26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Back in fine form with 5f handicap wins at Pontefract and Thirsk (raced alone) recently; not disgraced when eighth of 16 in 5f handicap at Doncaster 13 days ago; needs considering eased 1lb. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Fell to career-low mark before winning at Pontefract in June and Thirsk (also 5f, good) in August; latter was best form since April 2024 and he's gone back up another 6lb, but this hat-trick seeker demands some respect. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Runner-up off 6lb higher at Redcar (5f, good) in June but hasn't kicked on from that and hopes are pinned on first-time blinkers prompting a revival; unproven on soft/heavy ground. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Went very close off 5lb higher at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) in March but he's been up and down since; had an excuse in the mud at Haydock last time but losing run is now up to 13 and others are more convincing. |
16/1 |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
He has finished runner-up twice this season, including at Redcar (5f, good) off 4lb higher, but he failed to justify support when seventh at Beverley three weeks ago; career-low mark but his modest strike-rate (2-27) tempers confidence and there's a soft-ground query too. |

3rd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Found her level again lately, winning for Ethan Tindall at Ayr off 6lb lower before a lesser effort at a short price next time; been given a short break since and is fine on Tapeta, so needs factoring in to the equation. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner who has returned to form on her last two starts, finishing third over C&D (good) then winning at Ayr (5f, good); remains well treated on her old form and she's respected. |

Thrown in on last summer's best form and there were clear signs of a revival with her third of six at Musselburgh (5f, good) eight days ago; Ethan Tindall takes off a handy 5lb and she is one to be interested in. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has a soft-ground C&D win on her record; well handicapped on this year's best but she has a wide stall to contend with and she needs to step forward from her recent Catterick fifth. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Returned to action with a win at Nottingham (5f, good) in April and she ran a cracker at Beverley one month later; not so good twice since and a lower draw would have been preferred. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won over C&D (good) in April on reappearance before close third at Beverley (5f, good to firm); unplaced on next two starts but she was slowly away when sixth at Musselburgh then drawn widest when fifth at Beverley (5f, good); she's one to consider. |

9st 10lb |
C&D record 115; won back-to-back at Ayr and Thirsk (both 5f) in May/June, rising steadily in the weights as a result; below par since returning from mid-summer break, though her latest Beverley effort (on heavy ground) is excusable. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Two wins on good ground this summer (handles good to soft) and she ran well off this mark in her hat-trick bid in June; not at the same level this month though and soft ground and stall 15 leave her with a look of vulnerability. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Gained last two wins on Newcastle AW; has been unable to take advantage of a steadily declining mark since returned to turf but isn't out of form; respectable fifth at Hamilton most recently; could go well. |

5th 4 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |

Has a better strike-rate on the AW (4-26) than on turf (3-39); 4lb below his last winning mark, but has to put a modest effort at Ayr (5f, good to firm) last month behind him. |

9st 5lb |
Having a very good season, third success at Newcastle (5f) in September; didn't enjoy the smoothest of passages when a short-head second of 14 in 5f handicap at Musselburgh (5f) a week ago; this three-time C&D scorer is a big player once more. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |

Chasing a hat-trick after two recent wins at Newcastle; probably a better horse on Tapeta though and he has stall 14 to overcome. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Enhanced his good strike-rate on AW when winning a C&D handicap last week, keeping on well from off the pace; has a 5lb penalty to shoulder (only due to go up 4lb) but there is still mileage in his mark; dangerous at this level. |

Midfield at Ayr (6f, heavy) last Thursday and same story at York (5f, soft) on Friday; however, he twice went close on consecutive days at the end of September (5f/6f, soft/heavy) and is not ruled out under Billy Loughnane. |

Won at Hamilton (5f, good) in June and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (soft) on the latter occasion; three lesser runs followed but he was bang there when third back on soft ground at Hamilton (5f) yesterday and has to be considered after that revival. |

3rd 9 (2) |
28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Class 5 success over C&D initiated a solid start to the season; the subsequent other half of his campaign is characterised by a dip in form; no certainty to take advantage of drop back down weights. |
