7th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 84y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Justified favouritism in Listed grade at Musselburgh (1m6f, soft) on seasonal debut, making it five wins from his last nine starts and taking overall record to 13-36; Chester record reads 112, most recently running creditably in this race 12 months ago; again likely to give his running. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner who keeps pulling out more, with 12 wins; the four last season (April-October) included career-best form; unraced here; has never won first time out but he has run creditably and is the clear form pick. |
4/5 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Front-running 6yo who keeps pulling out more, with 12 wins now to his credit, including three of his four starts at Ascot; latest was over 1m4f two weeks ago, with three 1m6f wins earlier this season; he's never been at his best over this far, admittedly with stiff tasks but it's hard to ignore that Trawlerman gave him 3lb and a comprehensive beating at York in August. |

1st 3 (8) |
25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, one over C&D; beaten a head in this race on heavy going in 2022; produced a rather disappointing show in Ascot Group 3 three weeks ago but had Listed wins over Military Academy and Mount Atlas earlier this term and holds a major chance if returning to form. |
7/2 |

2 (2) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, including this race in 2022; also won 1m4f Listed races on last three outings, including in a good scrap involving Military Academy at Goodwood in June and when that rival disappointed at Chester three weeks ago; all of his turf starts in the last six years have been on softer than good; back up to Group 3 but with leading form claims again and a tremendous attitude. |
7/4 |

1 (2) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s over 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, including two Ormondes over the extended 1m5f here; also won 1m4f Listed races at the Curragh (yielding) last November and Goodwood (soft; by a neck from Military Academy at level weights) this June, which were his last two outings; all of his turf starts in the last six years have been on softer than good, so rain may be needed. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
AW Listed winner for the Gosdens in November 2024 but he hasn't been near that form since a Listed second last June; second and third places early this year came in small fields and other options look more solid. |
20/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 1f 219y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Latest win came in a Listed race over 1m4f here for the Gosdens in November 2024 but he hasn't been at his best in five starts for this yard; needs a major revival. |
12/1 |
|
12th 1 (5) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Ex-Gosden 5yo; something of a revival with his second and third in small fields at Lingfield (1m2f) on last two outings for current yard, the latter a Group 3; bit more to prove back in the different scenario of this handicap but, with 7lb claimer recruited, he's not entirely dismissed. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
40-1 fifth of ten in the Irish Derby (1m4f, good) in June, front rank long way; it's a concern that his rating that day is well in advance of his others, and also that he was beaten so far in the storm at Glorious Goodwood on latest outing, but he needs a second look with tongue tied first time. |
8/1 |

31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Belied his 40-1 odds with an apparently good fifth in the Irish Derby and new rating gives him a leading chance in this field; however, may be flattered by that result; no match for unbeaten stablemate Amiloc in Listed grade at Goodwood (1m3f) the time before; not entirely solid. |

3rd 7 (3) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won a novice and three Ascot 1m4f handicaps on varied ground last June-September; creditable second of five in Ascot Group 3 on final outing; none of that form is near what should be required to win this race but he brings potential starting this second season. |
14/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won a novice and three C&D handicaps on varied ground on his last four starts; latest was a big prize on soft, which he took when the first two drew clear; this race demands a hefty dose of further improvement and Hamish looks the stable first string, but this is a highly progressive 3yo. |
9/2 |
|
1st 6 (7) |
6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Trainer has won three of the last four runnings of this handicap and is represented by a progressive gelding whose two handicap wins have come over C&D (good; good to firm); only scraped home at the Shergar Cup but did well to win at all having pulled hard under an unfamiliar rider; probably still well handicapped off 4lb higher and Cieren Fallon knows him well; unraced on slow ground. |
