4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Soft-ground Listed winner last autumn; best effort this term when second to Quinault in 7f Group 3 at York (good) in June; ran poorly with cheekpieces added (retained) in a Doncaster Group 2 last month but he's a major player if back to anywhere near his best. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Defied a 5lb higher mark in the 7f handicap at this meeting three years ago and scored over 1m on AW in January; has lost his form, most recently finishing last in the Newbury event won by Classic; further Royal Ascot glory looks unlikely. |
50/1 |

15th 4 (14) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
His only turf wins came in a Royal Ascot handicap and Newbury Group 3, but they were in 2023 and he needs the cards to drop right for his late bids; scored on AW in January but subsequent form, including when 40-1 in the Victoria Cup last Saturday, isn't good enough. |

30th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Finished close up in fifth in the Britannia Stakes at Royal Ascot last year (1m, good to firm); his 3yo campaign rather fizzled out but he dropped in the weights as a result and took full advantage with his 7.6f success here 24 days ago; well drawn again and a 4lb rise isn't beyond him. |
5/2 |

1st 11 (2) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Fifth over C&D (good) at this meeting last year on his first outing for Ian Williams and followed that with a very good fifth of 30 in the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm); failed to match that level later in the campaign but his mark has dipped and dangerous if bouncing back to form after a winter break; a good draw and Billy Loughnane in the saddle are positives. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Rated much lower on turf (2-20) than on the AW (5-22); hasn't run at all badly in his last two starts on grass including when eighth of 28 in the Victoria Cup; each-way claims down another 2lb. |
12/1 |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Not disgraced in the Victoria Cup last time but, generally speaking, is perhaps still on a difficult mark on turf; gained last three wins on Newcastle AW and has shown peak form there. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Effective on turf but still has a better strike-rate on AW and ended his rather truncated 2025 campaign with defeats (admittedly not entirely disgraced) in major handicaps over this C&D, finishing sixth then ninth; needs to raise his game on reappearance. |
16/1 |

9 (14) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Couple of sound efforts back on turf since his productive spell on AW; has something to find with Akkadian Thunder on Royal Ascot running last time but that effort suggests he could be set for further prize-money, which again goes down to sixth place. |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Useful 2yo, including a 1m AW win; good second in a local Group 2 in Qatar in February and followed that with a Listed second at Lingfield two weeks later (both 7f); back up to 1m for his handicap debut; unexposed but has an eight-month break to overcome. |

Slow-starter; on a dangerous mark but he is without a win since October 2023 and one 7f run didn't see him improve for the trip. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Useful on his day but is on a long losing run and has a doubt over current form; by no means sure to take advantage of a reduced mark. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Made it 3-4 on the AW when coming from off the pace to collect at Southwell (1m); was aided by a collapsing pace but he looks progressive; just 3lb higher. |

13th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 3 |

Took his AW record (all over 7f) to 311 with Kempton win last time and that form has worked out well; likely to be as effective back at 1m and show further progress in this sphere; major contender. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Showed notable handicap form in 2024 but has posted duck eggs in three runs since that campaign and needs to prove he retains ability; best watched on second run for new yard, unless the market suggests otherwise. |
25/1 |
|
20th 19 (15) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Well treated on his 2024 form for Jack Channon and he won the Spring Mile at Newbury (1m, good to soft) on his reappearance that season; however, just two runs last term, finishing down the field in April/May, and he has plenty to prove making his stable debut after an absence; blinkers go on. |

Won at Thirsk (7f, good) last month on third stable start and close second at Chester (7f, good) subsequently; won here in September 2024 on sole previous course visit and this in-form 4yo could again be thereabouts. |
10/1 |

2nd 12 (8) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Course winner (7.6f, soft) for Andrew Balding last summer; not beaten far in the 7.6f handicap won by Supido 24 days ago (poor draw) and confirmed that promise with a Class 3 win at Thirsk a fortnight ago (7f, good); a 3lb rise shouldn't prove beyond him and Warren Fentiman's claim is a bonus. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Likes to push the pace and seems versatile ground-wise; his win over slightly shorter here (good) was the middle leg of a summer hat-trick last year and it was a fine effort when close third in Listed Flying Scotsman at Doncaster in September; has a good stall to go forward but his no-show on return to turf (66-1; drawn wide) a fortnight ago needs glossing over. |
25/1 |

9st 9lb |
2-2 in nurseries last July (7f, good/heavy) and close Listed fifth at Lingfield (7f, AW) this February; has top weight in this hot handicap but 7lb claimer is recruited and the step up to nearly 1m may help. |
