11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Inconsistent sort who made it 1-20 on turf (that grass win came here in 2yo campaign) when well beaten at Royal Ascot last month; however, two starts ago he was a close sixth in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m, good to firm) when he was denied a clear run, and he's not ruled out. |
7/1 |

18th 12 (18) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Eye-catcher, amid traffic issues, in the Thirsk Hunt Cup last time; form over C&D comprises a respectable eighth (off current mark) in this contest last year and creditable third (did well having been hampered) later in 2025; still has a much better strike-rate on AW than on turf, however. |
22/1 |

6th 4 (15) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Three fine efforts on AW to start the year but his run of good form came to a halt when well behind Blue Rc at Newcastle over Easter; acts on turf but has a much better strike-rate on AW; drawn widest. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Solid fourth-place finishes in good handicaps at Epsom and Sandown on his last two starts; suspicion he will prove vulnerable for win purposes. |
16/1 |
|
4th 9 (11) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Ran respectably at Epsom last time but still has a poor strike-rate in recent years and hasn't won on turf since 2023; the 8yo looks unlikely to prevail in another competitive field. |
40/1 |
|
4th 2 (15) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Seven wins include three on good to soft/soft; also won on AW at Kempton (1m) in February but only midfield in valuable events at Newcastle (AW) and Ascot (good) on his last two starts; however, latter effort was better than it looks having been poorly drawn. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
A sixth win here when beating five rivals in March on latest outing (7f); went up only 2lb but lacking a recent run is probably not ideal in this much deeper race. |
14/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won a division of this off 9lb lower in 2025 when it was run as a 0-85, and raised his highest mark defied twice more after; holding his own in Polytrack Class 2s of late, but has more back in his favour tonight. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Has registered all wins over 7f and in lower grades; however, ran respectably in Lingfield Class 2 most recently, while shaping as if this return to 1m is worth a go; whether he can defy current mark is another matter. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
In good form since returning to turf in the spring, getting the better of Silver Ghost to score at Newmarket (good) in May before solid third on the July course (again 7f, good to firm) the following month; just caught out by a drop to 6f when fourth at Ascot 19 days ago but that form is working out well; player back at 7f with William Buick taking over. |
16/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Dual winner at 1m who was dropped back down to 7f when he scored at Newmarket (good) in May; stayed on for third over that trip on the July course a fortnight ago so this first start at 6f is something of a surprise. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
AW form this year features two wins in January and creditable fifth in the Lincoln Trial; only 1-14 on turf and looks unfavourably handicapped, being 4lb higher than last appearance in this sphere. |
20/1 |
|
4th 8 (3) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
1m Polytrack wins at Chelmsford and Kempton in January; respectable fifth in Class 2 events on last two starts, including over 8.6f here 13 days ago but it remains to be seen whether this step up in trip will suit him. |
7/1 |
|
5th 12 (9) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Won Class 4 handicaps at Chelmsford and Kempton in January; respectable efforts in stronger company twice since but he needs a career best to take this. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ten-time winner who scored at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in Janaury but he's not got involved in his last three starts; now 2lb lower than for that last success but he needs to rediscover his spark. |
20/1 |
|
5th 2 (7) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent record round here (2-4 over C&D) and is back on the mark off which he won here in January; not in the same form of late, there's always a chance he'll blow the start and it's no certainty the race will be set up for him. |
8/1 |
|
6th 3 (3) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner who gained his sixth success on the AW at Lingfield (7f, AW) in January; didn't quite see 1m out when sixth there in February and he never featured in a 0-105 at Kempton (7f) 22 days ago; will appreciate the drop in grade but he'll want a good gallop to aim at over this shorter trip. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't won the races one of his ability should; 4lb lower than for his winning start for Stuart Williams in January (7f, AW) but that wasn't a springboard to better things; sold for 8,500gns this month; goes without headgear on first run for Tony Carroll; not sure what to expect. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (2) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Generally disappointing since returned to turf in May but seemed to respond well to first-time visor when close second off reduced mark at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; big player if in similar form here. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won on the AW over 7f at Chelmsford in January on his stable debut but he's been below his best on turf in recent starts, including when last of six over 1m here last month; visor now applied. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins have been on AW but he's run well on turf this season including when runner-up at Carlisle (1m) in May and when third over this trip at Windsor (good to firm) last time; continues to edge down the weights and he's in the mix with cheekpieces added. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has gained both wins on AW but that was the case with stablemate Cristo (declared 7:50) until he recently prevailed on turf; has posted inconsistent results since returned to this sphere, however, and isn't a solid option. |
9/1 |
|
6th 6 (9) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Three fair efforts since returned to turf; two Wolverhampton wins early in the year came off lower marks in blinkers and he'll need a career-best to take this stepping back up from 1m. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Has some encouraging form, notably close second over C&D (Class 5) on penultimate start; the only maiden in this field and steps up in grade but receives plenty of weight all round; could go well. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
0-7 but he's had only three starts for this stable; ran well to split two more prominently ridden rivals at Southwell (7f, AW) in August and did his best work late on when third of 11 in a Class 4 at Ayr (7f, soft) latest; strong claims with the return to 1m likely to suit on switch back to AW. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Four-time AW winner (1m/1m2f) but he's struggled since returning for this stable in January (refused to race on one occasion), albeit he did have a wide trip last time; has dropped to a career-low mark but has a bit to prove. |
12/1 |

12th 2 (6) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time winner on Polytrack (1m/1m2f), but yet to click since returning for this yard in January, refusing to race on one occasion; has dropped a long way in the weights, but risky. |
25/1 |
|
6th 3 (1) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
AW wins at 1m and 1m2f and he's 0-8 on turf; refused to race on second run back from an absence and, following his fading fifth at Redcar (1m2f) recently, a further drop in the weights could be in order; at least this is a drop in grade, though. |
