9th 7 (5) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has been in good form this summer, with two wins here (1m) and one win at around 1m at Beverley, all from the front; creditable effort back over 7f at Redcar last time and may well be hard to catch. |
11/4 |
|
4th 8 (3) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A winner of three of his last five starts (all 1m), including when he made all in amateur riders' event at Thirsk 12 days ago; 2lb nudge makes life a little harder but he comes here in form and should cope with the drop to 7f. |
6/1 |

1st 5 (1) |

Has form figures of 2112 in last four turf attempts and gained one of the wins over C&D (good to firm); ran well at Ayr (good to soft) most recently; steadily progressive and commands respect. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in April and he's run plenty of good races since including a close second behind an improver at Thirsk (1m, good) three weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher and he has won at this track in the past; respected. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Raced mainly on stiff/galloping tracks; largely consistent winning off current mark at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) in April; in the mix, provided he's as effective back on a sharper course. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Resumed winning ways at Beverley (8.5f) in April and has continued in good form, runner-up in 1m Redcar handicap 13 days ago; winner has gone in since so a bold showing is on the cards off an unchanged mark. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
1m win here in August and she ran a sound race when third at Thirsk four days later; no issue with the drop back in trip and likely to be involved again. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 9 (11) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Consistent of late and justified favouritism at Musselburgh (1m, good; first two clear) on Monday, ending a three-year losing spell; incurs 5lb penalty but looks likely to remain competitive. |
9/2 |
|
1st 8 (1) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

Winless since 2yo days; competitive at this sort of level all summer but a couple of costly defeats here latterly (7f) and needs to find more. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Ran respectably on fast ground last time when bidding for a 7f Yarmouth double (maiden previously); may have more to offer at this level, especially when the ground is slow; gained his win on soft. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the eighth attempt when winning on soft ground over this C&D three weeks ago (third start since being gelded); back up 3lb and likely has quicker ground to handle today. |
5/1 |
|
1st 7 (3) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Seven-race maiden; shaped a bit better than the bare result, while seeming outstayed over 1m, at Haydock (good to soft) most recently; could go well off a reduced mark back down in trip. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
On a long losing sequence and current mark reflects a general decline in his form; not particularly solid on 2026 efforts and it's still over five years since his only turf win. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 (13) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
His last win was at Southwell in April 2024 but he travelled strongly for a long way before weakening there (7f) last month; record of 1-35 on turf but he's on a much lower mark back in this sphere and is well handicapped on his best form last season; one to keep an eye on with visor reapplied. |
20/1 |
|
9th 7 (11) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dry since a C&D win for the Quinn yard more than two years ago; now 10lb lower than when last seen on the AW (3-8 here) but has regressed on turf in the meantime and may just be on the downgrade. |

Respectable second at Hamilton last time but was almost 3l behind much younger rival Uncle Liam, who may again have the upper hand; losing run is mounting up. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |

Trip, track and ground are all fine; no threat at Thirsk last week but that was 1m and this trip is more suitable; each-way shout. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Well below best on all five appearances this year (7f-1m2f) but has edged his way down to a good mark and is suited by this C&D; worth keeping an eye on in the betting. |
10/1 |
|
6th 4 (2) |
23rd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
11st 1lb |
Seven-time winner whose last two wins came in similar events at Redcar and Thirsk (also 1m, good) last summer; well below his best this term, so will need to turn the ship around, but he is 2-4 here and was third on the other two occasions. |
12/1 |
|
7th 1 (10) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Unproven on ground softer than good; far from solid on his efforts this term; however, won this race (narrowly) off 1lb higher 12 months ago and has clear possibilities if back in similar form. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning nursery debut (7f, soft) for Ollie Pears back in August 2024; two low-key runs (1m) for new stable this summer; drops in trip with plenty to prove; tongue-tie back on today. |
25/1 |
|
8th 8 (2) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Returns to her ideal sphere but has a doubt over current form, having achieved little in AW event on stable/seasonal debut; 0-12 since winning on handicap debut two years ago. |
25/1 |
|
11th 2 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a nursery at Carlisle (7f, soft) off a 15lb higher mark in August 2024; not at the same level last year but starts out for her new yard off a reduced mark; tongue tied; worth a market check. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Has produced most of her best results, including sole success, at Redcar but went close in sole attempt in a Thirsk handicap; however, looks more exposed than the other 3yos in this field. |
10/1 |
|
8th 10 (10) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Beaten favourite in the 7.5f nursery on this card last year, but better than a record of 1-23 might imply and she remains 4lb below her winning mark; likely goaded into overracing last time over a 1m2f trip she's still quite new to, and return to about 1m for now may do no harm. |
9/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
27th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Stamina for 1m2f wasn't assured at Redcar, a course that suits her, eight days ago but she was fine and meets Baldosa (third) and Diamond Aura (fourth) on the same terms; below-par favourite here in the spring, which would be a slight worry. |

7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has claims on his best form for Tim Easterby, but he's still a maiden after eight starts and was tailed off on his stable debut at Thirsk (1m, hood added; 9-2) ten days ago; that was after a break, but he has something to prove and is untried on AW; headgear removed. |
16/1 |

10th 3 (9) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |

Seven-race maiden for Tim Easterby; has shown reasonably positive signs in ordinary handicaps; a possible danger, provided he improves for first-time hood on debut for new yard. |
9/2 |

7th 5 (5) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

9st 7lb |
Yet to add to her 2yo AW win; unlucky to come to grief on last month's stable debut but was soundly beaten at Kempton (1m, AW) last week and also struggled the only previous time she raced on slow ground; cheekpieces refitted. |
25/1 |

9th 2 (1) |
14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Won a Southwell maiden (7f, AW) in September 2024 but has form figures of 0908469U in handicaps since; had an excuse on recent stable debut at Thirsk (slipped and unseated rider) but was a big price for that race and she's now 1-11; others preferred. |
25/1 |

6 (4) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 12lb |
Record of 1-10 for Tom Dascombe, the success in AW maiden; inconsistent in handicaps and has enough to prove back on turf on debut for new stable; absent since February. |
