2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-time winner with first four on turf and latest four on Tapeta; his last success was by 3l here (9.4f) in December but he's been disappointing in both subsequent runs and needs to bounce back near his best. |
14/1 |

8th 10 (4) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Eight-time winner with first four on turf and last four on Tapeta; his last success was by 3l here (9.4f) last month but he flopped when favourite over C&D ten days ago; a switch to more prominent tactics may have backfired in that race but he needs to bounce back after that disappointing effort. |
9/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 9lb |
In excellent form in refitted visor on Tapata when last seen in spring, winning three in a row (1m-8.6f); has fitness and stamina to prove today but the return to turf on the slow side of good won't be a problem. |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Two wins for Peter Niven this year, the second of them a wide-margin success over C&D in April; unplaced in two turf runs for Roger Fell but could fare better back on AW. |
14/1 |

10th 8 (14) |
4th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Two wins at around 1m on AW this year; 1-22 on turf but he was only beaten a short head at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April (his final start for Peter Niven); seventh of 12 in this grade at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) on stable debut 22 days ago; place chance. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ended 2025 below par and yet to hit top form this season, well held in 7f Catterick handicap last time; this course winner needs to take a big step forward. |
33/1 |
|
10th 14 (13) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Three-time C&D winner who may have needed last month's reappearance run at Thirsk, but this 10yo was soundly beaten and his sole win last season came in a classified race (C&D); others are more compelling. |
25/1 |
|
13th 10 (11) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Course winner but he ended last season with a poor effort in 7f Newcastle handicap; this veteran has gone well fresh though, so is no forlorn hope on his reappearance. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Enthusiastic front-runner who shone for Ruth Carr in 2025, winning five 6f handicaps (including a defeat of Jonny Concrete here on good to firm); creditable in-frame efforts on two of three starts this year without necessarily suggesting he's ready to strike again. |
14/1 |

4th 3 (7) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Enthusiastic front-runner who shone for Ruth Carr in 2025, winning five 6f handicaps (including here on good to firm); encouraging seasonal return at Catterick (6f, good) last month and likely remains in better form than his subsequent Ripon ninth might suggest as he was second home on his side. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has won three of his 34 races on turf, the latest off this mark at Musselburgh last August (7f, good); should come on for his reappearance run and a possible. |
9/1 |

6th 7 (1) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
He lacks a recent run and was below par more often than not last year; however, he reappears on a handy mark and, with his stable going well, it will be no surprise if this C&D winner is in the mix. |
12/1 |

17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Took advantage of a reduced mark at Musselburgh in August; couple of poor efforts since that win, however, and has proved far from consistent this year. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
1-34 on the AW, that win coming over 6f at Southwell in April 2021; rather out of sorts over 6f-1m this year and now tries 5f for the first time since May 2024. |
33/1 |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Without a victory since 2023 and he has yet to make the frame in seven starts in 2026; hard to warm to. |

23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Minor classified form at 1m, 7f and 6f this year and it's 13 months since he posed a serious threat in a handicap (over 7f at Southwell); up against it. |

9st 4lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run when scoring at Dundalk (1m, Polytrack) last month but he was always out the back in his follow-up bid here (7f) on Saturday; now steps back up in trip but he has something to prove again on this quick turnaround. |

This is her level nowadays but she kept on well to score over C&D a week ago and is effectively only 3lb higher under 4lb penalty; probably won't be far away. |
