9th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
In good form until a below-par sixth of eight in 1m7f handicap at Ayr 20 days ago; the sort to bounce back. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Without a win since 2023 but had a solid AW campaign before staying on for close third in first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft) on turf return in April; should be fine over today's longer trip; can make her presence felt. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not the best of win records (1-26 but 0-10 on turf); only win was over 1m2f on AW back in 2023; sound third at Pontefract with first-time cheekpieces (retained) on reappearance last month (1m4f, good to soft); stays 1m6f but below her best three previous tries at 2m. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning a 0-55 contest by a neck over C&D three weeks ago; 5lb rise puts him on his previous winning mark and although not the easiest of rides, Tom Queally knows him well (2-8 on him); major player. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Disappointing favourite in first-time blinkers at Bath (11.6f, good) last month but that headgear is dispensed with and cheekpieces return; drops into a 0-55 for the first time and is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last July; respected; stable also runs Letsbeatsepsis. |

4th May 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

Backed up a good run on the AW with a fourth here last week when just behind Knightmare; a tongue-tie returns along with new blinkers; thereabouts. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
A four-time C&D winner; yet to hit top form this season but took a step back in right direction with sixth of ten in 1m2f Ayr handicap 22 days ago; very much one to consider off an easing mark. |
6/1 |

6th 7 (5) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Now 2lb lower than for second of last season's two wins at favourite track Hamilton but well beaten after racing far too freely on both outings this term; wears cheekpieces for first time since 2yo season; risky. |
33/1 |

12th 9 (2) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Hamilton specialist who was tailed off there on his reappearance a fortnight ago (pulled hard); hard to fancy on the back of that but it may have got the freshness out of him and he's on his last winning mark; not a forlorn hope on his first visit here. |

Last three wins have come over hurdles, but his last three efforts in that sphere have been moderate; look elsewhere. |

9th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
C&D scorer who was tried in cheekpieces when coming in last of 12 over C&D 23 days ago; he needs to bounce back. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Headed close home (Castel Gandolfo third) in this race last year; doesn't arrive in anywhere near the same kind of form this time around after finishing tailed off (beaten 50l) over 2m4f here last month; easing mark isn't enough to make a viable threat. |

2nd Jan 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Returned from a long absence last December and he's struggled in nine runs since then; dropped another 4lb but he's a frequent slow starter who makes no appeal back from another break. |

23rd Mar 2024 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
ducked left start, held up in last, smooth headway over 2f out, going easily but waiting for room against near rail over 1f out, soon switched left, pushed along and squeezed through to lead inside final furlong, readily |
6/4 |

1st 2 (2) |
12th Mar 2024 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Five-time course winner, three of them over tonight's trip, latterly off 2lb lower last month; hit traffic in a messy affair at Wolverhampton latest and, while a bigger field would have been ideal (is usually dropped in and can pull), he's shortlisted. |
