2nd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
He wasn't at his very best last year but took a step back in the right direction when front-running fourth of 21 off this mark in the Lincoln at Doncaster five weeks ago on first run for new yard; no stamina worries but there is a concern about good to firm ground. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
He wasn't at his very best last year for George Boughey, albeit he did finish third in the Listed Doncaster Mile over C&D (good to soft) on this card; now down to a mark 3lb lower than when runner-up in the John Smith's Cup at York (1m2f, good to soft) in July 2024 and his new trainer is a dab hand with topweights in big handicaps; goes well fresh and could have a big say. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has won on firm but best form on soft, as when winning the Lincoln (1m) in 2024; lightly raced with little return since but he was hampered on Newcastle AW last June; entitled to be rusty for new trainer on this first run since; missed a race earlier this month due to good to firm ground. |

Very opposable on the balance of his chase form, especially from 7lb out of the weights. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles but has very shaky record over fences in recent years; pulled up at Cartmel one month ago and now 0-13 in this sphere; 2lb wrong today; too risky. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles; 0-12 over fences and fell at his final attempt; others appeal more from 2lb out of the weights. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
9yo who is winless since June 2024 and is nothing like the force of old; however, his recent 4l fourth of eight at Hamilton (8.3f, good) wasn't devoid of promise and he's another 3lb lower today; not ruled out each-way. |
16/1 |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Useful C&D winner at his best, but this veteran is without a victory since June 2024 and has offered little in a pair of handicaps (around 1m) at Doncaster and Beverley this spring; cheekpieces are retried. |
10/1 |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Useful miler in his prime but his last win was almost two years ago and he's been well held at Newcastle and Doncaster in last two starts; continues to drop down the weights but others are preferred. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Third over C&D in November and that was off a 4lb higher mark; two lesser efforts have followed and his long losing run looks set to continue. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) in June and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and his long losing run continues; the first-time visor needs to spark something. |

9st 5lb |
10yo with a 9-57 record on turf compared to 0-9 (three seconds) on AW; still a force on turf last season (won off 5lb higher) and 2025 reappearance was okay but he took a backward step at Ripon next time. |

9th May 2026 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders when last seen in the winter but returns from 12-week break on a good mark and is versatile regarding ground; gained his only hurdle win over C&D; no surprise if he features. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Five-time Flat winner who has a consistent profile over hurdles; handles soft ground but has a bit to find with He's Bresilian on last month's Ayr form. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Showed fair form at a juvenile hurdler two seasons ago, winning at Hexham in March 2024 (2m, heavy); didn't progress in handicaps after that; has since won twice over 1m5f on the Flat at Hamilton (good/soft) but below his best on last two Flat runs. |
