16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 6f handicap at Kempton in January and he has run several good races since, notably a narrow defeat back at Kempton two weeks ago; Billy Loughnane retains the ride; as this 5yo showed at Ascot in May, he's a strong contender back on fast turf. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner in January off a 1lb higher mark than today's and he's posted some good efforts since, including when fifth of 18 in a 0-80 at Ascot in May; beaten about 3l when sixth at Goodwood (7f, soft) 25 days ago and now drops in grade. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 5lb |
Can miss the break and is usually ridden from off the pace; won a Brighton handicap (5.3f) by a wide margin on Tuesday for Jude Fernandes; that made it three wins from his last four starts and he is a leading player under his penalty. |
4/6 |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Scored on the AW in March and recorded his first win on turf over C&D (good) four weeks ago; tends to be slowly away but finishes strongly; holds strong claims to go in again off 4lb higher. |

1st 4 (5) |

Sole success in 12 starts came on the AW but he has run well on various surfaces on turf; has proved inconsistent since returning in February, though, and he can miss the break. |

2-2 over C&D (both in 2023) and tends to come to hand around this time of year; back on a fair mark and offered more last time, so there are positives for a yard that took this three years ago. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Three wins at both sprint trips on this course, on good to firm and good; one to keep an eye on as she's been a regular winner down the years but she came home in her own time on her recent return from a break so another run or two might be in order. |
14/1 |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Most wins have come in the second half of the year and always after a recent outing; returns from four months off and she might need a bit more help from the handicapper. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Both wins have been on AW over 6f, latest at Wolverhampton last month on his second start for this stable; flopped when favourite on his return to turf at Bath (5.5f, good) a week later and may be worth another chance back on AW. |
7/2 |

8th 1 (9) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won at Southwell for Mick Appleby in December and he made it 2-4 in cheekpieces with a dominant display at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last week; record of 0-7 on turf but he ran well in big-field handicap at York last summer and he's a major player if he can transfer his progress back to this sphere; respected under a penalty. |
5/2 |
|
1st 6 (6) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Took well to first-time cheekpieces when opening his account in December Southwell handicap; spoiled the follow-up attempt by racing too freely and subsequently left Mick Appleby for 30,000gns; had excuses when fair fifth on stable debut at Chelmsford (also 6f; Supreme King third, Lazzar behind) a fortnight ago and might emerge best of that trio this time. |

Sole win from 12 starts came in C&D maiden in May and she took her AW record to 22312 when a 4l second of nine at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 19 days ago; can go well. |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Hasn't always enjoyed the rub of the green in four turf handicaps, but hasn't been disgraced; interesting back on the AW (record 2231) and worth a second look. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (2) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made winning reappearance in a 6f fillies' maiden at Chelmsford in May; better form in handicaps on next two starts and when below par at Windsor last time it was a Class 5; could resume her progress back down in grade. |

Still consistent but hasn't won in three years and isn't as good now; just a fair comeback effort over 5f here 12 days ago in second-time cheekpieces (has often worn a visor) but won't mind going back up in trip now he's had a run. |

Wins for Heather Main came at Kempton; not at his best for this yard, including back to sprinting last time after a spell over further, and isn't obviously fancied from the outside stall. |

9th 1 (2) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins have come at Kempton (6f, Polytrack), but he has mainly been racing over further this year; quiet in first two starts for this yard (1m/7f) and although the return to this trip may suit and he drops into a Class 6 for the first time, others are more compelling. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Had to challenge wide when fourth of 11 over C&D (good to firm) in May and he went close to breaking his AW duck at Lingfield (5f) last time; has won over C&D and every chance he'll be bang there. |

Six turf wins, three in 2025; 0-22 on AW and although having a healthy pull at the weights with Desdemona on their C&D run in February he's not looked in peak form on last two starts. |

5f winner here; she was involved in tight finishes at Bath (extended 5f; good to soft and heavy) last October and over 5f here in May but more often than not she tends to run out of steam over this trip. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

On a losing run but closely matched with Lequinto on their tight encounter at Windsor last time (5f, good) when she might have won but for hanging left late on; she doesn't always do that and has to be feared. |

7th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Just 2lb above her winning mark at Goodwood (6f) in June but getting away on terms has become a problem and she was borderline reluctant to race last month; 0-6 on AW and best watched. |

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. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |

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. |
