27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Not particularly solid on his AW form (at up to 9.5f) for current stable; gained sole win on turf (6f; off 3lb higher) but has something to prove over this new trip. |

6f win for George Scott on turf last summer; edging down the weights for current stable while suggesting he retains a fair level of ability; Rossa Ryan replaces an apprentice this time; not discounted. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won by a short head at Kempton (1m, AW) in May but he's not progressed since; ran respectably there over 7f 15 days ago and now steps back up to 1m. |

20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won by a short head over 1m here in May but he's made no further progress since; needs the return to this track to spark him back up on this drop back to 7f. |

Short-head winner on handicap debut at Kempton in May (1m AW) but has made no further progress, albeit at 1m2f; dropping back to 1m may help but others appeal more. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Front-runner who went off too fast for his own good over the extended 7f here two weeks ago and folded, which was also the case in his two previous runs; on a handy mark if he did get any freedom up front, though stamina doubts remain over quite this far. |
33/1 |

9th 2 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Front-runner who has won four times since blinkers have been added and latest was over 7f here (good) in May; well held in his last two runs (1m2f/1m) but he's now only 2lb higher than for his last win and is well drawn back at this trip; not ruled out. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Sole win (23 races) was an AW maiden in November 2024; way down the weights these days and although he was runner-up twice on AW (7f) in March and showed something here (5f) on penultimate start, others have to be higher up the list. |
10/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has the same strike-rate (1-22) as Horus and his win was in November 2024; has been up and down this year but he was runner-up twice on AW (7f) in March and he didn't get the best of runs when a respectable sixth at Windsor (5f) last time; has another switch of headgear and he could be dangerous back up in trip. |
5/1 |
|
6th 13 (6) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
AW maiden winner as 2yo but 0-20 otherwise; went handicapping off a high mark and his 3yo season was a write-off; fortunes have turned somewhat off basement marks this term but he's more persuasive on AW. |

Some promise last year but not this season and best trip remains a mystery; others safer. |
12/1 |

20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't progressed since finishing fifth at Ayr (7f; blinkered) on debut in September and he failed to beat a rival home at Doncaster (1m2f; first-time tongue-tie) 27 days ago; back to 7f with returning blinkers added. |
18/1 |
|
9 (9) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Some promise in three 7f novices, albeit hasn't progressed; it's still early days and he's a possible improver upped to 1m2f on his handicap debut in a first-time tongue-tie but concerning to see him taken out on account of unsuitable (soft) ground recently. |

11-race maiden; short of his best on his last two starts and others appeal more for win purposes. |

7th 7 (5) |
27th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Hindered by a shortage of room at Brighton last time; has won at Goodwood and Newmarket this summer but faces a stiffer task off current mark upped in class. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Showed career-best form when leading close home at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last month and has now won under Oliver Carmichael on two of his last three outings; ought to cope with the undulations here and can make his presence felt again. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Most of his handicaps on AW, winning three at 7f and 1m, but the return to turf is working quite well of late, gaining a first win on the surface at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) in June then checked in quite a promising run at Sandown (1m, good to firm) since; can be competitive off the same mark. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Placed once in ten starts, when third of eight at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) three runs back; while 3l defeat at Wolverhampton last time was respectable when upped to 9.4f, and his dam won at up to 11.4f, others preferred. |
7/1 |

5th 12 (10) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Placed once in nine starts when third of eight at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) on his penultimate outing; needs to find more for the longer trip, but his dam won at up to 11.4f so that is possible. |
12/1 |
|
9 (1) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-8; one of his better efforts when third of eight here (7f) ten days ago; down another 1lb, but he still needs more in the returning cheekpieces. |
11/2 |
