16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Landed a pair of 1m2f handicaps at Pontefract in June; not disgraced both runs since, coming in a close sixth of nine at Newcastle (1m2f) 13 days ago; this C&D winner is not out of things in a refitted tongue-strap. |

Took advantage of a reduced mark when bagging his first two starts of the term (Pontefract; 1m2f, good) but couldn't complete the hat-trick when last of three at Newmarket four weeks ago; 0-6 on the AW. |

10st 0lb |
Won at Ripon (1m2f, good) in June and, bar a blip here last month, he's continued in good form; returned to winning ways at Ripon (1m2f, soft) 11 days ago and he could play another leading role. |

Dug in to repel Qitaal over C&D (good; from 5lb lower) in June and lost out narrowly to stablemate Poet's Dawn back here the following month; met with trouble at Musselburgh (1m1f, selling handicap) latest; Rhys Elliott takes off 3lb. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in April and he's run plenty of good races since including a close second behind an improver at Thirsk (1m, good) three weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher and he has won at this track in the past; respected. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 (3) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Raced mainly on stiff/galloping tracks; largely consistent winning off current mark at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) in April; in the mix, provided he's as effective back on a sharper course. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Resumed winning ways at Beverley (8.5f) in April and has continued in good form, runner-up in 1m Redcar handicap 13 days ago; winner has gone in since so a bold showing is on the cards off an unchanged mark. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Ended long losing run at Brighton last month for Ruby Criscuolo; that came over 1m4f in first-time cheekpieces (back to a visor today) and he's strugged twice since; No Knee Never may be his yard's best chance. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Cosy winner of 1m4f amateur riders' race at Brighton last month; awkward start and just modest late gains on Lingfield AW since; has run respectably over this C&D but 0-18 on AW; hood returns in place of cheekpieces. |
8/1 |
|
8th 8 (5) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Responded well to second-time cheekpieces under Ruby Criscuolo at Brighton (1m4f) nine days ago, ending a long losing spell; placed over C&D the time before; in the mix, even with 4lb penalty. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
All wins on turf, mostly off lower marks than today; yard in good form and this is more realistic than at Newmarket last time but today's trip is a bare minimum round here. |
7/1 |
|
11th 14 (3) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
In good form under regular partner Charli Parker this summer, winning twice (1m2f/11.6f); slightly out of the handicap here, though, and the drop back in trip may not be ideal; cheekpieces are refitted. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Admirably consistent this year (form figures 5321221); run down late over 1m4f here three starts back, but resumed winning ways with a gritty effort at Haydock (11.5f; soft) last week; carries a 5lb penalty as he bids for a sixth win under Charli Parker; first run over 1m6f. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Several creditable efforts this season, and she had an excuse when stepped back up to 1m4f here (did too much too soon) last time; has possibilities if she can bounce back but she's not easy to predict and all of her three wins have come on turf; cheekpieces reapplied. |
25/1 |

6th 7 (4) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Wins have come on turf in the summer and her record on Tapeta would be mixed at best; generally been running consistently of late but over shorter and this is a different test upped from 1m1f. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Record of 3-33 on turf; good third at Doncaster in July (1m, good to firm) but well beaten last time (1m2f, good to firm); lacks consistency. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Gained a second success of 2026 (first over C&D) in 1m Hamiton handicap in August; well below par when sixth of nine in 1m Carlisle handicap last time, though; more is required. |
10/1 |

6th 6 (10) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
2-5 in handicaps this season, coming from off the pace to win at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in April and adding an 8.3f success at Hamilton 18 days ago; 3lb higher today and doesn't have the benefit of Conor Whiteley's claim but he is still low mileage and could progress further. |
11/2 |

1st 9 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Low-mileage 3yo whose form since handicapping features a reappearance win at Redcar (1m) in April and keeping-on second at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) in June; beaten by more than lack of stamina over 1m2f at Pontefract since, though. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
11st 1lb |
Seven-time winner whose last two wins came in similar events at Redcar and Thirsk (also 1m, good) last summer; well below his best this term, so will need to turn the ship around, but he is 2-4 here and was third on the other two occasions. |
12/1 |

7th 1 (10) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Unproven on ground softer than good; far from solid on his efforts this term; however, won this race (narrowly) off 1lb higher 12 months ago and has clear possibilities if back in similar form. |
10/1 |
|
8th 1 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Won at Redcar and Thirsk for today's rider last season (both over 1m on good ground), but hasn't shown the same level of form in two runs this term; conditions suit and back on last winning mark. |
