24th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Not seen over hurdles since scoring at Perth (2m) last July but he comes here fit from the Flat and was also a good second on this card 12 months ago; considered. |
5/1 |

6th 8 (7) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Plentiful form at Musselburgh with three C&D wins, including last August for his only Flat win last year (4lb higher today); never dangerous when 50-1 for reappearance here two weeks ago but showed promise from out the back and could be a lot more potent this time. |

26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
The standout in-form candidate after front-running efforts on last three starts brought two 1m2f Beverley wins and a short-head defeat off this mark in blanket finish over Musselburgh's 1m4f; should go very well again. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
11th Aug 2023 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Prominent racer; feasibly weighted seeking a hat-trick after back-to-back Beverley wins (1m2f; has risen a combined total of 5lb); the stable is going really well, he's versatile ground wise, and this sharp track should suit; enthusiasm is tempered by inconclusive stamina over 1m4f. |

21st Aug 2023 Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft) last September and she returned to form with a very close third at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) ten days ago; she's one to consider under the promising Jack Nicholls. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 6 (1) |
11th Aug 2023 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft) last September, and she's been operating near that level in her last three starts; these improved terms offer a chance to take revenge over Simple Star (Hamilton) and Gibside (York), and she has a good record under the returning Paul Mulrennan. |

16th Oct 2023 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has won here five times on the Flat (1m4f/1m5f) and once over hurdles (1m7f); patchy form of late and below par here most recently, while she needs to prove her stamina, but she can't be ruled out given her record here. |

28th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Inconsistent last season and tailed off over C&D when last seen; however, he's posted wins over C&D on two of his last four starts (good to soft/good) and can be bang there if at the top of his game on this return. |

26th Oct 2024 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Six-time Flat winner at up to 1m4f; underwent breathing operation before going hurdling for current yard and has now had another, having underperformed in handicap on this course in September; new headgear combination today. |
16/1 |
|
8th 2 |
18th Sep 2024 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won five Flat races at up to 1m4f for the Johnstons (latest win for Anthony Charlton was on snow); had wind surgery before running two creditable races over hurdles this summer, last time finishing third in a maiden at Perth (2m, good; pulled quite hard); interesting on handicap debut. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Multiple Flat winner at up to 12.5f (stays 1m6f; RPR 90); not without support when 15-2 on his hurdling debut at Cartmel (2m1f, soft; first-time tongue-tie) last month, when unable to get in a serious blow; no surprise if he shows improvement. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Strong finish from rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 3lb higher and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his four efforts this season a long way behind him, however. |
20/1 |

6th 10 (11) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Strong finish from the rear secured the Chester Plate (2m2f, good) last May off 1lb higher than today and he also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his three efforts this season a long way behind him, latest when not faring nearly so well with the draw back in Chester Plate, and others have more pressing claims. |
25/1 |
|
14th 12 (16) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Strong finish from the rear secured this prize last year (good ground) off 1lb lower than today, but also from stall 4 compared to today's stall 16; also won over 1m4f on soft at Catterick in October; needs to leave his two efforts this season (1m4f, good) a long way behind him but this may be a much more favourable scenario if the draw does not scupper him. |

3rd 4 (1) |
10th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Began the season with two heavy defeats but he bounced back to form when scoring at Redcar a fortnight ago (1m6f, good to firm; cheekpieces back on); consistency hasn't been his strong suit so no guarantee he'll be in the same form; non-runner at Thirsk yesterday. |
2/1 |
|
1st 7 (3) |
26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win came at Doncaster (2m Class 5, good to firm) in April 2022, although he did also go close at Thirsk (2m) later in the season; bit to prove after finishing down the field in his two outings this year. |
