1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Absent since heavy defeat over C&D last October; however, he's on a dangerous mark and can go well fresh, and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the betting; no surprise to see a good run. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Returned to form from a slipping mark when sixth of 11 in 7f handicap at Haydock 33 days ago; one for the shortlist. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Not quite as good as he was and it has been a long time since he won over 6f; others appeal more for the win. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

C&D winner; runner-up on this card 12 months ago; having a solid campaign but surprising if he was up to winning. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has only won a seller in Britain but he took some passing off 1lb lower last time at Thirsk (7f, good to soft); likes to lead so he'll need to do plenty of early running from stall 8. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 4 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win an uncompetitive seller at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in July; two creditable efforts have followed without suggesting he's going to be the answer this time. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Notched a third success of 2026 at Brighton (7f) in September; backed it up with a solid fourth of nine in 7f handicap at Beverley 13 days ago; this consistent sort ought to be in the shake-up again. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Three wins this year, including C&D, and he was well on top at the finish when scoring at Brighton (7f, good) three weeks ago; a 4lb rise in a deeper race could leave him vulnerable. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Campaigned mostly over further but proved suited by the return to 7f at Thirsk most recently, opening his account at the 21st attempt; another win is far from inconceivable kept to this distance. |
6/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
He's 0-20 but he went too freely without his usual hood after six months off when fifth of six in 8.5f Wolverhampton AW handicap 13 days ago; can take a step forward now in refitted headgear. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Both his wins in 2026 have come over C&D, the latest last month off a 2lb lower mark; beaten favourite off the same mark back here 11 days ago but ran okay; new mark has kicked in but likely to give a good account |
5/1 |
|
4th 16 (1) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Prominent racer who took his C&D form figures to 1131 when seeing off 11 rivals in an apprentice race on good last Thursday; same mark here so ought to make a bold bid, particularly from the inside draw. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
25-1 but he ran well when third in C&D handicap (good to firm) in July; he got off the mark in Redcar maiden (good to firm) 11 days later and doubled his tally with nose success on AW (again 7f) four weeks ago; not so good over 1m last time but should do better back at this trip; respected. |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 (4) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Off the mark at the tenth attempt when winning a 7f maiden at Redcar in July; better form when narrowly landing a 7f handicap here a fortnight ago; only raised 1lb and looks worth another shot at 1m. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
13 starts here have yielded three wins and eight places, albeit the latest success came nearly two years ago; arrives in form after a string of solid efforts and he's likely to make his presence felt again. |
11/2 |
|
4th 1 (1) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Getting on for nearly two years since his last win but running well of late, reaching the frame for the fourth time in his last five starts when fourth of ten at Musselburgh (7f, good) last Saturday; should be thereabouts again. |
5/1 |
