22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed five tims this season but his losing run stretches back over two years and he wasn't at his best at Redcar when last seen eight weeks ago; on a dangerous mark but others appeal more for win purposes. |
13/2 |

30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Latest of his three wins came at Beverley (8.5f, soft) over two years ago but he's been placed on five occasions this year; below his best at Ayr (7f, good) 16 days ago and he now goes back up to 1m with the headgear removed. |

9th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Not beaten far when fifth at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April but this 8yo has struggled on his three starts since; others preferred. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
2-42; slipped leaving the stalls over C&D last time but, while that's easily excused, hasn't been shaping like a winner waiting to happen either; it's possible that with a clear run, he might have sneaked into the frame at Wetherby (7f) in April; others more obvious. |

17th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

Successful over 7f on AW and 1m2f here this term; form has dipped since the latter win, however. |
12/1 |

5th 3 (8) |
15th Jul 2023 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Resumed winning ways at Ayr (1m2f) in May but he's been well below par since, only tenth at Musselburgh (9f) ten days ago; he needs to get back on track. |
10/1 |

10th 7 (2) |
5th Jul 2023 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won for the second time on turf at Ayr (1m2f, good) in May but despite that form looking solid enough, he's been some way below that in two subsequent starts; bit to prove dropping slightly in trip. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Showed benefit of latest wind op when winning twice at around 2m in February (good to soft/soft); slightly disappointing on latest outing in April, though, and needs to be back in peak form to have a chance off current mark. |
8/1 |

24th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
A dual 2m winner and progressive over hurdles this season but he failed to translate that form back onto the Flat at Doncaster last month; he's the sort to bounce back here though. |

25th May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Won a Flat race in 2023 but is 0-21 over hurdles; tailed off on last two starts, admittedly in a maiden last time after four months off but he does not look a solid option; tongue tied first time. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
11yo who was a close third over 1m1f at Ayr two starts ago and is versatile trip-wise; however, Ayr brings out the best in him and he was well beaten at Musselburgh last time; 0-4 here, with last visit coming last June. |
25/1 |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran who has won at this track but who is better known for his exploits at Ayr; solid third at that track 16 days ago (1m1f, good to firm); shouldn't be far away if backing it up. |
4/1 |

3rd 7 (3) |

Veteran who has won 11 times here, including three last year (1m2f/1m5f); on a good mark and should come on for his run at Musselburgh last week; contender. |

6th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Has done most racing this year over 1m and hasn't looked to see it out in a couple of runs over middle distances; long odds-on to blow the start and there are risks involved from 2lb out of the handicap. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
8yo who is 0-9 this year but he's run some good races, most recently third at Hamilton (1m, soft) off 2lb higher, and he won this 12 months ago (good); there's every chance he'll be thereabouts. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 6 (5) |
29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Nine-time winner (five times here) who won't mind what the weather does; yet to hit the target this season, though, and both runs this month have been disappointing; others have less to prove. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
21st Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up twice this summer but form dipped last time; the 8yo is a five-time course winner and could go well returned to Hamilton. |
