8st 13lb |
Successful four times over C&D, including in last two starts, beating stablemate Keep Me Stable by 1l latest; this 8yo retains plenty of vitality and is still well handicapped on historical data; beaten in this race for last three years (form figures 002) but warrants respect in current form. |

Won for the fifth time on turf when holding on by a head from Misemerald in a C&D handicap last week (good); not sure to confirm the placings with the second on 4lb worse terms. |

This C&D brings out the best in him and he had a near miss here last month; neither Ayr run this month has been comparable but he should be in the shake up back here. |

11yo who returned to form when third off this mark at Musselburgh (7f, good to soft) last month; also effective on soft ground; patchy profile this year and he likes Musselburgh, but he's not ruled out. |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Gained last five wins on AW but has proved consistent in Scotland since returned to turf; finished 1l second at Ayr (7f) most recently; reasonably solid contender in current form. |

2nd 5 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't won on turf for more than three years but he's run plenty of good races this season including when runner-up over C&D (good to firm) in May and close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) in June; hasn't made an impact in last two runs but this drop back in trip is a positive and he's in the mix. |

9st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner (from lower marks) last autumn; couldn't sustain challenge when third at Redcar (1m, good to firm; 28-1) on penultimate start; lost many lengths at the start, toiling in competitive Class 4 at York latest; task isn't insurmountable. |

Falling in the weights and ran respectably when third to Rajapour at Redcar on Sunday, but the winner bolted up that day and it's hard to see the tables being turned. |

A two-time 1m scorer at Newcastle last autumn; yet to hit top form this season though, only seventh of 14 back over 1m there last month; mark is slipping but he still needs to take a step forward. |
