26th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Three more wins this year (including C&D on soft) and last Saturday's sixth of 23 in the Silver Cup at Ayr was another creditable effort (second of 12 in his group); the fact he's finished in the first three (including four wins) on eight of his ten visits to Haydock makes him a must for the shortlist. |
5/1 |

6th 12 (23) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Respectable but unavailing effort in the Bronze Cup two years ago; in marvellous form this year, adding three wins at 5f (soft and good to soft), but he couldn't pull off another one at Haydock recently off a career-high mark; has more to do back at 6f. |
12/1 |

2nd 6 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has 48 runs under his belt but amazingly is better than ever and was winning his third race of the year at Beverley (5f, soft) last week; on a career-high mark now but this course specialist made it 2-3 over C&D in May and further rain will make no difference; no ifs or buts and can put up a good show. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Justified favouritism at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) recently and remains well treated back up just 2lb; however, her last four wins have come at the same venue and she has something to prove on her first run here. |
8/1 |
|
1st 5 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Often leads and her last three wins have been over C&D, including in this race last year; finished down the field in last four runs but this is a drop back in grade and she's now 7lb lower than for her last success; one to keep an eye on. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Placed just a couple of times this term; remains on a long losing sequence, unlike fellow 9yo Impressor, but can't be dismissed off current mark; won a better race on this card two years ago. |
10/1 |

17th 19 (19) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Placed twice in Class 6 last month but failed to live up to market expectations at Carlisle last week, extending his long losing run; this 9yo needs to raise his game, back up in grade. |
14/1 |
|
7th 9 (4) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Can lead; the latest of his nine wins came in Hamilton handicap (5f, soft) in September 2024 and that was off a mark 24lb higher than today's; solid third behind Royal Duke over this C&D two weeks ago and the recent rain will be in his favour; cheekpieces return for the first time since 2022 and he's respected. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Losing run goes back 14 races to May 2025 but he was a good fourth over C&D (heavy) last month and wasn't seen to best effect at Chester (6f, heavy) subsequently; not written off now back here. |
14/1 |

6th 14 (6) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
A four-time 5f scorer for Iain Jardine; yet to add to that for his current handler but much better signs after five months off with fourth of 11 in 5f Haydock handicap (heavy) 15 days ago; goes well on soft ground and a likely player. |
12/1 |
|
4th 12 (7) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
He has no problem with soft ground but hasn't scored since last May and there were diminishing returns in four starts for this yard earlier in the year; career-low mark, however, and maybe a 147-day break will have chalked his cue; watch the market. |

C&D winner as a 3yo who'll appreciate any rain; starts the season on a handy mark but will need to be right on his game after seven months off. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

Down the field over C&D (heavy) last month but returned to form with close second at Chester (5f, heavy) last time; has won here three times and she's not discounted. |
14/1 |

2nd 7 (11) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win over C&D off a 4lb lower mark in July (good; well drawn) and good third here next time (good); hasn't done as well since and double-figure draw a negative. |
14/1 |

8th 2 (10) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Course regular whose 16 starts here have yielded three wins and a further six placings; registered two good efforts either side of making all at Chester (5f, good) in July; not so good at Catterick last Wednesday but has won on soft and can't be ruled out. |

Ended 2024 with a pair of soft-ground 6f wins at Catterick, the second of them off 13lb higher; handicapper has held the upper hand this year but conditions will suit and he helps form a strong hand for Tim Easterby. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two wins at Catterick (5f, good to firm/good) this summer and he's run some good races since (including on sot ground), most recently runner-up at Redcar (5f, good); has won over C&D and he's in with a chance. |

Bagged a pair of 5f Catterick handicaps in the summer and has mostly remained in form; took a bump at the start when only mid-field at Ripon last week; may well bounce back with a tongue-strap refitted. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Bagged a pair of 5f Catterick handicaps in the summer and comes here on the back of a solid third of nine over C&D last month; also took this prize in 2024 so he's well in the mix eased 1lb. |
