31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Ended long losing run when successful in a 1m4f AW handicap at Lingfield in April; ran well on his next two starts and when down the field on last month's return to action at Kempton (after 11 weeks off) it was in a higher grade than this; handles testing ground and has a good amateur booked; one for the shortlist. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (5) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a competitive handicap at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in April before being placed on his next two starts, but he was tailed off over this C&D in May; a 77-day break may have done him some good and he could bounce back. |
20/1 |

12th 14 (6) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
High marks for consistency of late and belatedly doubled his tally at Lingfield last month (1m4f, AW); better form when going down by a nose under same conditions next time and it wasn't much of a drop off when third at Windsor last week; hard to rule out. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
3-15 on AW (last two wins were at this track) compared to 0-4 on turf; in good form at 1m4f on AW initially this year, including a second under Taryn Langley; there was a dip in April when last seen but it's easy to see him returning in a major role for his in-form yard. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Thriving since the cheekpieces went on, scoring at Southwell (1m4f) in February and bettering that form when beaten 1l by Son Of Man over C&D 24 days ago; enjoys a 2lb weights pull now so he's a likely player. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Bath (1m2f, firm), beating Galaxy Wonder by half a length on the latest occasion; up another 2lb, but still a big player in his current mood. |

1st 5 (1) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |

Most wins on the AW but it was his third success on the grass when coming home 2.5l to the good over C&D two weeks ago; defying the 5lb rise shouldn't be beyond him. |
9/2 |

1st 5 (2) |

Three wins include one here (1m) in April off a 2lb lower mark; below that level on turf in two starts since and drops back to 7f for the first time since his debut, which would be a concern. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins this year came on the AW, but his sole turf win came over this trip on good to firm ground; may be best to forgive his latest Chester performance and a possible if back on song. |

9th 10 (2) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Windsor maiden winner on turf last April but he's been confined to AW for all six starts this year; gets a 3lb nudge for his win at Kempton (1m) last time; 1m2f no issue but this is a notch above the standard he usually plies his trade in. |

11st 3lb |
2-4 for new stable, winning at Goodwood (1m4f, good; cheekpieces first time) before getting the better Epictetus over C&D last month; came unstuck at York in his hat-trick bid and this looks a competitive race in which to get back on track. |
20/1 |

8th 8 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Represents a new trainer in excellent form and has won at Goodwood (1m4f, good) and Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) on his last two outings, proving himself better than ever; edging up the weights only gradually and in the mix again. |
10/1 |

1st 4 (8) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Did well on AW last winter and even better form when the cheekpieces replaced a visor at Goodwood (1m4f, good) four weeks ago, leading over 1f out to score with rather more authority than the half-length winning margin suggests; used to act on good to firm; up 3lb but firmly in the picture. |

Second in this in 2024 (good to firm) and won at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in March but unplaced on her four starts since, well beaten at Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) most recently when reverting to turf following a break. |

2-21 on turf and 3-21 on AW, with latest win in March; usually seen over shorter; her last turf run was last September and that 2025 turf campaign went the wrong way, but at least she has a lower mark this time. |

Rattled off a four-timer over 1m2f on Polytrack during the winter, including three wins here; has never attempted this far on the Flat before, though, and will need plenty to go right from the outside stall. |

Reeled off a four-timer around the turn of the year, the last three wins coming over C&D; found King's Hand too strong last time (had finished in front of him on penultimate start) and there shouldn't be much between the pair again. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Ran well when second of nine in returning cheekpieces at Leicester (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but all seven wins have been on the AW; still 6lb lower than for the latest of those, but he attempts beyond 1m6f for the first time on his 63rd outing. |

All seven wins have been on the AW (1m2f-1m4f) and he ran creditably on his last two starts; however, he's yet to finish in the first three in five starts on turf and others are preferred; cheekpieces are back on for the first time since 2024. |
