8st 13lb |
Gained a second success of the season on her first go over 1m4f in nine-runner York handicap four weeks ago; up 2lb but she must enter calculations if her stamina holds out over this longer trip. |

Three nursery wins last year (7.4f-8.4f) and back on the scoresheet at Haydock (1m, good to firm) in April; again ran well when fourth at Nottingham (1m2f, good) recently; in the mix if seeing out this new trip. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
On a long losing run and never a threat here two weeks ago, but he'd previously been beaten just a nose in the Queen Mother's Cup over C&D in June; none too reliable but a danger to all if he's on a going day. |
7/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Slow starter whose losing run goes back 17 races to March 2025; however, he went down by only a nose over C&D (good) last month and was caught too far back in a Class 2 at Ayr since; bold show likely with his sights lowered. |
6/1 |

9th 11 (11) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Slow starter whose losing run goes back 16 races to March 2025; however, he's been second on three of his last four starts, most recently at York (1m4f, good) last Saturday; slow ground is probably fine; each-way chance. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won a juvenile hurdle for Gavin Cromwell at Punchestown (2m, good to yielding) in October and was also on target in 2m2f Flat marathon for new stable in June; still unexposed over jumps; no surprise if he features. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (10) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Sole run on good to firm was last July when tailed off in a novice race; staying-on third here (1m4f) this June and he knuckled down well to score over 2m2f at Pontefract (also on good) eight days later; that win was the first time he'd worn this headgear combination and his first go at a staying trip on the Flat; up 4lb but probably has more to offer and he's a big player if he goes on the ground. |

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. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
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 |
|
4th 9 (7) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
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. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Held off his revised mark on turf since two AW wins, including here, in April; wins have all come over shorter but he stays this far and is one to consider back on Tapeta. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (6) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
All four wins have been between 6f-8.5f on AW; has been below his best at York on last two starts and was reported to have run flat last time; drops back to a more suitable trip but he's still 4lb higher than for his last success; may be best watched until he returns to AW. |
6/1 |
|
13th 11 (13) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Thoroughly exposed 5yo who was in fair form until here last time when never involved from off the pace; has never won off this high a mark but what does bode well is that his last three wins have come in amateur races under Henry Callan who is back aboard for the first time since his last win in April; the cheekpieces also return after going in a new hood last time. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Gained most recent win last August; below par in the latest of his two starts this term but is interesting on historical data, having defied a 2lb higher mark at Sandown on Eclipse day four years ago; drops in class. |
7/1 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Two wins last year (1m4f/1m6f, AW/good to firm) and reappeared with close fifth of eight at Newmarket (1m4f, good) last month; Brodie Hampson is a positive booking; could build on that latest effort provided the reapplied cheekpieces aren't a negative (pulled up over hurdles when worn once previously). |
11/2 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Exposed 8yo but he's still capable of useful form and scored at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last March; also won over 1m6f on the July course (good to firm; first-time blinkers) in August; returns on a stiff-enough mark with no headgear but they might go a solid gallop which can help. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
He's edged down the weights for his new yard this season and has been placed off this mark on his last two starts, finishing third at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) then beaten just a neck at Hamilton (1m5f, good); back up in grade this afternoon but he might not be far away. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
A fairly useful 1m4f winner for Ralph Beckett in 2025; has steadily found his form for his current yard this season, posting a good third of eight in 1m2f handicap at Doncaster eight days ago; firmly in the picture stepping back up in trip. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |

Capable handicapper off this mark but has gone badly off the boil in last three races, admittedly in higher grades; still has a bit to prove now and failed to fire on his previous visit here. |
10/1 |
|
8th 4 (2) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Good third over 1m4f on Kempton AW in March and again ran well when filling the same position at Pontefract (1m2f, good) in April; a case can be made on those efforts but subsequent evidence suggests he's gone off the boil. |
12/1 |

8th 8 (8) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Five-time winner who has been operating close to his best in defeat this year but not last time at Epsom when in first-time cheekpieces; even if back on song, others are more intriguing. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Awarded C&D Queen Mother's Cup last June and much lower in the weights now, but that's because his form has fallen off a cliff; dangerous if blinkers (replacing other headgear) spark a revival but carries clear risks. |
40/1 |
|
9th 3 (6) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Awarded this race last year when also ridden by Becky Smith, and 6lb lower this time around; can't be totally written off but he's gone the wrong way over the last 12 months and was well beaten at 100-1 here last month. |
5/1 |
|
15th 8 (12) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Promoted to first in 1m4f handicap here (good to firm) last June and he races off 2lb lower today; however, he wasn't at his best last year on his final few runs for Edward Bethell, and failed to threaten over hurdles in the winter on his first two starts for this yard; may be best watched. |
