20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Unraced on soft; record of 0-7 since debut success but is heading back in the right direction, having posted form figures of 432 this term, latest effort in notable handicap at Hamilton (1m4f, good to firm); turn looks near. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has returned this season having been gelded, keeping on well for fourth at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) and doing likewise when third of 18 at Glorious Goodwood (1m2f, good); this step back up in trip looks the right move and he's high on the list. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who was not seen last year after a Group 2 at Royal Ascot; 11-2 for handicap debut on Oaks day at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) on reappearance, hanging left on the camber but making late headway into fourth of 13, up with his best form; has the same mark today and clear chance he can build on that performance. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Never figured at Royal Ascot then looked a non-stayer over 1m6f in the Ebor; returns to calmer waters and drops back in trip, so may tap back into earlier progress (AW/turf) that produced form figures of 1211. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Made debut at the end of 2024; won three of his first four starts, on last occasion a 12-runner handicap here (1m4f, good to firm) in May when he led over 2f out and narrowly saw off Stressfree; had been racing freely and prominently, so the widest draw at Royal Ascot (1m4f; just 7-1) posed a challenge but he didn't really fire behind Ethical Diamond; he was shaping up to be a serious talent before that and has now been gelded. |
16/1 |

12th 14 (22) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Not seen on a racecourse until the end of 2024 but he's now won three of his four starts; first three races were tight finishes on AW when trained by Charlie Fellowes; debut for this yard came in 12-runner handicap at York (1m4f, good to firm) five weeks ago when he narrowly saw off the challenge of Stressfree; up another 5lb today and has joined Wathnan Racing for their big meeting; has been racing freely and prominently, so perhaps the widest draw today will pose a challenge, but he's shaping up to be a serious talent. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
1m2f/11.5f novice winner who was purchased out of the Gosden stable for 58,000gns in the autumn; encouraging stable debut when second over 1m2f at Sandown three weeks ago, when he dropped some strong hints the step back up to this trip would see him in even better light; interesting. |
13/2 |

2nd 4 (8) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Returned from a year off to reach the frame in competitive 1m2f handicaps at York (good) and Newbury (good to soft) last September; sold from the Gosden stable for 58,000gns last autumn and absent for a further 287 days ahead of this return for new yard. |
16/1 |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Reserve; 5yo who has had just seven races, tailed off in C&D Group 2 here in 2024 on his only run on firmer than good; didn't spark again until gelded and finishing close up in 1m2f handicaps at York and Newbury last September; left the Gosdens for 58,000gns in October and cheekpieces are removed on this first run since; it's not the most solid profile but he's worth another go at 1m4f and isn't entirely ruled out. |

Well treated on last season's form (including here) but disappointing in the main this season; her best form has come on soft/heavy going. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Record is 2-14; best effort this term when third in suitable conditions at Chester (1m2f, soft) on penultimate start; each-way possibilities off current mark, provided she gets ideal ground (soft/heavy). |

10th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |

Pulled up (lost action) at Glorious Goodwood; resumed progress when close second over C&D (good) next time and perhaps good to soft ground was not ideal at Newbury on latest; considered. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Pulled up (lost action) at Glorious Goodwood; progressive otherwise (on good/firmer) since upped to 1m2f, winning in May/June and close second at York most recently; may do better still; shortlisted. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
8yo who made it eight wins from 48 starts when scoring on reappearance at Windsor (11.4f, good) in May; only third of seven there since (11.4f, good to firm) and may be vulnerable to younger legs today, but she's run well in the last two editions of this race and could do so again. |

3rd 6 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |

Took this in 2025 and she made a winning return over C&D last month; up 3lb but she's a likely player once more with yard going very well. |
3/1 |

1st 1 (5) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
All seven wins have been on turf and latest was over C&D last June; didn't fire in her final two runs last season but this is a drop back in grade and she won on her seasonal return in 2022 and 2023; needs a close look off dangerous mark. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 3 |

Very capable off this mark when on his game but he refused to race on final run of last season and hasn't looked overly keen to get involved this campaign. |
50/1 |

11th 6 (10) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |

4-9 over C&D including landing this race three years ago, but his starts have increasingly become a problem, flatly refusing to do so here in October; too risky. |

10th 9 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Increasing tendency to blow the start last season culminated in a refusal to race on final appearance; that was at Newbury, where he'd previously been at his best; he's contrastingly 0-6 on AW and none of his form in this sphere lives up to today's mark; probably best watched. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won a heavy-ground novice at Epsom (1m2f) last September; needs career-best form today but his running-on third of 11 over 1m2f here (good to soft) five weeks ago gave some renewed hope. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Dual novice winner last year and back to form in first-time cheekpieces when not quite getting home over 1m2f last time (runner-up won at the weekend); drops in trip with probably more to offer. |
7/2 |
|
4th 3 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Dual novice winner early last summer who's generally strugged in handicaps, including in two runs since being gelded; the drop back from 1m4f should help but this will largely come down to how he responds to first-time headgear. |
10/1 |
|
11th 3 (10) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |

Two novice wins last May/June (1m2f, good to firm) and back on track when third in handicap at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last month; down the field at Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) since on first run since being gelded but this 4yo remains lightly raced and is not written off. |

3rd 11 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Last won at Newbury (1m2f, soft) in September 2024; patchy form in nine subsequent starts includes a fifth of seven at Windsor (11.5f, good) last month; others hold stronger claims. |

5th 5 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft; all three wins have been on turf and he returned to form after a break with a near-miss at Haydock (10.4f) last month; up 3lb but he pulled clear of the third last time and is a big player if he can back that up. |

Runner-up on handicap/seasonal debut, dead-heated for first at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) next time and clearcut winner of a six-runner race at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) four weeks ago; up another 6lb but galloped on relentlessly last time as if he had more in the tank. |

Runner-up on handicap/seasonal debut at Leicester (1m2f, good to soft) in May then dead-heated for first at Lingfield (1m2f, AW; no stall used), coming clear with his fellow winner; this 3yo is open to further improvement and he's a player if handling conditions (unraced on good/good to firm). |
