4th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Fairly useful 1m2f handicapper; won at Yarmouth in July and mostly consistent otherwise this term; remains on career-high mark, however, and this longer distance is an unknown. |

10st 4lb |
Doubled his winning tally when easily disposing of three rivals from the front under Joe Bradnam in an apprentice event at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) seven days ago; still 4lb well in despite a 2lb rise, but ground softer than good would pose a question. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
10-50 turf; made all, clinging on, at Redcar (1m2f, good; 20-1) ten days ago; 3lb higher, but with 3lb claimer Conor Whiteley taking over in the saddle; is better known as a miler, so stamina could be the thorny issue, especially if more rain arrives. |
7/2 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 1m winner in 2025 but yet to hit top form this season, finishing just fourth of six in 1m Pontefract handicap 17 days ago; on a falling mark but more is required. |
10/1 |

Multiple winner over 1m-1m2f; versatile regarding going; 12lb lower than his most recent win at Ripon 13 months ago; plenty to prove based on five of his six starts this season. |

26th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Yet to win in 14 attempts on turf, but has a chance on her C&D second last month (soft); not so good last time, but wouldn't rule out. |
7/1 |
|
6th 11 (8) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner in January and been in good form this summer, reaching the frame again when second at Beverley (1m2f) 12 days ago; likely to be on the premises but suspicion she'll prove vulnerable to at least one of the 3yos in this line-up. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |

Two wins last season, the second over C&D last August off this mark; runner-up on his last three starts, beaten 1.25l by a previous winner over C&D last time; contender. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up twice at Ayr (1m2f, good to firm) last month, losing out only by a neck when clear of third on latter occasion; back in action before 3lb rise takes effect and remains 2lb lower than when winning this race a year ago; good chance. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 5 (8) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Record of 2-37 and both wins came over 1m1f (good) last August; has mixed record this season but he had a close call at Pontefract (1m2f) last month and was runner-up behind a big improver over C&D last Monday; on the same mark here and he's respected. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Unproven on ground softer than good; far from solid on his efforts this term; however, won this race (narrowly) off 1lb higher 12 months ago and has clear possibilities if back in similar form. |
10/1 |

8th 1 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Won at Redcar and Thirsk for today's rider last season (both over 1m on good ground), but hasn't shown the same level of form in two runs this term; conditions suit and back on last winning mark. |
20/1 |

8th 3 (1) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Continues to tumble down the weights and he's one to watch in the betting in a first-time tongue-tie, but he's been well beaten on all three starts this season and a major turnaround is required. |
16/1 |
|
11th 8 (5) |
11th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained both wins over C&D but seems badly to have lost his way since his dead-heat here last June; well-beaten 50-1 shot on both appearances this year; considered only if much stronger in the betting today. |
12/1 |
|
14th 11 (4) |
14th May 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |

Both wins at Ripon (1m, good to firm), the latest from 5lb higher last summer; hasn't beaten many in his last four starts including on his recent Thirsk reappearance; best watched for now. |

22nd Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Opened his account in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap in May and wasn't disgraced on turf debut when fifth of nine over 1m here 15 days ago; possibilities now upped in trip. |
10/1 |

5th 3 (5) |
7th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Confirmed the promise of some of his novice efforts when scoring on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; raced prominently) latest; 3lb rise looks fair and there could be more to come over this trip. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (8) |
23rd May 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Similar level of form in his last three starts as when fifth of eight in first-time blinkers (now removed) at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) this month; up in trip for handicap debut and dam's side of pedigree suggests he may improve for it; each-way claims. |

3yo maiden; inconsistent this term but, judged on penultimate effort, may benefit from the reapplication of visor; second run for new yard. |
12/1 |
|
9th 7 (6) |
16th Sep 2023 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Eight-race maiden who goes without headgear for this stable debut, having returned to form in a first-time visor when fifth of 15 at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last month on her final outing for Hugo Palmer (sold for 11,500gns); however, Ed Dunlop and Sophie Smith combine well and she's not ruled out. |

5th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-bumper horse; had wind surgery in March; has improved since going handicapping with fair efforts at Beverley (7.5f, good to soft) and Musselburgh (7f, good) last month; further progress likely, particularly back over 1m; a possible. |
6/1 |

4th 2 (6) |
11th Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 33y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Well beaten over 1m2f on handicap debut in June but looked suited by drop in trip when third at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) ten days ago; ideally needs to learn to settle better in the early stages but could still have a bigger run in him. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
1st Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Maiden who offered hope when second of six in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f, AW) in February but not built on it since, including on handicap debut after four months off at Ripon (9.7f, good; first start since wind surgery) in June; others make greater appeal. |
