7th 4 (1) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time winner who has turned a bit of a corner in blinkers, finishing fourth at Southwell (AW; under Harry Vigors) and then nearly winning at Epsom 22 days ago (both over 7f); strongly considered. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Seven-time winner; yet to build upon his pleasing seasonal reappearance in March but ran quite well when fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) three weeks ago and switches back to turf on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
All four AW wins on Polytrack, the latest more than four years ago, and he's likely to need more than a respectable sixth at Newcastle in May, when having a rare run on Tapeta, and also on his Chester form since; headgear returns for the first time since last July. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Third of 26 in a 6f handicap at Glorious Goodwood but then disappointed when 4-1 at Hamilton; lacks the same appeal as some in here, especially when 6f has always looked his trip. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Scored at Leicester (6f) in April; running well since and just edged out when third of 26 in 6f Goodwood handicap 23 days ago; that form is proving very strong, so he merits serious consideration despite 2lb rise. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 12 (16) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The handicapper has been in command since his runaway win at Leicester (6f, good) in April; respectable sixth of 19 at York (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago but suspicion he'll prove vulnerable for win purposes again. |

Winless since 2024 and winless in sprints since 2023; said to have hung left when well beaten on his return to turf seven weeks ago and only holds outside claims. |
33/1 |

13th 14 (14) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Hindered by traffic issues last time (AW); the 9yo hasn't won since 2024 but is nicely weighted, especially if Lewis Chalkley's 7lb claim is taken into account. |
16/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Went without a win in 2025 but often ran well; another serviceable effort when fourth of nine at Wolverhampton in January; others appeal more for win purposes. |

30th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Drops into a Class 6 for the first time on the AW, but has been running poorly lately and his record of 1-30 is another negative; needs the blinkers and returning tongue-tie to make a big difference. |
14/1 |
|
9th 8 (7) |
15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Sole win in 29 starts came over two years ago and hasn't been at best on last three starts, remains to be seen whether drop back to 5f will be in his favour. |
25/1 |

12th 12 (11) |

Has regressed since finishing second of ten from 4lb higher at Leicester (7f, good) in May; record of 1-28 another reason to be cautious. |

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. |

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. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Course regular who has registered four wins and five places from 21 starts here, including when scoring over 8.5f in April; has proved his stamina for 1m2f since July and has soft ground form too; may well make an impact. |
14/1 |

3rd 1 (5) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Off the mark for the year at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in April and he has run several good races in defeat since; he should be in the thick of the action once more. |

5th 6 (1) |

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. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

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. |

24th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

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. |

10th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

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. |
