2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Doubled his tally over C&D when making all in a class 5 handicap four weeks ago, his third win when ridden by Elle-May Croot; likes it here and has good claims off 3lb higher, but could be taken on for the lead by Spartan Fighter. |

No match for Coramento here last month in a race he won the previous season; however, he does have a pull in the weights with the winner and must have an each-way chance. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D win off this mark in March; knocking at the door on most recent AW appearances and latest down-the-field run in the Leger Legends event at Doncaster is easy to excuse as he saw no daylight; another to consider. |
8/1 |

8th 2 (8) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Campaigned over 7f in recent times but shapes as if this return to 1m will suit; in form, having made the frame on AW in last three starts; effective on turf; strong contender under Sammy Jo Bell, who has ridden the winner of this race three times. |
5/1 |

2nd 1 (6) |

Both AW wins have been here (1m/7f) and he suffered a near miss at Southwell (7f) last time; unlikely to be far away. |

Ran better when 3l off the winner at Doncaster (7f) three weeks ago; 0-5 on the AW but sole placing was on this track; respected. |
4/1 |

7th 10 (10) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
A two-time scorer (including over C&D) for Michael Appleby last summer; well below par for his present handler this season, however, and he failed to beat a rival in 1m Pontefract handicap last time. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won so well here in July that he went up 7lb to a career-high mark, off which he was only fourth a month ago; that was under a 3lb claimer as well; might be vulnerable. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Course win number four when a decisive winner over 7f on stable debut in August; 7lb rise sees him on a career-high mark, though Jack Nicholls claims 3lb; clear claims if able to hold his form. |
7/2 |

1st 7 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins came over 7f/1m here last year, the latest from 3lb lower; has a bit to prove now back with his former trainer (who owns him) after six months off; market may be revealing. |

20th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
C&D winner off a 13lb higher mark last December; rather disappointing earlier in the season, but better efforts on last three starts and has a chance off his current good mark. |
9/1 |
|
4th 2 (1) |
1st Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
While his 2026 campaign has been underwhelming, he has dropped down the weights and three of his last four runs have been creditable; each-way claims back into Class 6 company. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Should be well handicapped but slow starts are holding him back; did well to finish fourth at Musselburgh recently but he seems risky these days. |

20th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Won off this mark at Ripon in July (1m, good) but bit below par on last few runs; others look stronger. |

6th 2 (2) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Suited by Ripon and he held off an in-form rival in convincing fashion there (1m, good) in July; mixed otherwise this year and he needs to prove that the return to 7f round here will suit. |
14/1 |
|
6th 3 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Up and down this season, and well beaten since his 1m win at Ripon in July; has good C&D form but not certain what to expect. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time winner who has turned a bit of a corner in blinkers, finishing fourth at Southwell (AW; under Harry Vigors) and then nearly winning at Epsom 22 days ago (both over 7f); strongly considered. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Seven-time winner; yet to build upon his pleasing seasonal reappearance in March but ran quite well when fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) three weeks ago and switches back to turf on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
All four AW wins on Polytrack, the latest more than four years ago, and he's likely to need more than a respectable sixth at Newcastle in May, when having a rare run on Tapeta, and also on his Chester form since; headgear returns for the first time since last July. |

8th 6 (4) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

10th 7 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Five AW wins include two on this course (at 6f; has won over 7f) but he's been going through a quieter spell of late; others more likely. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Recent efforts have not been his best but he's a dual C&D winner who has never been this low in the weights; a revival would come as no surprise. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
No turf win since 2022 but he has won three AW handicaps in the last 14 months; should be well treated but recent efforts haven't been his best; this is a drop in class so not dismissed, even though the return of cheekpieces wouldn't be an obvious plus based on previous usage. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days but it was a fairly close third at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; now 4lb lower after four lesser runs; handicapping case can be made but percentage call is to oppose. |
