30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
7-47 on AW but has struggled for form since finishing third at Newcastle (1m, Class 5; from 12lb higher) last November; failed to beat a rival in each of his last two starts (9.4f/1m4f) so it's difficult to have confidence. |
25/1 |

10th 2 (8) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
4lb lower than when winning over C&D last March and 11lb lower than when successful at Pontefract in April; little inspiration from his recent AW efforts, though, beaten 11l, 17.5l, and 23l respectively in three starts in 2026. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
5lb lower than for last April's Yarmouth win (1m2f, good); solid fourth at Windsor two weeks ago and now drops in class; high on the list. |
4/1 |
|
4th 7 (2) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
In good form in the first half of 2025, including a 1m2f win at Yarmouth (good ground) last April; ended the year quietly and he was only in midfield in a 1m2f handicap at Nottingham on his reappearance last month; on a dangerous mark if using that as a stepping stone. |
15/2 |
|
6th 6 (3) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
A bit below form on his final five starts last year but a revival can't be ruled out on return having dipped to 3lb below the mark he defied at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) last April. |

Won twice here last autumn, over 1m4f and over today's trip of 1m2f; hasn't won this season but he has dropped to a good mark and could go well. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Needs to be delivered late off a strong pace to be at his best and it's not worked out for him this season, including in three races at Pontefract where he has a good record; continues to creep down the weights. |
11/2 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
15th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
9yo who has been a grand servant to the yard with nine wins but he's not so good as he once was; needs to be delivered late off a strong pace to be at his best; now on a career-low mark and others preferred. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins at Redcar (1m, good to firm/good to soft) last summer, the latest off today's mark; however, it was a tame end to the season and this 8yo needs to get back on track on his reappearance. |
50/1 |

9 (1) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has gained all wins on turf, mostly at Redcar; has gone off the boil since last success and this return to AW seems unlikely to help, with record in this sphere far from solid. |
20/1 |
|
12 (13) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Showed his liking for Redcar with C&D wins in June and July; things haven't gone to plan since but he met trouble here in August and a heavy defeat last time came in the Legends race at Doncaster; not inconceivable he'll bounce back. |

19th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last five wins have come over C&D, the latest in November; recent efforts no more than respectable, though, and remains 4lb above that last successful mark. |
10/1 |
|
7th 1 (3) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
His last five wins have come at Newcastle, but he hasn't been at his best there in last three starts; went close off this mark in November but he needs to get back near that level; all AW wins have been at 1m2f but he has won over this trip on turf. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (8) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Bagged a fifth C&D victory in November and in good nick subsequently, not seen to ideal effect when fourth of 11 back over C&D 25 days ago; a likely player eased 1lb. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground; never involved on her C&D reappearance last month, but she should be sharper this time and is now 11lb lower than for her win here last summer; could be dangerous if she gets a good pace and some luck. |
20/1 |
|
8th 10 (4) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground and finished second in this on her first start of 2023; 0-10 since her last win in July, however, and she was 50-1 when suffering big defeat on her reappearance in this race last year; nothing wrong with this mark if she is ready to roll. |
