27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Didn't look at all happy at Epsom (7f, good to soft) last time, but is just 1lb higher than when making a successful reappearance at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) in March; not dismissed. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Progressive during last season's 3yo campaign and continued the good work when winning at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March on his reappearance; another good run when third to Dance In The Storm at Chester (7f, good) last month; versatile ground-wise and might not be far away. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |

Steadily progressive on turf and AW; prevailed at Wolverhampton (7f) on seasonal debut, making it three wins from his last six races; up only another 2lb and there's the possibility of further improvement; respected. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Usually seen over further but he goes well on slow ground and is only 1lb higher than for his big-field win at York last summer (7f, good to soft); big run wouldn't be a bolt from the blue. |
12/1 |
|
5th 2 (8) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Didn't appear to be crying out for the return to 1m at Doncaster and weakened late on; this is his trip, over which he was twice runner-up at Wolverhampton in March; not handicapped out of it, either. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Made all in very valuable auction race as a juvenile but winless since taking Redcar's Two-Year-Old Trophy six weeks later; looked to be rediscovering his level when third on AW in March and it was a solid fifth of 18 behind Royal Velvet (declared for preceding Group 3) at Newmarket (7f, good) last time; if the stands' rail proves the place to be this could be the day to revert to forcing tactics; interesting. |
13/2 |
|
5th 17 (18) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Yet to match his 2yo best (included big sales race and Listed wins) but he's only had eight subsequent starts and latest third at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) four weeks ago was a firm step back in the right direction; same mark and there's a suspicion he could be on the way back; player if so. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 9 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Seen only twice since 2024 but ran with promise over 6f at Wolverhampton (AW debut) last time, shaping as if this return to 7f will suit; well handicapped on best turf form, which features two notable wins as a 2yo; interesting. |

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. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Bounced back to form when second of seven at Salisbury (7f, good) last month; 1lb rise for that still leaves him 1lb below his last winning mark and he ran well in his only previous attempt over this far; shortlisted. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won off 2lb higher in Class 4 on AW last November; has failed to land a blow in Class 3 races since returned to turf but this drop back in grade may have a positive effect; fairly useful in this sphere as a 2yo. |
8/1 |
|
8th 12 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Previously effective on turf but form dipped returned to this sphere last time and he still hasn't scored on grass since his 2yo days; admittedly on a workable mark provided he rebounds. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All wins have been over further when hooded and he's 0-7 at about 7f (has placed form); hasn't really fired in any of his last three races but this is easier than he's accustomed to; unraced at Chester. |
9/2 |
|
5th 4 (2) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Threatened on AW and turf in the spring but his last two efforts have been below par (C&D latterly); feasibly handicapped but others are more persuasive. |

|
6th 11 (11) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Not at his best two weeks ago but he had been threatening on both AW and turf beforehand; on a dangerous mark and he can't be discounted. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Has shown most of his AW form at Kempton but ran creditably at Southwell most recently; makes Wolverhampton debut with a tongue-tie replacing usual hood; brings uncertainty. |

|
3rd 4 (1) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Ended 2025 with two good placed efforts at Kempton; not at the same level at Lingfield last month and he has a bit more to prove on Tapteta. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Acts on most ground; has won three handicaps at Musselburgh this season and gained her first Listed success when scoring at Chester (7f, good) in June, but she was below that level at Pontefract (1m) last month; has a better draw than she did when down the field in this contest last year but is now 11lb higher than when last seen in handicap company. |
22/1 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Could hardly be coming into this in better form, winning four of her last five starts including another Listed event at Chester (7f, good) ten days ago; still favoured on these terms despite her 3lb penalty and although the stiffer mile is one small question mark, she is a major player nonetheless. |
5/2 |

1st 3 (8) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |

This 5yo is in the form of her life at present, gaining a third Musselburgh handicap win of the season when easily seeing off seven rivals 37 days ago; had a wide stall as a an excuse for a slightly below-par effort over the extended 7f here prior to that and she went close here last season; on the shortlist. |

All three wins on turf came on testing ground in France and his best efforts in Britain have been on the AW, including a win at Kempton in October; below par in recent starts and has been dropped another 2lb. |

6th 3 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |

His best efforts in Britain have been on AW and he was ideally suited by testing ground when trained in France; none too consistent, either. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Fully 15lb lower than when winning at Lingfield (6f, AW) last December but this 9yo has regressed in recent months; has to turn things around. |
40/1 |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |

On a good mark, fully 14lb lower than when winning last season's Great St Wilfrid, but 0-14 at 5f and he is drawn out wide. |
