16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
No show back on AW last time but she's had plenty of close calls this season, including at Ripon (6f, good) on her penultimate run; has claims if she can recapture that form and her four turf wins include one over C&D. |
12/1 |

2nd 6 (3) |
26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
4-36 overall and has her first race here; no win since July 2025 and, having been runner-up four times this May-July, her form has deserted her lately. |
12/1 |

8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

String of consistent efforts in defeat before a couple of quieter runs lately; won't mind any rain, down to a career-low mark, but needs to bounce back. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
10lb lower than when runner-up here (6f, heavy) last October and a market check is advised; however, this 8yo has had a regressive campaign and needs to leave his last three performances miles behind. |
25/1 |

8th 6 (6) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Without a victory since 2024 and he was retried in a visor when beating one in 6f Hamilton handicap 11 days ago; blinkers and tongue-strap are fitted here. |
25/1 |

9th 5 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Well handicapped on his old form but last win was over two years ago and he's been out of sorts this season; this drop back in trip is no problem but he needs a major revival; visor reapplied. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Very well handicapped on last summer's exploits but he's been a long way below that level this year and a major turnaround is needed. |
25/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won two 6f handicaps on good ground last summer when with Hugo Palmer; quiet in two runs for current yard (cheekpieces then a visor) and soft ground might not be what he wants. |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 (9) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Thirsk (6f, good) last June before following up at Chester (6f, good) a week later; well beaten in the Ayr Bronze Cup on his final start for Hugo Palmer and he beat only one rival home at Bath on his stable debut 27 days ago; visor back on (replacing cheekpieces worn last time). |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

7f winner on Newcastle AW in March when only 1lb lower; that stiffer finish suits him well and he was beaten 3l over C&D when last seen in April. |
7/2 |
|
4 (11) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
7f winner on Newcastle AW in March; back on turf for the first time since last October but he's 8lb lower today and he does act on grass; however, jockey bookings suggest Highfield Viking is the stable preferred. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Wins have been over 6f on turf and 7f on the AW (Newcastle); has been running well for a while and latest effort back at Newcastle was better than it looks. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won just two of his 36 starts and the second of them was way back in May 2024; he has run some solid races this season, including C&D, but he is prone to fluffing the start and that won't make life easy from stall 3. |
10/1 |
|
13th 15 (20) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
On a long losing sequence but is in form, having made the frame in four of his last six races, and remains attractively treated on historical data; return to winning ways is not out of the question. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Extended losing run to 26 when finishing in midfield at Chester in July (again slowly away); has the ability to win off this mark but he is not a solid option. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Underwhelming for the majority of this campaign but he got back on track when third at Carlisle (7f, good) three weeks ago; won on soft ground last September and he's a contender if backing up that latest effort. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Odds-on favourite when winning the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 4lb higher mark; 2026 campaign has been disappointing, including when backed at Beverley 11 days ago; too well treated to discount. |
7/1 |
|
5th 9 (4) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Run to form in just one of his five starts this year; fully effective at the track and rain would boost his chance; one to consider with a good claimer booked. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent in the second half of this year and his three wins have come at 6f, but he's well served by testing ground and was a close third at Ayr (6f, heavy) last Thursday; could be in the mix. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Carlisle (6f, soft) in June; of interest on that form but he's failed to shine at Hamilton (6f, good to soft/soft) on two recent starts. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 (5) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three 6f wins on soft include one on this track and he finished powerfully for the latest one at Carlisle in June; however, he has more to prove on two subsequent runs (the vet reporting he was lame on latest start in August). |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from 23 starts but he made a bold bid and was only narrowly denied in a Hamilton handicap (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; has leading claims if he can back that up. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not in the same form as he was in May and June last year but he's on a lowly mark now and, after being pushed along from some way out, he did stick well to the task when fourth over C&D (good to firm) recently; form case to be made down in grade. |
7/2 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Yet to be placed after six starts this season (5f-7f) but won off a much higher mark last spring, at Ripon (6f, good to soft), and may yet turn things around; worth a glance in the betting. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
10st 3lb |
Two AW wins (at 5f and 6f) last year for Jonathan Portman; has run well off marks in the mid-70s; now a modest 60, having shown very little in four runs for this stable, including a 7f claimer at Dundalk last time; definite chance on his old form; worth a market check. |
7/1 |
|
11th 12 (6) |
15th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Two-time AW winner at 5f-6f for Jonathan Portman; hard to fancy on recent form (blood noted at both nostrils on comeback run), too keen at Ayr latest; first-time tongue-tie. |
33/1 |
|
9th 8 (6) |
7th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two-time AW winner at 5f-6f for Jonathan Portman; blood noted at both nostrils after a poor run at Down Royal (7f) for May's stable debut and he beat one home back there (5f, also good) having stumbled last time; risky. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time AW scorer; 0-13 on turf but nearly prevailed in small field at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) in most recent Class 5 attempt; remains well handicapped on peak form. |
14/1 |
|
6th 9 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Not proving the easiest to catch right since going in at Newcastle (5f) in February but he comes here on the back of a good second of six in 5f Newmarket handicap a week ago; in the mix if on his A-game again. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Yet to win on turf, but is now 2lb lower than when scoring on Tapeta at Newcastle (5f) in February and he did well under the circumstances when fourth of 11 at Ayr (5f, good to firm) 26 days ago, faring best of those from off the pace (started slowly); a rare Newmarket runner for his Scottish stable. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time AW winner but not since March 2024, and his turf strike-rate is 0-28; probably worth another crack at 7f but has been out of form over sprint trips for a good while now; considered only if lively in betting. |
25/1 |
|
10th 8 (3) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won six times on AW in the first part of 2024 but there hasn't been much to cheer about since; 0-27 on turf but has run well over C&D and the forecast rain won't bother him; still too much to prove for comfort. |
