19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Winner at Ripon (5f, good) and Windsor (5f, good to firm) this season; acts on soft, but hasn't run up to his best on three previous starts here. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 8 (6) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Dual course winner who isn't too fussy about the ground; had a quiet spell for last trainer but has taken advantage of a handy mark for new yard this year, winning twice over 5f, and he looked to be still in form at Windsor (6f) 19 days ago; shouldn't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
4th 13 (7) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |

Multiple wins include two over 5f for new yard this year, the first under Myla Coppins and the second on this track; did win once over 6f back in 2022 but it's a long time since he played a part over this trip. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Hasn't won at Ascot but she has run several good races at the track; as good as ever this year and she should be heavily involved at the business end of the race. |
7/1 |
|
6th 2 (3) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Likeable 8yo mare with a consistent record and ten wins to her name; as good as ever when third of 23 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last month, keeping on gamely; should go well again off 1lb higher. |
7/1 |

3rd 15 (12) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

An 8yo mare but as good as ever and close up in 5f handicaps this season at this track, Windsor and Ascot; in the mix. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Capitalised on a good mark at Newbury (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; up 4lb but still feasibly weighted and this Royal Ascot winner should make another bold bid. |
7/1 |
|
1st 10 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won this 12 months ago off 9lb higher; 0-15 since and a change of headgear (retained) failed to stop the slide at Ascot three weeks ago. |
6/1 |
|
8th 13 (12) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Won at Royal Ascot in 2023 and second in this race in 2025; the handicapper has been in command for much of 2026 but he went close at Windsor last month; not in the same form at Newmarket two weeks ago but the switch from cheekpieces to a visor could help; contender. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Conditions no problem and he ran creditably for third at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) last month; this is tougher but more minor money could be on the cards. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
In good form at Windsor early in the summer but a couple of below-par efforts since, including back there; wants a proper test over an easy 5f and will need to bounce back to his best off this mark. |
6/1 |
|
11th 11 (1) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a losing sequence over 5f here in June; not at his best when beating just two in 5f Ascot handicap 16 days ago but no surprise to see him bounce back returned to this track. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Not the easiest to win with but he rewarded strong support when landing a Class 4 handicap at Sandown (5f, good to soft) two weeks ago; back up 3lb but that's less of a concern than the stiffer opposition. |
10/1 |
|
1st 2 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Both wins over 5f; has a hold up style which dictates that he needs things to fall right but he's now 8lb lower than when second to Roach Power at Ascot (5f, soft) last autumn and he didn't run too badly in a series final at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; considered with Roger Teal among the winners. |
6/1 |
|
7th 8 (8) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Both wins over 5f; stays further, having finished better than anything when third of 21 in the Portland at Doncaster (extended 5f, good) last September but this is only his second run in a 6f turf handicap (faded in the first of them) so still has stamina to prove. |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Still seeking his first win of the year but he has run some good races, including a second of seven at Sandown on penultimate start; Ryan Moore booked but others may have this 6yo's measure. |
11/2 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Running consistently all season and the handicapper continues to give him every chance (5lb lower than when last successful); ran well on his only previous start here too but he's ultimately made a career of getting beaten at short prices. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Unplaced on last two starts but hasn't run badly and he's 4lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (good) in June; capable of having a big say. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
All five wins over sprint trips, the latest at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June; three lesser runs since and remains 2lb above that winning mark; started his career over 7f (runner-up second start) but has raced almost exclusively over shorter since. |
33/1 |
|
10th 6 (5) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Took advantage of a more favourable mark when winning over this C&D (good to firm) in June, a first win in Britain for over two years; perhaps downhill tracks weren't so helpful in two runs since, at 6f and 5f, but he still has something to find in this company. |
25/1 |
|
20th 13 (10) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Ended a losing run in a Class 4 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month but only fourth of seven when penalised at Epsom; well beaten in his two visits here. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Front-runner who was beaten off only inside the final 1f at Lingfield last time; should make another bold bid but he's still 4lb higher than when making all at Yarmouth in the spring. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 3 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Front-runner who's drawn to attack and boasts a solid record over C&D; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark, though, for a yard also responsible for Ziggy's Missile. |
8/1 |
|
8th 6 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who was found an ordinary Yarmouth handicap when winning easily in the spring; handicapper had his say for that and he finished well beaten behind Dream Composer upped in class at Epsom last time; yard also runs Rhythm N Hooves. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Won two of his five starts as a 2yo, including a wide-margin nursery success at Wolverhampton in November; he hasn't seen his race out in two handicap runs this year (5f/6f) but he should be sharper for last month's return from a break, he represents a yard that excels with this type and he has few miles on the clock; revival not out of the question. |
25/1 |
|
9th 4 (8) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Didn't see out 6f when last seen five months ago (since taken out here on account of unsuitable good to soft ground); needs to prove this mark (11lb higher than when making all in an uncompetitive AW nursery last autumn) is within range. |
