15th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice over 1m2f on turf in July and has run well to be placed at Kempton (1m3f/1m4f) off this mark in his last two starts; has gone well here before and holds solid claims. |
5/2 |

5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Spent most of his career over 7f/1m but was a dual 1m2f turf winner this summer and he went close over 1m3f here last month; on same mark as for that last run and he could have more to offer at middle distances; key player. |

2nd 4 (6) |
23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Spent most of career over 7f/1m but was a dual 1m2f turf winner this summer; possibly not ideally suited by good to soft ground when fifth on last two starts and now only 1lb above last winning mark; respected back on AW. |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Versatile trip-wise; C&D winner; put a couple of low-key runs behind her when a front-running second at Chester three weeks ago (7.6f, good); 1lb higher but her apprentice takes off a valuable 7lb; one to consider. |
8/1 |

10st 0lb |
Record is 2-18; best efforts this season when third at Ayr in July/August; filled same position in this contest last year; likely player if back in similar form. |

Unsuited by drop to 6f last time; gradually back to form otherwise this term, close third at Ayr (good) in most recent 7f attempt; possibilities off last winning mark, provided he takes to added cheekpieces. |

Four wins last year included one over C&D; enough good runs this year to bring her right into the reckoning. |

|
4th 4 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |

6lb above her last winning mark but has a course record of 12125 and was running on again in a Class 2 here 21 days ago after losing her position; respected. |

29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
C&D wins in May/June and later threatened at Ffos Las (7.3f) and Chepstow (1m); chance on all that, but last two runs were very underwhelming. |
12/1 |
|
7th 4 (2) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won two in a row here in May/June and he went close at Ffos Las (7.3f) and Chepstow (1m) in his next two runs; last effort needs forgiving but he's capable of bouncing back. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won on ground ranging from firm to good to soft; won two in a row at Bath (1m) in May/June and he went close at Ffos Las (7.3f) and Chepstow (1m) in his next two runs; still looks on a workable mark and he has a good record at this track. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Only 2-30 so he's hard to win with, but found only one too good last week at Musselburgh (1m, good); must have a chance, though might not appreciate the ground getting too slow. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has registered both wins at Ripon but he posted a respectable effort over C&D last time, finishing third, and again has place possibilities; best form gives him an even better chance today. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (12) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual Ripon winner last summer who's regressed and run below market expectations on last two starts; this is easier off a career-low mark (9lb lower than when last successful) but he could have done without the recent rain. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
His last win was in May 2023 and he was below par at Southwell (1m, AW) in August last time; however, he's run some good races this season on AW/good ground and his last win came on soft; might be worth a second look. |
16/1 |

13 (2) |
25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
More than two years since his latest win and although he nearly put that right over C&D in April he ran flat here next time; in fair form on turf in the meantime but others look more likely winners. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has been placed a few times and drops to this level for the first time, but ran poorly on his reappearance at Chester (7.7f, good) in June and has been off another 73 days since; blinkers need to make a difference if he is to make it 16th-time lucky. |

Showed some ability remained when fifth at Chester in June (7.6f, good) but well held Flat and hurdles since; tailed off in the faces of a stiff task at Chester on Saturday. |
16/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |

Modest mare who was tailed off on her hurdling debut last month and this is an impossible task back on the Flat. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Four-time winner on the Flat but not since September 2023 and she has a lowly mark nowadays; best watched on hurdling debut. |
