19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Has had nine wins, the latest when scoring over C&D in March off his highest winning mark; a decent third at Kempton (6f, AW) last Wednesday but requires a career best off 3lb higher than when last successful. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
14th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Has a record of 5-15 on AW and ran well over C&D in March when bidding for a hat-trick; not certain to be in the same form, however, having subsequently posted two duck eggs upped to Class 2 level. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Reliable operator on AW, which saw his mark rise before he was below form at Newcastle (33-1) in June latest, after three months off; he's effective at this track (including a win under 7lb claimer) but his 2025 turf form isn't good enough. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Not beaten far at Hamilton in August (5f, good) but only four ran there and he hasn't built on it since; will be 3lb lower from the weekend and easy enough to have reservations. |
25/1 |

2 (11) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Smart on his day, as when close up in a Group 3 at Newbury (7f, good to soft) in April 2024; showed he was sharp enough for 5f when going down in a tight finish at Hamilton (good; four ran) in August and although below that level since he'll be suited by a return to good to soft ground in this lower grade than of late; has run well in a visor and it's now refitted. |
8/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Appeared to run well when a close third at Hamilton last month but that effort is sandwiched by two lesser efforts; down in the weights but stable may have stronger claims with Democracy Dilemma. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won debut at Ascot (5f, soft) in sole 2yo start; missed 2024 but made a respectable return at Ripon, only to find the tough 6f on Newcastle AW stretching him in August; has potential back at 5f on handicap debut. |
9/2 |
|
1 (9) |
29th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Made a bright start with his 5f win at Ascot (soft) in May 2023; didn't return to the track until this month but he showed promise again when third at Ripon (5f, good); entitled to be sharper for the run and bold show looks assured now stepping up to 6f. |

3rd 1 (4) |
4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
55,000gns Land Force colt who made a bright start with his 5f win at Ascot (5f, soft) in May 2023; been on the sidelines since then but he recorded an RPR of 86 on his debut and needs a close look on his comeback. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Chelmsford winner off 5lb higher this time last year; boasts a fair record overall at this trip on the AW and a return to form wouldn't surprise; may well be dropped in and ridden for luck from stall 9. |
10/1 |
|
8th 2 (1) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Beneath his last winning mark (5f AW) and his second run back from a break was more encouraging, as although only eighth at Kempton he wasn't beaten too far (6f) from an unpromising position; capable of racing prominently, which would be helpful from stall 1, and could be interesting; soft ground would be a concern. |
6/1 |
|
8th 6 (12) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Scored off this mark at Chelmsford (5f) last July; should be sharper following a run at Newmarket last month and steps back up to 6f; not out of this. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Winless since June 2024 but he resumed from a 12-week break with a good third of ten in 5f handicap at Doncaster 13 days ago; this veteran must enter calculations nudged up 1lb. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
8yo who wasn't beaten far in seventh of nine at Pontefract (5f, good) in June, following a break; back from another 84 days off today but he has some good course form and is not ruled out off a handy mark. |
8/1 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Absent since running respectably when favourite for AW contest in January; on a two-year losing spell but is attractively treated off his lower mark back on turf; further market support should be noted. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Down the field at Newcastle four weeks ago but was in a first-time visor and his usual cheekpieces return today; he was in pretty good heart prior to last time and won on heavy ground last October; not discounted. |
12/1 |
|
8th 2 (3) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well handicapped on his best form last year and he's finished a creditable fourth in last two runs including over C&D; needs to find a bit extra but he's still lightly raced on AW and new headgear could give him a boost. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three wins in the second half of last year (various ground; the final one over C&D); he's struggled to get competitive for most of this year but has dropped down the weights and ran well when fourth of 13 at Newcastle (5f, AW) last time; another 2lb lower today and he's one to consider. |

12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Back to his best this year, winning three times from the front, latterly from the same stall over C&D in July; did it easily that day but finds himself 9lb higher as a result, which will test him back from a couple of months off. |
4/1 |
|
4th 1 (2) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Made all twice in a row this spring (including over C&D on good to firm) and bounced back from his third of six at Yarmouth for another front-running win at Lingfield (5f, AW) last Monday; had plenty in hand last time and he's 5lb well in under a 5lb penalty; could prove tough to catch. |
6/5 |
|
1st 3 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has won on the AW but off a much lower mark and all his best efforts have come on turf, including two wins in the spring; looked like the handicapper may have caught up again when third to Michaela's Boy last time and he's drawn wide today. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Course winner as 2yo; useful type who is 2lb lower than for his Ayr win (6f, good) in July but he hasn't been in the same form of late and it's hard to argue that a return to form is imminent. |
16/1 |

6th 8 (4) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |

Only 2lb higher than when beating 16 rivals in a 6f handicap at Ayr in July; struggled since but the ability is there if this is a going day. |

12th 13 (10) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f) in July but well below par both runs since and he failed to beat a rival in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last time; needs to take a major step forward. |

Won 6f novice (heavy) here as 2yo but a long way from repeating that promise in 2025 and now tries something new, a drop in trip in first-time headgear. |

5th 5 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 3 |

Promising 2yo who was well suited by slow ground; struggled in three runs this year but should get his ground today and a revival could be on the cards. |
4/1 |

3 (7) |
12th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
All races at 6f; progressive 2yo who ended the season with a novice win at Leicester (heavy) but he's had a very slow start to 2025 and has been gelded since last seen in May; some questions to answer over new trip. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Led late on when winning a 5f handicap at Hamilton in June; best run since when third of ten at Leicester 11 days ago (5f, good to soft); more to prove back over 6f. |
10/1 |
|
11 (4) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Can take a nap at the start; best form of 2025 in good 5f Hamilton races during June, going close (good to soft) before leading near the line (good) but he hasn't been running badly in competitive sprints of late; the expected strong pace can suit now he's back at 5f and returned to this grade. |
10/1 |
|
53 |
19th Sep 2025 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb
|
Close second at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) in June and went one better there (5f, good) 11 days later; effective over 6f in the past; however, down the field on his last two outings and needs to get back on track. |
