7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ran with credit when fourth of nine at Yarmouth (1m6f, soft) last month and does handle testing ground, but looks better on a faster surface; 5lb lower than for the latest of two wins around this time last year and one for the shortlist. |

10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 17y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Had 1m4f and 1m6f wins on consecutive starts last summer and she's now 4lb below her last winning mark; couldn't reach the leaders when fifth of ten at Bath (1m6f; good to firm) 19 days ago but she won't mind this slower ground and could go well. |

Had 1m4f and 1m6f wins on consecutive starts last summer and she's now 2lb below her last winning mark; following two respectable shows over 1m4f this term, she is one to take seriously on this return to 1m6f. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Five-runner race at Carlisle (1m3f) last Saturday was first win since 2023 and she's a dependable sort who finished a C&D second (twice) and fourth in July 2024 and 2025 on her only three appearances at York; going back up 5lb since Carlisle seems to pose the difficulty but she should be on the premises. |
13/2 |

1st 3 (5) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Five-time winner who hasn't won since 2023 but she's run with credit on many subsequent occasions, including on her only visit here when second under Joanna Mason in this race last year; back in form on her last two starts and she's in calculations. |
4/1 |

4th 3 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
No win since completing a three-timer at 1m4f-2m in the autumn of 2023; however, she ran her best race of the year when going close at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last month; has a good run in her back up in trip. |

29th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Defied long absence to win on stable debut (1m6f, AW) last November and returned from break with close third at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) last month; has gone very close over 2m in the past; one to be interested in. |
11/2 |

3rd 2 (8) |
31st May 2023 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Long absence before Wolverhampton win (1m6f, AW) in November on stable debut; below form at Chelmsford in December after racing too freely; lightly raced but his solitary run on turf was satisfactory debut in 2019. |
9/1 |

17th Feb 2023 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Returned from long absence to win quite comfortably at Wolverhampton (1m6f) on stable debut in November; well below that form after racing too freely over same C&D in December and not an easy one to predict here but today's trip/surface combination won't be a problem and he's still lightly raced for his age. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won two in a row on turf last August and latest was off 2lb lower; generally disappointing since last success but he made some late headway when fourth at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) last month; that was more like it and he has each-way claims if he can build on that. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Made light of a lengthy absence when winning over C&D (good to soft; made most) from Locked Down Lad and Highbury Hill in November but he couldn't repeat the form at Fontwell (about 2m1f, heavy; has form on that surface) last month; well worth another chance back over C&D. |

21st Jul 2023 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |

Started out in bumpers and was well held in his first six starts but he shaped with promise when a fading fourth in a Leicester handicap (1m4f, good) last month; wasn't beaten far in that race and could be dangerous if he can build on that back in trip; all of his turf runs have been on good/good to firm. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |

Easily landed an amateur riders' event at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in March and wasn't beaten far into fourth of 12 in a similar contest at Ripon (1m4f, good) last time, but he still needs more in order to come out best here. |

Sole turf win in this race last year; in reasonable form on AW at Southwell in the spring but his first run since wind surgery, on Newcastle AW, was a poor effort. |
