8th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has refused to race three times this year, twice at this track including behind several of these rivals on latest appearance (favourite); she was in a good mood when winning over C&D three days before that but there's no guarantee she'll be in the same frame of mind. |

Has refused to race a couple of times this year and has had other moments at the stalls, but she was in a good mood when winning over C&D on Tuesday; holds leading claims under penalty if in the same frame of mind. |

Four-time course winner including in this race last year for another trainer; has refused to race on a couple of occasions, but 2lb below her last winning mark and ran even better than it may have looked when fourth of 11 back here (7f) last month; comes with risks attached, but capable if things fall right. |

10st 13lb |
Veteran who has been ridden by Rebecca Hitchen since joining current yard, posting form figures of 31216; hindered by wide trip in AW contest on reappearance most recently; could go well with that outing under his belt. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

Two wins for Rebecca Hitchen last summer; fine on Tapeta but returns from ten months off looking high enough in the weights and he's entitled to need the run at his age. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
In good form for new yard this summer, recording a comfortable win at Redcar (1m, good) in July and just as good when second at Musselburgh (7f, good) three weeks ago (both under Rebecca Hitchen); another prominent showing is on the cards with the return to 1m in his favour. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Posted duck eggs at York the last twice but this is a drop back in class and he's on last winning mark; however, still has a much better strike-rate on AW than on turf and his losing run is mounting up. |
12/1 |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
He's 8-50 on the AW and only 1-13 on turf; he was bang there over this far and off this mark at Redcar in April but he's another in here on a recovery mission after two lesser efforts. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Eight of his nine wins have been on the AW, including a hat-trick in February last year; pulled too hard when well beaten last time but had run two sound races ar Redcar prior to that (1m2f, good to firm); worth considering from his inside draw. |

10-47 on AW, with all bar one of those wins coming at Newcastle (7f-1m2f); now sits 3lb below his last winning mark, and Tom Kiely-Marshall's 5lb claim is a bonus, but seems to have lost his way; may strip fitter for 7f course comeback run. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Nine course wins to his name, mainly in the early months of the year; 50-1 for his C&D return a month ago, when well behind a few of these, and needs a big step forward. |

Nine of his ten wins have come at this track (7f-1m2f) but last success was 13 months ago and he finished down the field here in his final two runs last year; looks opposable back from a break. |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Hasn't won since landing a three-timer in the summer of 2023; has struggled in handicaps this year but stayed on well up in trip when third of 12 in a classified at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) nine days ago; needs to step up back in a handicap. |

Only had the five starts and looks better on AW than turf on the evidence so far, including a win here (6f) just over a year ago; third in both handicaps over 7f on Tapeta at the start of the year and although not seen in eight months, she has gone well fresh before; one for the shortlist. |

6f course novice winner in September and shaped well back from a break when keeping on for a never-nearer third on 7f Southwell handicap debut a week ago; much less exposed than today's opposition and looks capable of winning off this mark; same trainer/jockey took this race last year. |
