20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
His two wins last August/September (including here) came over 1m2f but he travelled well when fourth over 1m1f here (good to firm) on his recent return to action, when short of room close home, and he may have versatility in terms of trip; interesting contender. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Winner over 1m2f at Ayr (good; cheekpieces on) and Newcastle (tongue-tie and cheekpieces) last term; some fair AW runs after that but off since January and perhaps best watched this time (no cheekpieces). |
12/1 |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won at Ayr in August and he responded well to a tongue-tie when scoring over C&D the following month; still looks feasibly treated but he flopped here (last of nine) and needs to bounce back after that laboured effort. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Record in AW handicaps for Denis Quinn since last June reads 5112151113, including two wins over C&D; ran right up to his best when third of 11 in an even stronger contest here five weeks ago; major player on first start for John Ryan (same owner) while Jack Dace is 1-1 on him. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Record in AW handicaps since last June reads 511215111; finished strongly from the rear to collar Qitaal (who finished third) near the line and shade a blanket finish over C&D last time; has to enter calculations again off only 2lb higher. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Record in AW handicaps since last June reads 51121511 including an emphatic win over C&D; off since winning by a nose at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in December and now 8lb higher, but still hard to leave him out of calculations. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Front-runner who enjoyed a resurgence last year, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; absent since November, though, and will need to resume in peak form to have any chance off current mark. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
In excellent form over the last few months, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; latest success came from the front over C&D (good; 9-2) 17 days ago; nudged up another 2lb and this is a warmer race but she's fit and hard to discount. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Has done his winning at 7f-1m but recent form features two encouraging efforts over 1m2f (turf/AW); long losing spell remains a cause for concern, however. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Six-time winner but his last success was in August 2022; on much reduced mark and was creditable third at Beverley (1m2f; tongue-tie added) in July but he was beaten 13l at Ripon last time and that took his losing run to 20; down the list. |
12/1 |
|
4 (6) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Much lower in the weights than for the latest of five wins in 2022 and ran well when third of 14 behind a couple of dead-heaters (including Star Start) at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last time; each-way claims again despite a losing run of 19. |

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. |

11-84; runner-up at Carlisle (1m, soft; joint-favourite) in July on last turf appearance; 0-4 on AW (1m-1m2f) since, not doing enough to suggest his turn is near; blinkers are added on this attempt for first win since April 2023. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
He will have something to prove if slow ground prevails and he was tailed off on his recent reappearance over 2m at Musselburgh; however, that was his first run beyond 1m3f and he went close over that trip at Carlisle last August, when 2lb higher; might not be a forlorn hope back down in trip. |
10/1 |

5th 5 (7) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Had a near miss at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last August and not beaten far into fourth at Newcastle nine days later; not so good twice after and he has his stamina to prove now returning from 237 days off. |
10/1 |

7th 7 (7) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

0-15 but he had a near-miss at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last month before a close fourth over C&D when not a lot went right; looks interesting on that form and he had an excuse on slow ground at Hamilton last time; not ruled out back on AW. |

Lowly rated Flat maiden; has taken pretty well to hurdling this spring, making the frame at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) and Market Rasen (2m, good), but does not look obviously well treated for handicap debut. |
