4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Hamilton (6f, good) last month on second start back from a break and the neck runner-up went one better there next time; he's used to plying to his trade in a lower grade but is not discounted up just 2lb. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Carlisle winner on debut in June 2023 (5f, good to firm); gained another win at Wolverhampton in January (5f) and fair run back on turf when fourth at Pontefract last time (6f); a possible, but perhaps better at shorter. |

9st 2lb |
Only turf win came at Carlisle on debut in June 2023 (5f, good to firm); won again at Wolverhampton in January (5f) but may just need this after 122-day break. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
His form has taken a downturn but he's dropped down the weights and there was some promise in his eighth of 14 at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) last week in reapplied blinkers (retained), when not beaten far despite being denied a clear run; drops in grade here and could have a part to play. |
11/4 |

8th 4 (2) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Six AW runs have yielded four wins, a second and a close fifth (stable debut after a six-month break and off a 7lb higher mark than today's); has blown hot and cold on turf since April but the blinkers worn for his last four wins now return (has raced exclusively in cheekpieces since joining Robert Cowell) and he should make a bold bid to maintain an unbeaten C&D record. |
16/1 |

15th 4 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Form has dipped in last two starts, taking record for current yard to 0-5; doesn't look as if he's about to prevail in this warm affair. |

1st 1 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
A four-time 6f AW scorer in 2025; built on earlier promise to gain a first turf victory in 7f Chester handicap a week ago, making all and drawing right away last 1f for 8l success; major shout under a 5lb penalty. |
5/4 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Four-time AW winner who returned to form on his second run after wind surgery when a front-running second at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month; record of 0-14 on turf but he's 6lb lower than last time and is well handicapped on his second at York last spring; respected. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Well handicapped on peak form and his midfield finish at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in March, on first run after wind surgery, was encouraging; he has a higher mark to contend with back on AW but this represents a drop in class and he shouldn't be underestimated. |

20th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
5f Tapeta winner in autumn but tailed off following a slow start here in November; back on track returned to Southwell last time (fourth won next time) but not certain to back that up. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins on Polytrack (7f/1m) when making all in first-time headgear; currently running well here, however, and he followed a 40-1 second (7f) at the start of last month with a respectable third of 14 (1m) four weeks later; should give it another good go. |
4/1 |

3rd 2 (10) |
29th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won twice on Polytrack for Charlie Johnston; 0-10 for current yard but a repeat of his second over 7f here four weeks ago would see him on the scene; has won at 1m. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 11 (7) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual Polytrack winner (7f/1m) for Charlie Johnston whose form in nine starts for this yard has been patchy; neck defeat over 1m here in May came in a slowly run contest and more will be needed to come out best in this. |
