9yo who needs to produce more than he's managed the last twice but before those he was a creditable fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not written off. |

Cheekpieces on for the first time when ending a long losing sequence at Ayr (6f) in July; backed it up with a good third of 11 at Hamilton (5f) a week ago; must enter calculations back up to 6f with headgear retained. |

Spent most of a long career racing at shy of 1m and didn't look to see it out in one try over this far (C&D); not as good now and can miss the break and/or pull hard, so comes with risks attached. |

Some good runs in defeat this April-July and he's well treated on that form; however, this 8yo wasn't performing at the same level in the second half of the summer and needs to raise his game back from a two-month break. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth, nearest at the finish, to Hallowed Time in this last year; back with James Owen again and arrives in the midst of a productive spell, recent second-place finishes (visored) to add to earlier wins at Yarmouth and Brighton (7f); can often miss the break though, which isn't ideal at Chester. |

Nine of his ten wins have been on turf and he came from off the pace when good second off this mark at Brighton (6f; first-time visor) last month; has claims if he can repeat that form but he's 1-12 on AW and that success was in a claimer. |

Conditions to suit and he bounced back to form with a come-from-behind success over C&D eight weeks ago; met plenty of trouble on that occasion and looks good value for the 3lb rise; won this race off the same mark 12 months ago; one of four runners for the stable; would be suited by a strong pace. |

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. |

Missed 2025 but ran well when second of seven over this C&D in March on his first start for 702 days; struggled on his next two starts but returned to form when going close at Ffos Las (5f) nine days ago; this dual C&D will be suited by the return to this trip and has strong claims. |

9st 11lb |
Gained four of his eight wins over this C&D; made the frame off today's mark on consecutive starts at Carlisle last month (7f, soft/1m, good) and is sure to be suited by the return to this track; respected. |

Better strike-rate on turf than AW and beaten in a C&D classified on latest AW start; two midfield finishes on turf have followed, the latest on Monday, and others appeal more for win purposes. |

24th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

Has been a grand servant to the yard with two of his nine wins coming over C&D; latest success came at Ayr (5f, good to firm) last month and he should not be far away. |

Scored over C&D (fifth course victory) in July and not discredited with fourth of six in 5f classified event at Wolverhampton ten day ago; very much one to consider back here. |

All his seven victories have come on the AW but he wasn't discredited with fourth of ten in 6f Newmarket handicap 15 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb. |

Multiple AW winner; has shown most of his turf form at Ayr, not disgraced last time; 0-22 in this sphere, so the booking of Oisin Murphy (up for first time) needs to make a significant difference. |

Useful on AW on his day but 0-21 on turf; handicapped accordingly but his latest C&D 12th didn't suggest he was the answer to today's puzzle. |

Completed a Musselburgh hat-trick last summer; back in form this month, finishing 1l second to stablemate Monhammer over C&D then third at Ayr where she hung right; not ruled out. |

3rd 9 (10) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins at Musselburgh last summer and she returned to form with a creditable second behind her stablemate there (7f, good) on Friday; this is a deeper race but her last win was off a higher mark and she has won at Ayr in the past; respected. |
