29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Bang-in-form 4yo who comes here after emphatic wins under Seamus Cronin at Ascot and Pontefract (both 1m, good to firm) this month; competes off career-high mark but must be considered in current mood. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Gained a deserved first win since 2024 in 1m apprentices' handicap at Ascot a week ago, when well on top at the finish; escapes a penalty and is able to race off 2lb lower than last time, so he's very hard to side against. |

9st 3lb |
Only raced four times for Charles Hills but he won a 7f novice on his debut and finished second in both handicaps in 2024; the form of the Newbury second worked out extremely well and this mark ought to be in range; a 560-day absence, during which time he has changed hands (30,000gns last July) and been gelded, is the obvious concern but he returns for a stable in red-hot form; hooded first time; betting informative. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Ran really well when runner-up in two big-field handicaps at York (7f/1m, good) in June; not at the same level when mid-division there (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained) but can be in the shake-up if swiftly rediscovering his previous form. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Yet to win for new connections but he has run stormers here (7f/1m, both good ground) on his last two starts, bumping into a handicap blot on the first occasion and going down by just a neck two weeks ago; slow starts are a problem though and he will need things to go his way; cheekpieces now join the tongue tie. |

Not quite at best this season but exploited some help from the handicapper when winning narrowly at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last month and ought to remain competitive after going back up 4lb. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 7f/1m winner in 2025, including over this C&D; mainly below his best this season but he didn't run too badly when sixth at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 12 days ago; on a handy mark and now drops in grade. |

9st 4lb |
Made all on his final start for Ross Burdon at Yarmouth (11.5f, soft) in June, after which he changed hands for 19,000gns; rain would be a bonus but he did trail home last at Hamilton only last week (1m5f) and has a good bit to prove at 1m. |

Made all on his final start for Ross Burdon at Yarmouth (11.5f, soft) in June, since when he changed hands for 19,000gns; 4lb rise fair enough, but he could do with some rain; one of two runners for yard that took this in 2024. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual AW winner (7f/6f) who kept on for respectable third of six here (7f, good to firm) this month; needs to find something extra today but his pedigree and running style suggest he's well worth a go over 1m. |
4/1 |

3rd 4 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won first two starts (both AW; trained by Joseph O'Brien on debut) but his form has levelled off; latest fourth over 7.5f at Chester (good to soft) came in a useful 3yo handicap but he'll need to pull out a bit more to get his head back in front. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Progressive in blinkers before switched to a visor and winning narrowly at Epsom (1m127yds); he did some hanging but that was probably due to the track; a 6lb rise seems hefty enough but he's trending in the right direction. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who was evidently well suited by the step up in trip when winning readily at Bath (1m, good) last month; found one too good when odds-on to follow up there (firm) last week but was clear of the others and remains of strong interest; swaps blinkers for first-time visor. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |

Ten-race maiden who has been out of sorts in his three runs this season; continues to drop down the weights but he needs a big turnaround back at this trip; visor added. |

30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Second in a maiden here last September; best form in valuable sales races (also 7f) on next two outings but nowhere near repeating it in his two starts this term; hampered early in a York handicap last time (7f; 22-1) and this is a major rethink on his trip, but none too persuasive. |

Prolific winning veteran, mostly over 1m on a sound surface; most recent success came in this race last year, when 8lb higher; supported when a close second at Ripon latest start; respected. |

2nd 6 (3) |
18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
11yo who needs to produce more than he's managed on his last three starts but he's 3lb lower than when a close third at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in May and has won at Ripon seven times; went close here in August 2024 when he last wore these blinkers (which replace cheekpieces); not discounted. |

Won for Ian Williams at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last July and runner-up three times subsequently; sold for 20,000gns last October and absent since (wind op in interim); may be best watched on stable debut. |
