9st 4lb |
Beat the same horse in bagging two Class 5s at Pontefract (both by a length) but he trailed home last there four weeks ago in a Class 3; might be high in the weights now. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |

Right back to his best of late, landing back-to-back C&D handicaps; this is tougher under a 5lb penalty but he can't be dismissed in his hat-trick attempt. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Winning for the fourth time when scoring at Beverley in June, and he was narrowly beaten in a blanket finish there on Monday; not ruled out. |
18/1 |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Struggled in Class 4 event last time; in good form in Class 5 otherwise of late, including C&D success in June; drops back to Class 6 but still needs to prove he can win off marks higher than the 50s. |
13/2 |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Successful at Beverley (5f, good) last month and ever better efforts when runner-up twice at Pontefract (both 5f, good) since; dual C&D winner last year so no reason why his run of good form won't continue. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Started his campaign with two wins in April and there have been plenty of solid runs since; should remain competitive but minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won this last year and kicked off this campaign with two wins in a row, the second of them over C&D; he's run well in defeat over C&D on his last two starts and there's every chance he'll again be bang there. |
11/2 |

3rd 2 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Dual C&D winner and again ran well when dead-heating for second with Dream Deal behind Hover On The Wind here eight days ago; likely to be bang there again. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won a C&D handicap off this mark last May; close third at Ripon three weeks ago but that was a lowly 0-55 handicap; more required in this field. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
27th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Recorded a quickfire double at Redcar and Catterick in May last year; underwent her second bout of wind surgery prior to returning this summer with below-par efforts at Thirsk and Pontefract, but back on her last winning mark so cannot dismiss. |
7/2 |
|
4th 10 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won her first two starts for the yard in May last year, but her form since then has been uneven; well held on last month's Thirsk return (5f, good; first start since a second wind operation) and she needs to improve on that. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Far from consistent this season but got up in the final strides over C&D (good to firm; off 1lb higher) in May; possibilities provided he's back in similar form and the race again pans out favourably. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Back off the same mark as when winning narrowly at Beverley (5f, good) in May, but he hasn't proved very consistent so far this year so not quite sure what to expect. |
16/1 |
|
9th 2 (3) |
16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Resumed winning ways at Beverley (5f) in May but failed to beat a rival in ten-runner handicap at Carlisle (5f) 18 days ago; this course scorer has a bit to prove now. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has won twice over 5f but has been below her best this year; has dropped to a career-low mark but doesn't look ready to take advantage. |
8/1 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Reponded well to the fitting of blinkers when winning at Redcar (5f, good) last October, but not matched that form since; also has something to prove over this stiffer 5f. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Redcar last October (5f, good) off 2lb lower when blinkered for the first time; not quite so good in two runs on the AW since; may need the run on first outing since March. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Ran well when a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month, but didn't back it up at Pontefract (5f, good; first-time hood) a fortnight ago; opposable given his wide draw and a losing run of 22. |
10/1 |
|
7th 9 (7) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Losing run up to 21, but he ran well to finish a close fourth of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) last month; a few winners have come out of that race and a hood is given a go, but the drop to 5f may not be ideal even on a stiff track like this. |
7/1 |
|
4th 8 (12) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Very useful juvenile/3yo for Roger Varian but his last win was in February 2024 and he's not made an impact in seven runs this year; mark continues to fall but losing run is up to 20 and others are preferred. |
14/1 |
