5th 9 (6) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Eight-time turf winner who has won three of his last four starts, including a comfortable success at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; up another 5lb but he's been as good as ever this summer and could continue on an upward curve; respected. |
11/2 |

1st 6 (4) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won at Catterick (6f, good to firm) last month and beat three rivals to follow up over this C&D (good to firm); not written off after just one lesser run but he was only sixth of eight behind Alfa Whiteburd over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago and has to bounce back. |
9/1 |

6th 1 (1) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Goes well here and arrives seeking a hat-trick after wins at Catterick and over C&D (readily latest; both good to firm); carries penalty but on last week's evidence that may still not stop him. |

10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't get home over 7f at Southwell in March and appreciated the drop to 6f when winning there 20 days ago following a short break; both wins on turf have been on good to soft, and has claims off this 3lb higher mark. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Didn't get home over 7f here in March and is back off the same mark as when winning over C&D in January; off two months, but has won after much longer absences and high on the list. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Hit hard for his easy Catterick win (6f, good to firm) in May and he has come up well short twice, including C&D latest; handles any ground but others look better treated. |
16/1 |
|
8th 2 (1) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable 8yo who recorded his 11th win when surging clear on his reappearance at Catterick (6f, good to firm) under Tom Kiely-Marshall in May; not in the same form when last of five at Nottingham (6f again) since but he's bagged the inside stall on his first Beverley visit and is capable of bouncing back. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable 8yo who recorded his 11th win when surging clear on his reappearance at Catterick (6f, good to firm) last month; has a 10lb rise to deal with but he still looks on a workable mark and his last four wins have come under Tom Kiely-Marshall; key player. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Third of 26 in a 6f handicap at Glorious Goodwood but then disappointed when 4-1 at Hamilton; lacks the same appeal as some in here, especially when 6f has always looked his trip. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Scored at Leicester (6f) in April; running well since and just edged out when third of 26 in 6f Goodwood handicap 23 days ago; that form is proving very strong, so he merits serious consideration despite 2lb rise. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 12 (16) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The handicapper has been in command since his runaway win at Leicester (6f, good) in April; respectable sixth of 19 at York (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago but suspicion he'll prove vulnerable for win purposes again. |

9st 9lb |
Won at York last summer (5f, good to soft) on her second start but beaten 14 times since; ran okay without improving for the step up to 7f at Kempton two weeks ago; drops in class but drawn widest and others may have her measure. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Three wins for his former stable, the latest at Hamilton (6f, good) in June; sold for 11,000gns last month; widest stall to overcome on his stable debut; a hood now returns. |
14/1 |
|
10th 9 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Hamilton (6f, good) last month on second start back from a break and the neck runner-up went one better there next time; he's used to plying to his trade in a lower grade but is not discounted up just 2lb. |
15/2 |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |

Carlisle winner on debut in June 2023 (5f, good to firm); gained another win at Wolverhampton in January (5f) and fair run back on turf when fourth at Pontefract last time (6f); a possible, but perhaps better at shorter. |

Record of 0-12 this term but has frame possibilities on recent form and win possibilities provided his game is raised a touch; still 13lb below last winning mark. |

Ended 2024 with a pair of soft-ground 6f wins at Catterick, the second of them off 13lb higher; handicapper has held the upper hand this year but conditions will suit and he helps form a strong hand for Tim Easterby. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Dual soft-ground winner, latterly over C&D last autumn off an 8lb higher mark; has been running over 7f in recent times and the question is whether he still has the toe for this trip under today's conditions. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (9) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Returned to turf with two decent efforts (both 7f, good) this spring, and his keeping-on fifth at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month was perfectly respectable; would appeal more on ground slower than good but still considered each-way. |
13/2 |
|
5th 11 (5) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Can miss the break but he's on a dangerous mark and was runner-up here (7f, good) in May before a respectable fourth at Chepstow last month; this return to AW is no problem and he has each-way claims. |

9th 4 (1) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won two in a row over 6f last May and July (good and good to soft) but he's had just three inconclusive runs this year, again slowly away but finding little and eased at Newmarket 25 days ago; has something to prove. |
33/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Smart handicapper back in the day for Eddie Lynam; wasn't able to add to his tally of five wins when moving to Britain; operating at a much lower level nowadays, but not showing much for present trainer. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Hit a purple patch when completing a quick hat-trick at Nottingham (6f) in June; posted a respectable fifth of ten at Newmarket (6f) last time and very much one to consider given he has run well on all three previous visits here. |
5/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Close third to Spring Bloom over C&D last week when bidding for a four-timer after wins elsewhere (maiden previously); still on career-high mark but, by the same token, remains in good form; not dismissed. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (8) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Took 17 attempts to get off the mark but now on a four-timer after wins at Leicester (twice) and Nottingham in recent months (all 6f on good/good to firm); only up another 2lb and merits plenty of respect in his current mood. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-16 but he's been threatening to put that right in recent starts, fourth at Southwell and runner-up at Carlisle in two runs last month; blinkers now given a go (beaten in cheekpieces and a visor in the past); unraced on soft but he is by Mayson so there can be encouragement he'll handle it. |

2nd 2 (5) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

0-15 but he has shown winning potential, including when keeping on for fourth at Southwell on Sunday having been short of room over 1f out; has to prove his stamina for a stiff 7f though. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Both her wins have come at Newcastle (6f and 7f); she has finished second in 7f classified events on her last three starts but she will need to raise her game to take this; the return to Newcastle and switch to blinkers could spark extra though. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 (6) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Losing run stands at 18 but she has run well in 7f classified events on Tapeta on her last two starts, the latest here last week; strong claims in this field. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Five-time AW winner including over C&D; his last success was 17 months ago but he returned after a short break with an eye-catching fourth in a Wolverhampton handicap (6f, Tapeta) last week; didn't get much luck in that race and he's in the mix back up in trip; visor reapplied. |

4th 9 (1) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

His C&D third in March was his only effort of note since wind surgery last summer; it hasn't been a springboard to better things and he's not a solid option. |
12/1 |

4th 7 (1) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Rarely seen on turf these days even though he has won on it; only one piece of recent worthwhile form and jockey (who also owns him) is having her first ride in public; has dropped 8lb below his last winning mark, though, so could play a part if producing his best. |
20/1 |
