19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Began 3yo campaign with a BHA mark of just 61 and went on to win five times (6f-8.6f); returned to action with a huge performance at Kempton (6f, AW) in March, slicing through the field from 2f out, and that positive impression has been confirmed with further wins at Newcastle (6f, AW) and Ascot (5f, good to firm); looked a natural at 5f when winning at the Shergar Cup meeting and the demands of this race will ask different questions; whatever the outcome today he remains a sprinter to keep on the right side. |

10st 0lb |
Progressive last year and he has continued the good work in 2026, winning 6f handicaps at Kempton and Newcastle either side of lesser turf efforts, albeit in hot handicaps; has run well at Ascot in the past and although he has yet to race over 5f, he is a strong traveller who could prove suited to it; interesting. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Blessed with a potent turn of foot and he has been impressive in winning 6f AW handicaps at Kempton and Newcastle this year; a 3lb rise for the latter success five weeks ago doesn't handicap him out of things and he ran well in his one visit to Goodwood; one to be interested in. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; ran right up to his best when second of ten in a Shergar Cup race over C&D (good to firm) four weeks ago; did best of those drawn in double figures at York 17 days ago and should give another good account. |

Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; ran right up to his best when second of ten in a Shergar Cup race at Ascot (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago; runs off the same mark but this looks a deeper event. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; he didn't run badly off his revised mark at Epsom on Derby day and last week's Stewards' Cup was always going to be a tough assignment; this is more suitable but others look better treated. |

Below par in Stewards' Cup but largely in good form over 5f/6f otherwise for current stable, keeping-on third in Shergar Cup Dash most recently; again has place claims. |

10st 0lb |
Better than ever in 2026 and seen to good effect when making all at Ffos Las and Ascot (5f; good and good to firm; acts on good to soft) in midsummer; couldn't cope with a total rise of 12lb in the Shergar Cup since and an easy lead looks unlikely but he could be well positioned from his draw and give it a good shot. |

4th 6 (11) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Made good progress last season and he has improved again this year, finishing third of 17 over C&D on his reappearance and winning at Ffos Las (5f, good) and C&D (good to firm) on his last two starts; up another 5lb but foolish to think he has reached his ceiling. |
6/1 |

1st 6 (6) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Two C&D runs have seen him make the frame in big-field events; easily saw off four rivals in a handicap at Ffos Las (5f, good) 26 days ago; the combination of a 7lb rise and considerably more demanding opposition could scupper a follow up. |

His three good runs this year have all come at Ascot, winning in May (6f, good) and doing best of those in the stands' side group when sixth behind All Ways Glamorous here two weeks ago (cheekpieces on for the first time; first 5f run since 2024); can get it wrong at the start but he has races in him off this mark. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Kept on well when winning a 6f handicap (good) here in May; not so good on his next two starts but he ran well for third back here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; drops back to 5f with cheekpieces enlisted; others preferred for the win. |

Sole visit here yielded a win over this trip (good) in May but he hasn't figured in two subsequent starts, including when always behind at Windsor 11 days ago; hopes rest on a return to this course firing him back up. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Better than ever on turf this year, notably over C&D when winning Listed (beating Likedbymike) in June and good third under top-weight in handicap following month; ground on the quick side when unable to mount a challenge in Shergar Cup Dash at Ascot earlier this month but back to favoured C&D and on easier ground seems sure to make a bold bid. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Ended 2025 with a win in a handicap in Bahrain (5f, good); he has raised his game on turf this summer, winning a Listed race at Cork (5f, good; cheekpieces first time) in June; the cheekpieces were absent when he was a fine third in a Cork handicap two weeks ago, doing best of the far-side group, and another big run seems likely. |
7/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
10st 2lb |
His seven wins include this race in 2024; added a valuable handicap in Bahrain over the winter; bounced back to form after a break when winning a C&D Listed race last month but found Group 2 company too tough at the Curragh last weekend; this is easier despite his hefty weight. |

Group 3 win at Dundalk (only run to date on Polytrack) last October was one of four victories for the year; struggled this season, often being inclined to hang right, and followers will largely be pinning their hopes on the surface switch doing the trick. |

9st 5lb |
Currently 4-8 on the AW and 1-1 on Polytrack (C&D); not a lot has gone right this season and he switches from turf on an attractive mark; will need some luck from a wide stall but is one to consider for a trainer who also runs Michaela's Boy. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Rarely seen on a downhill track but ran a corking race in Group 3 over C&D as 2yo; often well below best in 2026 but intermittent flashes of form have lightened the gloom, including when a close fourth at Pontefract (5f, good to firm; first-time visor, retained) latest; on the risky side overall. |
8/1 |

4th 5 (3) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
His mark continues to fall and there were promising signs at Newcastle (5f, AW) in June; however, two lesser runs have followed and he has to turn things around in a first-time visor (has worn cheekpieces/blinkers this term). |
