21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Best form has been on AW, with a career high at Newcastle in January (5f); 0-12 on grass and well down the field in a Class 2 at Glorious Goodwood latest. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
All three wins and best form have been on the AW, delivering a career high at Newcastle in January (5f AW); lower turf mark sees him 2lb higher here but he is 0-11 on grass and lacks a recent run. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Strong 6f form here until a disappointing run eight days ago, tanking through the race but finding little off the bridle; should be fine back at 5f and he remains on a dangerous mark. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
12-time winner, including 2024 edition of this race; has a bit to prove after two down-the-field finishes but faced tough task in Group 1 July Cup here last time and he looked as good as ever when creditable third in Group 3 on Rowley Mile here (6f, good) in April; in the shake-up if back on song. |
10/1 |

11th 6 (3) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Multiple winner, most recently when sent over to Qatar in February, but his form has regressed since and this is a difficult task even if a revival materialises; gained his C&D wins at handicap/Listed level; yet to score above Group 3. |
33/1 |

11th 11 (13) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who has a strike-rate of 12-34 overall and 3-4 at York, the most recent course success in 7f Group 3 last June (equally effective at 6f); ties in with some of today's opponents on penultimate effort; removal of usual hood backfired last time; likely to go well. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won six times on AW last year; has just one success on turf (good to firm on his debut in 2022) but he was placed on both starts here and last time's third of seven at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) was a solid effort; regularly stays away from ground worse than good so probably doesn't want any rain, which is forecast. |
12/1 |

3rd 1 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
He's just 1-25 on turf but was runner-up over C&D (good to firm) last month and wasn't beaten far in a competitive Class 2 at favourite course Newcastle (5f, AW) last Friday; could be in the mix. |
7/2 |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won this race 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark and recorded his seventh C&D win when scoring in December; solid second on turf three weeks ago; should run his race. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Smart sprinter on his day; built on his return from a 510-day absence when fourth of six at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) in December but he was slightly below that level at Newcastle (5f, AW) 39 days ago; now has his usual hood removed. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Smart sprinter on his day; absent for 510 days prior to his reappearance at Southwell in November; well beaten there but latest Wolverhampton fourth was a step back in the right direction; not discounted. |
11/2 |
|
8th 4 (3) |
6th Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
In and out overall, but on a going day when winning this race last year (good ground) in emphatic fashion; also won Musselburgh handicap off top weight in March and has had possible excuses since (usual hood left off last time); could bounce back with the excellent Billy Loughnane a positive booking. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Four-time AW winner but he's 0-7 on turf and has been well held back in this sphere in three runs after wind surgery; mark continues to fall but he needs to significantly raise his game back up in trip. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins and best form has been on the AW over 6f; third over that far at Yarmouth last time but was comfortably held; back at 5f from a high draw, he looks up against it. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 (10) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ended 2025 with two good AW runs at Kempton; down the field in three AW starts this year and he had been given a wind op before weakening on his return to turf at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago; nothing wrong with this mark and he drops in grade but the jury's out at the moment. |
