9st 11lb |
17lb lower than when winning at Ascot last September (5f, good to firm; completing a quick double) having been badly out of form since; usually ridden by Amie Waugh; down to Class 5 in a handicap for the first time. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Made all over 5f on seasonal debut and finished second on both starts since, latterly under Cara Tuke in 14-runner C&D (soft) contest 16 days ago; evidently in good nick; ought to give another good account. |

2nd 5 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
He has returned from a break in top form, winning a 5f handicap at Hamilton (good) before a solid second at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago; returning to 6f no issue and he will be fine if it rains; should go well. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Reappeared with a close second at Musselburgh in April and she built on that when forging clear over C&D (good) last month; up 6lb but she has form figures of 3211 at this track and was as good as ever last time; big player. |
11/4 |

1st 2 (7) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Her front-running C&D win last May came off just 1lb lower; ended 2025 quietly but she returned to form after six months off, keeping on well for second at Musselburgh (5f, good) 32 days ago; takes on some less-exposed 3yos but likely to go well. |

2nd 2 (3) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Reappears off the mark she defied at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) last May and has won first time up before; also a creditable third on previous C&D visit; no surprise were she to go well. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a C&D maiden in May 2023 and made all at Newcastle (5f, AW) this April off 2lb lower; however, he's finished last when back on turf for last two outings, so there are mixed messages. |

Prominent racer; made all to win a 5f handicap at Newcastle in April off 3lb lower; next time was a write off and he returns from a break in a race packed with other pace influences. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Back on track with second at Redcar (5f) in April but has finished down the field twice since; bounce back needed. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Fair 5f scorer who got back on track with second at Redcar (5f) in April; not best drawn when tenth in 5f Thirsk handicap since and remains one to be interested in off a 2lb lower mark. |
9/2 |

10th 8 (12) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won off this mark at Newcastle (5f; 7-1; first-time visor) last September but mostly disappointing since until chasing home Beerwah at Redcar (5f, good to firm; 16-1) five weeks ago; is 5lb better off with that rival here; one of two for trainer Michael Dods. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
In fine form last summer, culminating in her Portland win off a 2lb higher mark; slow to come to hand this year but much better dropped back to Class 4 company on her last two starts; this is tougher than the fillies' handicap in which she finished second last week but she is a major player all the same. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 (6) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Progressed well once handicapping as a 4yo and kicked on again last season, landing a hat-trick in late summer, latterly here off 2lb higher; not at her best in the spring but this is her time of year and she offered more latest; respected. |
9/4 |

4th 1 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Got on a roll in the second half of 2025, completing a quick hat-trick when landing the Portland Handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good) in September; yet to get going this year and drop in class isn't enough to tempt. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ran creditably off 2lb higher back here last Friday, beaten just over 1l and taking record over C&D to 121214; gained most recent success off this mark at Pontefract in May; very solid chance. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Two wins in May (5f, good/good to firm) and has continued in good heart, beaten just over 2l when eighth of 16 over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago; however, he needs something extra today. |

21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three course wins early in the year and he is now 3lb lower than for the latest of them; dropped down the weights on the back of some disappointing turf runs and he should be a more potent force back under these conditions. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
A dual 5f scorer in 2025; right back on track of late when placed in handicaps (around 5f) at Wetherby and Ayr so she ought to be thereabouts nudged up 1lb. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 10 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
All her wins have come on good or slower and with that in mind her recent second at Wetherby on good to firm was most encouraging; the more rain to fall the better and she's a major player. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 6 (9) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All his wins have been at 5f on good or softer; three fair runs this year; a possible, but stall 9 not ideal. |
