20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
7-24 with his last win coming when joined on the line at Ripon (1m, good; 3-1 favourite) in April 2025; struggled on AW through the winter (0-4), and was pestered for the lead, weakening to finish fifth (beaten 8l), at Ripon five weeks ago; an easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Dead-heated over C&D (good) last April and went very close at Carlisle in June; well handicapped on that form but a long way below his best on AW this year; the return to turf needs to trigger a major revival. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Form figures of 6888 since leaving William Haggas; has dropped 10lb for his troubles but best watched for now. |
10/1 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Started out for current yard with encouraging Redcar sixth in June but he has failed to build on it in a pair of 1m Newcastle handicaps since; needs to take a step forward. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins from an extended 7f to 1m for current yard; perhaps needed the run on seasonal debut but could still have shown more and has had another three months off. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Front-running filly who ran creditably at Ayr last time when bidding for a hat-trick (maiden previously); remains in form and has a strong record (2112) under Lewis Chalkley; solid chance. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Bang-in-form filly who won from the front under Lewis Chalkley here (1m, good to firm) and at Carlisle (7f, good) last month; also effective on good to soft (unraced on soft); likely to given this a good shot. |

26th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Has gained all four handicap wins over the extended 1m at Beverley, two this May; underwhelming prospects judged on two runs here, admittedly back in 2024 but he looks opposable seeing as he may well need a career best. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Ties in with some of today's rivals on recent C&D form but is still seeking a first success at this trip; has gained all Beverley wins over the extended 1m. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a Catterick novice over 7f in April; only seventh of ten on her handicap debut at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) next time but she ran well when runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 26 days ago; steps up in trip and she should have more to offer after just four starts. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won Catterick novice (7f, good) in April on her second start; only seventh of ten on subsequent handicap debut but she was slowly away; only 4-1 that day and retains potential; could bounce back with a big performance. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt when winning at Carlisle (7f, good) in June; has matched that form when runner-up around 1m on good to firm off this mark on both starts since; likely to be on the premises again. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (7) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt when winning at Carlisle (7f, good) last month and ran another good race when bumping into an improver at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) 25 days ago; considered off the same mark. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark on second handicap start when landing moderately-run race at Doncaster last time (1m, good to soft; form fair); stiffer task off this 6lb higher mark but may well progress further. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't go on last season and was gelded; only beat one home on his C&D comeback three weeks ago but shaped well for a long way and is entitled to have come on for that; worth a second look down 2lb. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |

Four-time winner at Pontefract where he was competitive last month; for whatever reason he never gave his running last week at Thirsk. |

9th 12 (7) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Four-time winner at Pontefract where he's been bang there in his last two races; his only other win was over this C&D so looks a player. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Won twice over 7f at Catterick in May (good); not at his best last three runs, but stable back in form and interesting with cheekpieces now tried. |
7/2 |
|
4th 2 (1) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won two 7f Catterick handicaps in May and was placed in this grade at Wolverhampton (7f) when back on AW last month; didn't fire when back at Catterick 17 days ago but still a major player here. |

Betting Forcast
25/1 Good Morning Alex, 8/1 Regalian, 25/1 Style Of Life, 7/2 Glen Nevis, 8/1 Glorious Kitty, 12/1 Coolree, 10/1 Borjina, 4/1 Sandy Craic, 7/1 Tarmonbarry Kid, 10/1 Mount King, 25/1 Filey Beach, 12/1 Cobalt Comet
Verdict
An open finale in which the suggestion is TARMONBARRY KID, who has been freshened up since Hamilton and seems likely to encounter the same sort of ground as when successful at Doncaster in May. Fellow 3yos Sandy Craic (second choice), Borjina and Glen Nevis also merit consideration, while Coolree’s good C&D record makes him a must for the shortlist. [Andrew Sheret]
