A two-time 1m/7f scorer last summer; lightly raced since and failed to build on solid reappearance Ascot third when only tenth in 7f Goodwood handicap last month; needs to bounce back. |

Low-mileage 5yo who has gained both wins (7f/1m) on good to firm; grabbed third place on line over 6f for an encouraging reappearance effort and looks interesting back up in distance, with further improvement still a possibility. |

9st 13lb |
All three wins at around 7f on good or good to firm ground; possibly unsuited by 1m on soft at Goodwood last time; 7lb below last winning mark and could be dangerous under optimum conditions. |
9/1 |

4th 5 (8) |
12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
All three wins at about 7f on good and good to firm; has more to prove at 1m but previous handicap attempts at the trip were in better company than this and it's likely he will stay this far round here; can go well following a creditable show at Beverley recently; Lewis Kent 2-2 for yard. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won two AW races for Andrew Balding whom he left for 60,000gns; he's not always looked entirely straightforward but he was less than 2l away last time at Newmarket (7f, good) after being in rear at one point; Tom Marquand takes over now; respected. |

Picked up from Andrew Balding for 60,000gns not long after an AW win (1m) this time last year; not the easiest (can lug left) and will need to settle better after a spell sprinting, over tonight's stiff 7f, but he's capable off this mark if things fall right. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Exposed mare who is 6-45 on turf; beaten in claimers on final two runs in Ireland in May and was well held in an Epsom handicap (6f, good; 33-1) on recent stable debut; has something to prove and all of her wins have been over further. |

Exposed mare who was 6-44 on turf in Ireland; beaten in claimers on her two starts last month (7f and 1m, turf/AW) so it will be interesting to see how she goes in the market on this first stab at 6f since her only attempt over three years ago; stable debut. |

Has a suitable scenario as his form over C&D includes a win last summer and he turned in a resurgent effort on latest outing; has something to prove at this level, however, having raced only in lower grades. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Yard having a quiet year thus far and this gelding is a deal higher (12lb) in the weights than when winning this in first-time cheekpieces 12 months ago; not in much form this season and has to prove this mark is within range on turf. |

9st 9lb |
Didn't have to improve to reward odds-on backers in a 7f maiden at Catterick in May; creditable fifth in a 1m handicap at Goodwood two weeks ago and the return to 7f in a slightly weaker race should see him on the premises. |

Runner-up in a handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month and got off the mark at the eighth attempt when landing a steadily run maiden at Catterick (7f) 20 days ago; steps up in trip (his brother stays a 1m) and has place claims returned to a handicap. |

Consistent this year and recorded a clearcut win at Lingfield (7f, good) returned to turf last time but everything went his way (made all against favoured near rail); no certainty to defy a 6lb rise. |

9st 1lb |
All three wins have come over 7f and latest was at Southwell in March; creditable third back there next time but has found it harder on turf since; has returned to the mark he defied at Southwell but has too much too prove, including stamina for 1m (remote last of four previous attempt). |

All three wins have come over 7f and latest was at Southwell in March; only 2lb higher than for that win but he's finished down the field in last three runs and he's the most exposed runner in this line-up; passed over. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Quite useful for Eve Johnson Houghton at two, including making all in a C&D maiden (good); not at best in two outings for new yard (same owners) this spring so her hopes are pinned on a return to Epsom sparking a revival. |

Useful filly for Eve Johnson Houghton, readily made all in Epsom maiden (7f, good; Assaranca 4l second) in July; transferred to Neil Mulholland (same owners) but it was a low-key start when last of six in conditions race at Kempton (1m, AW) on her comeback in March; needs to put that behind her on this handicap debut. |

Was returning from a layoff when third of six on Chelmsford AW in March and was all the better for that run when hanging on grimly to his lead in a C&D maiden last month, until seen off late by a Listed-class rival; left Andrew Balding for 35,000gns since; form claims on handicap debut. |

Very pleasing return from 275-day break at Leicester this month; lacked a change of gear at Newmarket (also 7f) subsequently and returning to 1m looks in his favour; draw hasn't been kind, though. |

0-9 but consistent last year and may well have made a winning reappearance at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last Saturday but for blowing the start (hasn't tended to be an issue in the past); key player. |
