24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Usually a front-runner; doesn't have the best of strike-rates (2-22) but three good runs in blinkers at Ayr (1m; all on good to firm; has form on good to soft) in June and he stays this trip; a possible. |
5/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Prominent racer; galvanised by first-time blinkers when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) last month and although he has been expensive to follow since, he has still performed with great credit; the headgear was left off at Ayr last week but returns today; big run expected. |
9/2 |

2nd 2 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Handles all surfaces; many good runs on turf over the last year, making all in first-time blinkers here (1m, good to firm) in July and two solid efforts since; headgear left off now tackling 7f for the first time since 2yo days in Ireland but has another good run in him. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Ended a losing sequence at Ayr (1m) in May and largely in good nick since, sixth of ten in 1m handicap at Hamilton two weeks ago; no forlorn hope eased 1lb. |
10/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Course winner who added to his tally at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in May; good runner-up efforts there in recent weeks and has to enter calculations. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Beat Donna Nook over C&D in May when rated 1lb higher; put a couple of lesser efforts behind him when chasing home Runninsonofagun here last week; 7lb better off for 2l defeat so has a handicapping chance; new visor replaces cheekpieces; others still more appealing. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran (5-81) stablemate of Zebra Star; respectable third over 1m here (good to firm) in July, but could make only minimal inroads over C&D (fifth; 22-1) latest; this is a slightly easier task. |
18/1 |

5th 12 (13) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Now 1lb lower than for his Musselburgh win (1m, good) last September but he hasn't posed a serious threat this season and was well held over C&D last Monday; needs to raise his game. |
16/1 |
|
6th 9 (7) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Veteran with plenty of course form to his name; third of nine over 1m here last week (winner Runninsonofagun runs in the 4.00); one of three runners for the stable. |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has dropped to Class 6 the last twice, showing signs of a revival at Ayr then never figuring at Catterick; current mark reflects a broad decline in his form this year. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (5) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Last turf win was at Redcar in September 2024 (6f, good to firm; blinkers on for the first time); ran one of his best races this season when fourth over 1m at Ayr last week (1m, good to firm; visor on); same headgear; each-way chance. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual Ripon winner last summer who's regressed and run below market expectations on last two starts; this is easier off a career-low mark (9lb lower than when last successful) but he could have done without the recent rain. |
7/1 |
|
6th 4 (5) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins at Ripon over 1m last year (good/good to firm); respectable fourth of nine at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) in May but he's yet to build on that in four starts since; others look stronger. |
7/2 |
|
5th 5 (2) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Two wins over 1m at Ripon last season (good/good to firm); a bit disappointing this term (4l fourth of seven at Pontefract latest) but on a good mark now. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Mainly campaigned over shorter but does stay this far; 399 days off before this season; never-never fourth of seven at Musselburgh (7f) last night was probably his most positive display since; back on his last winning mark. |
5/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not fired in two runs back from a 399-day absence; has won at this track and he is on a handy mark so not impossible he'll bounce back, for all the trip is on the sharp side. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten only by a short head and a nose when third in similar C&D race to this last month and also ran well when second at Newcastle (1m, AW) ten days ago, but his 0-29 strike-rate is not easily overlooked. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (8) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Third of 13 in a similar contest over C&D last month and only just lost out when third of ten at Ayr (1m, good) on his penultimate outing; record of 0-28 is hard to ignore, though. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Ex-Irish; 0-13 overall and, after nearly a year off, she's been well held in three starts for this yard, including a couple of heavy defeats; has received wind surgery. |
20/1 |
|
11th 5 (7) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ex-Irish; 0-12 overall and, after nearly a year off, well beaten on both starts for new stable (22-1 and 28-1); the positives are that she's down the weights and steps back up from 1m1f/1m for this AW debut. |
25/1 |
|
8th 2 (6) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Ex-Irish; 0-11; well beaten on stable debut at Carlisle nine days ago (1m1f, good) after nearly a year off but better can be expected today. |

Sole success came back in 2023 but he got back on track with second of six in 1m2f handicap at Doncaster three weeks ago; needs to reproduce it now. |
7/1 |

2nd 5 (5) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Only 1-27, the win when with Ralph Beckett; had been badly out of form this season but ran better in a new tongue-tie over 1m here last time when close up behind Mariner; possibilities if as good again as he stays this far. |
8/1 |
|
6th 7 (4) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Only win in 26 runs was a 1m nursery at York in October 2023 for Ralph Beckett; badly out of form this season and cheekpieces made no difference last time; they are replaced by a first-time tongue-tie now. |
