Resurgent 8yo who has won over C&D in two of his last three runs including a emphatic success two weeks ago; 6lb higher here but he remains well treated on old form and seven of his last eight wins have come at Newcastle; key player. |

Dual C&D winner who is back to the mark he was successful from at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; fair fourth over C&D 19 days ago; sports first-time cheekpieces on this 107th start and he warrants consideration. |

Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; only 2lb higher here, but has mixed record since that last success and he was down the field at Beverley last time; others are more persuasive. |

Beaten on his last 16 starts going back to March 2022; however, having dropped down the weights he's been in good form of late and was second off this mark at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last time; could be thereabouts. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
8yo who hasn't been at his best on his last three starts, most recently 8l third of seven over C&D (soft; has won on such ground over C&D); however, he has a solid record at Goodwood and is 3lb lower than when runner-up here (7f, good) in May; not ruled out. |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Two-time course winner, including this trip on soft, and he is on a manageable mark; his form has dipped on his last two starts and he may need slower ground at this trip. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Best with positive tactics, as when leading until well inside final 1f at Goodwood in May; only tenth at Epsom on Oaks day but that was a warm race and he's had a break since; goes well on soft ground; possibilities. |

One-time useful sprinter but his powers are on the wane; showed he could still cut it at this level when a close fourth over C&D last month but he'll need the pace to collapse if he's to end his barren spell. |

Retains plenty of vitality aged ten and gamely made all over C&D (soft) last Monday, registering a tenth win at Hamilton; should remain competitive kept to this scenario, even with a 4lb penalty. |

1st 5 (6) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |

Multiple course wins and he was a close third of 11 over this C&D (good to soft) in August; well below best in two starts since, in first-time cheekpieces in the Bronze Cup at Ayr on Friday, but he's hard to rule out back on this track; further rain probably not helpful though. |

Seven times a course winner; 40-1 for last week's stable debut at Windsor (after 232 days off) and could only manage ninth but that hardly tells the story as he was stuck behind a wall of horses for most of the straight; good mark and one to take seriously. |

Only 4-46 but two of those wins have come in his last four races; stayed on best over 5f at Nottingham last week (good to soft) and returning to 6f if anything is a positive; Toby Moore takes over, so effectively he's 4lb lower; clear claims, especially should it get wet (fine on good). |

Ended a long losing run when running away with a 6f classified event here (soft) in June; suffered a troubled run through over 6f here last week, his first start for 114 days, and he should be in the thick of the action here granted any luck in running. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

A string of good runs at Brighton before collecting by 3l over C&D in a race that panned out to perfection; bled from the nose when disappointing at Brighton last time but he's 7lb higher than for his penultimate run and could have competition for the lead back on AW. |

Eight-time winner with six on turf and two on Tapeta; his last success was at Ripon (6f, good) three weeks ago and he ran respectably back at 5f at Pontefract last time; remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher than for that recent win and he's in the mix back up in trip. |
