17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 15y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won three handicaps in a row in May/June (1m2f/10.3f, good/soft); down the field in Royal Ascot handicap next time and same story there last Friday, so she needs to turn things around, but she's not discounted in view of her previous promise. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won four of her first five starts this year, including the Lester Piggott handicap (1m2f, soft; acts on quicker) at Epsom on Derby day; dropped out of contention in the Golden Gates at the Royal meeting but she's the sort to bounce back and her pedigree offers plenty of hope for this new trip; considered. |
5/1 |

13th 16 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Last of nine on handicap debut (1m, AW) in April but won her other four starts this season; they were 1m2f handicaps at Newmarket, Chester (good) and Epsom (soft) on last three occasions and she's seen those races out strongly; raised another 10lb since that attritional contest two weeks ago, and she's never raced on firmer than good, but it's hard to knock one who's been finding such improvement. |

30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Front-running wins in a Southwell novice (1m) and Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f; with authority) in his only two AW races; those were way better than turf performances at Newmarket on debut and in 1m2f handicap (good to firm) on latest outing, which is a concern even though these are early days. |
5/1 |

5th 5 (2) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Well beaten at 50-1 on debut here (7f, good) in October; way better, however, for front-running wins in a Southwell novice (1m) in November and seven-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in January; those wins were AW but with authority last time (8lb higher today) and he could be a useful prospect. |
7/2 |

Well-beaten 50-1 shot on his Newmarket debut in October but he put that experience to good use with a front-running 1m win at Southwell three weeks later; open to further progress now up in trip for his handicap debut. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
0-5; both his handicaps have been at Chester (1m2f; good then good to soft); the third was encouraging and then reportedly unsuited by ground that connections described as tacky; cheekpieces go on this time and hard to discount. |
7/1 |
|
8th 9 (1) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Has improved with each of his four runs to date, resuming from nine months off with a very good third on his handicap debut over C&D 13 days ago; well in the mix off an unchanged mark. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 10 (2) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Finished closer each time in his three-race 2yo career and met trouble in running when fourth of nine at Haydock (1m, good) on final outing, looking on an even keel only very late in the day when running on well; gelded the following day; highly likely to stay and he's a fascinating handicap newcomer who needs a close look for any strength behind him in the betting. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has shown ability and, given his wide trip, he probably ran even better than it looked when fourth of ten on handicap debut at Chester (1m2f, good) 13 days ago (winner followed up in a 0-100 handicap at Epsom on Derby Day); respected. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (11) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Minor honours over 1m at Newmarket (good) and Windsor (good to firm) on first two starts, before a lesser show under 7lb claimer on latest outing; one to note stepped up to 1m2f for this handicap debut. |
7/1 |

6th 4 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Respectable C&D debut behind a smart-looking winner and followed that with a keeping-on close third at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last week; the return to a stiff finish may well suit but some tough opposition awaits. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won his first two starts (1m novices on AW) but he's yet to kick on in turf handicaps, initially when fourth of six here (8.5f) in April then fifth of ten at Chester (10.5f) the following month; one of his siblings was a dual 1m4f winner for this yard so maybe the new trip will help. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 (7) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Made most to win 1m novices on AW at Kempton in September and Southwell in March; that perfect start was followed by a lesser front-running effort at Epsom (8.5f, good) on turf/handicap debut but he looks bred for 1m2f. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Overcame a wide stall when springing 28-1 surprise at Kempton in September and kept unbeaten record when defying a penalty on his return at Southwell (also 1m, AW) five weeks ago; will likely be going up in trip soon enough but brings plenty of potential to this turf/handicap debut. |

18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Showed clear promise in novice/maiden events but was 14-1 on handicap debut at Chester (10.3f, good) last month and she finished a well-held sixth of ten; now drops back in grade but this is competitive and she needs improvement. |
14/1 |
|
6th 8 (9) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Minor honours in maiden/novice events at Leicester (7f), Newmarket (1m2f) and Salisbury (1m3f); led over 2f out last time but looked green in front and carried her head a bit high; early days, going handicapping first time. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Promising fourth of 12 on her debut at Leicester (7f, good to soft) in September and filled that same position on her reappearance at Newmarket (1m2f, good; raced freely) 13 days ago; may yet do better. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |

Ten-race maiden who has been out of sorts in his three runs this season; continues to drop down the weights but he needs a big turnaround back at this trip; visor added. |
20/1 |

7th 1 (6) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Second in a maiden here last September; best form in valuable sales races (also 7f) on next two outings but nowhere near repeating it in his two starts this term; hampered early in a York handicap last time (7f; 22-1) and this is a major rethink on his trip, but none too persuasive. |
18/1 |

14th 10 (2) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Ran creditably in valuable contest over C&D last autumn but remains a maiden and has a bit to prove off his mark in this warm handicap; failed to show his form at Thirsk (behind Inishbeg) on reappearance. |

Showed ability in two of his three maiden races in Ireland but well beaten on handicap debut there (1m) in October and a remote last of eight at Chester (1m4f, good; 80-1) on British debut 15 days ago; cheekpieces (worn for his last two Irish starts) return. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Second off this mark to a useful prospect last time and that was better, having run Flat at Chester and then over-raced and not seen out 1m4f at York; had plenty of racing this last year and this, however, and remains vulnerable to improvers. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Said to have run flat at Chester before over-racing and not seeing out 1m4f last time; it's likely this mark is within range but she had plenty of racing last year and has again this term, and she's vulnerable to improvers now. |
4/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |

3yo who was runner-up at Epsom (8.5f, good) in April then went one better Salisbury (good) on her first crack at 1m2f; disappointing at Chester seven days later but that run may have come too soon; stayed on well at Salisbury and could be suited by the step up to 1m4f; in calculations. |
