12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Infrequent winner who is usually held up (can start slowly) and he needs everything to drop right; capable off this mark but if missing the kick from stall 1 he could be behind the black ball. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Won in fields of a similar size to today's at York (7f, good) last July and Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in June; outside of those wins his form figures since last June read 000089055 and he's a type who needs everything to drop right, but it's possible that will happen off an expected good pace today. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

C&D winner; runner-up on this card 12 months ago; having a solid campaign but surprising if he was up to winning. |
33/1 |
|
9th 10 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
8yo who was knocking on the door prior to making all in fine style at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 12 days ago; had just three rivals to beat last time and he's 4lb higher in a tougher race today, but is clearly in good heart and is a two-time winner at Thirsk; could go well. |

Back in form with three placed efforts this summer; the latest one took his C&D record to 1113; this front-running 8yo remains just 1lb above last winning mark; solid chance. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Often front-runs; without a success since landing a Group 3 as a 2yo; however, he has posted some good placed efforts and ran well when sixth of 18 at York (7f, good to firm) in July; has been dropped another pound and has to be considered. |
5/1 |
|
6th 14 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
He's on a long losing run and can be inconsistent, but this front-runner was third of 22 over C&D (good) in May and wasn't beaten far when seventh of 20 over C&D (good) last time; each-way possibilities from low draw. |
16/1 |

7th 17 (13) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Smart earlier in career; yet to win for this yard but gave it a good shot from the front when third over C&D (good) at the Dante meeting and bounced back from a lesser effort over 6f here when third (Inspired fourth) of 14 at Wetherby (good to firm; made running again) last week; each-way claims again. |

Has form figures of 212 since racing over 1m on turf, the success at Hamilton; ran well at Haydock (good) most recently and may show further progress kept to this trip; respected. |

|
2nd 12 (8) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |

Consistent form since being gelded, gaining a deserved success in five-runner race at Hamilton (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago; just 2lb higher and should go well again. |

1st 3 (3) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |

Scored at Newcastle (1m) in December and has proved reliable without adding to his tally this season, a clear second of seven to Jannas Journey in 1m Carlisle handicap 12 days ago; not taken lightly despite a 2lb weights rise. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Ended 2025 with a 7f win at Chelmsford and he has run well in competitive handicaps on turf this summer, most recently finishing third of 18 at York (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; no obvious reason why he wouldn't make another bold bid. |
11/2 |

3rd 6 (15) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Sixth of 22 over C&D (good) in May on reappearance and further respectable efforts when fifth of 14 on his next two starts (7f, good to firm); however, he needs something extra to return to winning ways today. |
20/1 |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Reappeared with a 6f win here in April but she's not come close to that form since and was tailed off at Newmarket last month; now only 1lb higher than for her last success but she needs a big turnaround. |
25/1 |
|
6th 4 (7) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Turf wins at 7f and latest success was over 6f on AW in April; has rarely tackled 1m and she was highly tried over this trip in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot in June but she did look to stay an extended 1m at Nottingham in 2025 for previous yard; has possibilities. |
10/1 |
|
18th 24 (4) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
All three wins over shorter, the latest over 6f at Kempton (AW) in April; unable to reproduce that form in three 7f turf outings since; stays 1m but it's hard to be positive about her chance from 3lb out of the weights. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins for Robert Eddery came over a stiff, undulating 7f, so has that in her favour; lacked consistency for new yard, below par in first-time cheekpieces latest (headgear now off, tongue-tie on), but could easily bounce back. |

Both AW wins at Newcastle (1m and 7f) but he lost out only narrowly over C&D in March; has had ups and downs since but he came from well back when fourth of ten to Gunfighter over C&D recently; place chance. |
10/1 |

4th 1 (7) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Went close over C&D in March and won at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) 13 days later; not at the same level on his three starts since, particularly on turf on last two outings, but the return to Tapeta could prompt a revival. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |

30th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Inconsistent maiden who has his quirks; can miss the start and pull hard, while he did some hanging when fourth of the five runners last time; not the percentage call. |

4th 3 (5) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Inconsistent maiden who has missed the start and/or pulled hard; no problem with 9.5f on Tapeta last time, when turning in his best effort since handicapping (made most), but history suggests he's no good thing to build on it. |
6/1 |

3rd 6 (7) |

Won a 1m selling handicap (good to firm) at Thirsk when with George Boughey; has gone close a couple of times for this yard, including here (1m, good) 12 months ago when 3lb higher; below par in both starts this season but not written off. |
