19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Well backed when winning the corresponding race 12 months ago; 3lb lower today and although this year's efforts have been modest, he had a break before his reappearance 19 days ago and will be fresh for his autumn campaign; high on the list. |
11/2 |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Far from convincing on 2026 form and chance partly depends on the actions of the weather; may prove resurgent when he's back on ideal ground, namely soft/heavy; on last winning mark. |

3rd 6 (7) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has a record of 0-12 since hat-trick last season and is suffering from seconditis at present but wouldn't need much improvement to go one better; ran creditably, beaten only 1l, at Chester (1m2f, soft) last Saturday; in the mix. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Perhaps a shade high in the weights but running well, last time at Beverley (1m2f, heavy; fine on good) finishing second for a third time in succession behind a well-handicapped winner who got loose on the lead; solid chance. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice for Dermot Weld (at up to 1m1f); easily his best runs for Declan Carroll have been here (twice runner-up) but those were at about 7f and at 125-1 he was tailed off at York three weeks ago (Shafdar was third); the blinkers worn for his last two races are left off. |
14/1 |
|
19th 16 (18) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Two wins (1m1f/1m, good) for Dermot Weld in Ireland last year; second start for current yard when runner-up at Chester (7f, good) in May; three poor runs followed but back to form in blinkers (retained here) when second of nine back at Chester (extended 7f, good) six weeks ago; needs to prove his stamina and that he can string good efforts together. |

10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Successful twice in Scotland this term, including at Hamilton (1m1f, good) latest start; has been reassessed to a career-high mark and faces a stiffer assignment back up in grade. |
14/1 |
|
1st 12 (10) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning reappearance at Musselburgh (1m, good to soft; first start since being gelded) in April and he also went close there over 1m1f in June; down the field at Goodwood (1m2f, good to firm) 12 days ago having raced freely, but it's likely this slight drop back in trip will suit. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Given his fine record on slow ground at Goodwood he was thoroughly underwhelming there last weekend, but two days later he bounced straight back to finish second at Epsom (7f, good to soft); might run well again but he's hard to catch right these days. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
On a reduced mark and this two-time C&D scorer can't have the ground soft enough; not at his best at Goodwood on Saturday. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner; a mixed bag this season but has dipped to a dangerous mark and always a chance that cheekpieces could have a desired effect; ideally he'd prefer a tad further. |
13/2 |
|
10th 4 (11) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Possible to excuse his last two efforts and was running well in defeat before that; 2lb lower than when successful at Carlisle (7.7f, soft) in June last year and, with the likely conditions not an issue, he makes the shortlist. |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Merely midfield at the Galway festival on last two starts but he's run some really good races in defeat here this year; close third in this race last year and versatile ground-wise; very capable of being in the mix. |
9/1 |
|
8th 16 (1) |
2nd Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 0y |
8st 13lb |
First reserve; only 7s when beaten 8l behind Orandi over 1m here on Tuesday, weakening up the hill; good record over this trip, though, and ground-versatile, so not one to dismiss. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Likes give underfoot but has won on good ground; on last winning mark (April) and he was closing on the principals in a Class 2 at Ripon late last month; respected in his bid to go one better than 12 months ago. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (8) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Ran creditably at Ayr in the latest start of his light 2026 campaign; steps back up in grade but could go well returned to this scenario, having gained his most recent success over C&D (in April). |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who made it 3-3 on slow ground (soft/good to soft) when winning on her reappearance at Pontefract (1m) in May; just 2lb higher for today's first run since and this unexposed filly could have a big part to play with conditions to suit. |
9/1 |

1st 1 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice in novice company before running creditably in 1m handicaps at Ascot and Redcar last July; both subsequent runs have resulted in heavy defeats over 1m2f; returns from 222 days off at a lower level and back at a mile; not ruled out. |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Down the field in hot 3yo handicap over C&D (good to soft) at the Ebor meeting and it will be a concern if slow ground prevails again; however, he drops back down in grade today and he's well handicapped on the pick of his course form; not discounted. |
25/1 |
|
15th 18 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
It was a small field at Ripon (1m, good to firm) in which he returned to form last time, when battling it out with Command The Stars and Noelan Star, and this is much more competitive; however, his two best RPRs have come at York and he's 4lb lower than when second of 14 here (7f, good) in May; could go well at a big price if conditions suit (unproven on slow ground). |

20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |

Dual course winner during his progressive spell a long while ago; out of the frame in selling handicap last weekend and current mark reflects a broad decline in his form. |
25/1 |
|
5th 5 (11) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
He's dropped down the weights this year and is one to watch in the betting, but needs to perform considerably better than at Beverley a fortnight ago when returning from a 101-day break. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Scored here (1m) in May and she's run some good races since including a close call at Hamilton (1m3f) in June; remains feasibly treated on that form but both wins have been on good to firm and she was well below form on soft ground at Haydock two weeks ago. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (4) |
3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Consistent in defeat since winning over 1m at Ayr (good to firm) in May but looks to be biting off more than she can chew from out of the handicap in this higher grade; has raced mainly on good or firmer and needs to prove she's fully effective on softer ground. |
20/1 |
