3rd 4 (4) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Six-time winner on the Flat over shorter trips than this (1m1f-1m4f), including at this track in 2023; beaten about 5l when fifth of seven in a Group 3 over this C&D in May (behind Lazy Griff and ahead of Furthur and Duke Of Oxford) but that was steadily run and he didn't fully prove his stamina; stable won this with Trueshan in 2024 but this 7yo has a bit to find to reverse placings with Lazy Griff. |
5/1 |

5th 6 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
7yo who has a good record here and has been better than ever in AW handicaps this year, and he wasn't beaten far when fifth of six in Group 2 Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) four weeks ago; however, his form needs to go to a new level and he's unraced beyond 1m4f on the Flat. |

5th 5 (6) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
In the form of his life this winter with a win at Lingfield (1m4f) in February and close calls in his other three outings; those were on AW, which does seem to suit him particularly well, and also in handicaps, which leaves him with something to find in his first Group venture. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who made it two wins for the year when scoring easily at Chester (10.3f, good) in May then finished second of 16 at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) on Oaks day, albeit no match for the highly progressive winner; yard has won three of the last seven runnings and he could be a contender. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 4 (15) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Appeared to act on good to soft last term (unraced on soft); has gone from strength to strength this year, first on AW but most strikingly when returned to turf for a dominant, front-running display as 10-11 favourite in 11-runner race at Chester (1m2f, good); 9lb higher today but highly respected. |
11/2 |
|
1st 6 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
In good form on the AW since returning in February, easily justifying short odds at Chelmsford (1m2f) in March; no problem with the return to turf having won over this trip at Haydock (good) last August; can take a hold, but may settle better in this big field and he remains unexposed; a player. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Improved once returned to AW and bagged a hat-trick across October and December (1m); on the scoresheet again upped to 9.5f at Wolverhampton (career-best form) in February; form took a slight dip on last two starts, while his earlier turf form isn't comparable so interesting to see how he fares back on grass. |
16/1 |
|
10th 9 (6) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Record in AW handicaps reads 11124135; pulled his chance away at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) last month, but may settle better in this bigger field; one for the shortlist. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
6-24 on AW but 0-12 on turf; recent efforts have been underwhelming and he's probably better suited by 1m4f; not the percentage call. |
20/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Six-time AW winner but he's 0-11 on turf and has struggled at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) and Hamilton (1m5f, good) in last two runs; now drops back into a Class 4 event but he has plenty to prove back at this trip. |
16/1 |
|
9th 4 (4) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Six wins (latest in February) from 24 AW starts but 0-10 on turf; Newmarket 15 days ago saw first turf race since 2023 and he came last of eight. |

3rd 7 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Reliable and progressive on a variety of ground and courses, although has never raced at Newmarket; third in this race last year; hit new heights at Epsom (1m4f) on last two outings and makes each-way appeal. |
14/1 |
|
21 (14) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 2lb
|
Reserve; form figures 121 at 1m4f on good to firm last May-August (not at this meeting) on his only appearances at Ascot; in career-best form over 1m4f at Epsom (good/soft) on his latest two outings, which sees him raised another 4lb today and into a much better race, but he's one to consider. |
33/1 |
|
2nd 9 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Finished fifth in this last year and it was just his second visit to Epsom when impressively landing the five-runner Great Metropolitan over C&D (good) in April; 4lb rise (arguably could have been worse) pushes him into uncharted territory but he has won on good to soft and is a player under Billy Loughnane. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Fit from AW and hurdling when good second to Fierce Fortitude at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April, keeping on strongly; respectable fourth of 16 to a runaway winner at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) four weeks ago and should be okay back at 1m4f, but this race looks a bit too hot; 5lb claimer is recruited. |
14/1 |
|
4th 16 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Acts on good to soft, unraced on soft; fit from AW and hurdling when good second of seven at Redcar (1m2f) five weeks ago, keeping on strongly; up 2lb and into a better race but needs a second look. |
18/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Caught wide when down the field at Lingfield in February on last Flat start and when well beaten over hurdles on his last two runs he was contesting hot 4yo races; on a competitive mark on last summer's Flat form and he was a Listed hurdle runner-up in October; not ruled out back in this code. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Career highlights (1m4f/1m6f) for Roger Varian were in 2024 and he managed only mid-division in his three handicaps (at top meetings) last July-September; rather worse in both runs (his first races on AW) for new connections early this year but he returns to turf 8lb below his career-high mark. |
28/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
On same mark as for his win at York (1m4f, good) in August 2024 but he's not seen much action since and has been well held in last four starts; may have needed the run on his stable/AW debut at Kempton (28-1) last month but others are more persuasive. |
14/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Campaigned on turf for Roger Varian, often in notable handicaps (won one at York in 2024); failed to reproduce his peak figures in a light 2025 campaign and sold for 60,000gns since last run; the betting may prove best guide on AW/stable debut. |
