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

Impressed with two C&D wins during the winter and could leave subsequent struggles behind back on this surface; shouldn't be handicapped out of it. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

Two impressive 7f wins on AW this winter; not so good in deeper company back on turf last month but he drops back in trip and doesn't look impossibly treated. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
His two runner-up efforts in a Qatar conditions turf event and Lingfield Listed race (also 7f, AW) last spring would give him serious claims off this mark; didn't beat a rival in three subsequent handicaps but he had been gelded when showing more at Newcastle last time; that came after a 127-day break and he could go well at potentially big odds. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Very lightly raced since winning two 2yo novice races in autumn 2024 (7f, AW); returned from another absence at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in April, having been gelded, and ran well in second of six; could have part to play. |
16/1 |

2nd 4 (5) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice as a juvenile, including when justifying favouritism in a Kempton novice (7f) in October 2024; has raced just once since, finishing well down the field on handicap debut at Goodwood (7f) nearly 11 months ago; 3lb lower, and now gelded; monitor only. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who ended a long losing run with a dominant display over C&D (good) last month; struggled on his return visit three weeks ago but that was the Bunbury Cup and he remains well treated on his old form; respected on this big drop back in grade. |
6/1 |
|
12th 14 (8) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Has gradually come to hand for new stable and made all, unchallenged, over C&D (good) most recently; 3lb ahead of the assessor under a penalty but another easy lead isn't certain; back up two grades. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins as a 3yo, the latter a C&D handicap off 1lb lower last October; good runs in defeat on his last two starts (7f, soft and good to firm); should make another bold bid. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Both wins have been over 6f, the most recent at Salisbury (good) in October off a 1lb lower mark than today's, but he went over today's trip at Goodwood (soft) last month; likely has quicker ground conditions today but has good claims. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) in April; reached the frame in next two starts but his form nosedived in a big field at Ascot (last of 16) last time; has a bit to prove after that but this is a big drop back in grade and he's a player if he can bounce back. |
13/2 |

16th 15 (17) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) in April and has continued in good heart on his two outings since; however, he's up in grade this afternoon and needs something extra. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Front-runner who went off too fast for his own good over the extended 7f here two weeks ago and folded, which was also the case in his two previous runs; on a handy mark if he did get any freedom up front, though stamina doubts remain over quite this far. |
33/1 |
|
9th 2 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Front-runner who has won four times since blinkers have been added and latest was over 7f here (good) in May; well held in his last two runs (1m2f/1m) but he's now only 2lb higher than for his last win and is well drawn back at this trip; not ruled out. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to win a handicap but not for a lack of effort and he ran well for second over C&D last month; perhaps stretched by 1m2f at Lingfield last month and he is one to take seriously back down in trip. |
3/1 |
|
11th 8 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win came in a Lingfield maiden (6f, AW) a year ago, but is back off the same mark as when beaten half a length over C&D (good to firm) in May; soft ground not a problem and each-way claims if reproducing that form. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Has shown most of his AW form at Kempton but ran creditably at Southwell most recently; makes Wolverhampton debut with a tongue-tie replacing usual hood; brings uncertainty. |

3rd 4 (1) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Ended 2025 with two good placed efforts at Kempton; not at the same level at Lingfield last month and he has a bit more to prove on Tapteta. |

Both wins on the AW but he bled when disappointing at Nottingham before a solid 2l defeat in a big field at Ascot (7f, good to firm); he was boxing on that day and now returns to a mile; respected. |

5th 1 (6) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Best form (and both wins) on the AW; bled from nose back on turf when only eighth of 11 at Nottingham two months ago; needs to bounce back after a break. |

0-9 on the AW but he has gone close on two occasions, including when beaten a head at Lingfield (7f) in December; below his best on his next two outings and was last of seven at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month; needs to take a step forward. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 (7) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who won two 7f turf handicaps last summer; also close second off 1lb higher at Lingfield (7f) in December but his form dipped in two subsequent starts last winter; off for 169 days so his peak fitness has to be taken on trust. |

9st 2lb |
Ended 2025 with a 6f win at Lingfield (Polytrack) for Harry Charlton; his best effort in four runs for current yard was a second at Newbury in June but he's not easy to predict and was disappointing at Windsor last time; risks attached. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Ended 2025 with a 7f win at Kempton (cheekpieces first time); well beaten at Goodwood 17 days ago on his return from a 175-day break (gelded during the absence); better than that but still not easily recommended. |
20/1 |
|
23th 3 (14) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Responded well to first-time cheekpieces (retained since) when successful over 7f at Kempton in December; no more than a respectable fourth back there (7f again) two months later and off since (has been gelded); Clive Cox is among the winners but others arrive with more pressing claims. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Course regular who won this race last year off 4lb lower; won again over C&D in January and secured a third success when bagging Lingfield handicap (7f, Polytrack) in April; now just 1lb higher after three lesser efforts and he's not readily dismissed. |
20/1 |
|
4th 2 (7) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
All three wins have been on Polytrack and latest was over C&D in April; only 2lb higher than for that success but he's been well held in both subsequent runs (AW/turf) and needs to rediscover his spark. |
