The veteran of the field but he arrives in top form, finding only the revitalised Mondammej too strong over C&D three weeks ago; not dismissed lightly off an unchanged mark. |

29th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer; three wins at Catterick in 2022 but she hasn't added to them since; recorded an RPR of 79 on her seasonal return when rated 14lb higher; although she's gone backwards since, she had a wind op last month and wasn't seen to best effect at Catterick 19 days ago; not discounted dropping into a 0-60. |

10th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Three C&D wins to her name from six runs; the return here should help, back from wind surgery, and while Birkenhead looks her yard's best chance a revival wouldn't surprise off a career-low mark. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Scored twice over 5f at Wolverhampton and Pontefract in April; his more recent form is not so encouraging, however, and he beat only one in 5f Ripon handicap last time; needs to take a step forward. |
12/1 |

8th 6 (3) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Started his campaign with two wins in April, but he's been up and down since and was beaten 9l behind Our Absent Friends at Catterick last time; needs to bounce back again after that and others are more solid. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Started his campaign with two wins in April and there have been plenty of solid runs since; should remain competitive but minor money perhaps his best hope. |

7th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ran out an easy winner in a small-field soft-ground handicap at Pontefract last spring but the handicapper took umbrage and she's found it tough going since; may have needed January's return to action but she still carries risk despite her much-reduced mark. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Much better than this level in his prime; slow to come to hand back from a 615-day absence but his latest fourth (behind Invincible Crown) provided some evidence that he retains ability, weakening late having raced on the outside of the field; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but could be primed for something bigger. |
4/1 |

4th 4 (4) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Quite useful in his prime; safely held all four starts since returning from long absence this year but looked unlucky not to finish closer to the target over C&D 16 days ago and continues to slide down the weights; worth a second look. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Dual C&D winner (also third last month) who made a successful start for the Jane Chapple-Hyam stable over 6f at Newmarket (good) 13 days ago, well on top at the finish and recording a career-best RPR; had the advantage of the rail but his 7lb rise is offset by Toby Moore's claim and his record here affords him respect. |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time turf winner who was in good form when placed on his last four starts for Ross Burdon, notably when 9lb out of the handicap but third at Ascot (6f, good to firm; Fifty Nifty a head in front) a fortnight ago; bought for 11,000gns on Wednesday and he's effectively off the same mark with Billy Loughnane taking over; two runs in blinkers (2023) were not his best but still looks a player on stable debut. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 15 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Two C&D wins to his name; back to form for Ross Burdon, runner-up in his last three starts, but he's upped in class today and has it to do from 9lb out of the weights. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Notched a third victory of the season at Hamilton (5f) in June; three times a runner-up since but beat just one in 5f handicap at Redcar last time; this C&D winner is the sort to bounce back though. |
14/1 |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Eight wins in all, including three this April-June; she's mostly continued to run with credit (with three seconds) and should be close up. |
7/2 |

5th 5 (1) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-time winner who has finished runner-up in three of her last four starts, including at Catterick (5f) last week; should be in the mix again and she won't mind what the weather does. |
