4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Returned to form with easy win in small field at Salisbury (1m, good to firm) in July and showed it was no one-off when following up with something to spare at Haydock (1m, good); this 5yo is on a career-high mark but has never been better and is entitled to considerable respect; has won here. |

1st 7 (11) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Failed to make the frame on first four starts this season but revived with a 7l win in four-runner race at Salisbury (1m, good to firm); what that form is worth is open to question and he's back up 7lb, but at least the third has won since. |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |

Usually held up in rear; hasn't won since his 2yo days but has slipped to an attractive mark and could pop up when the cards drop right, which admittedly isn't guaranteed in this small-field scenario; less exposed at 1m than over shorter. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Three wins from his last four starts (soft-good to firm), the latest in an apprentice handicap against 18 rivals at York (1m) last Sunday; faces a higher calibre of opponent this afternoon but this progressive 4yo escapes a penalty for York and he did it nicely there; high on the list. |
7/1 |

1st 2 (10) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won at Hamilton (1m, good to firm) in July before good second at Haydock (1m, good), and returned to winning ways at Goodwood (1m, soft) last Sunday; this progressive 4yo is respected under a 5lb penalty. |
4/1 |

1st 11 (7) |

20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Returned to form when going very close at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month and again ran well when third of 13 at Haydock (1m, good) 12 days ago; it's possible he's better over 7f but he might not be far away; has won on good to soft, unraced on softer. |

3rd 3 (7) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |

Back to form when beaten a nose at Doncaster three weeks ago; 3lb lower than last winning mark and seems to retain all his ability, so a serious contender if staying the trip (all wins at 6f/7f). |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced 3yo; faded after being pestered for the lead in German Group 2 in May, but he'd previously posted a personal best when second to the high-class Talk Of New York in conditions race at Newmarket (7f, good) on reappearance; bred to stay at least 1m; makes handicap debut and might have been let in lightly. |

Knuckled down well to justify favouritism here on reappearance but hasn't made the expected further progress; seems to stay 1m but all three successes remain at 7f; concedes weight all round; others preferred. |
13/2 |

6th 4 (13) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Not seen to best effect when mid-division in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time out but prior to that he kept on well to make a winning reappearance at Haydock (7f, good to firm) and this very lightly raced 4yo retains potential, especially back up to 1m. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |

Generally disappointing since winning off 4lb higher on AW in February but was denied a clear run when midfield in competitive Haydock handicap (1m, good) three weeks ago and enters calculations in this lower grade. |
7/1 |
|
6th 14 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Unplaced last five starts, not really finishing his races; carries obvious risks but his three turf wins came over 1m on good to firm ground and he now returns after a wind operation; he's well handicapped if the surgery has had a positive effect. |
16/1 |
|
8th 2 (5) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Scored off current mark on reappearance (1m2f, AW; in February) but hasn't been in the same form since, latterly back on turf, disappointing favourite returned to 1m most recently. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Acts on any ground; has registered a couple of Class 4 wins this term, including at Beverley (8.5f, heavy) latest start; back up in class but two attempts at this contest comprise a win (off 2lb higher) in 2024 and respectable fifth last year. |
8/1 |

1st 12 (8) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Ended an 18-race losing run when beating three rivals at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in July and ran well when second of eight at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; all his best form has come on good/good to firm ground, though. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 7 (8) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Won four-runner handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) last month and close fourth of 15 at York (1m, good to firm) next time; caught wide early and failed to settle when mid-division in competitive handicap at Haydock (1m, good) last Saturday so that run can be forgiven; not discounted. |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
His mark has fallen but he was well beaten last September on his final runs for Hugo Palmer and hasn't shown enough on his two starts for a new yard this year to suggest he's the one to be on today. |
66/1 |
|
8th 11 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |

Well treated on the pick of his form for Hugo Palmer last year but was 66-1 and showed little on reappearance/stable debut; only 2lb lower and probably best watched. |
100/1 |
|
17th 16 (17) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

None too consistent for Hugo Palmer last year but he is well treated on his best form; sold for 24,000gns last October; likely best watched back at 7f after 287 days off. |

Not disgraced in major 7f handicap at Ascot on penultimate start but is still seeking a first win above Class 3 and his ceiling is well established; moved out of David O'Meara's yard since last run. |

9st 11lb |
C&D winner who struck at Thirsk (1m, good) last month; now 1lb below that winning mark but that's because three lesser runs have followed; no surprise were he to pop up but his good days are becoming harder to predict. |
25/1 |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Course winner who struck at Thirsk (1m, good) last month and is just 1lb higher today; however, this 7yo has had a patchy profile this season and has finished unplaced on his last two starts. |

Hard to predict; followed six duck eggs with a last-gasp win at Thirsk (1m, good) two weeks ago, only to run poorly again at Haydock last week; just 2lb higher than for the win but can't be relied on. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Both his wins have come on the AW but he wasn't disgraced when eighth of 17 on turf at York (7f, good; 22-1) four weeks ago; stepping back up to 1m should be a help; each-way possibilities. |
12/1 |

8th 12 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Both his wins have come on AW but he handles turf, albeit best grass runs have come on good going; two disappointing efforts since his Southwell win in April and others are more convincing. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Has gained both wins on AW, including on reappearance; has bits of fairly useful form on turf but produced one of his lesser efforts last time, taking record in this sphere to 0-9; others preferred. |
