10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Made all at Yarmouth (good to firm) on his April return and it was a fine effort when third at Newbury (also 1m2f, good) a fortnight later; couldn't maintain his lead in better events subsequently but this drop back in grade should see him last longer. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Made it 2-5 when making all in Yarmouth handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his reappearance in April; creditable third at Newbury the following month but he flopped when joint-favourite at Redcar last time; has bit to prove again after that and he could have competition for the lead back on AW. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Course winner who won two in a row last May (1m, good) and is 4lb below his last winning mark; showed some spark at Meydan in January but hasn't shone in Britain on his two runs since and needs to turn things around. |
20/1 |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Two 1m good-ground wins last spring include a defeat of Classic Encounter at Newmarket; creditable fifth of 16 at Meydan in January and although his return to these shores didn't go well when tailed off at Newmarket (raced too freely) in April, he's dipped below his last winning mark; considered. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Four-time turf winner who scored off 1lb higher over C&D last autumn; took a while to get going this season but he's been placed at with cheekpieces added in his last two runs (1m, good to firm); usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck. |

3rd 2 (1) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Had a fine year in 2025 and he spent the spring in the handicapper's claws; offered more encouragement when tried in cheekpieces at Newbury (1m, good to firm) 17 days ago; should have a big run in him. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Easy winner of a Bath novice (1m2f, good) in April but he's been disappointing in two handicaps since; still lightly raced but he has hung right a few times and he needs to find more progress. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Holds his form well and wasn't beaten far into fifth of 13 here (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago (Nakaaha 3l behind in sixth); has won twice over this trip, but a suspicion that 7f suits him best. |
10/1 |

5th 1 (13) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Holds his form well despite a busy schedule and appeared to appreciate the drop in trip when beaten half a length into second of 22 at York (7f, good) last time; up 2lb but this is a slightly weaker race; respected. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Often pulled hard last year and was gelded over the winter; this season his issue has been blowing the start and that's what cost him any chance last time; up to winning off this mark but has to be considered risky now. |
7/2 |

4th 7 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Brighton novice winner last season at 1m; gelded in November; perhaps needed his first run back and then he stuck on gamely for a close third at Windsor (1m, good to firm); could step up again but will need to in this better race. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Largely consistent filly who came good at 11th attempt, with win from off the pace at Windsor (1m, good to firm; second a next-time-out winner) last month; only 3lb higher here and likely to play another major role. |
15/8 |

1st 2 (7) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Generally consistent maiden whose efforts over further of late suggest she may show improvement for this return to 1m; possibilities off a reduced mark in third handicap attempt. |
