23rd Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Tumbled down the weights last year before undergoing wind surgery; was inclined to pull hard and didn't see it out on his Tapeta comeback, and the suspicion is he'll be back at some point. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-time C&D winner; easing mark and back to form, just held by U Sure Do over C&D (good; 25-1) under four weeks ago; is capable of handling easier ground, and well drawn close to the stands' rail in stall 10; stablemate of William Dewhirst. |

2nd 9 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Six-time course winner but well held in his three runs this year and latest was over C&D (good to soft) last month; has form figures of 1242 in this race in the last four years but he needs to turn things around off a sliding mark. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Veteran with 18 wins on his CV, including over C&D; last success was from the front at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May but he's been well held in both runs since; bit to prove again but has possibilities if he can bounce back. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Standing dish at Ripon, where he's recorded ten of his 12 wins; his 71st start is his first here; below par in both starts this season; drops 2lb but perhaps needs further favours from the handicapper to win again. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ten-time course winner who ended last season with two wins (6f/5f) at Ripon; struggled on Thirsk reappearance last month but he doesn't have a great record when fresh and he's not ruled out back at his favoured track; acts on good to firm and soft. |
11/2 |
|
15th 2 (2) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Best known as a Ripon specialist with ten wins there, including his last two starts of 2025; has won fresh, but has tended to need his reappearance in recent years. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Came from well back when capitalising on reduced mark at Redcar (6f, good) in September, but some way below par at Nottingham next time; others make more appeal. |

22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb

Just 1lb higher than when winning at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) in July and runner-up on soft ground last season; however, he's been well beaten on his last four starts, the latest here yesterday. |
50/1 |

11th 1 (9) |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Record of 0-12 this term but has frame possibilities on recent form and win possibilities provided his game is raised a touch; still 13lb below last winning mark. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ended 2024 with a pair of soft-ground 6f wins at Catterick, the second of them off 13lb higher; handicapper has held the upper hand this year but conditions will suit and he helps form a strong hand for Tim Easterby. |

17th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Back to form when second over C&D nine days ago on his first run for 11 weeks; likely he'll need more in this field but he was rated much higher when starting out for this yard last spring. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
8th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made an encouraging return to the AW when beaten 2l into fifth of 12 here (6f) in November, but would like to have seen more from him at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) 11 days later; losing run up to 19 and others preferred. |
