23rd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Off the mark on his second start for this yard when scoring at Doncaster (1m2f) in June and he followed up at Hamilton (1m4f, also good to firm) the following month; raced freely before finishing tailed off at Newmarket last time but that was too bad to be true; return to this trip should be no issue and he's a contender to bounce back. |

21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
0-7 in Ireland but he's been a big improver this season and made it 2-3 for George Scott when completing a double at Hamilton (1m4f, good to firm) last month; that was against two rivals but he won in decisive fashion and still looks feasibly treated off 5lb higher; strong contender in hat-trick bid. |

9st 4lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo who got off the mark at the ninth attempt at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago, prevailing by 3l on his second stable start; kept on for close third over 1m3f on his stable debut and there can be optimism that 1m4f will be within range; strong claims up 7lb for last time. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Nottingham and Newbury (both 1m2f on good) last August and she's been admirably consistent since, including with four runner-up efforts this season; still 3lb higher than for her last win but this step back up in trip is no problem and she's respected with Ryan Moore booked. |
5/1 |

4th 3 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
She remains 5lb higher than for her last win last August but that's because she's been admirably consistent in defeat this year, finishing second again at Hamilton (1m4f, good to firm; acts on soft) seven weeks ago; likely to give another good account. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Strike-rate of 4-18; winless this year but perhaps found good to firm ground too lively on her latest start and she had been running well before then; tactically versatile and she's on a perfectly fair mark. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Course winner (1m5f, good) who went very close at Ripon (1m4f, good) last month; she was last of five here (1m5f, good) last Saturday but was beaten just under 2l having led at a steady pace, and she's not ruled out. |
