Lightening Company

9st 2lb

J: Harry Vigors

T: Ben Haslam

Won 1m4f/1m2f handicaps here in April, latterly under Harry Vigors off 2lb lower; then struggled at York's Dante meeting; back from a break with a second over hurdles last month; might just be vulnerable against rivals with lower mileage.

J: Kevin Brogan

T: Ben Haslam

Dual C&D winner (good/soft); returned to form with two Flat wins in April, but was soundly beaten when back over hurdles here in June and contests a much stronger race today.

11st 13lb

J: Mr James Murray

T: Ben Haslam

Has been running on the Flat, winning 1m4f/1m2f handicaps before a respectable effort in a competitive race at York; capable hurdler with winning form here and James Murray takes off a useful 7lb.

8st 10lb

J: Andrew Mullen

T: Ben Haslam

Form figures of 5075 at this meeting in the last four years; one win a season had previously appeared his quota but he's already exceeded that in 2026, having scored at Pontefract (1m4f/1m2f) on last two outings; that demands some respect but this race is a higher grade.

Lightening Company

9st 8lb

J: Harry Vigors

T: Ben Haslam

Four-time Flat winner, including C&D, who has been all or nothing since scoring over hurdles at Cartmel in July; three AW no-shows followed good second over C&D (soft; 40-1) in October but market support predicted a going day when scoring here (1m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; might not want the ground to get too quick but otherwise a key player under 2lb nudge.
