9st 2lb |
Seven wins include three on turf and it was a first success at 7f when scoring at Newcastle (AW; stays 1m) in December; took a good step forward from his return to turf when a keeping-on fourth at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; respected. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
A three-time 6f/7f scorer in 2025; kept busy and in good form (on the AW) this term until only 16th in 7f York handicap eight days ago; he's the type to bounce back though. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has raced almost exclusively on Newcastle's AW since joining Phil Kirby last autumn, winning three times (6f/7f) and placed on six other occasions, including last four starts; three 6f turf wins earlier in career (including here on good to firm) provide hope that he can continue the good work now back on the grass. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won this race in 2022 as a 5yo; no sign of his enthusiasm waning this year, winning three 6f handicaps, and stepping back up in trip will suit after two good 5f efforts last month; chance. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Ideally suited by an easy 6f or stiff 5f and knows how to win; turned in a solid effort at his beloved Sandown last weekend and remains reliable despite his age, but there's not much room for manoeuvre off this mark. |

11-time turf winner who won by 4l at Lingfied in July but he's been a long way below that form in three subsequent runs; this return to 6f is no problem but he needs a major revival on belated Tapeta debut; blinkers reapplied. |

He boasts a high level of form on AW, running to an RPR of 105 or more in ten of his 20 AW starts; has left the impression most of his ability is intact on turf this summer and although he has a higher mark in this sphere, he's still a contender of some interest. |

Some good runs in defeat this April-July and he's well treated on that form; however, this 8yo wasn't performing at the same level in the second half of the summer and needs to raise his game back from a two-month break. |

Inconsistent and regressive this year but down the weights and he was third of 13 off this mark over C&D last month; would have been closer granted a clear run and can be involved if he's on another going day. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
13-time winner who is ideally suited by slow ground; his last success was off 2lb higher at Ripon (6f, soft) last summer but he's been well held in both runs this season; now drops back in trip but this veteran needs a major revival. |

13-91; won from this mark at Ripon (6f, soft; Ideal Guest third) last July and was runner-up at Pontefract (from 4lb higher) last September; weakened - eighth of nine - on last month's C&D comeback run (66-1) but that's likely to have brought him on. |

Resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f; 10-1, from a 2lb lower mark) early in the New Year, having regularly caught the eye here prior; no obvious excuses when fourth over C&D latest (14-1); others more appealing. |

Made winning racecourse debut as a 3yo (7f, good to firm) and he's well treated on some of that year's handicap form too; he was returning from 583 days off when tailed off at York last month (6f, good to firm) and he has something to prove, for all this is weaker; accessories back on today. |

Runner-up twice in 6f fast-ground handicaps in 2021 but not seen since finishing down the field at Chelmsford in December of that year; it's of some interest that connections persevere but a watching brief has to be the percentage call given the length of the absence. |
