29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Lost chance by blowing the start last time; prevailed narrowly off 1lb lower in Class 4 event over C&D (soft) in June but needs to prove he has the required quality at this better level. |
33/1 |
|
7th 3 (8) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent but he won at Goodwood (7f, soft) in June and wasn't beaten far when seventh of 17 at York (7f, good to firm) last time; his career-best performance came when winning easily over C&D (good) last June and he's an intriguing candidate back here; capable of playing a leading role. |
9/1 |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
In fine form last spring, winning three times including over C&D; cheekpieces returned at Goodwood last month and he recorded a narrow soft-ground success; 2lb rise shouldn't handicap him out of things and faster ground should be beneficial. |

4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Course win (6f) on debut; had been knocking at the door this summer prior to a disappointing run at Salisbury last month; return to 7f needs to have a positive effect. |
10/1 |
|
5th 2 (2) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins as a 3yo, the latter a C&D handicap off 1lb lower last October; good runs in defeat on his last two starts (7f, soft and good to firm); should make another bold bid. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Both wins have been over 6f, the most recent at Salisbury (good) in October off a 1lb lower mark than today's, but he went over today's trip at Goodwood (soft) last month; likely has quicker ground conditions today but has good claims. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Latest win came in a claimer and he was never a threat back in a handicap at Chester last time; fully exposed and others appeal more. |
22/1 |

7th 12 (5) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Normally ridden to be produced late, as when successful at Salisbury (7f, good) in June, but was given a straightforward ride to land a claimer over C&D (good) 20 days ago; this looks tougher however and more is required. |
14/1 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
The last run wasn't his best (four ran) but he was bang there in his four previous races, all handicaps at 7f/1m; drops into a claimer on favourable terms and must have every chance; has run well here before. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ran away with a C&D handicap on soft ground last September; also won by a wide margin at Lingfield (7f, good) in May but she has struggled since; dangerous mark again now but not the only pace influence in this field. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (2) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Made all for an emphatic win on turf here (7f, good) in May but her form has nosedived at Kempton and Epsom in last two starts; now only 4lb higher than for that last success but she needs a major revival back in trip. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (3) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Gained this season's win at Lingfield (7f, good), where she was allowed to dominate against the favoured nearside rail; also suited but this C&D but ran poorly on Polytrack ten days ago and would appeal more on slower ground. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Without a victory since 2024 and he was retried in a visor when beating one in 6f Hamilton handicap 11 days ago; blinkers and tongue-strap are fitted here. |
25/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Well handicapped on his old form but last win was over two years ago and he's been out of sorts this season; this drop back in trip is no problem but he needs a major revival; visor reapplied. |
25/1 |
|
18th 10 (7) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run stretches back over two years; best effort this year when fifth of eight over 7f at Goodwood (soft) on Sunday, but he'll need more if he's to exploit his reduced mark. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Reliable 5yo who was too strong for Dion Baker here last month and now bids for a hat-trick off 4lb higher; solid chance. |
6/4 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Fairly reliable 5yo who kept on well for narrow success at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; subsequent 2lb rise is manageable and this longer trip also suits; probably won't be far away. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (1) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 6f handicap at Kempton in January and he has run several good races since, notably a narrow defeat back at Kempton two weeks ago; Billy Loughnane retains the ride; as this 5yo showed at Ascot in May, he's a strong contender back on fast turf. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Has had plenty of racing since winning on the Rowley course (7f, good) under Chloe Lyons in May but he found something new when striding right away over this C&D (good to firm) on Saturday; due an 8lb rise so 3lb well in; much respected. |
9/4 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
He was having just his second start on turf when a ready winner at the other Newmarket track (7f, good) in May; finished runner-up on his last three starts, twice over C&D including last time under Chloe Lyons, and now takes a drop in class; has to be considered. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 8 (7) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won on the other course here (7f, good) in May and he's finished runner-up over C&D and at Epsom (7f, good to firm) in last two starts; was beaten 3l last time but that was behind an improver and he's 1lb lower here; possibilities. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Has won two of his last four races, with the latest at Lingfield (visor remover; 1m, AW) quite decisive at the finish; carries no penalty and he's 6lb well in; 0-9 on turf but effective on the surface. |
100/30 |

1st 2 (3) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Course winner over 7f three starts back off 9lb lower; went close at Southwell (7f, AW) when ridden by Jude Fernandes next time but blew his chance by hanging right over this C&D three days ago; visor is removed and he needs to bounce back. |
4/1 |
|
5th 2 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Took advantage of a career-low mark when scoring here (7f) last month; a shade unlucky when beaten a short head at Southwell (7f, AW) since and should not be far away. |
