4th 1 (7) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual turf winner in 2024 (6f/7.5f); has also won twice on the AW, most recently last December (7f), but rather out of form since and others are stronger. |
10/1 |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Ended 2025 with a 7f AW win at Newcastle; not in much form since returning from a three-month break and too much to prove for now. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
7lb below his last winning mark but that was back in October 2024; retains ability and he has been placed in all three C&D runs; should give his running. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual C&D winner on soft ground, the latest off a 6lb higher mark in October 2024; plenty of sound runs since (placed over C&D on four occasions); each-way chance. |

1st 5 (7) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Gained all four wins over sprint trips, the latest in September 2024; ran quite well over 7f at Catterick (good) in May, though, and nearly exploited this career-low mark at Doncaster (6f, good to firm; second run in cheekpieces) a week ago; due to go back up 3lb; must be considered. |
11/4 |

2nd 3 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Progressive as a 3yo (C&D winner) but regressed last year and has continued to slide this season; hit a bit of traffic when not beaten far in first-time cheekpieces (retained) latest but others look to have stronger claims. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Consistent on AW this year and was nudged up only 2lb for his win in refitted cheekpieces at Wolverhampton (7f) a fortnight ago; also suited by turf; respected. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (8) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Things didn't pan out for him when back over 6f here in April (first-time visor; cheekpieces now refitted) but he has a good C&D record, winning once and close up in all three handicaps; has a good run in him. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Losing run is mounting up but he shaped well from the front over C&D (good) eight days ago, eventually tying up having kicked clear too soon in hindsight, beaten only 2l; big chance off same mark with Ethan Tindall taking off a bonus 5lb, provided his energy is used better. |
3/1 |
|
4th 8 (2) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ran poorly last time, failing to back up reappearance effort and continuing his long losing spell; otherwise well capable of taking a serious hand off current mark, provided he rebounds. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Some late headway when fifth at Doncaster (6f; 16-1) on penultimate start, and a similar story over the sharp 7f at Musselburgh subsequently; mark continues to ease and best run for previous trainer was on AW at Lingfield; no forlorn hope. |
12/1 |

6th 4 (10) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Six-race maiden; bettered inauspicious seasonal/stable debut when fifth of eight at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) last month and, with this return to 7f likely to suit, could plausibly take another step forward here. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D scorer; made an encouraging return with sixth at Catterick (7f) in May but beat one in 7f Redcar handicap since; needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |
|
10th 4 (4) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has won three of his 34 races on turf, the latest off this mark at Musselburgh last August (7f, good); should come on for his reappearance run and a possible. |
9/1 |
Betting Forcast
9/1 Gressington, 4/1 Vince Le Prince, 11/4 Kings Merchant, 11/2 Good Karma, 9/2 Ideal Guest, 11/4 Vega Storm, 14/1 Wise Crack, 16/1 Patontheback
Verdict
Having been in good form last month, IDEAL GUEST (nap) looks to have another sound chance from his low draw. The unexposed Vega Storm, whose two best runs have been here, and the in-form Kings Merchant look his main dangers.[Colin Russell].
