8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Placed twice in five completions last year, but having been gelded he has run below that form in a couple of handicaps this term; first-time blinkers worn last time are persevered with. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Placed twice in five completions last year, but having been gelded he ran a shocker on last month's Doncaster return (7f, good to firm); blinkers are given a go, but he still has plenty to prove. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Six-race maiden; posted a solid effort when fourth of 13 on his stable debut at Kempton (1m, AW; first start since being gelded) in May but he was tailed off at Doncaster (7f, good) 18 days ago; bit to prove on grass. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Ran encouragingly at Kempton (1m, AW) on stable/seasonal debut, while shaping as if this return to 7f will suit; could go well, provided he's effective back on turf. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Turf winner (good to soft) whose two AW wins came here, latterly over 5f off 1lb lower in March; might have needed it when beaten 6l on his return to turf at Doncaster on Thursday. |
7/4 |

6th 9 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 5 |

Two AW wins for Scott Dixon this winter and he is just 1lb higher than for March's 5f success; finished last at Lingfield in April but that was a stiffer task than this. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Had shown hints of promise on first three starts but was last of 11 on handicap debut at Salisbury (6f, soft) last month in first-time blinkers (removed here); steps up in trip and has questions to answer. |
12/1 |

11th 7 (2) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

He's shown hints of promise among his three starts (including on soft ground) and his pedigree provides optimism that he can prove better than his opening mark; wears first-time blinkers. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Shaped encouragingly when a close third of eight at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in December on final qualifying run but failed to beat a rival home on his handicap debut at Kempton (7f, AW) 19 days ago; may have needed that first start for 136 days but needs to take step forward on this turf debut. |

12th 7 (13) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

A'Ali gelding; has been brought along steadily, nearest at the finish when third of eight in 7f Wolverhampton maiden in December; back from a break with more to offer on his first go in handicap company with Jamie Spencer now up. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Out of the frame in two starts on turf in Ireland (6f/1m) seven months apart, though she did show a hint of ability on both occasions; changed hands for 4,000gns last month; out of an AW winner and worth a market check on stable debut. |
40/1 |

6th 3 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 180y |

Failed to make much impression over 6f at Cork on only start at two, open to improvement with a tongue-tie added; looks the pick of Ken Condon's pair. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Failed to get home over 7f on soft ground when making handicap debut last time; has shown promise otherwise and remains open to progress, being related to several winners (including one at Royal Ascot last week) for her connections; respected back down in trip. |
9/2 |
|
7th 5 (14) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Related to several winners (mostly useful/smart) for her connections; has shown promise at maiden/novice level and looks likely to improve now handicapping with Catterick reappearance under her belt; interesting. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest run, back from a break in a turf sprint, is best overlooked; holds claims on a few of his placed efforts last winter but did look to find this trip stretching him in one previous go (C&D). |
5/1 |
|
13th 13 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

0-9 but placed off this mark in his three runs this year (7f-1m, AW); absent since February and he has a bit more to prove both on turf and over 6f. |

Finished 6l behind the winner when second of nine on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) 15 days ago, but that was still an improvement on previous efforts; each-way claims again. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 9 (3) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Yet to offer much in his three runs, gelded/off five months before coming in ninth of 11 in 6f Kempton maiden last month; needs this switch to handicaps to spark major progress. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
No improvement for handicapping (6f, good and 1m, soft) in May; tongue-tie and cheekpieces added but he has plenty to prove. |
66/1 |
|
9th 8 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Wasn't beaten as far as previously when making handicap debut last time (6f) but achieved another duck egg; form claims are not strong. |
20/1 |
Betting Forcast
4/1 Torbados, 10/1 Hakin Adraar, 10/1 Mister Moet, 100/30 Zoulette, 4/1 Grand Vista, 14/1 Personal Pride, 18/1 Captive Beauty, 10/1 Pennine Way, 7/1 Athenian Spirit, 12/1 Distillation, 100/1 The Floors Munky
Verdict
Zoulette brings recent winning form into the race but she hasn’t fared well with the draw and may prove vulnerable. Grand Vista and the unexposed Pennine Way (second choice) can go well but it might be worth chancing HAKIN ADRAAR now he returns to the AW.[Paul Smith]
