2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (2m7f, soft) in December and returned to form at Sedgefield (2m5f, good) a fortnight ago, when he was narrowly in front when falling two out; won over hurdles here last May and he's on the shortlist. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
He's failed to shine on his three starts since his chase win at Musselburgh in December, last time tailed off over hurdles here; however, he won three times last year, including over hurdles here, and is not written off. |

Three wins, the first over this C&D on soft, last year; hasn't been at his best on last two starts but has an each-way chance. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Bounced back to form with narrow win at Kelso (2m5f, good) in May but that seems to be his favourite track and he ran poorly here (2m6f) last month; this drop back in trip is not ideal; not the percentage call. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Made the frame in his only two races at Cartmel; short-head win at Kelso (2m5f, good) five weeks ago, which seems his favourite track but he needs respect with that return to form. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Well handicapped on old form but hasn't won on the Flat since 2021 and, following a 406-day absence, he finished last in recent 1m3f Hamilton race won by Annandale; has too much to prove. |
40/1 |

7th 2 (4) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Dual AW Flat winner (1m4f) in 2021 who also won a 2m3f hurdle race in March 2023; that's from 44 starts and he may prove best watched on this first appearance since May 2025, despite the reduced mark. |

7th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

Dual AW Flat winner (1m4f); only hurdle win was for Ben Pauling off 11lb higher at Doncaster in March 2023 (2m3f, good); some fair form last term, stable in good form and he's a possible. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Prolific in 2022-23 but just one win in her last 29 starts, gained over this C&D but off 5lb lower; mostly consistent without threatening this year, and minor honours likeliest at best. |
16/1 |
|
4th 2 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Capitalised upon some considerable help from the handicapper when winning over C&D (good) just under a year ago and returns here after a decent effort at Kelso this month, but she's nothing like the force of old and has become inconsistent. |
9/2 |

5th 5 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Last win came off a 5lb lower mark at Market Rasen in June last year (2m4f, good); not at her best last time but has a chance on her previous run when third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft). |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |

Flat scorer whose form in handicap hurdles is largely encouraging, staying-on third at Hexham (2m, good) most recently; enters calculations off same mark. |

20th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

13th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Gained most recent success off just 1lb lower in June (over 2m at Catterick); however, subsequent form (Flat/hurdles) is unconvincing. |
12/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Four-time Flat winner who got off the mark over hurdles at Carlisle (2m3f, good) in April; only 2lb higher today and could plausibly have untapped potential over this longer trip but disappointed on last two outings (hurdles/Flat) and arrives here with a point to prove. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |

Front-runner who has made all in all four of his victories on the Flat, including two over C&D; modest over hurdles 12 days ago but respected back here, especially as he may again enjoy the run of the race; new headgear combination. |

Runner-up at Worcester on penultimate start for Shark Hanlon last September (2m4f, good); hasn't proved straightforward in two runs for new yard (refused to race on first occasion); hard to fancy. |

0-18 over hurdles but seemingly back in decent form on last two appearances; in contention for second before last-flight fall at Kelso (2m5f, good) a fortnight ago and has possibilities if that experience has not dented her confidence. |
