20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a solid record and steadily progressive RPRs; won well at Thirsk (good) on penultimate start, then finished 1l second to Monoceros at Haydock (again over 1m; soft) latest; in the mix. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Likeably consistent and overcame a wide draw with ease at Thirsk 22 days ago (1m, good) to earn this 9lb higher mark; that asks questions of him back in a higher grade, but the chances are he's very progressive; fine on soft ground. |
5/1 |

9st 7lb |
Consistent dual winner who coped well with the rise in class when pushing a well-handicapped winner all the way at Ayr six days ago (1m, good; goes on all surfaces); not ideally drawn out in 15 but plenty to like otherwise. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Ayr winner in July (1m, good to firm) and solid runs since then off today's 5lb higher mark, finishing just ahead of Milteye (Walsingham further back) on his return to Ayr and then beating all bar a Prescott 3yo on the AW; hard to knock. |

Gained his seventh success when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in July and ran another solid race there last month off the same mark as today's; respected but he is yet to win off a mark this high. |

9st 9lb |
Two wins at Redcar (1m, good to firm/good) this summer and went very close at Hamilton (1m, heavy) last month; endured a torrid passage when mid-division at Redcar (1m, good) last time and he's firmly in calculations. |
8/1 |

10th 4 (14) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |

Went down by just a nose at Hamilton two weeks ago and he now returns to the C&D of his two wins (good to firm/good) this summer; creeping back up the weights but has plenty in his favour. |

Won at Thirsk (1m) in April and now back to the same mark after ten defeats since; creditable fourth over C&D when last seen 18 days ago but this is more competitive. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |

Scored at Thirsk (1m) in April and mainly in good form since, though beat just two in 1m handicap back there last time; no surprise to see her bounce back, though. |

Ended a long losing run at Carlisle (1m, good) in September and ran creditably when third at Ayr next time; arrives in form but he's 0-8 here and fully exposed. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 (11) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Snapped a losing run dating back to June 2024 when holding on by a neck at Carlisle (1m, good) last week; generally consistent but hardly has the profile of one likely to follow up under a 4lb penalty. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (3) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |

Generally consistent this year but Sunday's York run was a big step backwards; conditions shouldn't be an issue but he has a modest strike-rate and others appeal more for win purposes. |

Landed her third success, at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June off this mark; usually runs her race but ruined her chance with a slow start last time (first-time visor; cheekpieces now return); place claims. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (4) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
C&D win (soft) in June off a 2lb lower mark; solid efforts in defeat since and the forecast rain won't be a problem; still needs the new headgear to squeeze out a bit more. |
10/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Triple turf winner who scored at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and has finished a respectable third at Pontefract in her last two starts; still unexposed on AW and she should be in the mix again back in this sphere. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won 22-runner Class 5 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) in March and added to tally at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) in May; runner-up off this mark at Newmarket (1m) on penultimate start; fine on AW (4-33), so he's one of the likeliest. |
7/2 |

6th 1 (3) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) and Thirsk (1m, good to firm) in the spring and he got back to his best when going very close over C&D two weeks ago; only 1lb higher and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |
15/8 |

2nd 2 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Doubled his tally on turf with big-field amateur riders' win at Doncaster (good to soft) in March and he scored again at Thirsk (also 1m, good to firm) in May; was better than ever with those wins but he's not threatened in his last three starts and he's still 5lb higher than for his last success; others are more persuasive. |

9st 4lb |
C&D winner in May and also runner-up here in June/July (all good to firm; won on soft in Ireland earlier in career); has ended the summer in equally good form, including getting his head back in front at Newcastle (1m) 12 days ago but he's yet to win back to back in his 54-race career. |
11/2 |

1st 6 (1) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
An infrequent winner but he's run many good races on this track to go with his 7f win in late 2024; another sound effort when going close over this C&D on Wednesday and he shouldn't be far away. |

9st 0lb |
Scored over 7f here in June and doubled his tally for the season in 6f Wolverhampton claimer in July; last of seven back in handicap company at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago so has a bit to prove in a change of headgear. |

4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

1st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Realistically weighted on his best efforts last year and his second run in March was better than the first; however, his AW exploits are unconvincing. |
