19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Looked one to follow when bolting up at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in December and, after a series of misfortunes befell him early in the year, things have finally clicked this summer; saw off his 20 rivals over 6f here last month and then went down all guns blazing in the Stewards' Cup; another 3lb higher today but may not have reached his ceiling; high draw could be a negative. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Looked one to follow when bolting up at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in December; had numerous excuses for a series of subsequent defeats but things finally clicked again at York (6f, good to firm) last week, gamely repelling 20 rivals; 2lb wrong under his penalty but he has Group-race aspirations and shouldn't be passed over lightly. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Climbed the ranks as a 4yo, ending that campaign with placed efforts in the Ayr Silver Cup and at Ascot; down the field on seasonal return but he hasn't looked back since, winning at Epsom (6f, soft) on Derby day for the second year in succession, doing best of the low numbers in the Wokingham (the others in his group have done well since) and then seeing off 19 rivals at the Curragh (6.3f, good to firm) two weeks ago; showed a fantastic attitude on that latest occasion and his 6lb penalty shouldn't prevent another big performance. |

Runner-up in the Ayr Silver Cup (6f, soft) last September when first home on his side; repeated a 2025 Epsom win (6f, soft) early last month; first of his small group when ninth in the Wokingham; generally dependable sort; stable won this in 2016. |

Below his best on his last two runs, most recently over C&D at the Royal meeting; has some good C&D form, however, such as when fourth in both this race last year and the Victoria Cup in May; not ruled out each-way. |

Failed to beat a rival in Group race last time; seemed to run well in the Victoria Cup over C&D in his most recent handicap attempt but was always favourably positioned the way the race went and needs to prove he can back up the form; still on career-high mark. |

Chased home Far Above Dream, beaten a neck with the pair clear, in a C&D handicap in May; again finished behind that rival in the Wokingham six weeks ago (cheekpieces first time) and needs more to win but that is not out of the question. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Missed over a year of his career but returned to action twice since with 6f AW wins, last October and in April; well beaten on heavy in between but fared better at Goodwood (6f, good) in May when going down narrowly to Far Above Dream; has potential but others have more solid form; cheekpieces go on. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Another success story for James Owen, progressing well in 2025 and continuing the good work this time around with wins over C&D and at Newbury (both good ground); another step forward when fourth in the Wokingham, an effort that can be upgraded, and he races off the same mark today; 3-3 over C&D and sure to be popular. |
7/1 |

4th 17 (17) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Three of his last four wins have come at Goodwood (6f; heavy and good ground); probably not too track dependent as he won at Newbury in May but he has more to find on his first run at Ascot, off another career-high mark in a daunting race. |

Well suited by soft/good to soft ground; has a record of 3-4 since wearing cheekpieces, most recently winning at Doncaster (6f) ten weeks ago; respected in the retained headgear, with further progress possible. |
7/2 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Close third behind Dark Thirty in this race 12 months ago; found some progress when cheekpieces were added in October, winning back-to-back handicaps at Pontefract and over C&D (soft; Korker second); perhaps found the heavy ground too much for him when last seen in November; can go well fresh and may find further progress this year; high on the list. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Produced a smart turn of foot to defy a wide draw in a C&D handicap in May; unplaced twice since but her potential hasn't been dimmed, looking stretched by the trip on rain-softened ground at Epsom and then doing best of her group at Royal Ascot; drawn widest again but this mark is unlikely to prove beyond her. |
5/2 |

17th 15 (2) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Developing into a useful 7f filly and did well to win at Chester (good) on seasonal debut, having been drawn wide and come from quite a difficult position; below-par favourite at Epsom on softer ground since but it may be best to forgive that effort; still of interest. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Having edged down the weights he offered a good deal more when third to Tuco Salamanca at Newcastle (6f, AW) in June; finished with a flourish when seventh behind Dubai Bling at Ascot (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago, a run that confirmed he was still in good order; returning to 6f will help and he can't be dismissed, for all that he has been well beaten in this race twice before (2022 and 2025). |

9st 12lb |
Rated 5lb higher than when a close fifth in this race 12 months ago; has done well on AW since, winning at Southwell (well backed) on New Year's Day and finishing a good fourth at Newcastle four weeks ago; not obviously thrown in but could still have a bit more to come. |
10/1 |

4th 4 (9) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Heavily backed when winning a 6f handicap at Southwell on New Year's Day; ran well over C&D a fortnight later but short of his best twice since, including after wind surgery when eighth of 22 at York last month; returning to AW can help and seems highly likely to run his race. |

8/1 |

13th 2 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Began the year with a pair of impressive 5f handicap wins on AW (here and at Southwell) and he didn't have ideal track position when finishing in midfield in a Naas Listed event in April; too bad to be true at York last time; equally effective at 5f and 6f; remains of interest. |

Has raced mostly at around 5f but there was no doubting that this C&D suited him well when he won by a wide margin (good to firm) in June; ran with great credit when eighth of 27 in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood recently, after having to be switched, and looks a likely contender back here. |

He has performed with credit in all three York runs; two fine runs at Glorious Goodwood, notably in the Stewards' Cup in which he would have gone very close to winning granted a clear run at a crucial stage; races off the same mark and has a big run in him. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Hooded all starts for this yard; can lead; has had just three runs in 6f handicaps, improving on a respectable effort in the Shergar Cup here when a ready winner at Goodwood (good to firm) last August; not so good on soft ground in the Ayr Gold Cup after and, while he is likely to do better as a 4yo, he was well held in a Listed contest on his comeback. |

On the up in 2025, completing a hat-trick before fine runs at Royal Ascot and in the Ayr Gold Cup (beaten favourite in this race in between); had a wind operation prior to reappearance but he has finished down the field in both starts since, the Wokingham on latest; down in the weights but a full revival is essential; tongue-tie experiment last time is quickly aborted. |

Profile is hit and miss but conditions won't faze him; he looked good at Carlisle (6f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time) in May and brings relatively low mileage but he was only midfield in the Wokingham and is 1lb higher today, so needs a big personal best. |

Made favourite but lacked experience when tackling the 5f handicap here last June; better form when winning at Haydock (6f, good to soft) last September and, after a low-key reappearance at Newmarket, he impressed when winning at Carlisle (6f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) recently; 1lb well in under a penalty; looks a smart prospect. |

5f win on this card last year and he followed it was a hugely eye-catching third over 5.4f at the Ebor meeting; back in the winners' enclosure at Beverley in April and he has run well in defeat here and at Newcastle on his last two starts; can fluff the start and he still has to prove himself at 6f but there is an air of unfinished business surrounding him. |

Front-runner who performed with great credit on all five starts last season, including a win here (6.5f) in September and a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f); returned after wind surgery with a low-key effort at York last month but he may have need that run and has claims if he can get back near best; acts on most ground and four of his six wins have been at 7f. |
