8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three course wins, the most recent from a 1lb higher mark (6f, good; 5-1) in April; runner-up at Beverley (5f) in June and thereabouts on Tapeta at Wolverhampton (2l fourth) three weeks ago; likely to give her best; chance. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Speedy mare but has done all of her winning on turf, albeit she has only had five opportunities on AW; back to her last winning mark but will be vulnerable to late closers. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
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. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 6 (4) |
29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
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. |
9/1 |

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. |

8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
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. |
10/1 |
|
11th 3 (15) |
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. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Placed just a couple of times this term; remains on a long losing sequence, unlike fellow 9yo Impressor, but can't be dismissed off current mark; won a better race on this card two years ago. |
10/1 |
|
17th 19 (19) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Placed twice in Class 6 last month but failed to live up to market expectations at Carlisle last week, extending his long losing run; this 9yo needs to raise his game, back up in grade. |
14/1 |
|
7th 9 (4) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Can lead; the latest of his nine wins came in Hamilton handicap (5f, soft) in September 2024 and that was off a mark 24lb higher than today's; solid third behind Royal Duke over this C&D two weeks ago and the recent rain will be in his favour; cheekpieces return for the first time since 2022 and he's respected. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Veteran who beat Supremissy over C&D (heavy) eight days ago, registering a fourth success at Hamilton; likely to remain competitive, even with 4lb penalty; has defied higher marks. |
100/30 |

1st 1 (2) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Conditions will suit but he has looked on the downgrade in 2026 after a promising reappearance; drops into what is effectively a 0-55 but still comes with risks attached. |

2nd 3 (6) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Can lead; on a tempting mark relative to past turf form but he's 0-7 on the AW and has been well beaten since only just failing against Arlington over C&D in January; couldn't count on refitted blinkers, replacing a visor, returning him to form. |
5/1 |
|
6th 5 (4) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Triple turf winner who is 0-6 on AW surfaces; went close over C&D on his penultimate start (first-time tongue-tie and visor combination) but was well beaten without the visor back here latest; visor now returns but hard to be confident of another better effort. |
6/1 |
|
6th 6 (3) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Three turf wins for previous yard; 0-4 for current stable but went very close in visor over C&D most recently; possibilities, provided he's in similar form with the headgear removed. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four-time turf winner who won off today's mark at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February; however, he's finished down the field on his last four starts and a major turnaround is necessary. |
12/1 |
|
11th 3 (13) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won three 5f AW handicaps through the winter but his last three efforts were nothing to shout about; capable on turf but needs to turn a corner. |
14/1 |
|
9th 10 (6) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
In good form for much of the winter, winning three 5f handicaps, but his form has cooled on his last two starts; others look stronger in this grade. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Can lead; four 5f wins since June (on good and quicker), including over this C&D, and the return to soft ground didn't count against him when going down narrowly at Ripon last time; back up 2lb; can go well again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has won four of his last seven starts, including at Windsor (5f, good to firm) two weeks ago; that was a last-gasp success but he beat a subsequent winner and this return to slower ground is no problem; big player again in his bid for a third course win. |
5/1 |
|
1st 4 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Usually claimer ridden, to set the pace or race prominently; 8yo who has never raced here but he's been competitive in nearly every race this season, winning three, and went down by just a head and a neck at Newmarket on latest outing; drawn a bit wide but needs major respect. |
