2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Dual course winner (1m2f; last win October 2024); has beaten just a single rival in his last three appearances (1m2f-12.5f) and, while he has eased 11lb over that period (and is claimer ridden), it's tough to form an argument. |
40/1 |

12th 10 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won twice for David O'Meara on Newcastle AW (1m2f) in 2024 but 0-12 on turf; out of sorts last year, and has failed to beat a rival in last two appearances, at Newcastle and Redcar; mark is in freefall but plenty to prove. |
66/1 |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Dual winner over 1m2f at Newcastle in 2024 but winless since; close-up fourth there at a big price in March but has struggled in three starts since, all at Newcastle; returns to turf with a bit to prove. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 32y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Scored at Newcastle (1m4f) in March but largely below form since, last of four in 1m4f handicap at Thirsk ten days ago; this course winner needs to take a step forward in refitted blinkers. |
12/1 |

4th 1 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Exposed 6yo who concedes weight to 3yo rivals but brings positives, being the only C&D scorer in the field and a winner off 2lb higher in most recent attempt in this grade. |
11/2 |

5th 4 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Strike-rate of 7-50; won off this mark in March but well beaten in three of his four subsequent runs and has become hard to predict. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Best known for AW exploits and yet was struggling on Tapeta back in the spring; only 1-22 on turf, lacks a run and he's up against in-form 3yos. |
14/1 |

8th 4 (2) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last five wins have come over C&D, the latest in November; recent efforts no more than respectable, though, and remains 4lb above that last successful mark. |
10/1 |
|
7th 1 (3) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
His last five wins have come at Newcastle, but he hasn't been at his best there in last three starts; went close off this mark in November but he needs to get back near that level; all AW wins have been at 1m2f but he has won over this trip on turf. |

17th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |

On workable mark if judged on pick of form from first half of last year but returned from break with disappointing run in the autumn and has been absent for another 285 days since. |
14/1 |

8th 6 (6) |
5th Nov 2024 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Has won on good to soft; losing turf run goes back more than a year but she ran up to her recent best when second of 14 at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in June; needs to be on song to win off this mark back from break. |

Has a patchy overall profile but out of sorts under both codes in recent times; needs this switch to fences to turn things around. |

14th Jul 2024 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Fit from the Flat, he ran a respectable third at Fakenham (2m, good) last month without suggesting a win is imminent; his two wins have been at Worcester and best to wait until he reappears there. |

29th Jun 2024 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Outstayed in 2m novice hurdle three weeks ago; has form at up to 1m3f on the Flat; still seeking first win for current yard but went close at Bath in April; new trip presents a question mark. |
14/1 |
|
4th 1 |
8th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Had 1-14 strike-rate on the Flat but showed some fairly useful form at up to 1m3f; his tendency to race too freely is a worry on this hurdling debut but he's a half-brother to smart hurdler Golden Ace; interesting to see how he fares. |

13th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Ended a long losing run in first-time blinkers at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) in May and he's continued the good work with placed efforts in both subsequent runs (AW/turf); still looks on a workable mark and has claims if this sets up for his closing style. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run when winning in first-time blinkers at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) last month and ran another good race when second of 12 at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) 15 days ago; up another 2lb but he's a lively contender. |
5/1 |

2nd 6 |
29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Blinkered when ending a lengthy losing sequence in good style at Yarmouth nine days ago, drawing clear last 1f; up 6lb but another bold showing is on the cards with headgear retained and good amateur Henry Callan up. |

10st 1lb |
Both wins in 2023, at 1m1f and about 1m2f, but this C&D seemed to just catch her out in May; two good efforts at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) and Pontefract (1m, good) of late but she may need an easier test than this now and would have preferred some rain. |

27th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |

Record of 0-5 for new stable but shapes as if this belated drop back to 1m is worth exploring; very well handicapped on best form. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
His last four wins have been over C&D, albeit spread over nearly three years; latest came by a nose in July and he was runner-up at Haydock on penultimate outing, before losing his chance at the start at Chester latest; well capable of being on the premises, including on soft. |
