13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Rampant since joining Rod Millman and she was 7lb well in when completing a July hat-trick at Newbury (13.5f, good to firm) four weeks ago; runs off her revised rating this time but this drop back in trip should be no bother and she needs to be taken very seriously. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Modest form under both codes for David Pipe; she has proved a different proposition since joining Rod Millman, running away with a small-field Class 5 at Chepstow (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago and making light of her penalty at York (1m4f, good to firm) last week; didn't look straightforward under pressure there but she was well on top at the finish and Oisin Murphy replaces an apprentice today; 7lb ahead of her mark and she's a major player. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
She remains 5lb higher than for her last win last August but that's because she's been admirably consistent in defeat this year; runner-up at York (1m4f, good to firm) last Friday and she can be bang there. |
11/8 |

2nd 2 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Largely progressive sort in 2025 (when a two-time 1m2f winner) and she's continued on the up stepped up to 1m4f this season, finishing runner-up twice; the Ed Bethell team is in good form, so she should go well back from a seven-week break. |

Largely progressive sort in 2025 (when a two-time 1m2f winner) and she's continued on the up stepped up to 1m4f this season, not enjoying the smoothest of passages when fourth of 15 at Chester 13 days ago; a player off an unchanged mark. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Form for new yard comprises a staying-on third at York (1m4f; first Flat start since 2024) and career-best success, with visor applied, in notable 2m handicap hurdle at Market Rasen; may have more to offer in the retained headgear; respected. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Useful Flat performer and also 2-15 as a hurdler (regularly placed); left Harry Fry for £15,000 and was a 6l third over 1m4f at York on last week's stable debut (no headgear); first-time visored now (effective in tongue-tie/cheekpieces). |

Quite useful on the Flat at the start of his career; similar standard over hurdles for Harry Fry in more recent times; sold for £15,000 in July and joined a stable with excels with new recruits. |

10st 2lb |
Perhaps best over further but he was only nabbed late on over C&D last week and, although 1lb higher, Toby Moore rides him for the first time claiming 7lb; can be inconsistent but he's run three excellent races in defeat around here; solid chance. |

2nd 5 (1) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |

Two 1m4f wins for Ben Brookhouse last year; hasn't seriously threatened back on the Flat for current yard (best effort was here in May) and ideally wants further. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |

Two 1m4f wins for Ben Brookhouse last year, including this race on good to firm; hasn't seriously threatened back on the Flat for current yard and it remains to be seen whether a return to York sparks a full-scale revival. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

All five AW wins have been at this track, four of which were over this trip; recorded his first turf success at Doncaster in June and has run well since, which augurs well for this return to AW. |
5/1 |

2nd 1 (5) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Off the mark on turf when beating five rivals at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) last month but he was beaten 8l when fifth of ten off this mark at York (1m4f, good to firm) 19 days ago; now drops back in trip. |
4/1 |

5th 7 (4) |

Five-time AW winner who made it sixteenth time lucky on turf when seeing off five rivals over 1m4f at Doncaster (good to soft) under Conor Whiteley 26 days ago; 3lb higher in a deeper race now but the Michael Herrington stable continues in good form. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
On a long losing run and never a threat here two weeks ago, but he'd previously been beaten just a nose in the Queen Mother's Cup over C&D in June; none too reliable but a danger to all if he's on a going day. |
7/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Slow starter whose losing run goes back 17 races to March 2025; however, he went down by only a nose over C&D (good) last month and was caught too far back in a Class 2 at Ayr since; bold show likely with his sights lowered. |
6/1 |

9th 11 (11) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Slow starter whose losing run goes back 16 races to March 2025; however, he's been second on three of his last four starts, most recently at York (1m4f, good) last Saturday; slow ground is probably fine; each-way chance. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Won his first two starts when trained by Karl Burke; encouraging stable debut at Chester (1m2f, good to soft) in June and was best of the rest behind a handicap blot at Carlisle next time; however, he needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at York (1m4f, good to firm) last month. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |

Promising return from absence when fourth at Chester (10.5f, good to soft) for new yard last month and he was best of the rest behind a handicap blot in the Cumberland Plate at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) since; enters calculations. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (3) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
2-2 as a juvenile but he didn't progress at three (quite highly tried) and left Karl Burke for 25,000gns that October; missed last year but there was plenty of encouragement when fourth at Chester (10.5f, good to soft) 11 days ago; fairly quick second run back from a long absence sounds a note of caution but his yard's in fine form; respected. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Progressed from a low base last July/September, winning at up to 2m; quiet on her first two starts this summer following wind surgery, but she was back in the groove when second of 13 at York (extended 2m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) three weeks ago; tackles a classier event this time but can't be dismissed. |
6/1 |

2nd 14 (12) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Arrives with something to prove having been well beaten here on her two starts this summer (1m2f/1m4f); however, she was progressive last July/September, winning at up to 2m, and she won over hurdles in March; possibilities if she's back on song in a first-time tongue-tie; watch the betting. |
