17th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Tailed off at Doncaster last time but he reared at the start so has an excuse; prior to that he was a good third at Nottingham (5f, good) and can be in the mix if reproducing that form; ran well on soft last year. |
13/2 |

28th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
5.6f course winner; returned to form when third at Nottingham (5f) last time; however, he could be vulnerable to stronger stayers back up to 6f. |

2nd Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Usually takes a while to come to hand and two runs in Class 5 handicaps this year have seen him finish a modest seventh; conditions won't faze him and he's one to consider for a yard in form. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Back on song when third at Catterick (5f, good to firm) last month and he built on that to win at Ripon (5f, good to firm); he's gone up just 2lb for last time and could be a contender once more. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (6) |

25th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
8yo who is 0-14 this season, with mixed form, but there have been bright points and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; this two-time C&D winner is not discounted. |
5/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
24th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Nine-time turf winner who is well treated on his win at Catterick last spring; has been up and down since but he's finished runner-up four times this year including at Catterick (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; could be dangerous in another switch of headgear. |
10/1 |
|
6th 4 (7) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest C&D second on good to firm shows he's in reasonable form; ought to be in the mix again at a course which suits (four wins) but all nine career successes have come on good or softer. |

24th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
5f winner on soft and acts on heavy; eased down when appearing to lose his action at Redcar (5f, soft) last week; if over that, he's on a competitive mark. |
20/1 |
|
12th 12 (12) |
18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Conditions will suit and he's been running creditably of late, albeit without quite being at his spring best; not sure stall 12 will be beneficial. |
13/2 |
|
4th 8 (2) |
7th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has generally remained in form since his soft-ground success (off 1lb lower) in the spring; did well to make the frame at Catterick last week considering he raced alone; ties in with Alafdhal on that effort. |

19th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Made a winning stable debut at Leicester in May 2022; record since is patchy but she ran well for second behind an unexposed opponent at Southwell when last seen ten weeks ago; races off the same mark today and claims if returning in similar form. |
10/1 |

2nd 6 (5) |
10th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Interesting on her 3yo form, notably a near miss in a big field at York 13 months ago, but she's been out of sorts in four runs this year; too much to prove. |
20/1 |

7th 8 (2) |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

5f AW win in April; hasn't reproduced that in four subsequent turf outings but he's back on that last successful mark and has run well here before. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

5f AW win in April; ran well at Ripon (5f, good) later that month but he has struggled twice since; has a C&D win on his record but others bring more pressing claims. |

17th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
10yo who is without a win on turf since June 2021; it's possible he doesn't want soft/heavy ground nowadays; however, having dropped down the weights he's run well to make the frame on grass the last twice and might not be far away if handling conditions. |
6/1 |

4th 7 (1) |
7th Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Veteran who is usually ridden by Mia Nicholls, whose brother Jack now takes over; ran encouragingly at Ripon (5f, good) most recently but it's three years since his last win on turf; others preferred. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 7 (9) |
5th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
10yo who has been beaten on his last 11 starts; however, he was in fair form on AW this spring prior to Chelmsford a fortnight ago, when suffering interference at the start, and he's an each-way possible off a reduced mark. |

Down the field at Pontefract last time but in pretty good form previously, finishing third at Catterick (5f, good to soft) two starts ago, and he could have a part to play in a first-time tongue-tie. |
13/2 |
|
9th 4 (7) |
1st Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |

Has tended to be kept to easier tracks but has plenty in his favour otherwise, with him well handicapped and back in form (race didn't pan out his way last time); should go well. |

4th Mar 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Close fifth over C&D two weeks ago, bouncing back from a couple of poor efforts; successful off this mark here in December and has a major chance provided that form is repeated. |
