18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Course win last September off this mark (8.3f, good to soft); never a threat over that trip here last month but he's a possible reviver in a race lacking depth. |

Just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to soft) last September; rarely seen on fast ground and although he has run well on it, he seems to needs a softer surface these days. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Showed benefit of latest wind op when winning twice at around 2m in February (good to soft/soft); slightly disappointing on latest outing in April, though, and needs to be back in peak form to have a chance off current mark. |

A dual 2m winner and progressive over hurdles this season but he failed to translate that form back onto the Flat at Doncaster last month; he's the sort to bounce back here though. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
10yo who posted a fairly encouraging reappearance run at Ayr (7f, good to firm) last Wednesday, when rallying for fifth of eight; each-way possibilities if building on that run now back up in trip. |
33/1 |

5th 9 (9) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
10yo who made a winning reappearance here in 2024 (sole course win from 29 attempts) and was on the scoresheet at Musselburgh last September; however, his campaign petered out tamely and a return to form is needed on his seasonal debut. |

Three-time Musselburgh winner (1m-1m1f; beat Tacitus by a neck last August); mostly struggling this season, albeit did shape a bit better when fifth (beaten 2l) to Zumaaty and Temper Trap at Hamilton last week; stablemate of Onthebunny. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won last summer's Carlisle Bell off this mark (1m, soft); ran well when fifth in the Spring Mile at Doncaster on his return before finding only his stablemate Milteye too strong at Ripon 13 days ago (1m, good to soft; Walsingham back in third); fully effective over C&D but he appears to have a preference for slower than good now and drying conditions aren't sure to suit. |
3/1 |

2nd 5 (4) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
The vast majority of his wins have come on slow ground but the going was good when he was second in this race last year; reappeared with promising fifth of 22 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster and could be in the mix. |
3/1 |

5th 21 (11) |

Suited by ground softer than good; record of 11-52 on turf features a win off 2lb higher in the 2025 Carlisle Bell; respectable second to Prosperitas at Doncaster on last appearance; competitively weighted. |

17th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All 13 wins have come elsewhere but he does have course form and he did so well when going close at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) last week; however, he's now 6lb higher than his September win which might be a step too far. |
9/2 |

2nd 9 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Rounded off last season with a game win here (1m Class 5, good to soft; from 4lb lower), that his 13th win; struggled in a competitive Sunday Series Handicap at Musselburgh 24 days ago, and it might be a similar story here; stablemate of Pearl Eye and Motawaared. |
40/1 |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |

11yo who was as good as ever last season, winning three times, including at Ayr in September when last season; this two-time course winner is not ruled out on his return but there's a suspicion he'll improve for the run. |

2-7 since switching to current stable in July, with both wins gained over 7f on ground slower than good; also suited by a quicker surface and his recent defeat at Catterick can be excused (trapped wide throughout); respectable fourth at Hamilton (1m) yesterday. |

Close third at Beverley (1m2f, heavy) last month and won comfortably at Hamilton (8.3f, good to soft) next time; only fourth of seven when unpenalised back at Hamilton (8.3f, soft) last Monday and a new 6lb higher mark has now kicked in, but he's not ruled out in view of his penultimate form. |
