5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
10st 8lb |
1m course winner (stays 1m3f) who won back-to-back starts at Beverley (both 8.5f, sound surface) in May/June; below par here (1m, good) on her penultimate start but posted a better effort at Redcar (1m1f, good to firm) latest; needs another step back in the right direction. |
14/1 |

5th 3 (6) |
19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Bagged a pair of 8.5f Beverley handicaps this summer but she ran poorly in her hat-trick bid at Pontefract (1m) last time; she's the sort to bounce back though. |

Prevailed by 1l last time to complete a Beverley double; back in good form but she failed in two previous hat-trick attempts and was beaten off 2lb lower (finished fourth) in this race 12 months ago. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Novice winner who is 0-12 in handicaps but has shown positive signs with second-place finishes at Beverley (behind Anificas Beauty on worse terms) and Hamilton the last twice, despite taking a good hold both times; possibilities, especially if settling better. |
7/2 |

2nd 5 (4) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Only win so far was in a Catterick novice in May 2025 (7f, good to firm); best run this term when second at Beverley last time (8.5f, good to firm); a possible. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Landed back-to-back handicaps over C&D and at Beverley (8.5f) in May; recorded a good third of seven at Redcar (1m) last time so can't be dismissed. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 3 (2) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark when making all at Ripon (1m, good) in May and followed up at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) next time; faded into eighth of 11 at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 11 days ago but may get an easier time of things in front this time. |
7/1 |

8th 2 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |

In good form, winning at Ripon (1m, good) and Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) before a decent third off this mark (10lb higher than second win) back at Beverley last time (8.5f, good to firm); should go well. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran who has a good chance on some of his 2026 handicap form over 8.5f at Beverley, including latest start, and gives the impression this return to 1m2f is worth exploring. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
C&D record read 14224 before June's below-par run, and a foray into classified company since bore no fruit either; wouldn't dismiss outright from this lowest mark he's ever raced off in a handicap, however. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Scored twice at 1m last autumn but she's yet to fire in 1m handicaps at Doncaster and Ripon this season; needs to take a major step forward. |
12/1 |
|
10th 6 (8) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Landed a brace at Ayr and Nottingham around 1m last October on heavy; still lightly raced and should be better for the run when tenth of 22 in amateurs' handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) in March; one to keep an eye on. |
7/1 |
|
10th 19 (14) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Too early to pigeonhole her as a mudlark but her form did take off when faced with soft and heavy going last autumn, winning at Ayr and Nottingham (both around 1m); only sixth on good ground when last seen; likely she has more to offer this year but perhaps when underfoot conditions are more demanding. |

8st 11lb |
Had a hurdles win in spring 2025 and 2026; ten-race maiden on Flat but placed in four of his five attempts this year, including three times over C&D; had wind surgery after latest but firmly in the mix if all is okay. |

Scored twice over 7f here in 2025; got back on track with second of 13 in 7f handicap at Beverley three weeks ago; up 2lb but very much one to consider. |

Dual C&D winner; got up late to win a handicap at Beverley (7.5f, good) last month and ran another respectable race when fourth in a classified event at Ayr (1m; Park Lane Penny was second) 11 days ago; claims. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |

Hasn't fully sustained a good start to the campaign but proved resurgent on AW debut last time; has possibilities on classified debut, provided he builds on that effort; C&D winner. |

4th 14 (5) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |

|
6th 2 (11) |
26th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
22-race maiden but he has shown winning potential, including when second in a 0-50 classified event at Leicester (6f, good to firm; blinkered first time) on his recent stable debut; draw could have been kinder. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-21; latest of his three seconds was in February in first-time cheekpieces; slipped leaving the stalls on latest start; has since left Joey Ramsden; being visored first time didn't spark anything on penultimate outing but now it's the turn of blinkers and he has one of the better chances on ratings. |

Regressive maiden for two previous yards who ran poorly for his current trainer a few months ago on his return from almost a year off; since been gelded and doesn't make obvious appeal. |

11th 10 (2) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Off for 11 months since a good second in 1m2f handicap here on his final run for Alan Brown; has fitness to prove for his new handler. |

6 (8) |
24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Now 0-11 but has run okay now and again, notably when placed at Musselburgh last August (1m, good); latest run needs forgiving but this is such a bad race that he can't be ruled out. |
13/2 |
