29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
C&D winner in the past; began this campaign with two solid efforts and he is well treated if bouncing back; more recent efforts not quite so good though and he goes without headgear today; well drawn and handles soft ground so there are positives as well as negatives. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner from the front last October; mostly creditable efforts in defeat this year and should give it a good shot back at a venue which suits, particularly if he can obtain an uncontested lead. |
9/2 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
A dual 7f Catterick scorer in October; back in very good form this season, and probably best forgiven his latest 11th in 7f Thirsk handicap when missing the start and unable to lead; the sort to bounce back. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
8yo who has displayed mixed form this season and was below par over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago, but he showed spark when third of 22 over C&D (good) two starts ago and he has an excellent record in this race, having won it in 2023 and dead-heated for first last year; respected. |
15/2 |
|
12th 19 (15) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Two-time C&D winner and has also run with distinction in defeat here on numerous occasions; retains plenty of ability despite his advancing years but he would be better suited by slower conditions. |
9/1 |
|
12 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Plenty of C&D form in big fields, notably wins on good to soft in July of 2023 and 2025; behind Leadman when fifth at the Dante meeting last month but well in front of David O'Meara's charge and looked a bit unlucky (met trouble) when third of 22 back here three weeks ago; solid. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Three of four wins have been at 7f, including over C&D (good) last August; back on his latest winning mark after failing to find his form this year and has plenty to prove following a 14l defeat at Doncaster in June. |
10/1 |
|
9th 8 (12) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Gained last year's two wins over 7f on good ground in August and came second in a 15-runner race next time; Beverley reappearance was promising but he was only midfield in a big field at York three weeks ago; down in class but needs a full revival. |
12/1 |
|
10th 19 (3) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Gained last year's two wins over 7f on good ground in August and came second in a 15-runner race next time; made a respectable return to action one month ago and enters each-way calculations. |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Placed several times this term, including in higher grade at Catterick last week; continues on a long losing run but remains 8lb below last winning mark; again in the mix. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 9 (4) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three C&D wins on his record, including in this race in 2024; near miss over C&D last month and his subsequent Redcar defeat came in a Class 4; big player. |
13/2 |
|
11th 14 (9) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Gained all five wins over 7f; went close over that trip in Class 6 event at regular haunt Catterick (good to firm) last month but went up 2lb for that and looks vulnerable over 1m in this stronger race. |

19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Added to his 2yo novice win when making all to justify support at Musselburgh (7f, good) in June; this is a deeper race but a 3lb rise looks fair and he's well drawn to attack; respected. |
9/2 |
|
1st 4 (7) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Still seeking his first handicap success and he has been beaten as favourite in both starts this year; on a dangerous mark and likely to be popular again. |
5/1 |
|
6th 1 (1) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |

Novice winner; 0-8 in handicaps but produced one of his best efforts when 1l second at Hamilton (1m, good) on seasonal debut; possibilities off same mark. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Dual course winner over 6f/7f, the most recent coming in March off the same mark as today; below his best in three starts since but can't be dismissed back on the AW. |
10/1 |
|
8th 10 (9) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with a 20-1 win at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March; didn't get any luck at York next time but he was well held on his return visit at the end of May; has bit to prove again after a break but he's only 1lb higher than for his last win. |
25/1 |
|
14th 11 (8) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth and fifth in his two big-field C&D races last term; Newcastle win in March ensures a career-high mark today but it's hard to judge him harshly on last week's C&D result as he didn't see daylight at various stages. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Difficult to recommend judged on last five starts, in which he's beaten very few opponents; supporters will cling to the hope that blinkers (replacing a visor) will help and that his two successes have come at Catterick. |
16/1 |
|
2 (6) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Below par on his last four starts, but Catterick (5f, good) a fortnight ago was a step back in the right direction and he won there (6f, good to soft) in July on his last encounter with slow ground; not ruled out. |
10/1 |
|
10 (7) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

6f win here in July off 1lb higher; not beaten many home in three runs since and a visor is now reached for (has been wearing cheekpieces). |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Produced a strong finish to win a 6f handicap at York last month; strong in the betting back at York three weeks ago but could manage only seventh after his rider removed his blindfold late; still has handicapping scope. |
8/1 |
|
7th 9 (12) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Well backed when coming from off the pace to beat 18 rivals over C&D 13 days ago; a 4lb rise doesn't look excessive; respected. |

1st 20 (14) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

7f winner at Redcar last November; two solid efforts (6f/7f, good ground) last month but he will need more if he is to defy this mark. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 20y |
9st 11lb |
Raced mostly over 7f in Britain for David O'Meara, winning Thirsk maiden and going close in a couple of low-grade handicaps; bought for 9,000gns at Tattersalls last month and probably best watched over a trip which may stretch her. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a maiden over C&D last summer; back to form with a front-running second of seven in a fillies' handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm; tongue tied first time) nine days ago; on a dangerous mark and one of two solid contenders for David O'Meara. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Thirsk maiden last June (7f, good); good third over this C&D next time (good to firm) but has been very disappointing on her last four starts (two of them this season); customary hood is absent and first-time tongue-tie goes on; has plenty to prove. |

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. |
40/1 |
|
6th 10 (13) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
The handicapper has been in command since his runaway win at Leicester (6f, good) in April; today's return to sprinting is in his favour but he's likely to be vulnerable at this level. |
