20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won over C&D (good) in April and he got back on the scoresheet when rallying well for a clearcut success at Catterick (5f, good to soft) last week; 5lb higher here but this return to fast ground is no problem and he's respected back up in trip. |
5/2 |

1st 6 (6) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Effective at 5f/6f on turf and AW; easy winner at Nottingham in April (6f, good) for which he went back up 8lb; not so good on AW next time but has a chance back on turf. |

6th 1 (5) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Took advantage of a sliding mark when easily winning an ordinary Nottingham handicap from the front five weeks ago; drawn to attack again and fine on Tapeta but an 8lb rise will test him into a deeper race. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable 8yo who recorded his 11th win when surging clear on his reappearance at Catterick (6f, good to firm) last month; has a 10lb rise to deal with but he still looks on a workable mark and his last four wins have come under Tom Kiely-Marshall; key player. |
9/4 |
|
1st 6 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Multiple sprint winner who runs here for the first time; 3lb higher than when last winning at Leicester (6f, good to soft) last September; not badly treated on that form but has yet to produce one of his better efforts following a break. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Below best at Leicester recently; had won two of his three 6f starts previously but he hasn't run on the AW for over a year and has been better on Polytrack than Tapeta in the past. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made it 4-8 on turf when scoring at Haydock (6f, good) last July but she's lost her way in three subsequent runs; had an excuse on soft ground on her Lingfield reappearance two weeks ago but this is competitive and she needs a big turnaround. |
12/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Unraced on ground softer than good; absent since an excusable effort (hampered start, poorly positioned) last August; 4-9 on turf and 1-1 over C&D; one to consider. |
7/1 |
|
9th 2 (6) |
26th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Progressive last year for Rae Guest (C&D winner) and won at Haydock (6f, good) last month on third start for this yard, for which she deserves extra credit having had to switch around runners; soundly beaten on AW since but has never shone on that surface; she's one to consider now back on turf. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Four-time sprint winner who acts on any ground; his last success was 13 months ago but he had a near-miss behind a course specialist at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) last week; only 1lb higher here and he should make another bold bid. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Scored twice (5f/6f) last May and took a step forward with third of seven in 6f Catterick handicap 20 days ago; not out of things from an easing mark. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
4-25; won from 3lb higher at York (6f, good) last May, and also went close (runner-up) back there in July; pestered for the lead, weakening late, when fourth on seasonal reappearance at Wetherby (5.5f; 15-8 favourite; form franked); now 2lb lower and with Jack Nicholls back aboard; chance. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Reappeared with a good second at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) last month but he's not easy to predict and was a well-held fifth at Ripon last time; that took his record to 1-16 and others are more convincing. |
9/1 |
|
5th 8 (9) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Ex William Haggas; no win since his juvenile days, but has twice ran well over this C&D, including when fourth (from 4lb higher) last August; no match for stablemate Novello Lad at Doncaster (6f, good to soft; 25-1) recently but that comeback run ought to have him spot on for this. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 12 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Regressed for William Haggas before sold last summer; the handicapper is easing off so he should be easy enough to place in due course but he's done a lot of his racing over 7f and now returns from an absence; Novello Lad looks his trainer's best shout. |
