Sky Sports Racing ambassador Hollie Doyle shares her top ten horses to watch in 2026 as the flat season gains momentum. Her list includes Richard Hannon's promising five-year-old, who has shown significant improvement since autumn, and a talented son of New Bay, who made a impressive debut at Chelmsford City. Other notable mentions include a three-year-old Caravaggio gelding, who made a stunning debut at Saint-Cloud, and Aidan O'Brien's son of Wootton Bassett, who is expected to become a serious Derby contender.
William Haggas's Kingman colt, a half-brother to Group 1 star King Of Change, also makes the list, along with a filly who holds an entry in the Irish Oaks. Hollie Doyle's selections offer a mix of established stars and emerging talent, all poised to make an impact in the 2026 racing season.
