4th 1 (4) |
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. |

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. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
The winner of five AW handicaps (5f-6f) since September for her new stable; 6lb higher than for the latest of them and others appeal as being better treated. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Had a tremendous spell for new yard between September and January, winning five at 6f (two here) or 5f; her handicap mark has taken a battering but a recent second at Southwell suggests she's not weighted out of it; Ryan Kavanagh 2-2 on her and she can be thereabouts again. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Multiple winner, including this race on good to firm off 7lb higher in 2024 (sixth last year); quiet in three runs this season but worth a look in the betting given his previous in this contest. |

17th 14 (12) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Multiple winner, including here; quiet this season but it was the same last campaign before he won on his third outing; handy mark. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Resumed winning ways at Wolverhampton (5f) in February but below form since, too free when fourth of six there (5f) following month; needs to bounce back returned to turf. |
16/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
He has two impressive C&D wins on his record this winter; not at his best on his last two starts but he's not an easy horse to pass if breaking on terms; needs another personal best but it is not out of the question. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made winning return under Lewis Chalkley at Nottingham (5f, good) in April and has remained in form, better than the bare result suggests when sixth of seven at Musselburgh (very slowly away) 11 days ago; in the mix. |
7/1 |
|
6th 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Made winning seasonal debut under Lewis Chalkley at Nottingham (5f, good) in April and ran at least as well when close third at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last month; up in grade today but evidently in good nick. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner who was in good form last autumn; the booking of the promising Jake Dickson catches the eye, but he's been off for over seven months and doesn't have a great record when fresh. |
12/1 |
|
4th 9 (5) |
24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Ended a 15-race losing run when scoring by a head over C&D last month; only midfield under his penalty at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) next time, but each-way claims back here. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
14-66 and somewhat of a Hamilton Park specialist; creditable third to Vince L'Amour (Betweenthesticks second) over C&D on penultimate start but, that aside, she hasn't been overly competitive; easing mark (8lb below her last winning one) offers some hope. |
14/1 |
|
9th 5 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Best on good/firmer; 14-time winner who showed clear signs of a return to form at Ripon last time, finishing third; enters calculations off 6lb below last winning mark. |
