1st 9 (10) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Returned to Flat with short-priced wins (2m, good) at Ascot and Chester, leading over 2f out; firmly in command last time and looks well treated under a 5lb penalty; well beaten in two maidens here in 2023 but a close second in Polytrack handicap in 2025, and that's the sum of his AW record; hitting new heights on turf and a huge player if he's as effective on this surface. |
100/30 |
|
1st 7 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three months off before returning to Flat with a win at Ascot (2m, good; 12 ran) three weeks ago, always prominent as 11-8 favourite; up 4lb and lacks any experience of this track but a huge player if he takes to it. |

1st 8 (13) |

9st 7lb |
Placed in all four staying handicaps (includes 2m win) for Jessica Macey in 2024; three hurdle wins since joining this yard and a good effort on the Flat when second at Kempton (2m, AW) in April 2025; respected on his return to this sphere. |

1st 4 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has done well since switched to Flat turf for his last two starts with the visor added, winning at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) in April before second of 12 in an apprentice handicap at Ascot (2m, good) last month (winner followed up at Chester on Saturday); up just another 1lb and high on the list. |
11/4 |

2nd 5 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Beaten a nose, a head and a neck in three bumpers; earned his mark over 1m and predictably did better upped in trip when scoring at Kempton (1m3f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) in March; rebounded from a blip next time when going in again at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm; first-time visor) a fortnight ago; dam half-sister to St Leger winner Brian Boru and this new trip could unlock more again; key player. |
3/1 |
|
1st 2 (6) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has worn cheekpieces since switched to handicaps, winning at Kempton (1m3f) then below par at Lingfield, both on AW; may rebound and have more to offer, provided he responds well to the fitting of visor. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
1-20, but no doubting his consistency and was only just behind Naval Tribute when third of 12 in an apprentice handicap at Ascot (2m, good) last month; has had more chances than his old rival, but should again go well from the same mark. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 9 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Sole success came when evens for a Bath novice (1m2f, good to soft) as 2yo; respectable efforts across five starts at 1m6f and 2m in 2025 and he went mighty close at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in March after which he had a run over hurdles; strike-rate isn't a positive but he has the ability to figure. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Just 1-18 on Flat, with mostly fair form though and he was pipped over 1m6f just 15 days ago on latest start; just as good on turf as AW; sire Golden Horn has done well with plenty of jumpers; needs a close look on hurdle debut. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Latest of his six wins was in clearcut style in this race last year (good to firm) off 1lb higher, making all; running creditably back on turf this season and looks set for a bold show, but all of today's rivals are either in good form too and/or far less exposed. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His six wins include two over C&D; no match for No More Bolero when second here (2m1f, good to firm) in April, although he is 5lb better off with that rival; fourth of 12 at Ascot (2m, good) four weeks ago and holds place claims. |
9/4 |
|
4th 13 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Scored for the sixth time when making all at Newbury (13.5f, good to firm) off 1lb lower in July and gave it a fair go from the front when second at Bath (2m1f, good to firm; Educator third) three weeks ago; same mark and should make his presence felt. |

Thorough stayer whose wins have all been at about 2m; arrives in reasonable form and has placed on two of his three C&D visits; might be the one to follow Laravie home. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (1) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |

5th 12 (1) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins at 2m, including three on soft going, latterly at Catterick in October; went back-to-back at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and fourth at Ripon (2m, good) on latest outing was close to his best; same mark, so needs to find extra, but he can't be ruled out. |

9st 6lb |
Without a Flat win since 2023 but was placed in valuable 2m AW handicap in April and didn't run badly when sixth of 12 at Ascot (2m, good) last month; eased in grade here; can go well from the front. |
6/1 |
|
6th 6 (7) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |

Can set the pace; twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f/16.5f) during the winter and a good third of 14 in competitive event at Lingfield (2m, also AW; Tarbat Ness sixth) on Good Friday; turf no problem and he should give a good account. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 11 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Often a front-runner; 1lb lower than when twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f/16.5f) during the winter and didn't enjoy much luck when behind a couple of these there last month, but the outside stall won't make things easy. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His last win was 14 months ago but he made some good late headway when runner-up at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) last month; only 1lb higher here and he looks interesting back up in trip. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Defied an 8lb higher mark over C&D in May 2025 but was in better form at the time; chance depends on the effects of a belated third attempt in blinkers (last worn in 2023). |
8/1 |
|
11th 13 (9) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice over about 1m4f (AW/good to firm) last spring and he's thrown in judged on that form; twice close up on AW in January and a respectable third at Bath (2m) in April, before Ascot 2m race last week proved too tough; there's a rethink on trip today and cheekpieces (last used in June 2024) return. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
In decent form when last seen on the Flat for Michael Bell but has been hurdling since December 2024 for this yard; did well as a juvenile in that sphere but last season didn't go well; mark fine if this return to the Flat perks him up. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Well handicapped on some of last season's form but looked unenthusiastic when never-dangerous fourth at Plumpton (2m4f, good to soft) last month and has become disappointing; needs change of headgear to perk him up. |

9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |

9st 3lb |
Signed off for the Crisfords with a 1m6f win on the AW in a Class 4 handicap, in first-time blinkers; well held over 2m here on yard debut (tried cheekpieces) and this is highly ambitious on all the figures. |
150/1 |
|
9th 1 (8) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Unplaced both turf starts and both 2m races; inconsistent on AW but took advantage of career-low mark to score by a neck over 1m6f in January on final start for the Crisfords; sported first-time blinkers that day and sold for 31,000gns the following month; cheekpieces are today's headgear and he has something to prove back on turf at 2m. |

1st 5 (3) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |

In and out since winning at Leicester (1m4f, good) in April and he was beaten 8l after a slow start at Newbury last time; now only 1lb higher than for that last success but he needs to raise his game back up in trip. |

In and out since winning at Leicester (1m4f, good) in April and was disappointing at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) 11 days ago given he has won over that far and in testing ground; has plenty of form on good to firm, but has a bit to prove; often misses the break. |

Three of his six wins have come over this trip elsewhere and he will appreciate going back up in distance after finishing third of eight at Newmarket (1m2f, good) four weeks ago (runner-up won next time); goes on any ground and respected off the same mark. |

All starts on AW; sole start at 2m resulted in short-priced flop at Chelmsford in November; won at that track (1m6f) next time but he let favourite backers down again when beating one home over that trip at Wolverhampton in March; 1m4f caught him out last time but others look safer. |

17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |

Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark. |

8th 4 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip. |
