28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims. |

Three Flat wins for Ed Walker (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; never got seriously involved under a patient ride at Ludlow but that run was promising; now tongue tied. |

Three Flat wins for Ed Walker (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; should enjoy good ground on hurdle/stable debut and he's of clear interest. |

15th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |

Disappointing sort who ended up 12l behind King's Scholar here last time, following wind surgery; now has a tongue-tie (tried on final start last term) and first-time blinkers. |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |

0-7 last year and has weakened quickly on both runs this term; however, a wind operation may have done the trick and his good course form and a dangerous mark suggest he's worth a second look. |

0-7 on the Flat and not much in three starts over hurdles, but he now switches to a handicap and is a possible improver on this step up in trip; needs watching in market. |
7/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Middle-distance Flat maiden capable of mid-80s RPRs at his best for Andrew Balding, though has regressed gently since being gelded and can still race too freely and/or take a grip; hurdles and stable debut. |
10/1 |
|
3 (6) |
28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |

Six-race maiden who has finished down the field in both handicaps and needs to raise his game; however, he showed promise in maiden and novice events and could get back on track for his good yard at some stage. |

Won 1m4f AW handicap for Ed Bethell in October 2024; no worthwhile form in three turf starts for Tim Easterby; folded tamely behind Church Mountain on stable debut last month. |
20/1 |
|
11th 3 (10) |
23rd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Won a 1m4f handicap on AW for Ed Bethell in October 2024; not so good in most recent runs, including three turf starts for Tim Easterby; makes stable debut now and perhaps return to AW can help. |
20/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |

Won a 1m4f handicap on AW for Ed Bethell last October; not so good on his last four outings, with new stable for last two, and his record in turf handicaps suggests he is opposable. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
He's reappeared in rude health this year with wins under Lauren Young at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) and Hamilton (1m3f, good); beat bang-in-form stablemate last time and a 5lb higher mark might not stop this course winner. |
5/2 |
|
1st 4 (1) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Three wins (C&D, 1m6f and 2m1f) in summer 2024 and, from a reduced mark, back on the scoresheet at Musselburgh (1m4f) three weeks ago when arriving very late on the scene at 20-1 under Lauren Young to deny Fast Fred; back up 4lb but could take another step back up the ladder. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (7) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Three wins (1m3f, 1m6f and 2m1f) in summer 2024 and he's 7lb below his last winning mark; struggled to get competitive last year until his running-on fifth under Lauren Young in a blanket finish on final start (1m4f, soft); reappearance record isn't great and today's test may be a bit too sharp for him. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
First visit here; excels at Hamilton, where she was short-headed last month (1m4f, soft), and she was always behind at Ayr on Thursday on a very rare crack at 1m2f (heavy); attempts at this trip have also been scarce but there have been hints that it's a distance at which she could have untapped potential. |
16/1 |
|

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Course winner who was beaten by a short head at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) last time; she excels at Hamilton and has never won over a trip this short, but her surplus stamina may be no bad thing given the testing conditions. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Lost a lot of ground at the start at Ayr last Thursday so there's a risk attached on the back of that; however, in the circumstances she did well to finish third of six (beaten just over 9l) and three of her last four wins have come here (on various ground) including this race last year; capable. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Front-runner who was progressive last year (over 1m6f, 1m5f here and 2m) and finished either first or second in all five of those races, but he wasn't seen after July; a shorter break (178 days) didn't prevent a win first time out last term and he should be retained in serious calculations. |
9/1 |
|
1 (11) |
25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who was progressive on turf this year (1m6f/1m5f, good/good to soft) prior to winning the Northumberland Plate consolation race at Newcastle (AW) four weeks ago on his first crack at 2m; it was a big field that day and a 5lb rise may not stop him here. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
C&D winner in 2022 but his latest success came nearly two years ago; third on his first two outings this season (1m4f) and did enough to suggest he's still in form when fourth of six at Redcar (1m6f, good) 20 days ago; drop back in trip may not be ideal. |
8/1 |
|
4th 2 (1) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
It has been nearly two years since the last of his four wins but his two starts in 2026 have seen him finish third; conditions won't be an excuse and he's more solid than some. |
3/1 |

3rd 6 (7) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Defied a much higher mark at Beverley in 2022; poor strike-rate since but he ran encouragingly when favourite at Catterick (1m4f) on seasonal debut and has possibilities back here, being so nicely weighted. |

9st 11lb |
0-16, he has shown bits of form when placed but his latest effort when eighth of 11 at Wolverhampton (1m6f) three weeks ago following a break was discouraging; his mark continues to fall but hard to recommend for win purposes. |
6/1 |

4th 3 (7) |
31st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |

13-race maiden but there have been some near misses, notably a short-head defeat at Hamilton last month (1m5f, good to soft); soft ground and the trip (2m) possible excuses for two lesser efforts but others are more appealing options. |

Prolific last year, whereas his only win this season was in March; ran respectably penultimate start (AW) but not well enough in his other recent races and his record for amateur rider is discouraging; his three turf wins have all been on soft or good to soft. |

Showed fair form at a juvenile hurdler two seasons ago, winning at Hexham in March 2024 (2m, heavy); didn't progress in handicaps after that; has since won twice over 1m5f on the Flat at Hamilton (good/soft) but below his best on last two Flat runs. |

Ended his 2025 campaign with a pair of 1m4f wins, the first of them here and by a wide margin; two heavy defeats this spring but he's the type to pop up soon, perhaps when faced with some slower ground. |

Revitalised in blinkers and ended 2025 with victories over C&D (good to soft) and at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) in September; went without the blinkers when always behind on his Thirsk reappearance 11 days ago but could fare a lot better with the headgear back in place now. |

Dependable sort who's been in career-best form with a win and two seconds this season; raised another 2lb but can show up well again after his two big runs at Musselburgh (pipped by Letsbefrank latest); highly respected. |

Second at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) on reappearance and better than ever when taking a 14-runner handicap over C&D (good) two weeks ago; 4lb higher this time but firmly in the mix. |
