5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice over 6f at Doncaster this summer, the second win coming off a 1lb higher mark; struggled on his last four starts and a full revival is required. |
20/1 |

14th 4 (10) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Landed a pair of 6f handicaps here in early summer; well below form elsewhere on all three runs since, only 17th at York and Thirsk on last two outings, but the return to Doncaster ensures he retains some interest on this first 5f venture since reappearance. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Landed a pair of 6f handicaps at Doncaster in early summer but he's been well below par both runs since, only 17th in 6f York handicap last time; lots more is needed. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
1-21 (7f, good); inconsistent but best effort this season would give him claims from this mark and he was competitive at Nottingham (6f, good) latest; not written off. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 9 (10) |
1st Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Sole win in 7f novice as a 2yo; he has at least dropped a few pounds since last autumn and it should be close with Ingleby Archie on C&D form (good) in June; not so good on AW since though and more needed. |
16/1 |

10th 6 (10) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Still to win a handicap and has had plenty of chances for this yard; fair effort over C&D last time (behind Hectic) and is 2lb lower but he's some way down the pecking order. |

27th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Close third of 26 off this mark at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to firm) in July and he's better than he showed on his two starts since (6f/7f, good to soft/soft); however, he needs to bounce back today and his last four wins have come over 6f. |
16/1 |

11th 11 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Third of 26 in a 6f handicap at Glorious Goodwood but then disappointed when 4-1 at Hamilton; lacks the same appeal as some in here, especially when 6f has always looked his trip. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Scored at Leicester (6f) in April; running well since and just edged out when third of 26 in 6f Goodwood handicap 23 days ago; that form is proving very strong, so he merits serious consideration despite 2lb rise. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won her first two starts in handicaps last summer and had excuses off her revised mark latterly; a surprise maiden win on comeback last spring gives hope as she returns from eight months off and she remains low mileage. |
8/1 |
|

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Progressive type with three 6f wins from six attempts, the latest at Carlisle (good to soft) in July; another fine effort when beaten 1l at Haydock (7f, good to firm; pulled hard) last month; this switch back to sprinting looks a positive move and she's high on the list again. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three C&D runs, winning two (soft and good to firm) and a solid third of eight last month; made the running and faded at Chester since but he's better judged on the earlier runs; on the premises. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Notched a fourth success of 2026 at Salisbury (6f) in August and posted another good effort with third of eight there (6f) eight days ago; handles this track well and has won on soft ground so must enter calculations. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins this year include two over C&D (soft/good to firm), which makes him 2-2 here; normally reliable sort who can be excused his sixth at Windsor last time, when he was one of two that pursued a fruitless exploration of the far rail; could well bounce back. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
A fairly useful 5f/6f winner in 2025; yet to add to that in 2026 but comes here in decent nick, staying on into eighth of 21 in 5.5f York handicap 13 days ago; can go well off a 2lb lower mark here with this return to 6f also a plus. |

He hasn't won yet in 2026 but he has looked to retain plenty of ability and his latest Pontefract second (6f, good to firm) was a solid effort; should appreciate this intermediate trip and he has a big run in him. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Dual AW winner who finished well to snatch third in a Class 4 handicap at Ascot (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago; looks interesting off 1lb lower here and he is tactically versatile. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Dual AW winner for Andrew Balding, latterly last June, who hasn't truly threatened on his last four turf starts for this yard; cannot be completely dismissed from this declining mark, though. |
12/1 |

7th 2 (11) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won two AW races for Andrew Balding whom he left for 60,000gns; he's not always looked entirely straightforward but he was less than 2l away last time at Newmarket (7f, good) after being in rear at one point; Tom Marquand takes over now; respected. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has done nothing but progress since the visor went on, winning five of his last eight starts (including C&D) and going up 31lb in the weights; off for eight months since winning at Goodwood in September and will need another career-best off this mark. |
8/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Has won four of his last seven starts at 6f, on AW then back on turf at Doncaster (good to firm) in June; up 7lb but it was a solid sixth of 22 at York (good) in July, when he raced away from the main action; drying ground would be a likely positive and he's firmly in the picture. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |

Not the force of old but handicapped accordingly; only seen once since February and he didn't offer a great deal; usually held up so he will need plenty of luck in running from the inside stall. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

10th 4 (1) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

His wins have come on slow ground but he was beaten only 3l in a big field at York (7f, good to firm) last month; that was a creditable effort after a slow start and he ran well over this trip at Ayr on his penultimate run; could be dangerous. |
