24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has done his winning over 6f; placed over same trip at Southwell in two of his last three runs; numerous defeats over 7f are a reason to be cautious with him today. |
10/1 |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent and hard to win with; better over C&D early in the month but typically failed to build on it at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago (said to have been unsuited by racing wide throughout from stall 9); Dicko The Legend looks his yard's best shot. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
6f winner here last November who returned to that level when second to Jamaican Storm over C&D five weeks ago; every chance of turning things round on 3lb better terms but he's never been the most reliable. |
5/1 |

2nd 2 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Sole success came in a 6f handicap here last November and he's now 1lb lower, but there's a suspicion that shorter trips suit him best. |

29th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Weighted to turn the tables on Von Krolock from their C&D clash in April; made the breakthrough (19th attempt) in refitted cheekpieces over C&D (11-4 favourite, from 2lb lower) recently; player with Billy Loughnane in the saddle. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Largely consistent maiden who had good to soft ground as an excuse for her below-par run at Goodwood in early June; not seen since but was second over C&D off 1lb higher on her latest visit to Wolverhampton (April) and also ran well the only previous time she wore cheekpieces (May). |

C&D winner in March 2025 and has since added 7f handicaps at Redcar, where she again made the frame last time (7f); solid contender back here, for all that an extra furlong may be ideal these days. |

17th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

14-race maiden; bits of form this year that bring him into the reckoning, including on AW, and he's sliding down the weights; not discounted. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

13-race maiden who has shown his best form on the AW; safely held when fifth of eight behind Von Krolock at Lingfield (6f) 12 days ago and makes only limited appeal back on turf. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Doubled his tally over C&D in May for Ben Haslam; well held in 7f handicaps at York and Ayr on last two starts for his new yard, however, and needs to take a big step forward. |
33/1 |

11th 3 (8) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
First leg of a 6f double in May came here on good to firm; also finished close up over 6f on good to soft on final two runs for Ben Haslam but never better than midfield in 7f York handicap for new yard in July; returns from eight weeks off with second-time cheekpieces replacing the visor he wore at York. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Scored by a neck at Newcastle (6f, AW) in February and he repeated the feat over that C&D in March; very low-key return when last of nine here three weeks ago and he's probably still building back up to an AW campaign. |
33/1 |

8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

Not run on turf since down the field behind Dream Deal in this race last year; turned in a string of consistent efforts round Newcastle last winter, winning twice, and this may set him up for a return to Tapeta. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Sole success came on AW in March 2025 for the Crisford yard; best run this year when runner-up at Ayr (6f, good to soft) last month in first-time visor (retained since); didn't back that up when eighth of 16 at Redcar (6f, good) 12 days later but holds claims if he puts his best foot forward. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Off a much reduced mark and with a new visor fitted he ran his best race for a while to be second of 13 at Ayr (6f, good to soft) recently; clear claims if he can back that up. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Sole win on turf came over two years ago and his last two efforts have been moderate; this mark is fine if first-time cheekpieces spark him back to life, however. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Two wins at Newcastle (6f, AW) this year, but not very consistent and was well beaten at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last month; 2lb out of the weights; stable also runs White Ladder. |

Runner-up in a classified event at Lingfield last month and built on that to win a Newcastle handicap by a neck three weeks ago; did it quite cosily and remains of interest off this 2lb higher mark. |

Has two C&D wins to his name off much higher marks; back to form when a close third over C&D last week (made the running); dangerous if reappearing in the same form. |

3rd 8 (2) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Dual C&D winner but his last success was 15 months ago and he's not made an impact this season; has dropped a long way in the weights but he has plenty to prove and needs a major revival back in trip; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

Rallied to win over C&D in June when the race was run to suit; ran respectably, despite things panning out less favourably, when returned to this scenario last time; possibilities if the cards drop right. |

5th 6 (7) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
C&D winner in June who didn't quite see it out over 1m1f here last time; not the easiest and often misses the break but a big field at this slightly lower level looks ideal; one to consider. |
