28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 4-13 features a Hamilton win (1m1f, good) on penultimate start when coming off a strong pace; spoiled chance by failing to settle in steadily run race last time; chance partly depends on the tempo. |
12/1 |

10th 8 (2) |
10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Successful twice in Scotland this term, including at Hamilton (1m1f, good) latest start; has been reassessed to a career-high mark and faces a stiffer assignment back up in grade. |
14/1 |
|
1st 12 (10) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning reappearance at Musselburgh (1m, good to soft; first start since being gelded) in April and he also went close there over 1m1f in June; down the field at Goodwood (1m2f, good to firm) 12 days ago having raced freely, but it's likely this slight drop back in trip will suit. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Gained sole win on second 2yo start; returned to form with a couple of fourths (1m) but he failed to improve for a visor last time and now tries cheekpieces; quite exposed and now goes up in distance. |
10/1 |
|
6th 8 (3) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Gained sole win on second 2yo start; back in better form the last twice but chance of doubling his tally partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
10th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won a novice at Beverley last July on his second start; had been disappointing since his reappearance effort at Musselburgh before finishing a 2l fourth of six at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last time, form that has since been franked by the third and fifth; down in grade and he's respected. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten about 5l when seventh of 11 at Hamilton (1m, heavy) last time but prior to that he won over today's C&D on soft ground, and this 3yo is not ruled out now back here. |
7/1 |
|
7th 7 (7) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Prevailed by 1l from Military Leader at Haydock (1m, soft) last time, building on his Galway festival effort and opening his handicap account; may be capable of further improvement; shortlisted. |
5/1 |
|
1st 9 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
0-6 since a successful debut for Godolphin last summer; competitive in two of his four races for Iain Jardine, last time close up in a handicap over the extended 1m at Galway (yielding); if okay on the ground then he might not be far away. |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 89y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
7f winner who stays 1m; no threat in two sprint runs for Ian Williams; will be of more interest when stepped back up in trip. |
33/1 |
|
11th 13 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |

Sole win over 7f as 2yo for Brian Ellison; never dangerous over 6f on yard debut at Goodwood 17 days ago and now drops back even further in trip. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Plenty of promise on his final two starts as a juvenile and he'd been gelded when reappearing with Kempton novice win (7f, AW) in February; suffered from a lack of daylight but still only beaten 2l on his handicap debut (good to soft) in April and he was just pegged at Newmarket (again 1m, good to firm) six weeks ago; likely capable of better again. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
3yo who won at Epsom (7f, good) in July on final outing for George Boughey; one to watch in the betting but beaten a long way at big odds on his three runs for this stable. |
50/1 |
|
13th 8 (9) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins for George Boughey this year but he has been well beaten at big odds in two runs for Stuart Williams; opposable despite the change of accessories. |
50/1 |
|
12th 12 (14) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Won once in Ireland and three times for George Boughey, twice on the AW and in a 7f Epsom handicap on final start for that yard; later sold for 28,000gns; had always worn a hood (also effective in tongue-tie) but went in blinkers on stable debut at Goodwood recently and raced too freely up front; now goes in an eyeshield; bit risky. |
