2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Consistent over 5f-6f during summer but yet to win this year and form has dipped lately; will find this easier than latest task and won't mind if the ground softens but younger rivals have more appealing profiles. |

Went close over C&D in a 0-55 handicap in July; placed on his next two starts but underperformed last time and this is a tough task from out of the weights. |

8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has run well over C&D, including when a close third in this race 12 months ago, but the track doesn't always lend itself to his hold-up style; drawn widest and could prove vulnerable, for all he is attractively weighted. |
7/1 |

6th 9 (8) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Pounced to grab Thank The Lord (who, when factoring in riding arrangements, is now 6lb better off) over C&D three starts back; has lacked the pace to stake a claim in two C&D starts since; likely to need everything to fall his way. |
25/1 |

8st 5lb |
Last three wins have come over C&D and latest was off 3lb lower last month; never got involved here last time but that was against a pace bias and he should get a good tow into this race; not ruled out. |

All six wins have come over 5f including two here; has only managed to win one of his last 30 starts and needs to find something extra in the returning visor. |

Has done all his winning over 5f but looked a shade unlucky when staying-on third over C&D on final appearance in May; respected off the same mark. |

Nine-time winner; yet to find his best form in three runs for his new yard but last time was more encouraging and this represents a drop in grade; revival not out of the question. |

28th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

20th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |

Very well treated on form as recent as last July but this 9yo struggled this season on his three runs for Lisa Williamson and it was the same story at Carlisle 12 days ago on his first start for Adrian Nicholls. |

8th Aug 2023 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Only win came in a seller and she hasn't always looked the easiest; generally consistent but she's still to finish placed in a handicap (seven tries) and will need to better her latest effort, back to a visor from cheekpieces. |

28th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Opened her account in a Beverley seller in May and she has continued in good form, fourth of 12 in 5f Beverley handicap ten days ago; she can go well again. |

18th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Two solid efforts in defeat since winning a weak C&D seller in the spring; is one of the likelier winners as long as her inside stall looks alright by this point. |

17th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Former sprinter who's not as good now and has become inconsistent; no problem with an easy, turning 7f when winning on turf in August but this is the first time he's been 1m and his stamina will be tested over a straight course. |

Effective at sprint trips; contrasting performances over 7f at Catterick the last twice, winning a classified event then finishing last of 13 in a handicap; the latest effort tempers enthusiasm. |

Has had plenty of chances since last win in March last year and, although he handles a sound surface, his best efforts and the bulk of his turf wins came on soft/heavy. |

Won this last year off a 9lb higher mark and rarely runs poorly over C&D; he is getting on now, though, and has work to do with a few of these on latest running here. |

20th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Won first two 5f handicaps, in April and May (soft and good to soft), including over C&D; hasn't had a great second half of the year, however, and after running better than the bare result at Ayr last month he was well adrift at Catterick since; could still go well if the mood takes. |
16/1 |

4th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Equally effective over 6f-7f, even though both career wins have come over today's 5f trip (Class 6); lost his way after finishing in the frame in a selling handicap at Hamilton in July, but his latest Ayr effort (ninth of 20; first-time visor) was more encouraging; 2lb above last winning mark. |
20/1 |

9th 12 (9) |
21st Sep 2023 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Couple of Class 6 wins on slow ground in the spring; blew the start and failed to beat a rival when last seen; chance partly depends on whether he breaks better and takes well to new headgear. |
