9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Emphatic winner of handicap debut on Southwell AW (6f) in March; found Group 3 and Listed races too daunting on next two starts and he made only modest late headway into mid-division over 5f at Royal Ascot (40-1; without regular hood, as today); return to 6f should suit but the same applies to others from that race. |
22/1 |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Useful 2yo and took his form to a new level with an emphatic win at Southwell (6f, AW) in March; a refusal to settle has compromised him in Group 3/Listed events on his last two starts but this mark is surely in range judged on that Southwell win and he is interesting now dropped to 5f for the first time; hooded every time except today. |

Talented, albeit is a shade quirky, and made a mockery of his mark in Southwell handicap (6f, AW) on reappearance; eventually dropped away in Ascot Group 3 since but may still have more to offer; not written off. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Two 6f AW wins as a juvenile and he nearly pulled off a step up in trip when going down narrowly at Chester (extended 7f, good) in May; had no chance of getting involved after getting badly hampered on the rail at Epsom in June; gelded since; open to some improvement but he's another trying a new trip. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who went beyond 6f for the first time when going close at Chester (7.5f, good) last month; has also shown promise on good to soft ground; unexposed at this sort of trip and could be involved. |
14/1 |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |

Campaigned only at 6f, mostly on AW (admittedly went close in sole turf attempt); soundly beaten on finals day at Newcastle most recently; 0-3 since handicapping and now goes into unknown territory trip-wise. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Managed only fifth of eight at Kempton last month and is now 0-6 for current stable; continues to slip down the weights but his tendency to race too freey remains a concern; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |
12/1 |

10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Two wins for David O'Meara as a 2yo and also ran a cracker over C&D last September (Group 3); the handicapper has been in command this year but he returns to AW and drops back to a Class 4; not solid but a revival isn't out of the question. |
12/1 |

5th 1 (6) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins at about 5f (good to firm and good) as 2yo for previous yard; no progress for this one in 2026, finishing in mid-division at Newmarket (first-time cheekpieces, retained) in April; gelded since; likely needs more weight off his back kept to 6f. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won first two starts (both AW; trained by Joseph O'Brien on debut) but his form has levelled off; latest fourth over 7.5f at Chester (good to soft) came in a useful 3yo handicap but he'll need to pull out a bit more to get his head back in front. |
9/1 |

4th 8 (11) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
First five starts on AW; made it 2-2 when scoring at Southwell (6f) on his stable debut in January and he's continued to run respectably, including when beaten 3l on his turf debut at Beverley (7.5f, good to soft) six weeks ago; needs more from widest stall in this warmer event but yard did have a welcome winner at Epsom last Saturday. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Made a winning start for current yard in 6f Southwell novice in January and he's continued in good form, fourth of 14 in 6f Newcastle handicap last month; this return to 7f promises to suit so he's firmly in the picture. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Experienced 3yo who was winning for third time this year when scoring at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May; short-headed at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago by one who was completing a hat-trick; major contender. |
4/1 |

9st 3lb |
Gained his sixth success when winning at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May and ran well again at Windsor (6f, good to soft) next time, but failed to beat a rival at Ffos Las ten days ago and needs to bounce back. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Landed her third win of the year three weeks ago, showing the right attitude on very soft ground (made all in a small field); this is more competitive but she's only been nudged up 1lb and that confirmed her back in form. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Back-to-back C&D wins in December and up against it from where he was when a close fifth back here in February; perhaps didn't take a liking to Southwell when below par there last time and could still be on the upgrade. |
6/1 |

7th 6 (6) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Dual Lingfield winner (6f, Polytrack) in December, but finished behind a couple of these when fifth of 12 there a fortnight ago; was up against it in attempting to come from so far back, though, so it wouldn't be a surprise were he to fare better; |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Returned from a gelding operation to win back-to-back C&D nurseries in December; came up just short in his hat-trick bid at Newcastle six weeks ago but it was another step forward in form terms; return to Lingfield should help and Ashley Lewis takes off a useful 5lb; good chance. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

3yo who arrives on the up; easy winner at Bath (5f, firm) last month and ran well considering he was drawn wide and slowly away when fourth at Chester next time; still unexposed and commands major respect. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Wolverhampton novice winner (5f) who ran a blinder for third in a 6f handicap at Lingfield on Good Friday, hampered early then racing wide throughout but still producing a strong finish; confirmed the merit of that effort when outclassing his rivals in a 0-80 at Bath 11 days ago (5f, firm); he is a sprinter firmly on the up but stall 11 will not make life easy. |
5/1 |

1st 1 (8) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Campaigned on AW this year, best form when scoring readily over 5f in February and close third (despite wide trip) over 6f last time; may do better still; possibilities back on turf. |
