28th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Four-time winner here (6f/7f); looked to be on the way back when just edged out at Hamilton (1m, soft) last month and the winner has gone in again four times since, but he needs to put a poor effort at Ayr (1m, soft) this month behind him. |

9st 0lb |
9yo who is on a 15-race losing sequence going back to May 2024 but that last win came on heavy ground and he was short-headed at Hamilton (1m, soft) last month; in the shake-up if backing up that latest form. |

18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Suited by soft ground and 7f, and on a very good mark now (13lb lower than when winning at Catterick in September 2023); mainly out of form this season; probably best watched. |
12/1 |

9th 10 (9) |
24th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Four 7f wins at Catterick in 2023 but he's been struggling since the spring and his much-reduced mark isn't helping him much at the moment; 0-11 on AW and has it to prove at present. |
7/1 |

10th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has an excellent record at this track and won this 12 months ago off a 10lb higher mark (on soft); powers are on the wane now a 9yo and he's not made much of an impact this year, including when third here 22 days ago. |

28th Nov 2023 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Sole win from 17 Flat starts came over 6f in 2022; that was modest form and she lost it on last three outings this year; failed to show she stays even 1m in that discipline. |

17th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

In good form in the spring, placed four times (6f-8.5f), but she was well beaten at Newcastle on her recent return to action; inexperienced apprentice on board and drawn wide. |

7th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Absent since heavy defeat at Thirsk in May but she slipped at the start and had been running well in defeat on turf previously; returns to action with yard going well and could be a contender. |

15th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
1-17 here, the win coming off this mark over this trip in June last year; some fair efforts on turf this season and 1m2f would have been too far on his return to this venue a fortnight ago, but others are still more solid; stable also runs Wheres The Crumpet. |
14/1 |

9th 2 (7) |
1st Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Course winner (1m, June 2023); consistent over 7f-1m1f lately, shaping as if in need of a greater stamina test when third over 7f at Catterick (soft); head carriage isn't always alluring, but he is worth another go over 1m2f; stablemate of Wheres The Crumpet. |

Losing run up to 26 and 0-11 on the AW, but he was placed in all three starts over C&D this time last year and is slightly lower in the weights now; could sneak into the frame. |

9st 1lb |
No win since June 2022 (that was over C&D) but runner-up on four occasions, including when beaten by a nose here (7.5f) in July; recent Catterick form ties in closely with Elettaria and perhaps the newly applied visor can assist; no back number. |

9st 11lb |
All three wins on turf have come at Catterick; returned from a break with a close fourth there (7f, good to firm) last month but she failed to back that up at Thirsk (eighth of nine) last time; has something to prove again after that and others are preferred. |

Getting on and hard to win with these days; back in form over C&D last time but in a weak-looking 0-55 handicap and that took his record on the AW to 0-17. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 (4) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Eight wins on turf but he's 0-16 on AW and he failed to beat a rival over 7f here last month; has something to prove again after that laboured effort and others are more convincing. |

29th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

In decent form at classified level this year, notably winning over C&D on penultimate run; return to this scenario looks a plus but he's still seeking a first handicap win. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
17th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Fourth, and one place behind Secret Daay, in slower division to Beneficiary, Atrafan and Rebelle Lady's over C&D last week but that came off a 221-day break and he opened his account over a furlong further at Wolverhampton on Monday, holding on well after taking it up turning in; carries 5lb more than his rivals but this may be an easier race. |
