1st 2 (20) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Has a progressive profile and made it three wins from eight attempts when easily making all at Newmarket (1m, good to soft) last November; subsequently gelded; a 10lb rise means he'll need another personal best but he's a low-mileage 4yo who may have more in the tank. |

1st 3 (9) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Low-mileage 3yo who returned with cracking thirds in 1m1f/1m Goodwood handicaps in August; didn't find much after moving up looking a threat at Newbury (7f, good to soft) last month but the Goodwood efforts are solid and he's given another chance. |

21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Ended 2025 with a pair of 1m2f wins on AW, the latest a Listed race where he enjoyed the run of things but showed a fine attitude to repel a solid yardstick; unlikely to enjoy such a soft time through the early part of this race but he is an improving 4yo and Ryan Moore is booked. |
5/2 |

2nd 1 (11) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Second of four in 1m2f course Listed race (good) in May; below that level with cheekpieces added at Sandown (Listed) and Glorious Goodwood (handicap) during the summer but still lightly raced and it'll be interesting to see how strong the betting vibes are on this first outing for three months (gelded). |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Likes it here and he was a close third at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) latest but he's hard to win with and is 7lb out of the handicap today. |
33/1 |
|
3rd 10 (2) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Both wins were at 1m2f in 2024; good third off a reduced mark at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month but he was only fourth of six over C&D last time; that took his overall record to 2-32 and others are preferred. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins at 1m2f in 2024 but he has run well over this C&D and, after a slow start to the year, he showed more when a close third of eight at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last week; on the premises again. |

9st 3lb |
8yo who has won five times on the July Course here, including two this year; 0-9 on this track but latest fifth of 23 in the Cambridgeshire was highly creditable; another who can't be discounted. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |

8yo who has run well in this race previously and won two in a row on the other Newmarket course in July; however, he's finished no better than fifth across his last five outings and it's probably best to look elsewhere. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
He's added two wins at about 1m (good and good to firm) this year and wasn't seen to best advantage at Goodwood on Sunday, unable to get a clear run until the birds ahead had flown; capable of better on this quick return. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Raised only 2lb for his wins at Nottingham in May and Newmarket last time, so looks likely to remain competitive, especially as he's a dual Goodwood scorer. |
11/2 |
|
1st 6 (1) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
His wins have come on good or heavy ground but he's effective on good to firm; has been and up down since his win at Glorious Goodwood last summer but he scored at Nottingham (8.3f) in May and backed that up with a creditable fifth in a big field at Epsom the following month; returns after a short break but he could go well on this drop back in grade. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Veteran who finished runner-up in his only previous go over C&D, but that was in 2020; exclusively campaigned over 1m these days and is on a losing run of 23, so has enough to prove. |
16/1 |
|
6th 11 (7) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
10yo whose losing sequence goes back 19 runs to 2020; ran some big races last season but seen only twice this year (both Goodwood), failing to build on comeback sixth (Linwood third) when down the field three weeks ago. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Kempton (1m, AW) on second run since being gelded and he followed up in fine style at Newbury (1m, good to firm); up 9lb since last time but this progressive 4yo could still play a leading role. |
7/2 |
|
1st 1 (1) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Both wins have come at Kempton (1m, AW), the latest a week ago; just 1lb wrong under his 5lb penalty and he remains unexposed, but fast ground is an unknown (best turf run on soft); stable also runs Distinct Spirit. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D win last summer on his second start; similar form in defeat on his next two starts but he ended 2025 with a lesser effort and there was no revival on his reappearance at York (1m1f, good; first run since gelded; well backed) 19 days ago; dropped another 3lb and could benefit from the return to AW; still of interest. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two wins for Robert Eddery came over a stiff, undulating 7f, so has that in her favour; lacked consistency for new yard, below par in first-time cheekpieces latest (headgear now off, tongue-tie on), but could easily bounce back. |

9st 12lb |
Back to form when making all over C&D (good to firm) this month with four of today's rivals behind; similar tactics won't be so easy in this field and she is 4lb higher, but she is still lightly raced for the time of year; has won on good to soft ground; shortlisted. |
7/2 |
|
1st 3 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Last year she won a Salisbury novice (7f, good to firm) and Epsom handicap (extended 1m, good to soft); yet to make a great impact this season, but it was a Class 3 last time at Ascot; on a competitive mark. |
4/1 |

6th 3 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |

Won Salisbury novice (7f, good to firm) and Epsom handicap (extended 1m, good to soft) last year; only seventh of 14 on 1m Kempton reappearance but the fact she went off 15-8 favourite suggests better was anticipated. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
His win in July took C&D record to 3-4 (good to soft and good to firm); had a very awkward start here since and was soon tailed off (stablemate Cherry Cobbler was second) but, given his fine strike-rate here, he can't easily be left out. |
10/1 |
|
9th 6 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All four turf wins have been gained on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in his first two runs this season but he returned to form when beating Jumby over C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago; only 2lb higher here and has leading claims if he can back that up. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins on turf have been achieved on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in two comeback outings in recent months but eased 3lb and capable of bouncing back to form to a form with a bang. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
10yo who won this in 2023; frequently runs well in quality handicaps and he's 5lb lower than when a cracking third in the Royal Hunt Cup last June; scratched from the Lincoln when running a temperature on his intended comeback last month and he tends to improve for a run these days; also winless since 2023. |
15/2 |

11th 2 (1) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
9yo who has drawn a blank since winning on the July Course in summer 2023 and needs everything to drop right but he often runs extremely well in defeat, including when third in the Royal Hunt Cup in June; another respectable effort when sixth of 20 in Balmoral at Ascot (1m, good) a fortnight ago; not discounted in this slightly easier race. |
