he is on a dangerous mark. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Returned to form to win over here over 7f a week ago, beating six rivals; a 5lb penalty still leaves him on a handy mark based on last year's form and he's relatively unexposed on the AW; contender with the step back up to 1m no concern. |
3/1 |
|
6 (5) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
On a reduced mark but he's been well held in his last five runs and is now 0-17 since his last win in August 2024; withdrawn after refusing to enter the stalls at Kempton last week, but he was 7-2 at the time. |
11/2 |

5 (3) |
10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a reduced mark but he's not been on top form in 2025; drops back down in grade today but others are more appealing for win purposes. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has won over 1m but recent efforts at 6f and after his C&D win he fared best of those held up when third last week; this could pan out more favourably for him. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Ended a long long losing run when coming from rear for a narrow success over C&D (good to firm) last week; that was a surprise at 18-1 but he's only 3lb higher under a penalty and two of his three wins have been at this track; respected. |
3/1 |
|
1st 7 (9) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
On a two-year losing spell and isn't totally solid on 2026 efforts but the latest is best forgiven (got no sort of run; second start for new yard); attractively treated on best form and is a course winner. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
5yo who was a big improver at the start of this season, winning a handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) then the Group 3 Chartwell Stakes at Lingfield (7f, good to firm); however, it appears as though she may have gone off the boil on her last two outings; carries a 3lb penalty this afternoon. |
14/1 |

5th 5 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Always behind in the boiling cauldron of a Royal Ascot handicap last week; progressive otherwise and still has good stats, being 9-22 overall, 2-3 this term and 6-11 over 7f (1-1 over C&D); however, has to overcome a 3lb penalty for the Group 3 win achieved against her own sex in May. |
