10st 0lb |
Got her head back in front at Ayr in August over this trip on quick ground; backed that up with good second on AW off 10lb higher, despite racing keenly; 4lb lower turf mark here so demands respect and drying ground will help. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Third in 1m4f handicaps at Musselburgh on her last two starts, staying on nicely on both occasions; drop back in trip on faster ground isn't sure to suit. |
10/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins came over C&D; hit flat spot but rallied for third under these conditions last week; obvious claims of turning the tables on winner Gemini Man given she was beaten two necks and has a 4lb pull; 7lb claimer Kyle McHugh enlisted too. |
11/4 |

3rd 6 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
A three-time C&D winner for Jim Goldie; much better signs for her new yard with sixth of 11 in 1m4f Hamilton handicap 18 days ago when set a lot to do; well in the mix if building on that here. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
On a long losing run (last win was at Ayr in July 2024) but he has run a few creditable races this year; has a bit to find with Royal Blaze on their C&D form last month. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (9) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple course winner (1m/1m2f) but his last success was 14 months ago and he struggled here last time; on dangerous mark but he's been hard to predict this season and others are preferred. |
20/1 |
|
10th 3 (1) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not disgraced when third of eight to Jewel Maker in 1m Carlisle handicap a week ago; this C&D winner is one for the shortlist. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Scored over C&D last July and she got back on track with fourth of nine over C&D 16 days ago, despite going very freely; one to consider. |
10/1 |
|
4th 10 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Scored over C&D (good to soft) off 3lb higher last summer and returns here after respectable fifth at Musselburgh (1m, good) this month but has a modest strike-rate and a steadily regressive profile; others preferred. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Thoroughly exposed three-time winner who may need further now, with her last win coming at 1m2f; reappearance effort was underwhelming. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won four handicaps here (1m-1m2f, good or slower) in the second half of 2025; yet to fire this time around and may need both slower ground and further help from the handicapper. |
25/1 |
|
10th 5 (7) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Ended 2025 when completing a hat-trick over C&D (third C&D success) in October but he's yet to fire this summer, soon ridden when only seventh of ten over C&D 16 days ago; has something to prove now. |
20/1 |

7th 2 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Enjoyed a revival in second half of last season, winning four times here (1m-1m2f, good-heavy); well down the field on last month's reappearance outing, though, and remains on a tough mark. |

14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
No impact in five runs for Adrian Keatley and well-held in his two runs for current yard, latest with tongue-tie (retained); has had wind surgery since but hard to fancy. |

18th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
No impact in five runs for Adrian Keatley and was a well-held fifth of ten on stable debut here (7f, good) last Monday; still unexposed but he needs improvement with a tongue-tie added at this new trip. |
9/1 |
|
11 (4) |
11th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
No impact in five runs for Adrian Keatley, most recently when third of four in a Musselburgh handicap (1m1f, good) last month; still early days but he needs improvement back in trip for new yard. |
16/1 |
