10th 7 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
7-24 with his last win coming when joined on the line at Ripon (1m, good; 3-1 favourite) in April 2025; struggled on AW through the winter (0-4), and was pestered for the lead, weakening to finish fifth (beaten 8l), at Ripon five weeks ago; an easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |
16/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Dead-heated over C&D (good) last April and went very close at Carlisle in June; well handicapped on that form but a long way below his best on AW this year; the return to turf needs to trigger a major revival. |
16/1 |
|
8th 5 (10) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Two C&D wins on his record but he has finished down the field in three runs back from a break this year; only dropped 3lb for those defeats and he may need some more help from the handicapper. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Front-running 11yo with seven course wins, the latest gained over 1m (good) last spring; creditable placed efforts on his last three starts (including C&D) and should give it another good shot, for all this is a higher grade than he's been contesting. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 9 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
11yo who won three times last year, including this race (good to firm); this front-runner has been placed at Pontefract (1m, good) and Ripon (1m2f, good) on his last two starts; 3-5 at Ayr and he's on the shortlist. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
14-time winner including seven times at Ripon; his last success was off 5lb higher last summer and he returned to form with a second at Pontefract (1m, good) last month; hasn't run over this far for a long time but he used to be effective at this trip and most of his wins have been in May-August. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Notched two wins over this trip at Catterick last October and he has returned in fine form, making much of the running when a close third over C&D (good ground) last month; solid claims again from an unchanged mark. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won a pair of 7f handicaps at Catterick last October; returned from a 142-day absence with a fine third at Newcastle three weeks ago, doing best of the smaller stands' side group; runs off the same mark today and should make another bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ended a long losing run with back-to-back wins from the front over 7f at Catterick last October; found out in a higher grade at Musselburgh on final start; fifth is the best he's managed in four AW starts (all here) and it's likely best to look elsewhere on reappearance. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Enhanced his good Ripon record with a narrow win over this trip on good to soft last month; faded to finish well held at Chester since (Londoner ahead of him) but a revival can't be ruled out back here. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (14) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins last year, one of them over C&D, and he's back on the scoresheet already after his narrow win at Ripon three weeks ago; up 5lb and drawn widest, but the first two were clear last time and he's never been better. |
16/1 |
|
1st 2 (3) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins last year (various ground), two of them over C&D, and campaign concluded with good third at Redcar in November; respectable reappearance run at Doncaster recently and could show the benefit of that outing today. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Four wins for William Muir and Chris Grassick; winless for current yard last year and has dropped to a career-low mark on first run for 209 days; may be best watched this time. |
16/1 |
|
1 (7) |
30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in March off a mark 10lb higher than today but he's mostly struggled since; returns to 1m and drops in grade with the cheekpieces back on and tongue-tie removed. |
13/2 |

1 (6) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good) in March off a 7lb higher mark when tongue tied first time but, with that equipment retained, he's mostly struggled since; needs a revival. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Already a three-time scorer (around 1m) in 2025 and he comes here on the back of a very good second of 13 in 1m Newcastle handicap; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (12) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Career win number eight when prevailing narrowly in a Class 4 at Beverley (extended 1m) and tends to find Class 2s too tough these days, so excused his Doncaster run; only 1-17 on the AW but could be a factor. |
14/1 |
|
10th 12 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Tough sort but has done his winning this year in Class 4, including at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) last time when taking record to 8-55; faces a tougher task back up two grades. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Rolled back the years with a front-running 1m2f win at Ripon ten days ago; only has a 4lb penalty to deal with and Jake Dickson is good value for his 7lb claim; unlikely to get a soft time of things up front though. |
9/4 |
|
1st 10 (1) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Grand veteran striving to maintain his record of winning at least once every year since 2017; not the force of old and although he is down to a career-low mark, this looks a tad too competitive for him nowadays. |
14/1 |
|
9th 10 (11) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
12-time turf winner including over C&D; hasn't made a serious impact in his two runs (1m) this season but he's now back on last winning mark and could be dangerous back up in trip; one of three runners for the yard. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
9yo who is winless since June 2024 and is nothing like the force of old; however, his recent 4l fourth of eight at Hamilton (8.3f, good) wasn't devoid of promise and he's another 3lb lower today; not ruled out each-way. |
16/1 |
|
4th 2 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Useful C&D winner at his best, but this veteran is without a victory since June 2024 and has offered little in a pair of handicaps (around 1m) at Doncaster and Beverley this spring; cheekpieces are retried. |
10/1 |
|
8th 2 (12) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Useful miler in his prime but his last win was almost two years ago and he's been well held at Newcastle and Doncaster in last two starts; continues to drop down the weights but others are preferred. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Four C&D wins, including when justifying favouritism in January 2025; in reasonable form on turf this time last year (from marks in mid 60s) but has lost his way since then, tumbling down the handicap; latest Ripon fourth (beaten 8l) isn't enough to tempt. |
7/1 |
|
4th 8 (11) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has four wins on Newcastle AW but is only 1-19 on turf; never figured on return to turf when seventh of nine at Pontefract (1m, good) in cheekpieces (left off here) last month; needs to show more. |
16/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Last of his five wins came 15 months ago and he struggled after close fourth over C&D (good to firm) in August; falling mark a help if he can stage a revival after three-month break; market check advised. |
