Two wins this year, notably when seeing off 16 rivals in the 'Jump Jockeys' Nunthorpe' at York (5f, good to firm) in July; only ninth at Ripon and Chester since, though. |

9th 6 (2) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |

Two wins this year, notably when seeing off 16 rivals in the 'Jump Jockeys' Nunthorpe' at York (5f, good to firm) in July; unplaced in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon four weeks ago; well drawn but a career best is required to win. |

Fared best of the stands' side group when second in this race 12 months ago; races off 3lb higher this time around but he confirmed his liking for the track with a C&D win in April and he was better than ever when beating 16 rivals at York (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; high on the list. |

Double his tally at Newbury (6f) and backed it up with a good fourth of seven in 6f handicap at Ripon later in June; off since but can't be dismissed. |
7/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Has been in good form in 6f handicaps this season, including second over C&D in April (good to soft) and third at Carlisle in May (good to firm); won his first race on turf when prevailing at Newbury last week (good to soft); has a penalty but sound chance. |
5/4 |

1st 4 (1) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

A Southwell maiden win last summer remains his only success after 15 attempts but he has run good races in defeat in all three starts this year; conditions should suit well and he is more appealing than most. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
He has been revived by a switch to AW of late, finishing a close third at Wolverhampton (6f) last month before a dominant win back at that track 22 days ago; up 6lb but still feasibly weighted on his turf best; big player from a handy draw. |
11/2 |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

Looked as good as ever when close third of 16 on seasonal debut at Ripon (6f, good to soft) in April but his form has dipped since and he has questions to answer on this AW debut. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
He's dropped to a favourable mark and there is every chance that he will exploit it at some point, but he was a soundly beaten fourth of eight behind Belsito at Hamilton (6f, soft) eight days ago and has work to do here. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (4) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Encouraging return to turf when never-nearer close fourth at Ripon (6f, good to soft; has won on soft) in April and he wasn't far away in a big field back there in August; on a favourable mark now; not far away. |
8/1 |
|
7th 8 (18) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Well handicapped on this year's best, including a close fourth over C&D in April; has had the odd excuse since and he ran perfectly well over an inadequate 5f at York three weeks ago (not well drawn); a big run could be on the cards. |

Scored over C&D in first-tiime cheekpieces on stable debut in July and followed up with narrow success at Epsom (6f, good to firm) last month; could still have more improvement to come for James Owen; must be considered. |

|
1st 7 (3) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Signed off for Tim Easterby with two good efforts in the spring and made winning stable debut at Southwell (6f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month; will be fine back on turf and could still have more to offer for new stable; major player. |
7/4 |

1st 12 (8) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Expensive to follow this season, having missed ten months, for Tim Easterby; run well on Tapeta before and a couple of times in a visor too, so it wouldn't surprise were to to take this in first-time cheekpieces. |

Series of good runs this summer but his losing run is up to 16 and he has a wide stall to negotiate; more minor money perhaps his best hope. |

|
4th 2 (3) |
16th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Without a victory since 2024 but he comes here in very good nick, runner-up in 6f handicaps at York and Ripon last two outings; yard has excellent record in this so he's a player. |

2nd 1 (1) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Winless since 2024 but he's holding his form well this summer, posting a good second of 21 in 6f York handicap in July; very much one to consider despite 2lb weights rise. |

Has struggled since finishing first and second over 6f at Pontefract (both good) at the start of the summer but is well handicapped again; has yet to prove himself at 7f, though. |
16/1 |
|
10th 10 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won off reduced mark at Pontefract (6f, good) in June and also has a C&D success on his CV but needs to up his game after three down-the-field turf runs this summer (6f-7f). |
16/1 |

11th 1 (5) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Resumed winning ways at Pontefract (6f) in June but below par in big-field 6f handicaps at York on his last two runs; this course scorer needs to bounce back on a rare run over 7f. |

Runner-up in the 2022 running in sole C&D start; has dropped back to just below his winning mark at Beverley (about 7f; made all in four-runner race) in July but not in much form since; now goes in a visor (won in cheekpieces much earlier in career); revival needed. |

3rd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Boasts a solid record over C&D, latterly when fourth to New Image from a similar draw last weekend; yard been among the winners and he's at least entitled to close the gap on 6lb better terms. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (11) |
26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Boasts a good record over C&D; has never run on the AW off a mark this high (ran exclusively on turf since last spring) but unlucky not to have picked up a handicap this season and this is a touch easier back on Tapeta. |
12/1 |
|
6th 20 (5) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
A five-time scorer in 2025, including over C&D; runner-up in 6f handicaps at York and Redcar this summer and not ideally drawn with 14th in 6f Ripon handicap last time; not ruled out. |

9th 11 (8) |
3rd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Hold-up sprinter who boasts a poor strike-rate; often run well on Tapeta, is back down to a career-low mark and should get this run to suit in a big field, so no surprise were he to pop up switched from turf. |
14/1 |
|
12th 16 (14) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
7yo who has a poor strike-rate and was underwhelming at Carlisle and Ripon on last two outings; a return to form is needed but he was runner-up three times in a row earlier in the summer, with two of those over C&D, and his last win came over C&D; might not be far away back here. |

Similar weights chance to Woodstock on their Ripon form (6f, good) in August when first home on his side; gained a deserved first win of 2026 at Pontefract 12 days ago and he has a 2-2 record over this C&D (also won over 7f here) so looks primed for a good run; yard runs two. |

6th 15 (3) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
A four-time scorer (including C&D on good) in 2025; 0-12 this year but arrives on the back of a couple of respectable efforts over 6f at Ripon and is on a fair mark, particularly if the 5lb claim of Jake Dickson (who partners him for the first time) is taken into account. |

On a losing sequence but seemed rejuvenated by the refitting of a hood when a good third of ten in 7f Beverley handicap last month, nearest finish having had to wait for a run over 1f out; course winner who is effective over this shorter trip and a likely player off a reduced mark. |
