26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
The vast majority of his recent racing has come at 5f and he's unraced at 7f; however, he wasn't stopping at the line when third here (6f, good) last Saturday and this trip is worth a go. |
20/1 |

3rd 1 (8) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Won the same Class 4 at the other Newmarket track (5f, visored) in July for the third consecutive year; held in a higher grade subsequently but he's now just 2lb higher and this drop back into calmer waters must help; no headgear for his first visit to the Rowley, though. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Back to winning ways in a small-field Class 4 handicap at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) in July; he has come up short twice since and looks vulnerable for win purposes. |

15th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Consistent sort who usually front-runs; has won two of his last three starts (ridden by Olivia Haines), the most recent coming on the AW at Lingfield 12 days ago; up 4lb but has to be respected. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent, straightforward 5f specialist who made it 2-2 on turf here under Olivia Haines in July off 5lb lower; another in-form effort off his revised mark since but does have to prove he's as effective on the AW. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Largely consistent 4yo who won readily under Olivia Haines at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) last month; 5lb higher in a higher-grade race here but ought to give another good account. |

22nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Below par at Goodwood last time but hung right and was perhaps unsuited by the track; in good form on turf otherwise for his new yard this year and he showed promise on Tapeta earlier in his career; possible player. |
10/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Made a winning start for James Owen at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm) in June; three sound efforts have followed and he should give his running. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Twice held since his winning debut for this yard at Brighton (extended 5f) but wasn't beaten far off this mark two runs ago; hard to dismiss. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Started well for this yard but seems to have gone off the boil, safely held when fourth over C&D two weeks ago; needs a revival. |
14/1 |

4th 6 (3) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Started well for this yard but the wheels have come off lately, finishing last over C&D one month ago then finishing tailed off on AW last Monday; not easy to suggest after that. |
20/1 |

11th 1 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
2-5 on AW, most recently at Lingfield (5f) in April off 5lb lower; beaten three times on turf since but can't be discounted back on AW despite going without any aids. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won over 1m at Windsor on good to firm before following up here on good to soft; those were the peaks of his career and he's fallen away in his last two races. |
25/1 |
|
9th 5 (13) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Disappointing at Windsor last time when ahead of the assessor and bidding to take record since upped to 1m to 3-3; too soon to write him off at this distance but task is made harder by revised mark taking effect. |
12/1 |
|
7th 9 (6) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
All his early races at up to 7f but has found the step up to 1m very much to his liking on last two starts, finding plenty in the closing stages over this C&D (good to firm) and then under a penalty at Yarmouth (good to soft); unpenalised today and 2lb lower; good chance of the hat-trick. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Made a winning reappearance at Nottingham (5f, good) in April but he's finished no better than sixth across his four runs since; has to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces (replacing the blinkers adopted last time). |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner who completed a double at Lingfield (6f) in April; now 1lb lower than for the latest success but he's been up and down since and has struggled in three turf runs this season; others preferred. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (7) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seems happier on the AW than turf and is back down to his last winning mark; the eyeshield worn for his consistent string of efforts in the spring is also back, so there are reasons for optimism. |
