27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
On the downgrade these days but his latest fourth of 13 at Musselburgh (1m, good) was a fair effort on Monday; will need more from the same mark but this stiffer test should suit. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

Generally struggled this season and the years look to be catching up now; an easy 1m such as this would have been a bare minimum even in his pomp and Thats My Boy Luke may be his yard's best chance. |

Veteran who is a dual winner (including over C&D) here but his recent form is not so encouraging, just seventh of 13 in 1m2f Newcastle handicap 17 days ago; needs to get back on track. |

9st 1lb |
Had the run of things up front when beating four rivals at Beverley (1m4f, good) and only sixth since then over 2m and 1m6f; this is probably a better trip but he's not the easiest to predict. |

28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Allowed to dictate when winning a five-runner race at Beverley (1m4f) in May; ran respectably over 1m6f the time before but weakened out of it off this 4lb higher mark over 2m on latest; back to 1m6f but others are a little more persuasive. |

10th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 5 |

No problem with 1m4f but is still to totally prove his stamina over this far; was allowed to dictate when beating a small field last time and a 4lb rise puts him on a career-high mark. |

Winless since August 2024 but he comes here on the back of a good second of 12 over C&D in July; this C&D scorer must enter calculations nudged up 1lb. |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Getting on for two years since his last win but this C&D winner has dropped to a tempting mark and he didn't run badly in a stronger race at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) six weeks ago; apprentice takes off a handy 5lb too; high on the list. |

Dual Flat winner but 0-9 over hurdles, although fair run last time when 2l third at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to firm; tongue-tie back on); 4lb lower than when fourth in this race last season; each-way chance. |

Made all and just held on when off the mark at the 20th attempt at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) 11 days ago; 4lb wrong under her penalty, but the drop back in trip may suit on her first visit here; high on list. |

Three of her four wins have come here, including one over this trip; landed a similar event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) in March and not hard to forgive her performance at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; high on list back in distance. |
