17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
A dual winner (around 1m) in 2025 but he's yet to fire this season, only ninth of 11 in 1m Redcar handicap four weeks ago; others appeal more. |

9th 11 (3) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |

Has dropped 8lb lower than when last winning a handicap for good reason; his last two starts didn't suggest a return to winning ways was imminent. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Prolific winner at 1m-1m1f on good or slower; inconsistent this season but has slipped to a workable mark and, if in the same form as at Ripon on penultimate start, he could have a say. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Soft-ground specialist who landed a fifth success when scoring at Ayr (1m) in September; yet to get going in three starts this year but he's edging down the weights and the booking of Colin Keane catches the eye; requires monitoring in the market with every drop of rain in his favour. |

11th 7 (13) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |

7yo who was better than ever last season, a campaign that concluded with a fine second of 17 over C&D (good); races off the same mark today but he hasn't shone on his two outings this year. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Three-time winner, the most recent coming at Carlisle (1m, good to firm) in June 2024; placed in each of his last four starts, albeit he was below his best last time, and once again has an each-way chance. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 7 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Last of his three wins came over C&D (good to firm) just over two years ago but he arrives off the back of three solid placed efforts, including when second over C&D ten days ago; mark is creeping back up but he needs considering. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 7 (6) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Four runs here have yielded two seconds and a win in this race in 2024; down the field in last year's renewal but after some modest efforts he's rediscovered his level of late, going close at Hamilton last month and finishing a close third at Ripon three weeks ago; yard going well and he's in the mix again. |

9yo who looked as good as ever when making all with something to spare at Sandown (1m, good) in May on his sole run this season; however, he's never defied a mark this high and may be vulnerable in this hot contest. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Mostly creditable efforts in 2025 and he won at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) in August; Chester's extended 1m2f possibly stretched his stamina last time; could bounce back but as a 7yo he's more exposed than some of these. |
10/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Modest strike-rate of 3-37 but his last win was at Thirsk (7f) last month and he ran another good race when a close third at Newmarket (1m) last time; now goes into unknown territory at this trip but he ran well over 1m1f in July and he's not ruled out; acts on good to firm and good to soft. |

13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has record of 4-10 at Chester and he won this race in 2023; no joy in Bahrain last winter and has mixed record since returned to Britain but he won at Haydock (1m2f, good) in June and was only just caught at Chelmsford last time; remains feasibly treated on his best form and he's respected back at this track. |
4/1 |
|
8 (2) |
7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Ended a long losing run when scoring off a reduced mark at Haydock (1m2f, good) in June but he dropped right out in his follow-up bid there two weeks later; now drops back in trip but he's not easy to predict and has had only three AW runs in his 42-race career; others preferred. |
13/2 |
|
12th 9 (16) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Snapped a long losing run and capitalised on a reduced mark over 10.4f here (good) a fortnight ago; enjoyed the run of the race in front and it might be the case this longer trip stretches him nowadays, but he did it nicely last time and remains well treated on old form back up 6lb; not discounted. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Recorded his sixth victory of the year with a career-best effort in 5.4f handicap at York 16 days ago; he's also a winner in the mud so must enter calculations once more. |
5/1 |
|
1 (7) |
7th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He has enjoyed a fine season, winning five handicaps, and he ran another sound race when fourth in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon three weeks ago; this intermediate trip should suit and he's versatile where the going is concerned; likely to run well but might find a few better treated. |
10/1 |
|
2 (17) |
16th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
He's enjoyed a fine year and although he's come unstuck on his last two starts, he did too much early at York and then raced up the middle in the Stewards' Cup; earlier Ascot win off just 2lb lower was a fine effort; first visit to Ripon but he has won on the undulations at Epsom; drawn against the rail and a big run would seem likely. |

10st 2lb |
Has produced his peak RPR of 102 in both C&D attempts, including a win off 3lb higher in this race last year; Conor Whiteley takes off a bonus 5lb; interesting returned to this scenario. |
6/1 |
|
5th 2 (7) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Has shown signs of a resurgence and is back down to 0-90 company for the first time since successful at Ayr (1m) last July, but all four wins have come on soft ground so drying conditions wouldn't be ideal; stable triple-handed. |
12/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Ran well when fifth of 18 at York (1m, good) three weeks ago on his second start of the season; his four wins (one here) have come on soft going so slower ground today would aid his cause; could be a contender. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |

All British wins have been over 1m at York and he's unraced on the AW; some respectable shows in better handicaps this year but not the last twice; bit risky. |
10/1 |
|
5 (6) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
His three wins in Britain have all come over 1m at York but he is fully effective at other tracks and he wasn't beaten far in his one Sandown run back in June 2022 (1m, good to firm); rain won't bother him and he's slipped to a dangerous mark but he will need a good pace to aim at back at 7f; stable have won the last two runnings. |
7/1 |
|
17th 14 (1) |
21st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Scored just once in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 but on the last three occasions it was over 1m in the summer at York and in 2022 it was in this race; 14th and 13th in the last two runnings of it, with reappearance the pick of his mixed record this season, but he's much too well handicapped to be ignored. |

Not the most reliable and winless since March 2024 for Gemma Tutty; hinted at a revival though on just second run for his new yard with fourth of eight in 1m1f handicap at Goodwood last month; not without interest off a tumbling mark with Oisin Murphy up for the first time. |
