17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Runner-up in the 2022 running in sole C&D start; has dropped back to just below his winning mark at Beverley (about 7f; made all in four-runner race) in July but not in much form since; now goes in a visor (won in cheekpieces much earlier in career); revival needed. |

Not quite as good as he was and it has been a long time since he won over 6f; others appeal more for the win. |

C&D winner; runner-up on this card 12 months ago; having a solid campaign but surprising if he was up to winning. |

30th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Placed on stable debut at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) in early May but two lesser efforts have followed and he remains without a win since 2022; raced too freely in a visor on latest outing; cheekpieces tried here. |
14/1 |

6th 4 (2) |
12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run goes back to 2022; did make a positive start for new yard when third (A Major Payne fifth) at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) last month but a subsequent no-show at Leicester needs forgiving; now sports a combination of a refitted tongue-tie and first-time visor. |
12/1 |
|
6th 6 (7) |
26th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Losing run goes back to 2022 but he has course form (7f) and new yard has inherited one who's dropped a long way in the weights; looked to be on the way back when third at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) this month; good claims. |

0-9 since her two wins in August 2023 but currently in a consistent vein of form; raced mainly at sprint distances but ran respectably over 7f at Leicester (heavy) most recently and again has frame possibilities. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Usually travels strongly; 0-6 this season, coming from the back again for creditable minor honours over 7f on heavy ground at Leicester and Newbury (yesterday) in his two starts this autumn; he's the sort who needs things to drop right but more than capable off this mark if they do. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 (7) |
25th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
0-5 this season and beaten favourite at Leicester most recently but ran encouragingly and ties in with Executive Decision on that effort; C&D winner (off 3lb lower) on heavy ground last autumn and enters calculations. |
5/1 |
|
4th 3 (9) |
15th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Last win came over 7f on heavy at Newbury 13 months ago when just 3lb lower; hasn't been running badly during a light season on ground too fast; off since June and record fresh isn't the best, but he's strongly considered. |

Debut winner at Windsor (soft) in 2023 but hasn't added to that; creditable effort in tongue-tie at Wolverhampton penultimate start but failed to settle and below that last time; needs to be back to best. |

Ran well at Wolverhampton (dropped back to this trip with tongue-tie applied) two weeks ago, taking 6f record to 122; has low mileage and may do better still; respected off unaltered mark. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
The oldest contender and a familiar face, having taken part in this race for the last four years (form figures read 6529); beat all bar Eldrickjones over C&D last month but the return to this better grade presents a tougher task. |
16/1 |

2nd 10 (5) |
11th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Four-time C&D winner, including this race in 2021; second in it last year; has continued in good form in the main since winning over C&D last November (didn't run badly at Doncaster latest) and is on the shortlist now back here. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Gained a first win since 2024 at Pontefract (1m) in August; backed it up with a good fifth of 17 in 1m2f Doncaster handicap eight days ago so he's a player in this grade. |
7/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Acts on most ground; capitalised on a career-low mark with a comfortable success at Pontefract (1m, good to firm; first-time blinkers) last month; back up 5lb and he's yet to prove himself over this longer trip. |
12/1 |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |

Multiple winner at up to 8.5f on good or slower; on the slide in three starts this season but this combination of a drop in grade and new headgear may prompt a resurgence; return to shorter is also a plus; shortlisted. |

6th 9 (7) |
15th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Finished last at Newcastle (7f, AW) last time but pulled hard off a slow pace; this hold-up horse was progressive previously and has won this year at York (7f, good to soft) and Haydock (7f, good to firm); each-way possible. |
14/1 |

12th 9 (11) |
22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Making good progress in 7f handicaps this year, beating 18 rivals at York in May and then picking up best to win at Haydock 12 days ago (Boardman second); this is tougher but on the up; well held in one AW run but it was after six months off. |

1st 7 (4) |
12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made a pleasing start to his career when winning a Doncaster maiden (7f, good to soft; 7-2) in May, but only fourth under a penalty at Wetherby next time and has since bombed out (last of six) on fast ground at Newmarket (1m; on handicap debut); questions to answer. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Very up and down this year, with his stand-out efforts at Ripon (wins over 1m2f on good/soft); down the field at Musselburgh last time but a case can be made if he reproduces this season's best form; ran fairly well here last September; not discounted. |
11/1 |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Ripon (1m2f, good) in June and, bar a blip here last month, he's continued in good form; returned to winning ways at Ripon (1m2f, soft) 11 days ago and he could play another leading role. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (6) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Dug in to repel Qitaal over C&D (good; from 5lb lower) in June and lost out narrowly to stablemate Poet's Dawn back here the following month; met with trouble at Musselburgh (1m1f, selling handicap) latest; Rhys Elliott takes off 3lb. |
