28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f) in July but well below par both runs since and he failed to beat a rival in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last time; needs to take a major step forward. |
33/1 |
|
14th 10 (13) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
0-5 at Ripon but he has run well here; back near his best when seeing off 16 rivals at Ayr last month but a subsequent Hamilton run (5f) was underwhelming; still feasibly weighted despite being 1lb wrong but he is another who would make more appeal on a slower surface. |
16/1 |

10th 10 (2) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Running well this year, including close third to Vantheman over C&D in May, and he posted a deserved win in a big field at Ayr (6f, good) 26 days ago; raised 5lb but he was very competitive off similar marks in 2024. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Made all up the stands' rail when springing a 40-1 surprise in this race in 2024; added another major handicap when dominating last year's Wokingham; failed to beat a rival in his next three starts though (including in this race) and he has been absent for 314 days; his draw gives him the chance to repeat the heroics of 2024 but this looks a tough assignment on his return. |
16/1 |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Over two years since he last ran on the AW but that made it 2-2 at Wolverhampton; won last year's Stewards' Cup and this year's Wokingham, so clearly a tip-top handicapper when on his game; found the ground too slow in last month's big handicap at Goodwood but his run back there last time is not so easily forgiven. |
16/1 |

24th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Had an excuse (ground not fast enough) last time when failing by a long way to complete Stewards' Cup double; made all at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in his other two British runs this term, including the Wokingham; very useful handicapper when conditions are ideal. |

30th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well handicapped on his Yarmouth win (5f, good to soft) last summer but he has a mixed record this season and has finished down the field in last two runs; losing run is now up to 11 and others are more solid. |

4th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Smart in his prime and he retained sufficient ability to win a Salisbury handicap last summer off 13lb higher; not really fired this year though and opposable despite a reduced mark. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (8) |
13th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Veteran who hasn't hit top gear yet in 2024 but who is eligible for Class 6 company as a result; other pace to deal with here and could prove vulnerable once again. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
18th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Veteran with just one win to his name in the last three years; that came off a 6lb higher mark but he wasn't near his best on last month's seasonal return; step forward is required. |

16th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
First two wins over 6f but seen more regularly at 5f now; nearly a year since she won on turf, when impressing at York (good to soft) but her recent run in a fillies' handicap at York was better than it looks at first glance; running into form and can give a good account. |
12/1 |
|
8th 6 (11) |
23rd Aug 2023 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Respectable fifth in both runs since returning from a break; may well raise her game back at York, where she's 1-1 over C&D after a win last October; Listed scorer on AW two starts later; possibilities off a workable mark. |
9/1 |
|
5th 2 (1) |
10th Aug 2023 Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Won handicaps in 2022, over 6f (good) and 5f (good to soft) but her mark took a battering following a Listed AW win on reappearance and she faded back in a handicap at Ascot 12 days ago; might come on for that run after a break but others higher up the list. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Started his campaign with two wins in April, but he's been up and down since and was beaten 9l behind Our Absent Friends at Catterick last time; needs to bounce back again after that and others are more solid. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Started his campaign with two wins in April and there have been plenty of solid runs since; should remain competitive but minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won this last year and kicked off this campaign with two wins in a row, the second of them over C&D; he's run well in defeat over C&D on his last two starts and there's every chance he'll again be bang there. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His losing run is up to 16 and his form has gone the wrong way this year, but he's 3lb lower than when beaten just a neck at Lingfield (5f, AW) in June and he won this race in 2024; not discounted. |
5/1 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winner over this trip but doesn't run over it often now, all starts this year having come over 5f; continues to tumble down the weights but has struggled in two runs back on turf latterly and others make more appeal. |
10/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has six wins to his name but yet to score for his current trainer; best recent effort when runner-up at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month; not out of this. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Dropped in the weights and much more competitive in recent starts, second at Chelmsford and Southwell before finishing third behind Sturlasson back at Southwell two weeks ago; better off at the weights with that rival today but might not reverse the placings. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Her losing run goes back more than a year but she's been running well of late and confirmed her liking for this C&D when losing out narrowly to a well-treated rival (pair well clear) last week; solid claims. |
11/4 |
|
1 (6) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Dropped a long way in the weights this year and she returned to form with a good second at Chelmsford last month (ran without the declared tongue-tie); back up 2lb but still well treated on last season's best; C&D winner; considered. |
