10st 0lb |
Six-time turf winner, who ran into some trouble when a creditable second at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) last month; this is a deeper race but she's unexposed on AW and has not had many chances at this trip; respected. |

0-7 and generally disappointing on turf for new stable this year; needs to up her game to land this prize and her only previous AW experience was a down-the-field finish on Dundalk's Polytrack in 2021. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who was well beaten in the John Smith's Cup at York last month but won two in a row here (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and continued in good form until his blip last time; not ruled out now back here. |
12/1 |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and creditable fifth in the Northumberland Plate a fortnight ago (2m, AW); he's a 9yo who has never won off a mark this high but is versatile in terms of trip and ran well over C&D last month; not ruled out each-way. |
22/1 |

5th 7 (2) |
28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |

Third and sixth in last two runnings of the C&D Vase on this card; in the groove with successive wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f) this May; however, he's been held off this mark when back up to Class 2 in his three starts since, still in form but suggesting that others will have the edge today. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 4 |

Disappointing favourite in this race last year but he does stay the trip and acts on heavy going; Thirsk in May saw his first win since 2022 but he's underperformed on last four outings; the last two were admittedly on AW and he's back to that last winning mark. |

27th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Improved middle-distance handicapper in 2022, on turf and AW, including C&D; not picked up again this year and way below form at Ascot last time but at least he's 7lb lower than when reappearing in a valuable C&D handicap in April; not ruled out back on AW; regular tongue-tie discarded. |
6/1 |

9th 11 (3) |
12th Aug 2023 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |

Improvement peaked with his win in this race last year (good to firm); just 1lb higher today and he was a respectable third on soft ground at Ripon on latest outing, with his tongue tied for the second time, so he needs a second look. |

1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Stays a deal further but has always liked it here and has run well a couple of times over C&D this year; a good pace would help but finished behind Say What You See on turf last time and others hold stronger claims. |
12/1 |
|
7th 12 (1) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Absent 348 days before last September but usually competitive since regaining his fitness and went down by a head last month on latest outing; tenth in this race in 2024 on his only appearance at Musselburgh but he's firmly in the mix on other counts. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual course winner (1m4/2m) who is just 1lb higher than when successful at Redcar (1m6f, good) in December, but his last two efforts over C&D suggest he needs a return to further. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 3 |

Remains capable at the age of 10 (won on the Flat in October) but it's been hard work back over hurdles, albeit in a pair of Class 2 handicaps; looks vulnerable. |
14/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Useful dual-purpose performer in his youth; had a long spell on the sidelines prior to his return in February and he's struggled on the Flat and over hurdles this year; down in the weights and he was prominent in the betting last time so he can't be dismissed. |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |

0-7 last year and has weakened quickly on both runs this term; however, a wind operation may have done the trick and his good course form and a dangerous mark suggest he's worth a second look. |

0-17 on AW but he returned to form with a staying-on third here (1m6f) last month; now drops back in trip but he's 1lb lower than last time and has possibilities if this sets up for his closing style; visor reapplied. |
