24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D win last April came off a 5lb higher mark; good second at Wolverhampton three weeks ago but unable to back it up at Southwell one week later (both 7f); chance if back to his best. |

30th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time AW winner, the latest at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in April; now 2lb lower and no problem with the return to 7f, but he needs to fare better than in his last three starts. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back to form when winning at Redcar in June (7f, good) and finished a sound third off 6lb higher at Beverley last time (7.5f, good to firm); down 1lb; a possible. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back to form with a 20-1 win at Redcar where he and runner-up Reginald Charles benefited from racing alone; did that comfortably and a 6lb rise wouldn't be too troublesome if he has turned a corner. |
5/1 |

1st 10 (5) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Formerly consistent and has dropped to a handy mark on the pick of his form, but heavy defeats over 1m here and at Ripon in his last two starts leave him with enough to prove. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Respectable fifth in this year's Victoria Cup; prevailed last Saturday to take C&D record to 2-2 and overall strike-rate to 7-23; incurs 6lb penalty but Conor Whiteley takes off a useful 5lb; major player. |
8/1 |

1st 3 (7) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Down the field in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm) but was on the unfavoured far side and prior to that he ran well when fifth of 21 in the Victoria Cup there (7f, good); won over C&D last August; chance. |
6/1 |
|
20th 10 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
A strike-rate of 4-7 on AW includes two Listed wins, at 7f and 6f; not quite so good on grass as yet but he has a 7lb lower turf mark and indicated he could make it pay when an excellent fifth in the big-field Victoria Cup over 7f here (good; has won on good to firm) in May, not ideally positioned there as it turned out; one to consider back at 6f. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner; finished well for fourth at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) in May but has rather mixed record since returned to turf in April and never really got involved at York last time. |
9/1 |
|
18th 2 (18) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Tends to come from well off the pace and sometimes meets trouble; did well in the circumstances when a never-nearer fourth of 14 at Carlisle two weeks ago; won over C&D last spring; big player if the gaps appear. |
12/1 |
|
4th 5 (15) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Promising second on reappearance at Newcastle and better than the bare results suggest since, meeting significant trouble in running in a big field at York last time; could play a major role if getting the breaks. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Prominent racer; just 1lb higher than for last August's win at Chester (7.6f, good to firm); effective over C&D and last month's reappearance should have sharpened him up; suspicion he will prove vulnerable to younger rivals here though. |
16/1 |
|
12th 1 (11) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
This is his first run since last October but he is capable of running well after an absence and he's been runner-up in the last two editions of this race (good to soft/good to firm); interesting candidate on return to action. |
20/1 |
|
10 (3) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Enhanced his fine Chester record when a length winner there in late August (extended 7f; good to firm; acts on soft); the 4lb rise elevates him to a career-high mark which could be troublesome in this deep a handicap. |

Scored at Ripon (6f) last June but yet to hit top form this season, undergoing wind surgery before coming in seventh of ten in 6f Pontefract handicap four days ago; others appeal more. |

7th 6 (9) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Ripon winner off a 3lb higher mark last June (6f, good); not in top form this season but should fare better on first run after having wind surgery |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Back to his last winning mark and his first two runs in 2026 were respectable; eligible for weaker races than this and easy enough to look elsewhere. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
He's now 9lb lower than when completing a double last September and he got a bit closer to the target at Windsor ten days ago; finished second off a 4lb higher mark in this race last year; revival imminent. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who performed with great credit on all five starts last season, including a win here (6.5f) in September and a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f); returned after wind surgery with a low-key effort at York last month but he may have need that run and has claims if he can get back near best; acts on most ground and four of his six wins have been at 7f. |
6/1 |
|
14th 8 (14) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who performed with great credit on all five starts last season, finishing second at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) on his reappearance and beaten just a neck in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) when last seen; has had wind surgery since; no surprise if he makes a bold bid on this return. |
16/1 |
|
24 (5) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Front-runner; the winner of four of his last six starts, notably a game effort at Doncaster six days ago (6.5f, good to soft); a 5lb penalty for that hard-fought short-head success demands more but his fine attitude and abundant stamina will stand him in good stead on a rare 6f outing. |
