2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Sits on last winning mark (Ayr, 1m) and has held his form well, finding one stronger in three of his last four, including when picked off inside the final furlong at Doncaster (7f; 11-1) recently; is a modest 1-22 on AW. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Ended a losing sequence at Ayr (1m) in May and largely in good nick since, sixth of ten in 1m handicap at Hamilton two weeks ago; no forlorn hope eased 1lb. |

9st 4lb |
Course winner who added to his tally at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in May; good runner-up efforts there in recent weeks and has to enter calculations. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Resumed winning ways over C&D in June and has continued in good form, drawn wide when third of 15 in 1m Thirsk handicap 18 days ago; that form is working out well so she merits serious consideration off a 1lb lower mark. |
7/2 |

3rd 7 (14) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
A half-length too good for Jesmond Dawn at Ripon in early June when only 1lb lower; hasn't been overly threatening in her last three races. |
14/1 |

4th 4 (6) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ended a losing run when beating 11 rivals at Ripon (1m, good) last month; respectable efforts since without suggesting she was ahead of her mark. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Already a dual winner for current yard, going in over C&D in July; posted another solid effort with fourth of five over C&D last time; can't be discounted. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 (7) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Eight-time turf winner who made 2-6 for Jim Goldie when justifying favouritism over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher and he won't mind if the forecast rain arrives; respected. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
C&D winner last month off 8lb lower and the following week suffered a fall at York; good to see him bounce back from that with a respectable show at Hamilton; this mark might be on the high side. |
7/2 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Had been bubbling under prior to winning easily at Redcar (1m, good to firm) last month; keeping on (although still had a fair bit of ground to make up) when clipping heels and coming down 1f out at York last Saturday; 9lb higher than at Redcar but still a potential class act at this level if that nasty experience last weekend hasn't left a mark. |
4/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Had been bubbling under prior to winning easily at Redcar (1m, good to firm) on Sunday, and given the style of that success he looks an attractive proposition under a 5lb penalty; high on the list. |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Gained last five wins on AW but has proved consistent in Scotland since returned to turf; finished 1l second at Ayr (7f) most recently; reasonably solid contender in current form. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't won on turf for more than three years but he's run plenty of good races this season including when runner-up over C&D (good to firm) in May and close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) in June; hasn't made an impact in last two runs but this drop back in trip is a positive and he's in the mix. |
13/2 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Tough, consistent sort; hasn't won on turf for more than three years but plenty of decent placed runs this term, including when second over 1m here in May (good to firm) and when close third over 6f at Hamilton in June (good to soft); yet to win over 1m. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Yet to win a handicap since landing a 7f Ayr novice in September 2024; steps up in trip off a career-low mark but others preferred. |
7/1 |
|
8th 4 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Down the weights since some ordinary 7f runs in the middle months of 2025 and looked as if he might take advantage shortly when a close second at Thirsk (1m, good) in April following a break; however, he hasn't run to the same level since and needs a revival returned to 7f. |
9/1 |
|
6th 2 (2) |
27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Good second at Thirsk on his seasonal return last month; sent off favourite at Ayr on the strength of it but could only manage sixth of the seven runners behind Starliner (Donna Nook second); cheekpieces return. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Course winner (1m3f) whose latest success was over 1m of soft ground off 9lb higher at Ayr last September; hasn't run as well since; not out of it. |
6/1 |
|
5th 6 (3) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won three times over 1m here last season; yet to hit top gear this year but was placed over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago and remains well handicapped; dangerous to ignore. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple course winner who made all over 1m at this track last September; has generally struggled since but she showed signs of a revival here (fourth of 12) three weeks ago and is now 6lb lower than for her last success; could be dangerous back up in trip and she's versatile ground-wise. |
