Three wins for his former stable, the latest at Hamilton (6f, good) in June; sold for 11,000gns last month; widest stall to overcome on his stable debut; a hood now returns.

Won at Hamilton (6f, good) last month on second start back from a break and the neck runner-up went one better there next time; he's used to plying to his trade in a lower grade but is not discounted up just 2lb.

Came up short when third of seven at York (5f, good) but being drawn on the wing was no help and he was noticeably short in the betting (11-10); still ran to a smart level and could be hard to beat.

J: Charles Bishop

T: Robert Cowell

Rarely seen on a downhill track but ran a corking race in Group 3 over C&D as 2yo; often well below best in 2026 but intermittent flashes of form have lightened the gloom, including when a close fourth at Pontefract (5f, good to firm; first-time visor, retained) latest; on the risky side overall.

J: Paul Mulrennan

His mark continues to fall and there were promising signs at Newcastle (5f, AW) in June; however, two lesser runs have followed and he has to turn things around in a first-time visor (has worn cheekpieces/blinkers this term).

Alfa Whiteburd

J: Jason Hart

T: Ivan Furtado

Easily capitalised on a reduced mark at Chester (7f, good) last month and he's made all over this C&D on both starts since (good to firm); this 5yo is up to a career-high mark but has never been better and could prove tough to catch once more.

A four-time 6f AW scorer in 2025; built on earlier promise to gain a first turf victory in 7f Chester handicap a week ago, making all and drawing right away last 1f for 8l success; major shout under a 5lb penalty.

Both wins on Polytrack (7f/1m) when making all in first-time headgear; currently running well here, however, and he followed a 40-1 second (7f) at the start of last month with a respectable third of 14 (1m) four weeks later; should give it another good go.

Won twice on Polytrack for Charlie Johnston; 0-10 for current yard but a repeat of his second over 7f here four weeks ago would see him on the scene; has won at 1m.

Dual Polytrack winner (7f/1m) for Charlie Johnston whose form in nine starts for this yard has been patchy; neck defeat over 1m here in May came in a slowly run contest and more will be needed to come out best in this.
