5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Hung sharply left but stuck on well to prevail in 3yo handicap at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm) five weeks ago, proving suited by the return to 7f for the first time this term; below par back over that C&D (good to soft, likely softer) last Saturday but he raced freely and had a possible ground excuse; could bounce back. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Hung sharply left but stuck on well to prevail in 3yo handicap at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm) four weeks ago, proving suited by the return to 7f for the first time this term and taking record to 3-11; may have further progress in him over this trip; major player. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Campaigned over shorter this term, posting a useful AW win on reappearance and not disgraced at Newmarket most recently; showed respectable 7f form as a 2yo, including a good effort in the maiden on this card and a success at Chester; still fairly unexposed over this distance; interesting. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Free-going sort who made improvement over 7f this summer; his form wasn't so hot on good to soft ground on his last two outings but he still showed plenty despite not having a clear way through; needs a second look. |
9/1 |

4th 15 (11) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Midfield in competitive 1m contest at the York Ebor festival last week; steadily progressive at up to 7f otherwise and ties in with Ghost Mode on C&D form earlier in August (ran well despite being indirectly impeded by that rival coming off a true line); shortlisted. |
7/1 |

10th 12 (17) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |

Two 2yo wins (including on soft ground) and back on the scoresheet at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month; another big run when second of 13 at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; he's a headstrong sort but that didn't stop him finishing strongly last time and this first crack at 1m is well worth a go; he's one to consider. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Gelded since finishing last when favourite for the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m); had progressive 7f form previously and recorded a wide-margin success at Newmarket (good) the time before, taking record over this trip to 2211; may still have more to offer and remains of interest. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Yet to run a bad race as the sixth at Newmarket (1m, good) on handicap debut was a close one; back over 7f there and sent off the 4-11 favourite, he romped home by the thick end of 10l to earn today's 11lb higher mark; that rise asks serious questions, but he has the wind in his sails and Oisin Murphy would have had options for this. |
9/1 |

1st 1 (2) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with an AW win over 7f (made most); thoroughly encouraging reappearance here (1m, good) in April on handicap debut, where he looked likely to reward market support but the race slipped from his grasp late on; major chance off the same mark back at 7f. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Won on the nod at Doncaster (good to firm) last time, looking suited by the step up to 7f and surging back to form; unexposed over this trip and may remain competitive, provided he takes to first-time cheekpieces (faced difficult task when once in blinkers). |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Two course wins in June (6f, soft and 7f, good); ran poorly at York three weeks ago and has the widest stall to deal with this time. |
12/1 |
|
19th 19 (3) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Won two in a row at Chester (6f/7f, soft/good) in June and respectable efforts at Chester (7.5f, good) and Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to firm) since; however, he needs something extra on today's first attempt at 1m if he's to land a competitive handicap such as this. |
16/1 |
|
6th 12 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Has form figures of 114, all at Chester (6f and around 7f), since being gelded (maiden previously); not disgraced last time but has something to prove off the same mark switched to a different venue and upped in grade. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Could only manage a midfield finish at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) when bidding for a hat-trick; still has relatively low mileage but this is deeper than the Catterick event he won on his penultimate start. |
7/2 |
|
7th 7 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Took a while to hit the target but he had some notable maiden form, including at this meeting last year, and now bids for a hat-trick after wins under Jack Nicholls at Pontefract (6f maiden, good to soft) and Catterick (7f handicap; good to firm); further improvement is possible; respected. |
13/2 |
|
1st 3 (4) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Wore down a next-time-out winner (pair clear) late on when making it seventh time lucky in 6f Pontefract maiden (good to soft) under Jack Nicholls eight weeks ago; will be equally as effective back at 7f and can be made to look well treated on a few of his runs. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Broadly progressive gelding who has form figures of 11127 in turf handicaps, the latest effort best forgiven (met trouble); ran well in a competitive field over C&D the time before; still 9lb above last winning mark but Harry Vigors takes off a useful 5lb; in the mix. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Made it 3-3 in turf handicaps when overcoming trouble to win a shade cosily at York in May and it was a good second of 17 in valuable event at Goodwood (also 7f, good) ten days later; still progressing and he holds leading claims again. |
4/1 |

2nd 15 (5) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Overcame trouble to win a shade cosily under Saffie Osborne at York (7f, good) last week, taking his record in turf handicaps to 3-3 and record since upped to 7f to 2-2; may well show further progress and defy another rise in the weights; respected. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
The class angle in this field and has earned top weight on handicap debut, having ended his progressive 2yo season with good efforts in a Newmarket Group 2 (7f, good to firm) and Canadian Grade 1 (1m, firm); a likely danger provided he's back in similar form with Listed reappearance under his belt. |
5/1 |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |

Raced four times last year, finishing third in the Group 2 Superlative at this meeting (7f, good to firm) and going close in a Canadian Grade 1 (1m, firm) in September; this is his first run since and William Buick rides Morris Dancer, but it will be no surprise to see a big performance. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |

Won well at Haydock and nearly defied a penalty in C&D contest, narrowly failing to collar a bigger-priced stablemate (newcomer); William Buick prefers Saba Desert but this colt retains potential. |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won 2yo maiden here (7f, good) last September and kept on for promising fifth on handicap debut at Chester (7.5f, good to soft; unraced on softer) in June before doing likewise when short-headed at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in July; may have been unsuited by the track at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) last month and the return to 1m could unlock some improvement. |
8/1 |

11th 9 (13) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Low-mileage colt who registered his 2yo success in a York maiden and posted two sound efforts since handicapping, beaten narrowly by Ironwill at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) latest; may do better still; not ruled out. |

2nd 3 (2) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Plenty of promise on his first three starts, winning a maiden at York (7f, good) last September on his second outing, and things didn't go his way when fifth of nine on handicap debut at Chester (7.5f, good to soft) three weeks ago; unexposed and could build on that latest performance today. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

Won once in Ireland and three times for George Boughey, twice on the AW and in a 7f Epsom handicap on final start for that yard; later sold for 28,000gns; had always worn a hood (also effective in tongue-tie) but went in blinkers on stable debut at Goodwood recently and raced too freely up front; now goes in an eyeshield; bit risky. |
