15th Oct 2026 Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
One of two for in-form yard; 5-13 on the AW but just 1-10 on turf; that sole success came this time last year at Navan (5f, soft) and he's 4lb lower than when beaten 0.75l in the Rockingham here in June (5f, good); not discounted. |

26th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 5f 0y |

Best form has been on the AW but still ran sixth of 24 in a seriously competitive 6f handicap here a fortnight ago; dropping back to 5f won't hurt. |

Better AW performer, gaining fifth win last month at Dundalk over this trip; some good turf efforts in defeat earlier in season, notably Rockingham staying on third at this venue (5f); runs off 6lb lower turf mark here and has to be respected. |

Absent since winning in first-time blinkers (retained) over C&D three months ago on second start for new yard and on AW; unexposed in this sphere and still has leeway in the handicap (peak mark was 16lb higher). |

1st Nov 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

In and out for George Scott this season but not disgraced over 7f at Chelmsford (AW debut) three weeks ago; can compete off a career-low mark so would have real possibilities if revitalised by a change of stable. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Won on soft in Ireland and two good 5f wins for this yard, at Pontefract and in the Dash at Epsom, were on good to soft; he checked out quickly over this C&D two starts ago and fared no better at Haydock since but can't give up on him down in grade; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
3/1 |

9th 3 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Well below best at Hamilton latest (connections thought the ground was quicker than the official good) but he had been an up and comer for the yard previously, winning first two starts over 5f (AW and good to soft), then the Dash at Epsom (also good to soft) in June; 6lb higher than the latter win but these conditions are ideal and has more to come; yard has won two of the last three runnings. |
6/1 |

9st 9lb |
Made it 3-5 since joining Mick Appleby when seeing off 19 rivals in the Epsom Dash (5f, good to soft) eight weeks ago; had the advantage of racing against the near rail but most of his 6lb rise is offset by the promising Conor Whiteley's claim. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two-time 6f winner at Newcastle early in 2026; not at his best in the mud at Haydock (6f) 11 days ago but had twice shaped with some promise at Ripon prior to that, so he's very much one to consider now 1lb below his last winning mark. |
8/1 |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Landed a pair of 6f Newcastle handicaps early in 2026; back in good form of late, and first home in his group when sixth of 20 in 6f Ripon handicap 20 days ago; this C&D winner is very much one to consider. |

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

Impressive in this race in 2024 when rated 3lb higher; mixed bag this summer but his two best turf runs have come over C&D and this represents an ease in grade; can't rule out. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winner, mainly over 6f, the latest when 2lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) in April; went close when on this mark in successive starts last month, before a below-par effort in a big-field York sprint latest; player if he can bounce back. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

C&D winner; runner-up on his last two starts but this is more competitive and more minor money may be his best hope. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |

Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Needs things to fall right but capable when they do, as when scoring at Southwell (6f) last month; his latest Redcar run is easy to forgive and Jason Hart has a good record for the in-form Michael Herrington stable. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |

Doubled his tally for the season in 12-runner handicap at Southwell (6f) 12 days ago; up 4lb but scored comfortably there, so this reliable sort is a likely player once more. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Drawn away from the action on his return to turf but was then said to have been unsuited by the undulations of Catterick last time, which would be a concern round here; 2lb above his last winning mark and has a bit to prove back from a short break. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He's dropped to a mark fully 15lb lower than when a close fourth over C&D last August; however, this regressive 5yo has struggled to get competitive this year; a first-time visor replaces a tongue-tie. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Should be well handicapped but that has been the case for a while and his losing run stretches back 18 months; attracted support at Yarmouth last month (7f, good) but fared no better; now tried in a tongue-tie. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |

Three wins in 2024 but he has drawn a blank since; returns to his optimum trip off a reduced mark and this is his first Class 5 handicap for some time; not solid but he has the ability to go well. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Only fifth of nine over C&D (soft) last month but went off too hard in first-time cheekpieces (retained); completed a hat-trick on soft/heavy ground last autumn and he was also on the scoresheet at Sandown (5f, good) this June; all those wins came under Grace McEntee who is back on board today. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Multiple sprint wins on ground ranging from good to heavy; back to best when making all at Sandown in June and he might have needed the run there last week following a break; now goes in cheekpieces which raises a question as blinkers weren't a successful addition in the past. |

String of consistent efforts before winning off 3lb lower in a less-competitive Nottingham handicap last month; found it beyond him under a penalty a few days later and, while he's fine round here, he's weighted to his best again. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |

Ultra-consistent and arrives following a solid effort at Thirsk (same mark as tonight; his last winning rating); boasts a good record at this time of year and this is less competitive, so his claims are obvious. |
