6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Handled testing conditions best, bounding clear to make it 2-3 over C&D (soft; a 23l winner) four weeks ago; the handicapper has reacted, and he's now 9lb higher moving up into a Class 4; still enters calculations though, with 10lb claimer Gregor Walkingshaw retaining the ride. |

9th May 2026 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

Not really firing on all cylinders when last seen in the winter but returns from 12-week break on a good mark and is versatile regarding ground; gained his only hurdle win over C&D; no surprise if he features. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Five-time Flat winner who has a consistent profile over hurdles; handles soft ground but has a bit to find with He's Bresilian on last month's Ayr form. |

15th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Disappointing sort who ended up 12l behind King's Scholar here last time, following wind surgery; now has a tongue-tie (tried on final start last term) and first-time blinkers. |
25/1 |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-7 last year and has weakened quickly on both runs this term; however, a wind operation may have done the trick and his good course form and a dangerous mark suggest he's worth a second look. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won over C&D (Class 5, good; same mark) last July; has mixed hurdling with Flat racing this year and wasn't beaten far when third over C&D (good; 7-1, Just Dottie fifth) 25 days ago; highly likely to give his running, even though he isn't a frequent winner. |
7/2 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Good fourth at Musselburgh in March but tailed off in his last run over hurdles and down the field on the Flat last week; others look more likely. |
10/1 |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Tailed off over hurdles last time but ran well in that code in March; he's on a handy mark on last year's best Flat form; not ruled out. |

9st 6lb |
Made a winning start for current yard at Ripon (2m) in June but her form has dipped recently, only sixth in 1m6f Newmarket handicap 29 days ago; she needs to bounce back. |
10/1 |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won a four-runner race on stable debut at Ripon (2m) in June but that's her best run this year; probably okay on soft ground but soundly beaten on heavy on latest outing; back to her last winning mark. |

13th Sep 2024 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Seen almost twice as often on the AW but had an impressive win on good to firm last August; did well over 2m on AW last winter, notably for an easy Kempton win, but he failed to fire in an AW Championships race next time and finished last in the Chester Cup in May latest; very mixed messages. |
40/1 |

10th May 2024 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Seen twice as often on the AW but had an impressive win on good to firm last August; does not always fire, for instance in AW Championships race at Newcastle on latest outing, but he looks good on his day and the ease of his 2m win on Kempton AW in February can't be forgotten (6lb higher today); this unusual test might just take his fancy. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner; on a losing run of 17 but was seemingly perked up by refitted cheekpieces when third here (1m7f, soft; just behind La Tosca) last month and competes off another career-low mark today. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 7 (9) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won over C&D in 2024 and is well handicapped on some of last year's placed efforts; yet to strike form after two starts this year but is of renewed interest now that tongue-tie and cheekpieces are refitted; versatile regarding ground; dangerous to ignore. |
20/1 |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
9yo who went 0-11 last year and was soundly beaten on last month's reappearance at Catterick; however, he may have needed that latest run and is on a competitive mark judged on last season's placed form. |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Scored over C&D in January off just 1lb lower; absent since a heavy defeat over hurdles in May but the January win came after a 95-day break; visor the headgear of choice today; more appealing than many. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Seen only once over hurdles since 2023, when pulled up last summer, and his AW win in January came in a low-grade handicap; needs to prove he can still be competitive off a mark this high over jumps. |
