17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-time AW winner who is 0-24 on turf and usually races over 6f; currently in form, however, and has frame possibilities provided the return to 5f doesn't prove an issue. |

3rd 5 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All his seven victories have come on the AW but he wasn't discredited with fourth of ten in 6f Newmarket handicap 15 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb. |
11/2 |

4th 9 (2) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Multiple AW winner; has shown most of his turf form at Ayr, not disgraced last time; 0-22 in this sphere, so the booking of Oisin Murphy (up for first time) needs to make a significant difference. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Group 3 win at Dundalk last October was one of four victories for the year; has struggled this season but his mark has plummeted as a result and he was better than the result when attracting market support at Lingfield (5f, AW) latest, running on late from too far back; it'll be interesting to see whether his backers return. |

7th 3 (7) |
12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Group 3 win at Dundalk (only run to date on Polytrack) last October was one of four victories for the year; struggled this season, often being inclined to hang right, and followers will largely be pinning their hopes on the surface switch doing the trick. |
14/1 |

Had a fine year in 2025, winning four times including in Listed and Group 3; not in comparable form in 2026 but he has too much ability to be discounted completely. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Has enjoyed a terrific season, including four handicap wins on good/good to firm; last week's second on unfavourable terms in a Beverley conditions race was a career-best RPR; course winner; has to enter calculations. |
20/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Ran well for third behind Jm Jungle in a Listed race here last month but he is 3lb worse off today and has since finished down the field in the Portland. |
8/1 |

17th 4 (22) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
As good as ever as a 9yo, recording four wins this year and running with credit in Listed event at Beverley (5f, heavy) 13 days ago; should run his race but there are likely to be better handicapped opponents today. |

20/1 |
|
8th 4 (8) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Added another two AW wins to his tally earlier in the year; unplaced in three runs back on turf but dropping back into a Class 4 should help; others preferred all the same. |
8/1 |
|
7th 7 (4) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Successful twice over 5f at Southwell this year; ran respectably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) in April but he was laboured in similar conditions at York two weeks ago; has bit to prove again after that and he's never won off a mark this high. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
9yo who has dropped down the weights and showed spark when second of four at Nottingham last month; however, well beaten at Thirsk since and he's winless on turf since September 2021; others appeal more. |
50/1 |
|
12th 9 (5) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Talented veteran but has temperament to match his ability; no turf win since 2021 and when second at Nottingham 11 days ago there were only four runners; more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Winless on turf since 2021 but showed more on his second run back from a break last time, is now 2lb lower and this is easier than the handicaps he's used to contesting; tends to be held up and a speed-favouring 5f in a small field may not be optimal but he's capable. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has won eight times on turf, seven of them over 5f, all on stiff tracks; well drawn, acts well on soft ground, and decent fourth at Beverley last time; interesting in first-time headgear. |
9/2 |
|
4th 9 (7) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Positives include a penchant for soft ground and a C&D record that reads 1166126113; beaten in a Class 4 handicap last month though and she faces a stiff task in this company. |
40/1 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Five wins and a second from nine attempts over C&D; ended 2025 in flying form and returned off a brutal mark as a consequence; handicapper relenting now and her third at Nottingham 13 days ago was a step back in the right direction; this should be run to suit and she's a strong contender. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Seven Newcastle wins last year, latterly off 8lb higher; didn't shape with obvious promise when sixth back on AW at Southwell latest but the second/third from that race have won since and he could revive back here. |
7/2 |
|
6th 7 (4) |
26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Seven Newcastle wins to his name last year (fine here too), latterly off 6lb higher; will appreciate the return to Tapeta, having been cut a bit of slack by the handicapper following a few runs on turf; one to consider. |
7/1 |
|
6th 8 (3) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Soft ground was probably against him on latest outing; won six times on AW last year and, although he's taken minor honours on all three starts at this track, including two this summer, he does not look the percentage call with his 1-27 strike-rate on turf. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

3rd 8 (3) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten just a nose at Newcastle (5f, AW) in March and close fifth of 13 over this C&D (good) last month; might not be far away if he's on a going day but he's been up and down this season and was soundly beaten at Thirsk (5f, good) last time. |

Better on AW than turf but handicapped accordingly; not beaten far at Wetherby on his penultimate start but this is a better race and he has since finished down the field at Wolverhampton. |
16/1 |

8th 3 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has won here but at his best at Newcastle where he has gained his last four wins; can ruin chance by starting slowly but is not firing on all cylinders at present anyway; best to wait until he returns to Newcastle. |
16/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Better on the AW, but has a 15lb lower rating on turf; Newcastle winner in March; not disgraced on latest turf start at Beverley last month, but modest effort in a visor (on again) on Tapeta last time; a possible. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

12-time winner, three of them here (5f/6f); not beaten far on last two starts and is on a fair mark so could go well. |
7/1 |
