22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Needs a bit of luck in his races but he scored at Thirsk in June and both runs since have been solid efforts; should get a good pace to aim at and he can go well despite the widest stall. |
11/2 |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Third run for this yard when a head winner at Thirsk (7f, good) and was bang there in a big field at York (good to firm) despite a troubled passage; stays 1m and plenty to like. |

7th Apr 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Thirsk (1m, good) last August on second start and followed up in Newcastle novice (1m, AW) in September; this unexposed 4yo has potential off his opening mark and he's firmly in calculations. |
13/8 |

1st 1 (12) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Confirmed the promise of his Thirsk debut in July (7f, good to soft) by winning a 1m novice back there last month; improvement required to defy a penalty but it's not out of the question. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |

Three good runs since the tongue-tie went on, last time finishing third of five at Nottingham (8.5f, good to firm); each-way chance. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Serial slow starter who ended a losing run off a 4lb lower mark at Doncaster 11 days ago before bumping into a well-handicapped winner over C&D last Thursday; holds claims, especially if he can get away on terms for a change. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Often slowly away, just as he was when winning at Doncaster (1m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) last week having dropped a long way in the weights; has to be respected under a 5lb penalty. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Winless since 2024 but he arrives in decent nick, fourth of 11 in 11.5f handicap at Haydock 13 days ago; ought to be in the shake-up again eased 1lb. |
8/1 |
|
4th 4 (4) |
3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Just one win to his name since June 2023 and he failed to justify favouritism in a similar event at Catterick (1m4f, good) last time, with the reopposing Star Start a place ahead of him second; however, his record in recent years suggests that going softer than good is ideal for him nowadays and this is the first time he's faced such conditions since a respectable reappearance off a much higher mark in the spring; considered. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Just one win to his name since June 2023 and he has found it tough going so far in 2026; he has slipped a long way in the weights though and today's drop in class will help; not discounted. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner who is 2lb lower then when winning at Redcar (7f, good to firm) in April, but his form since then has been patchy; ran with credit in two starts on Tapeta (at Southwell) a year ago, but will need to be at the top of his game and is likely to face competition for the lead. |
33/1 |

9th 3 (5) |
27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |

Two good runs here on fast ground this season, winning over 7f on first occasion; has rather lost his form recently; best form on faster ground. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Proved suited by the return to prominent tactics and held on narrowly in Class 4 contest over C&D (heavy) eight days ago, taking Hamilton record to 3-4; incurs 5lb penalty back up in grade but remains well handicapped on peak form; respected. |
8/1 |

1st 12 (2) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Dual course winner during his progressive spell a long while ago; out of the frame in selling handicap last weekend and current mark reflects a broad decline in his form. |
25/1 |
|
5th 5 (11) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
He's dropped down the weights this year and is one to watch in the betting, but needs to perform considerably better than at Beverley a fortnight ago when returning from a 101-day break. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Ended a long losing run at Carlisle (1m, good) in September and ran creditably when third at Ayr next time; arrives in form but he's 0-8 here and fully exposed. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 (11) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Snapped a losing run dating back to June 2024 when holding on by a neck at Carlisle (1m, good) last week; generally consistent but hardly has the profile of one likely to follow up under a 4lb penalty. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (3) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |

Generally consistent this year but Sunday's York run was a big step backwards; conditions shouldn't be an issue but he has a modest strike-rate and others appeal more for win purposes. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Completed a hat-trick (1m2f/1m, heavy-good to firm) at Thirsk in May and returned to form when runner-up at Nottingham (1m, good) on October 1; well beaten at York (1m2f, good to soft) last Saturday but ran well for a long way and he's not discounted back down to 1m. |
11/1 |

2nd 1 (1) |
1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Compelted a hat-trick at Thirsk (1m, good) in May and he's of interest on that form, but two lesser performances have followed at York and he needs to get back on track. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Ayr winner in July (1m, good to firm) and solid runs since then off today's 5lb higher mark, finishing just ahead of Milteye (Walsingham further back) on his return to Ayr and then beating all bar a Prescott 3yo on the AW; hard to knock. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 (5) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Gained his seventh success when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in July and ran another solid race there last month off the same mark as today's; respected but he is yet to win off a mark this high. |
7/1 |

4th 7 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Kept on well for a seventh career success over C&D 19 days ago but he's gone back up 5lb and has never won anything better than a Class 5; others preferred. |

Goes well here and won over C&D (good to firm) in May; now returns from a break after a rare below-par effort; has run well fresh in the past and he ought to make his presence felt. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Gained a third win when beating Desert Shadow at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in May and he went down narrowly over that C&D (good; third has won since) four weeks ago; leading claims from an unchanged mark. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |

Respectable effort when fourth of 12 at Newbury (1m, good to firm) this month and the return here makes him especially interesting given he is 2-2 over C&D; drying ground a positive. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice over 7f for Richard Fahey in 2024; not added to that tally since, and has been below-par in three starts for new yard; tries a new trip and runs with first-time tongue-tie and blinkers which need to have a positive impact. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice for Richard Fahey in the summer of 2024 but lost his way; sold for 10,000gns to join new yard in October; gambled on but well held on stable debut at Thirsk (7f, good) last month in first-time cheekpieces (now removed); may be worth another chance off sliding mark. |
