1st 7 (10) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
All three wins have come over 7f and latest was at Southwell in March; creditable third back there next time but has found it harder on turf since; has returned to the mark he defied at Southwell but has too much too prove, including stamina for 1m (remote last of four previous attempt). |
25/1 |
|
7th 11 (10) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
All three wins have come over 7f and latest was at Southwell in March; only 2lb higher than for that win but he's finished down the field in last three runs and he's the most exposed runner in this line-up; passed over. |
20/1 |

7th 11 (12) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins have come over this trip but he finished two places behind Goldwork when only seventh of ten at Ascot two weeks ago; needs a positive reaction to the first-time hood. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Beat only two rivals at Bath (1m, firm) to open his account at the ninth attempt; however, may build on that success and do better still, in keeping with his pedigree (from a family that has served his connections well); shortlisted. |
8/1 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden who has twice failed to back up March's promising Kempton fourth (1m); returning to 1m can help but vulnerable to progressive rivals. |

3rd 5 (2) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has run some solid races in handicaps at Bath this year, latest when runner-up (1m2f, good) last month; there is a good chance that this step up in trip will eke out more improvement in the search of her first win. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Third in 1m/1m2f handicaps on firm ground here on last two starts; different ground today but she has far more solid claims than most of these. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 3 (3) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Debut was much the best of three runs as 2yo; more like it again in this season's two handicaps, both over 1m here and particularly last time (firm) when always-prominent third of seven; sire suggests she will stay 1m2f; 5lb claimer is recruited; probably thereabouts again. |

3rd 4 (5) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Showed improved form in first-time blinkers when a good second at Salisbury (1m2f, good) in May and he's posted two respectable efforts since, albeit he didn't look to relish this the step up to this trip at Newmarket two weeks ago; first-time cheekpieces replace blinkers. |
7/1 |
|
5th 6 (5) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Improved form with blinkers added (they've been kept since) when second of 12 in handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, good) in May; fair front-running effort 13 days later; dam 1m4f winner and it's possible he will find extra over this new trip, but it is needed. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Improved form with blinkers added in his second handicap when runner-up at Salisbury (1m2f, good) 13 days ago; looks interesting off only 1lb higher here and he should make another bold bid. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Marked improvement is needed but he's had just four races; fifth of ten on seasonal/handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good) four weeks ago failed to match his market position but he staged something of a rally, after hanging left over 2f out, and might build on that. |
5/1 |
|
5th 8 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Some sign of ability last season over 7f and could be a different proposition now handicapping after being gelded; market useful. |
7/1 |
|
5th 4 (10) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Closely related to winners Beyond Equal (5f-6f including AW; RPR 98) and Sarsaparilla (6f 2yo; 76) and half-brother to five winners, including Simmy's Temple (US 1m including turf 2yo stakes) and Bridget's View (7f AW 2yo; 80); stable won this with the smart Ten Bob Tony in 2023, although not first time out; would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Improved effort when just denied on his handicap debut at Windsor (1m) in May and he made no mistake with an emphatic win over that C&D (also good to firm) 12 days ago; raised 10lb but he's firmly on the up and looks the one to beat. |
10/11 |
|
1st 9 (9) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Well backed when beaten just a short head at 3-1 on handicap debut over C&D (good to firm) four weeks ago; strong claims up 2lb. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 11 (5) |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Thrice-raced contender who may be capable of improvement now handicapping with Leicester reappearance under his belt. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-7 and his claims aren't compelling, but soft ground may not have suited this 3yo last time and there have been signs of promise previously; edging down the weights and things may click at some point. |
8/1 |
|
5th 8 (2) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ran his best race when second of five at Bath (1m, firm) last month, but finished last of three over the same C&D (firm) 13 days later; first-time tongue-tie needs to have a positive effect. |

By Sergei Prokofiev and out of a 7f winner (RPR 81); the yard has yet to have a Flat winner and surprise if the first one arrives here. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Hooded all starts; won a Chepstow maiden (7f, good) in May on second outing and similar form when second in a Windsor novice (1m, good to firm) last time; better is needed on this handicap/AW debut but early days. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Hooded both starts; down the field on 1m2f debut at Newbury (200-1) but his next run at Chepstow (7f, good) was in a different league as he was ridden more prominently and kept on well to get a narrow verdict; may well improve further despite the penalty. |
100/30 |
|
1st 1 (7) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Showed his inexperience when a down-the-field 200-1 shot on recent debut at Newbury (1m2f, good; hooded, as today); drops in trip and remains best watched. |
66/1 |
