16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Midfield at Ayr (6f, heavy) last Thursday and same story at York (5f, soft) on Friday; however, he twice went close on consecutive days at the end of September (5f/6f, soft/heavy) and is not ruled out under Billy Loughnane. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Hamilton (5f, good) in June and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (soft) on the latter occasion; three lesser runs followed but he was bang there when third back on soft ground at Hamilton (5f) yesterday and has to be considered after that revival. |

Class 5 success over C&D initiated a solid start to the season; the subsequent other half of his campaign is characterised by a dip in form; no certainty to take advantage of drop back down weights. |

9st 9lb |
8yo who is without a win since October 2023 and has finished soundly beaten in Class 5 handicaps on her last two starts; however, before those she went close in one at Chepstow in May and if rediscovering that form she'll be very tough to beat now dropped into a classified. |

9st 9lb |
Gained his second success over C&D when winning here in January off a mark 5lb higher than today's; held in five starts since but he didn't shape badly when returned to 5f at Lingfield (AW) last time and has to enter calculations returned to this trip. |

Well handicapped on his best form and is effective in the mud but he's still maiden after 14 starts and was disappointing at Lingfield (7f, good) in August; has something to prove again after a break and others are more convincing; tongue-tie back on. |

Notched a pair of 5f Pontefract handicaps in midsummer; not so good since but he was badly hampered last 1f when seventh of 11 over C&D last time; no forlorn hope off a slipping mark. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |

Four-time winner; winless this year but he's been running well for the most part and didn't get the best of runs when fifth of ten at Nottingham (5f) last time; shortlisted. |

10th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Triple Tapeta winner who is still lightly raced on turf and was successful in this sphere (5f, soft) last spring; mixed record in his four runs this year but he was runner-up at Wolverhampton last time and has claims if he can back that up. |

Hard to win with these days but rain won't hurt and he was placed three times off this mark in the spring; bare 5f would be preferable. |

2nd Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Handicapped to win and he's been threatening this spring, most recently finishing third over C&D last month (good ground; blinkered first time); that is solid form for the grade and he should give it another good go. |

3rd 1 (6) |
10th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |

His last win was 12 months ago but that was over C&D and he's finished runner-up at Pontefract and Redcar (both at 5f on soft) in last two starts; on same mark as for both those runs and he's respected with blinkers added. |

21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

One of his four wins for earlier trainers came over C&D; poor form in three turf runs in Ireland this season but he ran off 68 on the first of them and gets in here off just 54; interesting to see if there is any market support with headgear returning. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |

His last win was in April 2024, which is probably the bottom line; three wins and five seconds from 12 races at Windsor also catches the eye but he was a soundly beaten last at Leicester on reappearance three weeks ago. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; consistent in defeat on AW before making a successful return to turf at Nottingham (5f, good) 19 days ago, with reopposing Dc Cogent and Marajito behind in third and fifth; did that quite comfortably but a 6lb rise puts him 3lb above his highest win mark of 66; has also yet to score back-to-back in his 41-race career. |
2/1 |

1st 7 (9) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |

Has reached the frame on AW in his last six starts including when a close second at Newcastle (5f; tongue-tie added) last month; record of 1-21 on turf but conditions should be fine back in this sphere and he had a close call off 1lb higher at Beverley last summer; interesting contender for yard that has won this race in the last two years. |

Out of form on AW when last seen in January/February but ought to cope well if the ground remains soft and is well drawn to seize the favoured nearside rail; worth a second look. |
