30th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Course winner (7.6f, soft) for Andrew Balding last summer; not beaten far in the 7.6f handicap won by Supido 24 days ago (poor draw) and confirmed that promise with a Class 3 win at Thirsk a fortnight ago (7f, good); a 3lb rise shouldn't prove beyond him and Warren Fentiman's claim is a bonus. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Won a useful Chester seller for Andrew Balding last September; not at best in two runs for current yard, although the draw did him no favours back at Chester on latest; falling in the weights and not ruled out. |

Had a below-par Al Shabab Storm in behind when winning a useful C&D seller (soft) for Andrew Balding last September; made a respectable start for new connections when seventh of 12 over 7f at Thirsk (good) 18 days ago; entitled to come on for the outing but the draw hasn't done him any favours here. |

Promising reappearance after wind surgery when fourth at Newcastle (6f) but has taken two backward steps since; has his first run beyond sprint distances here and needs to bounce back after seven weeks off. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 2 |

Excelled as a 3yo but found the handicapper in command last year; promising reappearance at Newcastle six weeks ago (first run after wind surgery) and he is on a dangerous mark; widest stall to deal with but foolish to discount. |

9st 9lb |
On a 16-race losing run but down the weights as a result and he was on the heels of the winner when third of 12 at Thirsk (7f) 11 days ago; having his first race here; thereabouts if he takes to it. |

3rd 14 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
On a 15-race losing run but he's well handicapped as a result and his stable is in fine form; almost certainly needed the run when seventh of 13 over C&D four weeks ago, fading; likely to build on that and more persuasive than most. |
12/1 |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
She's been a promising fourth on two of her three starts this season, at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) in March and here (7f, good) a fortnight ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained); might not be far away. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |

0-13 since her successful racecourse debut albeit highly tried on occasions, but she made a fine return when fourth of 22 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) 15 days ago and that form has already received a boost; well drawn and a big player from the same mark; stable also runs Callianassa. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Useful for Karl Burke in his younger days, although only win was a York novice on debut (6f, good); best run for Roger Fell when fifth over 7f at Thirsk last time, when shaping as though he might stay 1m (can pull hard); tongue-tie now tried. |
3/1 |

5th 7 (11) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Didn't build on successful debut for Karl Burke and he's been unplaced on all nine starts since; no immediate promise in two runs for current yard (wore cheekpieces on latest) and probably best watched for the time being. |
20/1 |

12th 14 (10) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Finished last in final start for Karl Burke and midfield effort on reappearance (AW) took his record since debut success to 0-8; chance largely depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear. |

9st 5lb |
9yo who capitalised on some leniency from the handicapper to win at Musselburgh (7f, good) three weeks ago; goes well there but he's a C&D winner too and he should be in the thick of things again from just 2lb higher. |

9yo who hasn't been at the top of his game on either start this season but wasn't beaten far when sixth of ten over C&D three weeks ago and he's down to a tempting mark; won over C&D last April; possible contender. |

9st 2lb |
Winless since August 2024 but he's hinted at promise of late, set plenty to do (also slipped on bend) when seventh of 12 in 7f Thirsk handicap two weeks ago; needs considering off a falling mark. |
9/1 |

7th 10 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Hasn't won for nearly two years but he's well handicapped now and he shaped much better than the result suggests when seventh of ten at Haydock (7f, good; badly hampered over 1f out) last Saturday; should go close if getting the rub of the green this time. |

7th 6 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |

He should be winning races off this mark and his down-the-field effort at Doncaster six weeks ago isn't the race to judge him on; better can be expected back up at 7f. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

He had a very good run on AW in the spring, winning three in a row over 6f, but was last to finish on his latest start in May; it's hard to see him breaking his turf duck off an 18lb higher mark than his most recent defeat on grass in June 2024. |

Two narrow AW wins at 6f and 7f over the winter months; never involved back on turf at Thirsk (7f, good) recently and although this is less competitive her stamina for a tough 7f like this still has to be proved. |

Twice a winner (1m/1m1f) in Ireland for Dermot Weld; improved a bit on just second start for new connections when beaten narrowly at Chester (7f, good) last week, always in the firing line; a 3lb rise should not prevent another bold bid. |

Won at the Curragh (1m1f) on seasonal/handicap debut in June and doubled his tally in Killarney conditions event (1m, also good) in August; big disappointment on final start for Dermot Weld in late September but new connections had to go to 150,000gns to secure him one month later; unexposed and interesting to see how he goes in the market ahead of this first start at 7f. |

Ended a long losing run with back-to-back wins from the front over 7f at Catterick last October; found out in a higher grade at Musselburgh on final start; fifth is the best he's managed in four AW starts (all here) and it's likely best to look elsewhere on reappearance. |

Two wins from just four attempts; comfortably beat four rivals in Carlisle novice (7f, good to firm) last August and she became upset in the preliminaries before running poorly on handicap debut here next time; retains potential and she's an interesting candidate after a layoff. |
