26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Much the best of his AW form has come in 0-50 classified events including two wins here (8.6f/9.5f); landed a 0-55 handicap on turf at Nottingham (1m, good) in April and the market should indicate how ready he is on this first outing since. |

1st 4 (5) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Not the easiest and plenty of short-priced defeats to his name but he won at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month and was a creditable third in another classified event at Lingfield (1m2f) three weeks ago; remains unexposed on turf and he needs a close look back in this sphere. |

9st 0lb |
Almost three years since he last ran on turf and has a better overall record on AW; missed 2024 and 2025; pleasing reappearance at Wolverhampton in March; doubts raised by subsequent form; new headgear combination now. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

12th 8 (6) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |

Won twice at this venue for Joseph O'Brien early in his career (2019 and 2020); absent throughout 2023 and 2024; did well on his reappearance over an extended 1m at Wolverhampton last month, ran prominently all the way and beat all bar the favourite; strong contender if replicating that form. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won 8.6f classified here in July and was second in that grade under a penalty at Lingfield (1m) a few days later; evidently in good nick but has a bit more on his plate in this handicap and is not sure to be suited by the drop back in trip. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Went close at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Chepstow (1m) before getting off the mark (13th attempt) in a classified event at Wolverhampton last Tuesday; pulled 5l clear with his main market rival in that race and he hit a personal best with that brave success; key player. |
13/8 |

1st 4 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

0-12 but he hit the frame twice in similar races over C&D in March; better form when beaten a neck into second at Chepstow (1m, soft) last month; set to go well once again. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Three wins (1m) in 2024 but he's been well held in last ten starts including when fourth behind Desiderata at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) last month; that wasn't bad but he needs to raise his game back in a handicap. |
20/1 |

4th 11 (7) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 1m scorer in 2024 but only poor form of late and he was soon ridden when fourth of six in 7f Chelmsford handicap in January; he needs to take a step forward. |
16/1 |

4th 6 (1) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won three times over 1m in 2024, including over C&D; third at Southwell (1m, AW) last April but he's not been in the same form in four starts since; drops back to 7f and others are preferred. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Career best when making all in Newcastle classified (1m) last month; hasn't matched that in three subsequent starts but he lost a shoe when back in a classified last time; probable contender with Billy Loughnane taking over. |

5th 10 (3) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

9st 9lb |
Three wins in an industrious 2025 and another this March; three of those were AW, as was the respectable show in first-time cheekpieces on latest start, while last June's 1m classified win at Chepstow was on soft; others look more solid these days on today's likely good or good to firm ground. |
10/1 |

4th 8 (3) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

All three AW wins have been over C&D, the latest in a classified event in March; has been below that form since and the switch from a hood to first-time cheekpieces needs to have a positive impact. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

C&D winner last June (soft) off a 4lb higher mark; wants a good test over this trip but is capable of bouncing back, having been given an 11-week break since a couple of lesser efforts in Tapeta 0-50s. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a long losing run in a classified event at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) in June but he was a remote third there (1m) last time; that was a tough task behind a handicap blot but he's not easy to predict and his two runs on slow ground have been underwhelming. |

Arrested decline on last two outings, more recently when beating King Of The Dance to win 7.3f classified race here (good) six weeks ago; has more on his plate in this handicap but still considered. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |

Regressed sharply last year and has been tried over various trips of late; one of his better efforts over 1m here last Tuesday but is worse off back out of handicap company and no certainty to repeat the dose. |
