3rd 8 (9) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Not the easiest to win with but he rewarded strong support when landing a Class 4 handicap at Sandown (5f, good to soft) in August; never dangerous in the Portland three weeks ago but this is more manageable and he finished second in this race last year off a 5lb higher mark. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Not the easiest to win with but he rewarded strong support when landing a Class 4 handicap at Sandown (5f, good to soft) two weeks ago; back up 3lb but that's less of a concern than the stiffer opposition. |

1st 2 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Both wins over 5f; has a hold up style which dictates that he needs things to fall right but he's now 8lb lower than when second to Roach Power at Ascot (5f, soft) last autumn and he didn't run too badly in a series final at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; considered with Roger Teal among the winners. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Two fine runs at Sandown this season and when disappointing at Haydock last time there was a valid excuse (blindfold off late and stumbled at the start before racing furthest from the stands' rail); now 2lb higher but not discounted. |
10/1 |
|
11th 6 (6) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Four-time turf winner, including on soft, who just failed to reel in a very well-backed favourite at Sandown (5f, good to soft) on Saturday; does tend to go well at that track but he runs off the same mark (2lb well in) and is firmly considered. |
13/2 |

2nd 7 (5) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A four-time 5f/6f scorer in 2025, including C&D on soft; resumed from seven months off with an encouraging second of nine to Twilight Calls (won twice since) over C&D (good) in June; first run since when failing to fire at Hamilton last week but could revive back here. |

27th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
He's raced over 5f on his last five starts, winning at Sandown in May and finishing third there last month; jinked/unseated mid-race at Sandown last time; back up in trip today and it may well be a positive as he seemed at home over 7f when fourth in a C&D nursery last September; interesting. |
8/1 |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
1-9, the win coming against his own age-group over C&D (good) in May; best effort since when third of eight back here (good to soft) 13 days ago; has the outside stall, but still respected with cheekpieces given a go. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 10 (10) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Off the mark in C&D handicap (good) in May but has failed to back it up twice since, including here; bounce back needed with Toby Moore taking 7lb off. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Multiple sprint wins on ground ranging from good to heavy; back to best when making all at Sandown in June and he might have needed the run there last week following a break; now goes in cheekpieces which raises a question as blinkers weren't a successful addition in the past. |
8/1 |

4th 4 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
All eight wins have been on good ground or slower, the most recent coming when making all over C&D (good) in June; now 6lb higher having been off since but he ran well off this mark at Bath last October. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Dual turf winner (both over 5f), latest at Chepstow in May (good to soft); good 2l third over C&D last week (good to soft) and one to consider. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins since joining Tony Carroll, the latter in a small-field Class 4 at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) in May; solid effort from a less-than-ideal draw in the Epsom Dash in June; slow start compromised his chance at Sandown but he couldn't be discounted off this mark. |

Two wins since joining Tony Carroll, the latter in a small-field Class 4 at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) in May; solid effort from a less-than-ideal draw in the Epsom Dash in June; off since but he has run well after short break before. |

29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

Maiden winner for another yard; well beaten in all his races for current one and hopes rest on the new visor triggering something. |

16th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a 2yo maiden at Ayr last April for his previous yard; well held on his first three starts for this stable and, although he did run a bit better at Sandown 18 days ago, others look stronger. |

6th 8 (7) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Scored five times last year, including last two attempts in Class 5; far from solid on 2026 form but this drop back in grade may prompt a resurgence off a reduced mark; market support would heighten interest. |
9/2 |

7th 12 (5) |
26th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Had a bumper time of things last year but hasn't come close to the same level in 2026; well handicapped (despite being 2lb out of weights) but leap of faith needed. |
33/1 |

19th 15 (22) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 89y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Had a bumper time of things last year and although he hasn't been at his best in 2026, his handicap mark is tumbling; will be of major interest back on testing ground but the drying forecast isn't optimal today. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

His 2026 form is unconvincing; the step back up in trip may suit (last two starts at 5f) but not a solid option. |

9th 9 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

His 2026 form is unconvincing and the drop back to 5f didn't help at Goodwood last week; dropping down the weights but not a solid option. |
