27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner who showed more back on Tapeta last time, when drawn wide and inclined to hang right at Wolverhampton; remains pretty consistent and is on a competitive mark, so there are positives. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (11) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has nine career wins, the most recent at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February off 2lb lower; should be better for his fourth of eight at Lingfield (6f, soft) last month and has won off 8lb higher when in his prime; not out of this. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt when coming from rear to land a Carlisle handicap (7f, soft) in May; only 1lb higher here but he's been well held in his last two starts and this is his first attempt at a sprint trip; others preferred. |
20/1 |

10th 8 (8) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt at Carlisle (7f, soft) last month; soundly beaten at Doncaster (7f, good) since but it's possible he'll be able to bounce back; has run well on Tapeta elsewhere. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Usually a front-runner; doesn't have the best of strike-rates (2-22) but three good runs in blinkers at Ayr (1m; all on good to firm; has form on good to soft) in June and he stays this trip; a possible. |
5/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Prominent racer; galvanised by first-time blinkers when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) last month and although he has been expensive to follow since, he has still performed with great credit; the headgear was left off at Ayr last week but returns today; big run expected. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Run to form in just one of his five starts this year; fully effective at the track and rain would boost his chance; one to consider with a good claimer booked. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (10) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice last season and was seemingly back in good form when third at Haydock (7f, good) in May, his second run this year, but two lesser efforts have followed and he now has a point to prove. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Has risen to new heights this year, winning six times, the most recent three over 7f on turf (good and soft), but his charmed run ended at Musselburgh last week; runs off the same mark today and has ground to make up on Abduction; may need weight off his back now. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Arrives in the form of his life, completing a turf hat-trick at Ayr (7f, soft) 11 days ago; that made it six wins from his last nine starts and he is respected despite the 6lb rise and stronger opposition. |

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. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run is mounting up but she ran respectably at Carlisle most recently; form over C&D comprises a ready win (off 2lb higher) in this contest two years ago and creditable third (off 7lb higher) last August; good chance back here. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Nearly made a successful switch to handicaps at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) last September, just held by one who won three of his next five starts; had a quiet start to 2026 but did better when prominently ridden and having a little in hand against Milford Grange over C&D (soft) in June; up 3lb; capable of better. |
7/1 |

1st 7 (4) |

0-7 but ran well when second in Thirsk maiden (7f, good to soft; 9-2) two weeks ago; a repeat of that run would put him firmly in the mix. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Recorded a quick-fire double on good ground in June (7f/1m) and she was a close-up third off this mark at Carlisle (7f) last month; probably didn't stay 1m1f last time but she'll still need a bit extra and soft ground raises a query. |
16/1 |
|
5th 3 (1) |
25th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two quick wins in June (7f/1m, good; including here) and she returned to form with a close third at Carlisle (7f, good) a fortnight ago; there is every chance that she'll stay 1m1f and she could be bang there. |
5/1 |
