8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran (5-81) stablemate of Zebra Star; respectable third over 1m here (good to firm) in July, but could make only minimal inroads over C&D (fifth; 22-1) latest; this is a slightly easier task. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Now 1lb lower than for his Musselburgh win (1m, good) last September but he hasn't posed a serious threat this season and was well held over C&D last Monday; needs to raise his game. |

Veteran with plenty of course form to his name; third of nine over 1m here last week (winner Runninsonofagun runs in the 4.00); one of three runners for the stable. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Mainly campaigned over shorter but does stay this far; 399 days off before this season; never-never fourth of seven at Musselburgh (7f) last night was probably his most positive display since; back on his last winning mark. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Not fired in two runs back from a 399-day absence; has won at this track and he is on a handy mark so not impossible he'll bounce back, for all the trip is on the sharp side. |

0-28 over various distances; no match for the odds-on winner over 1m1f at Carlisle last week but was 7l clear of the third. |

4th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |

27-race maiden; creditable third over 1m4f at Hamilton in June (good) but well beaten since; drop to 1m1f may not be ideal. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |

A longstanding maiden who has performed moderately the last twice, but with a good few places to her name she can't be dismissed. |

9st 10lb |
Two wins this summer, including at this track (1m) off 3lb higher in July; struggled since but Kieran O'Neill back on board today and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue. |

First win over this far/here came off 1lb higher in July; little of note since and was way off it over C&D last week; wears just a tongue-tie. |

28th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
0-20 since winning on his debut in 2021 and needs to prove he can get the job done, but he's gone close at Ripon (1m, good) and Chester (7.5f, good) this month and is also effective on fast ground; could be bang there. |

In good form last month, finishing second at Leicester (demoted to fourth due to interference) and close fifth at Ayr; might not be far away but he's 0-20 since winning on debut in 2021; has to prove he can get the job done. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
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. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |

Resumed winning ways in classified event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March; winless on turf though and only eighth of 13 in 1m Ripon handicap last time; others appeal more. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

All five wins have came on AW; usually ridden with hold-up tactics and will need plenty of luck in running to get her head in front here. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Five-time AW winner but 0-24 on turf; will appreciate this ease in grade but has been out of form since returning from a break in June; needs to turn things around. |
10/1 |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Very rarely goes this far and it's a long time since he won at higher than 0-55 level; always a chance he'll miss the break too and he's some way down the pecking order. |
25/1 |

7th 6 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Well handicapped on pick of this year's AW form but finished well down the field on both starts last month (1m1f/7f) and is now 0-23 on turf. |
