6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Has risen to new heights this year, winning six times, the most recent three over 7f on turf (good and soft), but his charmed run ended at Musselburgh last week; runs off the same mark today and has ground to make up on Abduction; may need weight off his back now. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Arrives in the form of his life, completing a turf hat-trick at Ayr (7f, soft) 11 days ago; that made it six wins from his last nine starts and he is respected despite the 6lb rise and stronger opposition. |

Resurgent 7yo who completed a 7f Carlisle double on Monday and has now won five times this year; has 4lb penalty to carry but he won't mind if the ground eases; commands respect in current mood. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Only one of his ten wins has been on turf (record of 1-27); beaten less than 2l when fifth of 12 at Redcar on most recent turf run, but poor effort back on AW next time; others preferred. |
8/1 |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
C&D win was sole 7f success among eight others over 6f; however, he stayed on well and only just failed to get up over Newcastle's stiff 6f in April so a good run isn't impossible in first 7f run since March 2025. |

8st 10lb |
Three wins on AW last year but his last turf success was in April 2022 and he returned to this sphere with a well-held sixth at Thirsk (6f, good; 12-1) last month; others are more appealing. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

9st 12lb |
Two 5f wins for David O'Meara at Newcastle this year, the latter achieved in smooth fashion at the beginning of this month; never a threat when fifth on stable debut at Ayr (5f, soft) ten days ago, taking turf record to 0-9; the headgear she's worn on her last ten starts is left off here. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (8) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two 5f wins for David O'Meara at Newcastle this year, the latest a smooth success in a 0-55 handicap 18 days ago; makes debut for her new stable off a 6lb higher mark with blinkers replacing other forms of headgear; below par in one run on ground slower than good. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Loves it here, with all but one of his eight wins coming over C&D; however, failed to build on reappearance when well last of six over C&D at the end of May so his hopes are pinned on a change of stable (has left Stephen Hanlon) sparking a return to form. |
25/1 |

6th 5 (7) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Loves it here, with all but one of his eight wins coming over C&D; not ground dependent; has been well below par in both starts since last winning (for Ann Duffield) here last September; not ruled out back here with 7lb claimed but it will need one of his better efforts from this mark. |
9/1 |

5th 4 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Yet to win on turf (0-17) and his 'most recent' AW win was at Wolverhampton (6f) in December 2023; nothing positive to take from his last four starts, including when weakening quickly at Musselburgh (7f; 40-1) three weeks ago. |
50/1 |

29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

All three wins came on AW in 2023 when trained by Richard Fahey; only narrowly denied by The Gay Blade over 6f at Newcastle in February but hasn't been in same form since, including behind that reopposing rival there last week. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Her 22 starts have yielded just one win but she was a close second of 18 at 25-1 at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) two starts ago and backed that up when runner-up to at Catterick (7f, good to firm) last Wednesday, albeit no match for the thriving winner; firmly in calculations given recent showings. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 8 (6) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Returned to form with 25-1 second of 18 at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) last week; she can't be dismissed today but she's very inconsistent and has won just one of her 21 races, while the return to 7f also poses a question. |
7/1 |

2nd 16 (19) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

6f AW winner as a 2yo but her losing run stands at 15 and this year's efforts don't suggest it will be ending any time soon. |

21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Runner-up in a classified event over C&D last month but he's hard to predict and was last of eight in a handicap here two weeks ago; finished behind three of today's rivals in that race and that took his losing run up to 18; others preferred. |
12/1 |

8th 8 (5) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

His handicap mark has bottomed out and there have been more encouraging signs on his last two starts, second in a 0-50 classified over C&D 15 days ago; more required today. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ex-Irish; sold for 2,600gns to join current yard in January; fair effort when fourth of 11 in a classified on stable debut at Wolverhampton (6f) last month but well behind The Gay Blade at Newcastle last month; hood off, refitted tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces combination on. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

0-15 in Ireland but she finished second of 17 in a Navan handicap (6f, good) in October; former stable have gone 490 days without a winner and interesting to see how she fares in the market starting out for Daragh Bourke (sold 2,600gns in January); no tongue-tie today but the hood returns. |

Sole win on turf came over two years ago and his last two efforts have been moderate; this mark is fine if first-time cheekpieces spark him back to life, however. |

All five wins have been on turf, rattling up a three-timer in October 2024; it's been downhill since and while cheekpieces replace usual blinkers, he makes little appeal here. |

Finished second here just before Christmas but over 6f; struggled since, including over C&D latest; Sedgemoor is the more obvious of the stable pair. |
