18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Consistent over hurdles for current yard; successful in last two Flat turf attempts, latest at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last month returned to this code; 1-1 over 1m6f and warrants respect. |
11/4 |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over 1m6f at Salisbury (good to soft) for Daisy Hitchins last summer; has been running creditably in defeat over hurdles since joining Tristan Davidson, including placed twice here; leading claims back on the Flat in a race where her rivals have something to prove. |
6/4 |

3rd 6 |
11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Ready Kempton winner (2m novices' handicap, good) for Daisy Hitchins last October; consistent for Tristan Davidson (366233), giving her best when a close third in the Sea Pigeon Series Final at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) recently; 2lb higher but bang there with repeat. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Improved form when runner-up on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) in April and easily made all back there (2m, good) a fortnight ago; he enjoyed the run of the race last time but a 6lb rise isn't harsh in view of this unexposed 7yo's dominance; has to be respected. |
9/4 |

1st 4 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Struggled in bumpers/maiden and novice races on his first five starts but the switch to middle-distance handicaps sparked a good jolt of improvement three weeks ago, finding only the red-hot favourite too strong over 1m4f here; 2m should be within range and he has a top amateur booked; obvious chance of going one better. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Well beaten in two bumpers and three Flat runs at up to 1m3f last year but much more realistic chance now handicapping at a low level after nine months off; one to note in the betting. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Modest maiden on the Flat in Ireland for Jim Bolger and showed little in three hurdles for current yard this year; last month's return to the Flat was much more encouraging though, keeping on strongly over 1m4f at Musselburgh, and she now has something to build on. |
7/2 |

3rd 6 (4) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |

Modest maiden on the Flat in Ireland for Jim Bolger and has shown little in three hurdles for current yard this year; best watched back on the Flat unless the betting suggests otherwise. |

8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Modest maiden in Ireland for Jim Bolger; has shown very little over hurdles for her new yard in Musselburgh juvenile and C&D novice this year; hard to warm to. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 217y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
0-44 under all codes (including three points); gave pretty good account when fourth of nine here (1m4f, good) two starts ago and will be fine over today's trip but can't be recommended from 10lb out of the weights. |
50/1 |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |

Longstanding maiden; effective at the track and ran creditably over 1m4f here last week; still looks opposable for win purposes. |

4th 9 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |

Placed several times (including C&D) but this 10yo remains a longstanding maiden and failed to beat a rival on her Newcastle reappearance seven weeks ago. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
11yo who was a close third over 1m1f at Ayr two starts ago and is versatile trip-wise; however, Ayr brings out the best in him and he was well beaten at Musselburgh last time; 0-4 here, with last visit coming last June. |
25/1 |

5th 3 (5) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran who has won at this track but who is better known for his exploits at Ayr; solid third at that track 16 days ago (1m1f, good to firm); shouldn't be far away if backing it up. |
4/1 |

3rd 7 (3) |

Veteran who has won 11 times here, including three last year (1m2f/1m5f); on a good mark and should come on for his run at Musselburgh last week; contender. |

9st 0lb |
Won at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last August and runner-up at Musselburgh (1m4f, good to soft) next time; however, he's been well below that level so far this season and a major turnaround is necessary. |
16/1 |

8th 11 (7) |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win from 19 attempts came off this mark at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last August and he's also effective on turf; however, he's been soundly beaten on his three outings this spring. |
20/1 |

6th 8 (9) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Came good off a similar mark at Newcastle (1m2f) last summer but well held in two outings there this year; his hopes are pinned on a change of headgear (first-time cheekpieces for blinkers) sparking a revival. |

8st 13lb |
Ended his 2025 campaign with a pair of 1m4f wins, the first of them here and by a wide margin; two heavy defeats this spring but he's the type to pop up soon, perhaps when faced with some slower ground. |
8/1 |

7th 2 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Revitalised in blinkers and ended 2025 with victories over C&D (good to soft) and at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) in September; went without the blinkers when always behind on his Thirsk reappearance 11 days ago but could fare a lot better with the headgear back in place now. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |

Revitalised in blinkers and ended 2025 with 1m4f handicap victories at Musselburgh and Hamilton in September; up 5lb for his reappearance but yard is in good form and can make his presence felt. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

6th 6 (8) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Placed in two novice/maiden events (1m3f/1m2f) when trained by Tom Ward last year but she struggled once switched to handicaps, and failed to beat a rival here on her stable debut 25 days ago; dropped another 5lb. |

Off the mark on AW at Newcastle (1m4f) in September 2024 on his final start for Rebecca Menzies but hasn't seriously threatened in two recent AW outings for new yard since returning from a long absence. |
9/1 |

8th 7 (3) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark at the 17th attempt when winning at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) in September 2024 on his final start for Rebecca Menzies; didn't shape badly here over 1m4f on his stable debut last time having been off for 558 days; may build on that over this longer trip. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (7) |
5th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sent off 1-3 when making it 17th-time lucky at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) in September 2024; has since left Rebecca Menzies (same owners) and the market should reveal what is expected. |
