13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Both wins in 2023, at 1m1f and about 1m2f, but this C&D seemed to just catch her out in May; two good efforts at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) and Pontefract (1m, good) of late but she may need an easier test than this now and would have preferred some rain. |

Record of 0-5 for new stable but shapes as if this belated drop back to 1m is worth exploring; very well handicapped on best form. |

27th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Showed marked improvement to come good at the fifth attempt in a Newcastle handicap (1m2f, AW) last month; bettered that when going close at York (10.5f, good) recently; up another 2lb and should again be thereabouts. |

Soft ground probably not ideal when behind Bosc Girl at Doncaster but the hood was left off for the first time at Newcastle and he won narrowly under a positive ride; only 3lb higher and there's scope for further improvement. |

Five-time Flat winner who is 0-5 over hurdles but ran pretty well when fourth of 11 at Wetherby (2m, soft) on Boxing Day on his first handicap start in this code; today's extra yardage looks a plus and he's in with a chance. |

9st 12lb |
His last win was in July 2022 but he returned to the Flat for new yard with a front-running third at Pontefract (1m2f, good; tongue-tie added) two weeks ago; that was an encouraging effort after a break and he has possibilities if he can build on that. |

3rd 4 (4) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won in France in 2020 and scored over C&D in 2022 but has developed a rocky profile and was in poor form when last seen over hurdles in the autumn; has joined Martin Keighley (same owners) but watching brief advised on this comeback in a tongue-tie. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |

Dropped out of contention rather tamely at Uttoxeter (2m) last week and is now 0-11 over hurdles; has quite a bit to prove on this first venture beyond about 2m1f. |

9st 5lb |
Two wins at Redcar (1m, good to firm/good to soft) last summer, the latest off today's mark; however, it was a tame end to the season and this 8yo needs to get back on track on his reappearance. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Has gained all wins on turf, mostly at Redcar; has gone off the boil since last success and this return to AW seems unlikely to help, with record in this sphere far from solid. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |

Showed his liking for Redcar with C&D wins in June and July; things haven't gone to plan since but he met trouble here in August and a heavy defeat last time came in the Legends race at Doncaster; not inconceivable he'll bounce back. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
11yo who has plenty to prove on the evidence of this year's three runs; however, he's 6lb lower than when winning at Redcar last October and perhaps the return to Carlisle will trigger a revival, with his course form figures reading 4106231. |

Hampered early last time, but unlikely judged on this year's struggles for both her former and current handlers that this would have cost her significantly better; cheekpieces hurriedly replace the visor. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |

Safely held on both recent starts for new stable (2m2f) and now 0-12 over hurdles; faced fairly tough assignment when third of five from out of the weights last time but still needs a boost from the new visor here. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Most of his 14 races at York have been over 7f, including wins in this race in 2024 and another last June; absent since second on AW in January and that's the longest break he's had for two years, which asks a question, but he has to be considered off his last winning mark. |

23rd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Easy to make a case on last year's peak form but signed off with two quiet runs and now back from three months off; not without hope if the break has done him good; has form here. |

11th 7 (7) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Enters the equation on best 7f form this year but his latest run at York, where he often goes well, was a letdown; seems to handle heavy ground, having finished close up in his sole attempt on it, but it's not necessarily a plus and he has a shade to prove now. |
