Winless on turf since July, 2022, and he came in just a fair fifth of eight in 5f Yarmouth handicap last time; more is needed. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
6-21 on AW as opposed to 0-16 on turf; the handicapper has been in command so far this year but he is edging down the weights and may yet come good on grass; refused to race in last season's Ayr Silver Cup. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
6-21 on AW but still seeking a first turf win after 15 attempts; latest Thirsk fourth (6f, good to firm) as good as anything he's produced on the grass but may find at least the odd one too strong again. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has a better strike-rate on the AW and his last turf win was over two years ago; finished well when runner-up at Catterick (5f, good) in May but he's been quiet since and reared at the start when down the field at Ayr last time; others preferred. |

16th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Veteran who has run a couple of good races this winter, including his third of eight over C&D ten days ago; a bit more will be needed to record his 11th career success. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won this on soft in 2023 but her best form this summer has been on good to firm, winning either side of a very good second of 26 at the big Goodwood meeting in July; well below best back on soft in August and might prefer quicker ground these days. |

Likes a strong pace to chase and won in spite of that here 12 days ago, enhancing her good record at the track; just 2lb higher. |

Won by a length under Cara Tuke over C&D last week (good to soft) and escapes a penalty for that; that was a return to form and she can put a sequence of solid efforts together. |

18th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made all for clearcut C&D win off 1lb lower in October and did well to finish fourth at Wolverhampton three weeks ago, given he was slowly away and encountered traffic in the straight; could be very hard to catch if he breaks on terms from stall 1 today. |
6/4 |
