Now 5lb lower than for his 1m win here in January and there have been excuses for several of his defeats since; plausible outsider. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Defied a 5lb higher mark in the 7f handicap at this meeting three years ago and scored over 1m on AW in January; has lost his form, most recently finishing last in the Newbury event won by Classic; further Royal Ascot glory looks unlikely. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Dual winner at 1m who was dropped back down to 7f when he scored at Newmarket (good) in May; stayed on for third over that trip on the July course a fortnight ago so this first start at 6f is something of a surprise. |

3rd 4 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Not straightforward but he is a capable performer on his day and he landed his first turf success when beating Silver Ghost on the Rowley course six weeks ago, again hanging right under pressure but full value for the neck winning margin; up 3lb but has the ability to feature. |
6/1 |

0-7 on turf and his best form (and both wins) has come on AW; below par on AW on last two starts and arrives with something to prove. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
An ideal type for this race having won the Victoria Cup over C&D in 2024 and 2026, both times off 5lb lower on good ground (lightly raced in between and latest occasion was only his third run for new yard); still favourably treated on historical data; good credentials. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (26) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Seen only twice, both times on AW, last term for new yard; made a winning reappearance off current mark in this contest (on good ground) two years ago on first start during a brief spell with Charlie Fellowes; fighting chance in repeat bid, assuming he's in top form. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Just 1lb higher than for his Victoria Cup win last term (first run for Charlie Fellowes); midfield at Royal Ascot (Group 1) one month later; absent since a disappointing run on soft ground last September; cheekpieces worn on his last 11 starts are left off on today's stable debut (same owners); interesting, especially if backed. |

Well suited by slow ground; attractively handicapped and his last two runs have both been promising, meeting trouble before finishing off strongly at Newcastle last month; high on the list. |
4/1 |

4th 9 (10) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

1lb lower than for his Doncaster win 12 months ago (7f, soft); several creditable runs in handicaps this season but he will need to pull out a bit more if he's to come out on top. |
12/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Not troubled the judge this season but hasn't been running badly, last time behind Native Warrior on the AW in late June; a triple winner on ground softer than good so connections have no doubt been waiting for some rain; worth considering. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Unbeaten as a 2yo but losing run now stands at 15; shaped well over C&D on his stable debut in June (wind op beforehand) but he hasn't built on it twice since; edging down the weights but others appeal more. |
14/1 |

11th 7 (9) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Close fourth of 13 at 40-1 on stable debut over C&D in June; failed to build on that at York next time but he continues to edge down the weights and is not discounted on just his second AW start. |

5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
A dual 7f scorer for Archie Watson in 2025 and he signed off for the yard with a solid sixth at Kempton (7f) 57 days ago; since changed hands for 20,000gns and he can't be discounted for his new handler. |
14/1 |

6th 6 (12) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer; the winner of three of his nine runs for Archie Watson, including two wins and a second from three AW starts; bumped into a promising filly at Kempton six weeks ago but his subsequent 3lb rise won't help matters. |
7/1 |
|

19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Has lacked consistency on turf but remains unexposed on AW and his C&D success last week took record in this sphere to 2-2; highly respected under 5lb penalty kept to this scenario. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Useful on his day but losing run is mounting up and two duck eggs this year leave a question mark over his current form; chance partly depends on how well he responds to the removal of usual cheekpieces. |
7/1 |
|
14th 20 (21) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Showed his effectiveness over a straight 1m when beaten a nose in the 2025 Lincoln at Doncaster (good to soft) and he's now 3lb lower; several respectable efforts afterwards, and 6f on good ground was probably too sharp on his sole outing in Bahrain over the winter; certainly well handicapped on best form and well worth a market check after 106 days off. |
20/1 |
|
15 (22) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
0-10 on turf but he went very close behind Godwinson in the Lincoln (1m, good to soft) in March and is also effective on good ground; denied a clear run when keeping on for a close seventh of 12 at Newcastle (7f, AW) three weeks ago and he's one to be interested in now back up in trip. |

Gained last three wins on Newcastle AW; ran respectably back there on latest start; has bits of encouraging turf form this term but it's over two years since his last success in this sphere. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (10) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Well suited by conditions and his last-gasp C&D win in March came off just 2lb lower; creditable efforts off his lower turf mark more recently; may find a few of his younger rivals better treated. |
10/1 |

4th 6 (8) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |

Rated much lower on turf (2-20) than on the AW (5-22); hasn't run at all badly in his last two starts on grass including when eighth of 28 in the Victoria Cup; each-way claims down another 2lb. |

In good form last June, winning off this mark over C&D (good) before an excellent second at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm); some fair efforts this season and on a good mark now; not out of it. |
4/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Beaten on his last 14 starts and he's been expensive to follow in that time, but he was denied a clear run at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month and again ran well when fifth of 19 at York (7f, good) last time; could be thereabouts. |
11/2 |
|
5th 5 (13) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

His losing sequence is up to 13 but he's 4lb lower than when runner-up at Royal Ascot last June and was denied a clear run when third at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last Saturday; bang there if getting the breaks. |

9st 10lb |
Failed to beat a rival in Group race last time; seemed to run well in the Victoria Cup over C&D in his most recent handicap attempt but was always favourably positioned the way the race went and needs to prove he can back up the form; still on career-high mark. |
25/1 |

8th 4 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
5yo who won three handicaps last year (including on heavy ground) and has been better than ever in such races this season, finishing second at Musselburgh (7f, good to soft) then fourth of 28 in the Victoria Cup at Ascot (7f, good); however, he has something to find against today's opponents. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (23) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Good second at Musselburgh (7f) with reappearance under his belt but is by no means certain to go one better off 103 in this deep field; has gained all handicap wins off marks in in the high-90s and still needs to prove he can break the triple-digit barrier. |

21th 8 (19) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Took a step forward on the AW earlier in the year, at 7f and 6f, but he didn't make his turf debut until never involved in a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good) in May; comes from a line of superb turf sprinters but this is a difficult first handicap on grass, to put it mildly. |
66/1 |

7th 4 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
In good form on the AW this year, winning a handicap at Lingfield (7f) in February and running creditably when fourth in similar event at Newcastle (6f) on Good Friday; has shown he's up to Listed level but this is still a warm race in which to be making his debut on grass. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Excellent second in this race (good to firm) last year, when conceding weight to a winner who went on to better things; back to form when outstaying Shallow at Yarmouth (7f, good; similar terms today) in April and has since run well in a Group 3; early stumble cost her at Musselburgh since but she shouldn't be far away back in a handicap. |

Won a handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good) in April and another big run, despite an awkward start, when third in the Group 3 Chartwell Stakes at Lingfield last month (7f, good to firm; 1l behind runner-up Magic Basma); also effective on good to soft (yet to run well on soft); she could be thereabouts. |

3rd 4 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |

Tough mare who won two handicaps around this time last year, scoring at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and following up at Goodwood (7f, good) 18 days later; registered plenty of other good efforts last term and was back on the scoresheet with narrow win at Yarmouth (7f, good) 11 days ago; something to find on the figures but she's the type to make her presence felt. |
