2nd 4 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and ran another sound race when neck second at Carlisle last time (1m3f); fair efforts on previous tries at 2m; one to consider. |
3/1 |

2nd 3 (6) |
9th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Ex-Irish maiden who was quick to make her mark for Daragh Bourke, landing 1m5f classified event at Ayr before following up in 1m4f Musselburgh handicap later in June; posted another good effort under a penalty with fourth at Ayr (1m5f) last time; major player. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent gelding who went close over C&D in early June and came back to that sort of level when behind Patrick Street three days ago (8lb better off back into a handicap); often pulls hard and it will depend on his mood. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (7) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-25; keeping reasonable form over further until a low-key effort at Musselburgh (1m5f, good) last week; dropping back to 1m2f is helpful (was third in this last year) but others still make more appeal. |
16/1 |

7th 8 (10) |
31st Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Just one win (1m2f, AW) from his 24 starts but he arrives in good form, runner-up in three of his last four starts; should give his running once again. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three times a course winner for Jim Goldie, the latest (extended 1m4f) last August off a 9lb higher mark; solid efforts on her last three starts; big run expected. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 7 (4) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Third in 1m4f handicaps at Musselburgh on her last two starts, staying on nicely on both occasions; drop back in trip on faster ground isn't sure to suit. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins came over C&D; hit flat spot but rallied for third under these conditions last week; obvious claims of turning the tables on winner Gemini Man given she was beaten two necks and has a 4lb pull; 7lb claimer Kyle McHugh enlisted too. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Regressive maiden who again pulled hard when some way behind Patrick Street and Falaise Blanc at Ayr over the weekend; will need to settle much better coming back up from 1m2f. |
16/1 |
|
11th 8 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-race maiden; fourth (not far behind Falaise Blanc) at Musselburgh (12.5f; 33-1) in June, but weakened over C&D (raced keenly) subsequently; level of competition suitable, but others are easier to recommend. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
1-27 on Flat turf, the win coming on soft ground over 1m at Redcar in May 2024 (first-time hood); gave it a good go from the front when runner-up over this C&D last month but she failed to beat a rival home at Ayr (1m2f) two weeks ago; needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |

10th 11 (1) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ran well from out of the handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last week, poaching a big lead but reeled in close home; whether she can repeat that form in this bigger field remains to be seen. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 (1) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Winner under both codes in 2024; creditable second over 1m1f at Musselburgh in April but below that level since, including weakening when stepped back up to around 1m4f last time. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won twice in June (1m2f/1m4f) and put two poor performances behind him when clear second here (1m5f, good) a week ago; can cope with this drop back in trip and is still on a workable mark; ought to make his presence felt. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won minor events at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) and here (extended 1m4f, good) in June; reportedly bled from the nose in his hat-trick bid and then ran poorly at Newcastle last week; not easy to assess. |
9/2 |
|
9th 12 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Three wins from his first four Flat starts in 2026, including one over C&D; that record demands respect but he pulled up 25 days ago (bled from the nose) and needs to bounce back from that; 7lb claimer takes over. |
8/1 |
