9st 11lb |
Won Windsor novice (5f, good to firm) last August for Jack Channon and signed off for that yard with good third in Newcastle handicap (7f, AW) in January; has since changed yards (remains in same ownership) and had wind surgery; this lightly raced 4yo is not ruled out on her stable debut. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Ran well when a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month, but didn't back it up at Pontefract (5f, good; first-time hood) a fortnight ago; opposable given his wide draw and a losing run of 22. |

7th 9 (7) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Losing run up to 21, but he ran well to finish a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month; a few winners have come out of that race and a hood is given a go, but the drop to 5f may not be ideal even on a stiff track like this. |

Very useful juvenile/3yo for Roger Varian but his last win was in February 2024 and he's not made an impact in seven runs this year; mark continues to fall but losing run is up to 20 and others are preferred. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |

A solid run when fourth in this race (good) last year but he struggled subsequently, with slow starts also becoming a feature; handicapped to be competitive if a 174-day break has freshened him up. |

18th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Overall record of 1-14 but he finished runner-up five times last season and is well treated on the pick of that form; returned after wind surgery with an encouraging fourth at Doncaster (6f, good) in June but he was disappointing at Thirsk last month and needs to bounce back after that; cheekpieces removed. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Likeable mare with a good strike-rate; ran at least as well as could have been expected when midfield in Group 1 at Royal Ascot (125-1) last time, but she was only fifth to Washington Heights in Listed event the time before; may again be up against it. |
16/1 |
|
12th 14 (25) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Improved form when winning a 5f Listed race at Bath (good) in April; finished a creditable fifth of eight in a similar Carlisle race (good to firm) since but she's up a gum tree at this level. |

5th 6 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
6yo mare who sprang a 22-1 surprise in Listed race at Bath (5f, good) in April, swooping fast and late; likeable type with an impressive strike-rate but she'll need another personal best under a penalty. |

9st 13lb |
Last two wins have come over 6f at Redcar and he returned to form when third over that C&D (good to firm) in May; well beaten in a big field at York since; first visit to Catterick. |
9/1 |
|
15th 17 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Last two wins have come over 6f at Redcar and he returned to form when third over that C&D last month; however, this is warmer and he has been unplaced on all four of his starts at York. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 7 (10) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won the corresponding event 12 months ago off a 6lb higher mark; not come close to matching that form in seven runs since but this spring's two efforts have come over 5f and this will be more suitable; 2-2 at Redcar and a full revival could be imminent. |

9st 6lb |
A fair 6f/7f scorer in 2024; quite lightly raced since but back to form with sixth of 11 in 7.5f Beverley handicap three weeks ago; not out of things with this shorter trip a plus. |
14/1 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ayr Bronze Cup winner in 2024 who also posted some good efforts without winning in 2025; beat one on his return in 7f Haydock handicap after nine months off but he should strip sharper now. |
10/1 |
|
9th 2 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won the 2024 Ayr Bronze Cup in fine style (6f, good); 0-5 in 2025 but looked to retain all his ability; conditions won't be an issue and he has run well first time out in each of his seasons of racing; chance. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Slowly away on his last three starts; runner-up over 6f here in April following a break; hasn't built on that on turf on his two starts since (6f) but he made late headway at Chester last time and the return to 7f may be a good move; could be involved back here. |
8/1 |
|
6th 9 (5) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
There were hopes he was rediscovering his level when chasing home Station X at Southwell (6f, AW) in April but his return to turf didn't go particularly well when again slowly away before finishing down the field at Doncaster last Friday; out of the weights today and others more solid. |
25/1 |
|
10th 15 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Dual turf winner who last won in August 2023; had reduced mark and regular hood removed when back to some form for second of six at Southwell (6f, AW; Alondra third) in April; could be rediscovering his level and he's not dismissed from the same mark. |

Front-runner who is 4-8 on the AW including a C&D success in May last year; beaten a head back here on New Year's Day and although off ten weeks since, she is proven fresh; major player. |
9/4 |

9th 6 (14) |
25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Made the running for two of her three AW wins; not disgraced over C&D recently in only her second turf run and although more is needed it wouldn't surprise to see her do better on grass. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has a poor strike-rate since 2022 and isn't particularly solid on 2025 efforts; however, drops in grade off a reduced mark and can't be dismissed; very similar type to Illusionist. |
11/1 |

9 (3) |
26th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
He's dropped to a dangerous mark and showed the odd hint of spark on occasions towards the end of last year; can go well fresh but he's been regressive and has a poor strike-rate over the last few years. |

21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Punished for his win in a weak C&D maiden last November and the handicapper has been in command this year; more realistically treated again now but this won't be an easy race in which to try and dominate. |
16/1 |
|
9 (10) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Limited impact in handicaps since winning a four-runner C&D maiden in November and he let his many supporters down when flopping on return visit here last time; continues to fall down the weights so interesting to see if his backers return. |
