9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Five of his six wins have been on the AW, the most recent at Kempton in February when completing a hat-trick; sole win on turf came at Doncaster (good to soft) and he posted a respectable effort there 24 days ago; drops in grade with claims. |
6/1 |

5th 10 (12) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
C&D winner two years ago who tends to stick to the AW these days; back up in the weights following a hat-trick in the winter and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort when last seen five weeks ago. |
10/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-8 here but completed a 6f hat-trick when scoring at Kempton (Polytrack; also won on Tapeta) in February; repeatedly denied a run when unlucky fifth next time and latest third (Hunky Dory fifth) was a solid effort a fortnight ago; considered. |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Unraced on soft; 2-14 on the AW (wins over 7f) compared to 0-11 on turf but it was a good effort when second of ten at Newmarket (6f, good) 24 days ago; contender if handling conditions. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up three times in a row over 7f on AW in the winter and returned to form with a win at Kempton (7f, AW) last month; unproven over 6f and 0-10 on turf, but placed on grass a few times and is not ruled out. |

9st 7lb |
All four wins have been over 6f on the AW, the most recent at Kempton in March; below his best on turf in recent starts but did have an excuse (saddle slipped) at Bath four days ago; best watched. |
14/1 |
|
9th 1 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
All four wins have been on AW over 6f; below form back on turf on his last two starts and blinkers worn for the first time, at Chepstow 15 days ago, are persevered with; best to wait until he returns to AW. |
25/1 |
|
6th 5 (1) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Landed his fourth AW race when scoring narrowly at Kempton (6f) in March; has dipped below that winning mark after three lesser efforts and blinkers go on for his eighth race on turf (0-7). |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All three wins came on the AW when trained by Kevin Philippart De Foy but he's twice been placed on turf since joining this stable, including on soft; well held at Pontefract (6f, good) in April but may have needed that first start for 194 days. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (7) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 7f winner for Kevin Philippart de Foy in 2024; largely in good form for his current yard last term so he's no forlorn hope on his return. |
7/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has proved resurgent with two placed efforts on turf since wearing cheekpieces; still well treated on peak form, which has been achieved on AW; interesting back in this sphere. |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All four wins have been on the AW but he does act on turf; beaten 4l when second of five at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) ten days ago but soft ground would be a slight concern. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |

9st 4lb |
Unraced on soft; runner-up over this C&D last month before going on better at Windsor on good to firm 17 days ago; still fairly treated following a 3lb rise but testing ground would be a concern. |
11/4 |
|
1st 1 (11) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner last spring off a 4lb higher mark who finished a clear second on his return to turf nine days ago; 2lb higher now but having Jack Callan (1-11 for the yard) up to take off 3lb won't hurt; one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 9 (7) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins from 18 starts; dropping to 5f wouldn't have suited at Lingfield in February but he was too free at Kempton (6f) when last seen 78 days ago; switches back to turf with others preferred. |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Six wins include two over C&D and she was runner-up here on heavy ground in September off a 5lb higher mark than today's; below her best in recent starts but probably wasn't helped by racing on the wing at Goodwood four days ago; chance. |
5/1 |

9th 2 (2) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Back on her last winning mark and perhaps stretched by 7f last time when behind Land Of Magic; fine on all surfaces and considered, despite a low draw. |
14/1 |
|
6th 3 (4) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Winner of five 6f handicaps on turf/AW last year; latest performance was a bit better than it looked and she is now back to her last winning mark, but this trip does appear to stretch her. |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
All four wins have been on the AW at Lingfield (6f) but she's posted good efforts on turf on her last two starts, latest when the blindfold came off late at Bath (5.5f, firm) two weeks ago; slower ground probably wouldn't be ideal. |
8/1 |

3rd 5 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Four-time AW winner but 0-9 on turf; ran her best race on grass when second at Windsor 19 days ago (6f, good to firm) but there were no excuses and this is a higher grade. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 (9) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four AW wins to her name but she is yet to show comparable form on turf, including when a beaten favourite at Nottingham 11 days ago; may come good on the grass at some point. |

8st 10lb |
Six-race maiden who was last of 11 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on his stable debut following 627 days ago; never featured over 5f at Lingfield three weeks ago but this step back up in trip may help. |
33/1 |

11th 9 (4) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Four-race maiden in 2024 for George Boughey, close third in Chepstow handicap (5f) the final time; sold for 6,500gns and absent since; market signals may offer further guidance. |

8st 5lb |
3-27, the most recent of those wins coming at Brighton (5.5f, soft) in September; caught wide at Kempton on her first start for 137 days but now has the cheekpieces back on and may take a step forward. |
12/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just 1lb higher than when winning at Brighton (5f, soft) last September but she's not easy to predict and was last of eight at Wolverhampton in December; has bit to prove after that and this is competitive on her return. |
16/1 |
