5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice on AW (6f) in February; on a competitive mark on that evidence but he is yet to win on turf and he was well beaten, albeit in a higher grade and on heavy ground, on last month's return to action; others appeal more for win purposes. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Heavy-ground turf win last October and he comes here on the back of second-place finishes at Newcastle (5f) and here (6f); sneaking back up the weights but should give it another good go. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 10 (5) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Both of his wins have been on turf, with the most recent coming at Bath (5.7f, heavy) in October; went from the front when beaten a neck at Newcastle (5f, AW) 20 days ago and won't have an issue with the return to this trip. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
He's raced mainly on AW and good or quicker turf but the return to soft ground suited when value for more than a 1l winning margin at Ripon (6f) recently considering he didn't get the best of runs; interesting back up 3lb. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Doubled his tally at Thirsk (7f) in July and twice a runner-up since, latest in eight-runner handicap at Redcar (6f) ten days ago; this consistent type is a likely player once more off the same mark. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |

A two-time 6f/7f scorer this season; posted another solid effort with sixth of 11 in 7f Haydock handicap 15 days ago; this consistent sort must enter calculations. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time winner whose last success was over C&D in May; hasn't made a serious impact since then but he did best of the hold-up performers here (fifth of 11) here last time and is now back on his last winning mark; dangerous. |
11/2 |
|
5th 2 (9) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Resumed winning ways over C&D in May and in good form until just seventh of 12 in 6f Newmarket handicap 25 days ago; the sort to bounce back. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (11) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained a second C&D success in August and has continued in good form, runner-up in 5f Newcastle handicap 18 days ago; form has been franked, so he must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 2 (9) |
1st Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Returned from a short break to win at Wolverhampton (6f) in August and two creditable 5f runs have followed; returning to Clas 6 company will help; each-way shout. |
8/1 |
|
4th 10 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Caused a surprise with his 25-1 win at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last month but he came up short when dropped back to 5f there (fourth of nine) last time; that wasn't a bad effort but he needs to find more to defy this mark. |

9st 5lb |
Beaten 19 times since his C&D win in March 2025; running well in defeat in recent starts and there is no obvious reason why he wouldn't be in the thick of it again. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 8 (11) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Yet to score on turf but he's holding his form well this season and comes here on the back of a good third of eight in 5f Newcastle handicap 12 days ago; in the mix once more eased 1lb. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
His only win from 20 starts came when long odds-on for a C&D maiden in March 2025; there have been plenty of placed efforts amongst his 17 handicap defeats and he has slipped to the lowest mark of his career; respected. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice on the AW over 6f last December, the most recent coming off a mark 6lb higher than today's, but he hasn't been at his best in recent starts; tries 7f for just the third time with a visor now added. |
20/1 |

10th 12 (6) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
In good form on AW at the end of 2025, winning twice on AW; well handicapped on that form but his three turf runs this summer have been underwhelming; market can guide as to whether a revival is expected. |
20/1 |
|
5th 4 (10) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Seems happiest on Tapeta, albeit he's a course winner, and has still to prove he's up to this mark on turf; two poor efforts this summer, after a break, leave him some way down the pecking order. |

Won twice at Yarmouth last year (6f; good to firm/good to soft) but he hasn't been at his best this term; has won over C&D but others have stronger claims. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Ran well when a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month, but didn't back it up at Pontefract (5f, good; first-time hood) a fortnight ago; opposable given his wide draw and a losing run of 22. |
10/1 |
|
7th 9 (7) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Losing run up to 21, but he ran well to finish a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month; a few winners have come out of that race and a hood is given a go, but the drop to 5f may not be ideal even on a stiff track like this. |
7/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

Very useful juvenile/3yo for Roger Varian but his last win was in February 2024 and he's not made an impact in seven runs this year; mark continues to fall but losing run is up to 20 and others are preferred. |

12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

17th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Has conditions to suit and he has run well in two of his last three starts; should give his running but likely a few of today's field will have his measure. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 6 (10) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Rarely runs at this track but has won six times over 6f on Tapeta at Newcastle/Southwell and belied 33-1 odds when close third over 7f here in July; could not get involved from off the pace at Southwell (6f) last month but a return to more positive tactics might show him in a better light. |
12/1 |
|
14th 10 (5) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has won on turf but better on the AW and gave it a good go under a front-running ride last month at Wolverhampton (7f; just behind On Key); better known for his exploits at this trip; an exposed 9yo but not without hope. |

Winner of 13 races and just 1lb higher than for the latest, but quiet in two starts at Southwell (6f, AW) since returning in February; needs to step up. |
