29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Handy sort who has been successful three times on the AW this year; has won four times on turf, but was found to have bled at Ayr last time; others more convincing. |

|
6th 4 (4) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Successful three times over 6f on Newcastle AW this year; ran well at Musselburgh (7f, good; neck second) returned to turf last week; now 2lb higher but Cara Tuke removes 7lb; respected in current form. |

2nd 3 (10) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Made it three wins in his last four starts (all 6f at Newcastle) when seeing off ten rivals in an apprentice race last week; former C&D scorer so the step back up in trip shouldn't be an issue and he escapes a penalty. |

2nd 8 (5) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Still 5lb below his last winning mark and was having only his third start for the yard when beaten a neck by a much better-fancied stablemate at Catterick (7f, good) eight days ago; already due a 2lb rise for that and no surprise if he steps up again; major player. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 7 (11) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won over C&D (for Declan Carroll) last July and he competes here from a 5lb lower mark; lacked the pace to challenge on first two starts for Ruth Carr (who also saddles Filey Beach) so stepping back up to 7f rates as a positive move; wide draw, yet still merits respect. |
11/2 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Mixed bag for his former stable but he looked a cut above this level on occasions; joint-favourite for his stable/seasonal debut at Thirsk 19 days ago and ran on for a never-dangerous fifth; he will need to build on that effort to win here but that is not out of the question. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
1-19 and his best form has come on the AW, albeit he didn't run very well at Southwell last time and his previous fourth of 13 at Thirsk (1m, good) was better; frame material again based on that effort. |
10/1 |
|
9th 10 (10) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Placed twice here in March prior to getting off the mark at Newcastle (1m, AW), winning by a nose; ran a solid race when fourth of 13 at Thirsk (1m, good) 27 days ago and has claims back on this surface. |
9/1 |

4th 8 (13) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Placed twice in March prior to making it 17th time lucky at Newcastle (1m) a fortnight ago; arrives fit and in form but eighth is the best he's managed in four previous turf outings. |

0-7; showed plenty of ability in both starts on soft ground as a 2yo, but has regressed in an abbreviated career since; best watched. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 5lb |
Beaten around 4l by Jet Warrior when second of ten at Ayr (6f, good to firm) nine days ago and a 5lb pull is probably nowhere near enough; only win in 31 starts came in a 0-50 classified event. |
10/1 |

2nd 7 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
1-30; that win a narrow one at Newcastle (6f) in March 2025; runner-up at that same venue (5f) two months ago but less productive at Thirsk and Hamilton since; the least likely of the three Jim Goldie-trained runners. |

5th 12 (3) |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not the most prolific, but he was returning from 134 days off when beaten just a neck at Musselburgh (7f, good) last month; respected off 1lb higher if coming on from that. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 9 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner (good) last October; also runner-up off today's mark back here in November and could play a prominent role again if fully primed after 134 days off. |
11/1 |
|
12th 1 (10) |
21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Useful in previous incarnation over longer trips; on handy mark now and after running fast for a long way over C&D (first 6f run) in September he won with plenty to spare at Musselburgh (7f; visor off) last week; the ability is there to make light of a 4lb penalty. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won four times in 2024, but losing run up to 14 despite a tumbling mark; fair effort when fourth of 13 at Catterick (7f, good) 18 days ago, though, and the winner has gone in again since; each way claims. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
He needs to produce a bigger performance than he's managed over 6f on his four starts this spring but he hasn't been running badly and is dropping down the weights; showed promise over 7f at Carlisle last September and the step back up in trip may be a positive move; possible player. |
9/1 |
|
6th 6 (10) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a dangerous mark now and his three runs this year have offered hope that his losing run could be snapped imminently; effective on AW and likely to be involved. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Made a successful handicap debut at Newcastle (7f, AW) last September, but there was a heavy defeat on his return to turf at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) five weeks ago. |
16/1 |
|
15th 8 (5) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Improved for the switch to handicaps when winning at Newcastle (7f) in September and bettered that form when third over 6f at Southwell (also AW) in November; had wind surgery before respectable comeback over latter C&D one month ago; unexposed on turf and worth a second look. |
12/1 |

5th 2 (7) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Improved for the switch to handicaps when winning a 7f event at Newcastle last September; better form when third in a Class 5 handicap over C&D in November; had wind surgery after a weak finishing effort here (7f) 88 days ago; not fully exposed and he commands respect. |
