3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Prolific AW winner whose offputting 0-21 strike-rate on turf doesn't do him anywhere near justice, as he's finished in the frame many times in Group sprints, including on this track; not far away in a Group 3 at Newbury recently and he could go well at a price now back at 6f. |

3rd 1 (8) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 34y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Ten-time AW winner; has comparable form on turf, including in Group 3 races at Newbury, and holds place claims on the figures in this field; harder to make first choice, being 0-20 in this sphere. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Superb run of AW form at 5f in the autumn, winning three in a row, two from the front; has remained in form since but he couldn't sustain his effort back on turf at Goodwood last time and needs to show he can reproduce his sand form on grass. |
14/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Completed a 5f AW hat-trick last backend and has continued in fine form this spring, runner-up in 5f Southwell handicap last time; must enter calculations back on turf. |

2nd 8 (12) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Ended 2025 on the up and he improved again when second in the Listed Hever Stakes at Lingfield four weeks ago; a 3lb rise demands extra but this speedy sort shouldn't be discounted. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Free-going front-runner; no longer the force of old but ran big race when fourth of 23 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last week; 1lb lower here and could be hard to catch if in similar form again. |
13/8 |
|
4th 5 (7) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner; 3lb lower than for his runaway win at Haydock last September (5f, good) but hasn't got a lot going in his last four races and was tailed off in Epsom's Dash, in which he was second in 2024; others preferred. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced filly who had wind surgery prior to a heavy defeat (not beaten solely by poor draw) in the Wokingham last time, failing by a long way to record a second Royal Ascot win; best watched. |
40/1 |

26th 11 (6) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Sterling effort to win the Group 2 Queen Mary (5f, good to firm) at this meeting as a 2yo, then ran to a similar level in another Group 2 at York (6f); useful efforts in 5f Listed races in just two runs as a 3yo and 4yo (tongue tied latest; had wind surgery since) but the suitability of this test has to be proved. |
33/1 |
|
4th 6 (2) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Impressed at Nottingham on her 2yo debut and went on to defeat 23 rivals in the Queen Mary Stakes a fortnight later; only seen three times since, once last year when not getting a clear run through in a Haydock Listed race in May; could still dip into that 2yo promise and AW shouldn't be an issue; tongue tied for the first time. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Five course wins at 5f-1m, gained another October win over 5f in 2025; well below best at Laytown but better effort over 5f here since; back up in trip here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (1) |
2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Five course wins at 5f-1m, including this contest in 2024; gained another October win over C&D in 2025; hasn't won since bolting up over C&D in February; well below best at Laytown when last seen but dangerous to discount. |

7th 1 (3) |
10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
12st 1lb |
Five wins at Dundalk at 5f-1m but form has dipped since his win over 5f there in February; beaten 4.75l in a 6f handicap there on latest off 100 (RPR 94); 19lb lower here so dangerous to discount. |
