Hard to win with (3-30) but had a consistent campaign and suffered interference last time at Beverley; 7f specialist. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Versatile tactically and his last win was here in June; 6lb higher now but was runner-up off this mark at Lingfield four days ago (7f AW) when in first-time cheekpieces; each-way claims. |
11/2 |

2nd 5 (1) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Beverley (7.4f, good) in June and he ran another good race when a clear second there last time; this return to Polytrack is no problem and he should give it another good shot with cheekpieces added. |

Prominent racer; made all to win at Musselburgh in June and he followed that with a solid second at Beverley three weeks ago; each-way shout. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |

Off the mark for the season when winning by a neck at Musselburgh last time (7f, good); could go well again but bit disappointing in only previous run here. |

A bit to prove in the reapplied visor and back over 6f, with his last win coming at 7f; badly drawn last time at Chester but disappointed the run before as well. |
14/1 |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |

Ended a long losing run when scoring over 7f here (good to soft) last month but he wasn't in the same form at Epsom last week; has bit to prove again after that and he hasn't had much luck with the draw. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten 16 times since a Dundalk maiden win in October 2024; series of good runs this summer, including tried in blinkers at Ayr last week, but he has work to do with Runninsonofagun on that evidence. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 3 (7) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Sole win in 7f AW maiden at Dundalk as 3yo; slightly frustrating for this yard as he's been involved in some tight finishes for them, including in this race last year and when just behind Supreme Clarets at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) in July, but fitting blinkers could help; solid chance, if so. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 1 (3) |
9th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Won a 7f Dundalk maiden on his second start but beaten 14 times since; went close at Musselburgh (7f, good) last month though and a subsequent lesser effort can be partially excused by him getting upset in the stalls. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just 1-22 but scores good marks for her consistency since 6f AW win in January; denied clear run before keeping on for fifth in recent C&D contest won by Jkr Cobbler; each-way claims at least. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Largely consistent mare who was third over 6f at Hamilton on her last two appearances; also suited by this longer trip and won't mind if the ground is slower than good; probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |

Largely consistent mare who was respectable third of seven when dropped back in trip for C&D (good to soft) amateur riders' race a fortnight ago; probably won't be far away. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three AW wins; 0-9 on turf but has a 7f race in him on grass on best form in the spring and had another troubled run at Beverley on Friday; has worn various aids on last two starts, goes without this time. |
11/2 |
|
11th 3 (7) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On a long losing run as he's winless since 2024; ran okay in a new hood/cheekpieces combination at Musselburgh but has another change of headgear now; others probably safer. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
On a long losing run but he looked an unlucky second over C&D in April and hasn't enjoyed the rub of the green since, short of room last 1f when fifth at Catterick (7f) last time; weighted to go well off a reduced mark with cheekpieces added (hood also refitted). |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-35, with the latest success coming at Lingfield (7f, AW) in December off a mark 8lb higher than today's; never featured over this trip at Wolverhampton 31 days ago and better is needed. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, and most racing, come over 7f, including when making all on his second start for this yard on Polytrack off 6lb higher in the winter; not at his best lately and, while well drawn, may not get his own way as he likes back down in trip. |
16/1 |
|
7th 6 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield in December, his second start for Mark Loughnane; in and out since that success but no doubt he is handicapped to go well and he has run well over C&D in the past (including finishing second in this race year off 4lb higher); one to consider with Billy Loughnane back in the saddle. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Got the gaps, strong at the finish, when successful over C&D in June (17-2; from this mark - Flying Fletcher fourth); failed to build on that until hinting at a return to form at Doncaster (7f; sixth, 22-1; blindfold off late) latest; one to consider. |
4/1 |
|
6th 8 (13) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Scored at Newcastle (1m) in June but he has failed to reproduce it in three turf outings since and came in last of 11 at Haydock (7f) eight days ago; others are much preferred. |
25/1 |
|
11th 4 (10) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won on turf last April and snapped long losing run at Newcastle (1m, AW) in June; however, well beaten back on turf on his last two starts and he needs to turn things around. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Maiden who made an encouraging return from an absence on the AW (1m) last October but he hasn't achieved a lot since and was beaten a fair way out at Ffos Las in July on his yard debut; one to watch for now. |
25/1 |
|
8th 5 (7) |
14th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |

No wins in eight; had placed form for Edward Bethell but signed off for that yard under a cloud; would have claims if he can turn a corner for new yard. |
12/1 |
|
12th 5 (8) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Lightly raced maiden; creditable show over 1m on Southwell AW when returning from absence last October but he dropped right out over 7f at Musselburgh (hood added, now discarded) recently; has question marks now but he had 6f form as a 2yo so the return to shorter is surely worth a go. |

Still to add to his debut win in 14 subsequent outings and it has been tough going so far for this stable; now drops into a Class 6 and a revival wouldn't be out of the question. |
10/1 |

6th 3 (2) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |

Well down the field on all four starts for Jim Goldie this season (6f-7f), most recently in refitted cheekpieces at Hamilton on Wednesday; stable has more obvious chance with Ashen. |
20/1 |

7th 2 (7) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D on his debut when with Richard Fahey (good); hasn't won since and well beaten in three starts for Jim Goldie this time round; plenty to prove at present. |
