25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner; best known for exploits at Thirsk more recently, including a close second there last May (5f, good); cheekpieces off for his reappearance and not a solid option, for all he has dropped to a good mark. |

Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 2lb higher mark; looked booked for another good season when finishing fast for second over 5f here in May; struggled in three runs since but cheekpieces return today and Paul Mulrennan is back on board; big player. |

Losing run goes back to 2020 but he regularly caught the eye with strong finishes in 6f handicaps last year; resumes on a good mark and can surely pop up at some point this year. |

19th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win in 16 starts came at Catterick (6f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) in July last year; 2lb lower than when beaten a nose at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) a year ago, but well held the last twice which raises doubts despite the drop in grade. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four of his six wins have come over C&D, including the corresponding race in 2024; drew a blank in 2025 but retains ability and he has run some solid races in defeat this year too, keeping on for fourth at Beverley 18 days ago; drops in class but he has the widest stall to contend with. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Has won two of three C&D starts (good and good to firm), the latest in July 2024; went very close to breaking the losing run when involved in a tight finish on Southwell AW in March; convincing claims. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Resumed winning ways on AW at Newcastle (5f; beating stablemate Herakles) in April; ran well from this revised mark at Pontefract (5f; third, reportedly bled from the nose) subsequently; trainer won this in 2021, 2022, and 2024, so he's one to have on the shortlist. |
4/1 |

3rd 7 (4) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Stepped up on his low-key reappearance when winning a 5f handicap at Newcastle 16 days ago; this demands more up 4lb and he wasn't at his best in one C&D run last summer. |
11/4 |

1st 6 (10) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Should come on for last month's Southwell reappearance; returning to a stiff 5f no bad thing either and it will be interesting to see how he fares in the betting with Paul Midgley running three here. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
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. |

8th 8 (4) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Course winner who scored at Ripon (6f, soft) last July and is just 2lb higher on this reappearance outing; however, 6f has been this 11yo's optimum trip in recent seasons, and this is his first run since October. |

12th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Looked promising for Richard Hannon in spring 2022 but is yet to make any further progress, and signed off for that stable with a down-the-field finish in June (1m, AW); still with same owners but has never contested a sprint and needs to have been refreshed by switch to new yard. |

28th Jun 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Dual novice winner who is 0-8 in handicaps, but has performed with credit in his last three starts; has won fresh so four-month absence not a major issue, but although he has run well over this far 7f may be his ideal trip. |

Veteran whose losing run stretches back to March 2022; well beaten in two starts this winter and not sure he's in the form required to capitalise on his lowly mark; strong pace would help matters. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 6f success at Southwell and comes here on the back of a good third of 11 in 7f Kempton handicap; this three-time C&D scorer must enter calculations. |
9/2 |

3rd 3 (5) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Nine-time winner (6f-7.4f), who defied this mark at Southwell in January but he's been well held in three runs since; now drops back in grade but he needs to get back near his best. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |

Did too much up front kept to AW on return from break last time, again running below the form of his January win; effective on turf but has never defied a mark as high as current one. |

5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Winning for the third time at Wolverhampton, and his first over further than 7f, when landing a C&D handicap in March; his stamina looked stretched by 9.4f when fourth 18 days ago; not ruled out back down in distance. |
5/2 |

4th 8 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His third win here when holding on grimly last month (8.6f), ending a two-year losing streak; only 2lb higher but he wouldn't be an obvious one to follow up and has never raced over quite this far. |
12/1 |

1st 3 (3) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All four wins at 7f, two on this track, but he lost out only narrowly over C&D in January (Lhebayeb third); found less over 1m at Newcastle (favourite) last month but is of more interest back at Wolverhampton. |
