3rd 7 (11) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Heavy ground was no help to him in the Ayr Gold Cup last time but he's been a stalwart in highly competitive 6f handicaps this year; sole run here was 7f but he wouldn't be an entirely forlorn hope if back to his best. |
14/1 |

6th 5 (6) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
C&D win as a 2yo; took a while for things to fall his way this year but his win at York (6f, good to firm) in July was followed by a second-place finish in the Stewards' Cup; ran two fine races at York's Ebor meeting (not ideally drawn on first occasion) but he clearly needs more to defy this mark; talented apprentice's 5lb claim is helpful. |
14/1 |

6th 1 (13) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Form figures of 22216 at York; Wednesday's sixth can be upgraded as he was comfortably on top of those drawn high; returning to 6f should suit and he is proven on slow ground, for all that his best efforts have been on good to firm; high on the list. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Back to form with a bang to collar one with a good AW record over 7f here on Monday; there was over 3l back to the third in that 13-runner contest so he could be fairly treated under a 5lb penalty if coping with the quick turnaround; just as effective at 1m. |
7/2 |
|
5th 7 (8) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win to his name after 20 attempts; well treated on this season's best but he has gone quiet more recently; cheekpieces now given a go; others bring more compelling claims. |
16/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Yet to win a handicap and no better than fourth in seven runs for his new yard this year; drops in trip with a tongue tie added; others hold stronger claims. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Ended last season with an easy win in a three-runner Leicester novice (6f, heavy) but she's struggled in two sprint handicaps this term; still has low mileage but she needs the return to slow going and fitting of blinkers to have a galvanising effect. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from 23 starts but he made a bold bid and was only narrowly denied in a Hamilton handicap (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; has leading claims if he can back that up. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not in the same form as he was in May and June last year but he's on a lowly mark now and, after being pushed along from some way out, he did stick well to the task when fourth over C&D (good to firm) recently; form case to be made down in grade. |
7/2 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Yet to be placed after six starts this season (5f-7f) but won off a much higher mark last spring, at Ripon (6f, good to soft), and may yet turn things around; worth a glance in the betting. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Fair Flat racer who kept on from the rear for second of 14 over C&D (good) on handicap debut in April; didn't really build on that run when fifth of 12 here last month but still considered; tongue-tie added. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Fair Flat racer (albeit a maiden) who kept on from the rear for clear second behind Breadalbane Lass over C&D (good) on handicap hurdle debut in April; shortlisted. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 10 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
4yo who is yet to threaten across his three hurdle starts but last time was better and he has potential off his opening jumps mark based on the ability he has shown on the Flat; could be involved. |

16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Modest ten-race maiden who has been struggling (1m-1m2f) since coming back from a gelding operation and wind surgery in the spring; probably worth a go at this trip but still has a bit to prove on classified debut. |
33/1 |
|
5 (4) |
16th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Modest nine-race maiden who has struggled in his last three handicaps including when tailed off at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) 13 days ago; visor is now tried and he has lots to prove back on AW. |
25/1 |
|
9 (10) |
3rd Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Modest maiden (eight races) who has not shone in handicaps; pedigree suggests she is not shouting out for this step up in trip but latest performance gave a bit of encouragement for it. |
14/1 |
