22nd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won comfortably off 1lb higher on seasonal debut at Pontefract (1m, good) in May but largely disappointing since; safely held when third in first-time visor over C&D one week ago and needs to find extra today. |

9st 12lb |
Began season with emphatic handicap win at Pontefract (1m, good) in May but not much has gone to plan for him since and he was well beaten when returned to Pontefract in August; in calmer waters here but it still takes a leap of faith to support him. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Combination of a first-time visor and drop to 0-50 classified company enough to see her end a losing run a fortnight ago; win last August came off a stone-higher mark and she's shortlisted now back in the groove. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time winner; on the downgrade now but fairly consistent in handicaps in recent months; went without her usual cheekpieces on last two outings; big player in this grade if first-time visor has any positive effect. |

Dual winner over the extended 1m here; losing run up to 13, but 16lb below her last winning mark and looked unlucky not to finish closer when fourth of six here (1m, good) three weeks ago; stays this far and could go well. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |

Runner-up at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) in June and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and his long losing run continues; the first-time visor needs to spark something. |

Acts on any ground; still 4lb below his last winning mark but unplaced in all six starts so far this year, including when seventh of 11 at Pontefract (1m, good) on Friday; more needed. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |

Winless in two years and has regressed sharply this season, proving inconsistent in the visor in 0-55 company of late; doesn't make obvious appeal. |
20/1 |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't won since landing a three-timer in the summer of 2023; has struggled in handicaps this year but stayed on well up in trip when third of 12 in a classified at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) nine days ago; needs to step up back in a handicap. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Only one piece of worthwhile form since completing a turf hat-trick in the summer of 2023 and has never attempted this far before, but she drops into this company for the first time; market support would be interesting. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Good record here, his seven appearances yielding three wins and two second-place finishes; solid handicapping case to be made on his soft-ground C&D win just over a year ago and it would be no surprise if the return to this venue encouraged a revival. |
20/1 |
|
8th 11 (11) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Three-time AW winner and he's 9lb lower than for the most recent success; never featured from off the pace at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) two weeks ago but it would be no surprise to see him bounce back now returning to 1m3f. |
16/1 |

Just fair efforts on turf lately, but is 7lb lower than when winning over C&D in April last year and returns to the AW for the first time since beaten a head off 4lb higher back here in May; interesting. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 6 |

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

His three turf wins have come around the right-hand turn at Beverley; twice a runner-up in May but his form has dipped twice since; has the ability to feature at this level. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Landed back-to-back handicaps over C&D and at Beverley (8.5f) in May; recorded a good third of seven at Redcar (1m) last time so can't be dismissed. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 3 (2) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark when making all at Ripon (1m, good) in May and followed up at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) next time; faded into eighth of 11 at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 11 days ago but may get an easier time of things in front this time. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |

In good form, winning at Ripon (1m, good) and Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) before a decent third off this mark (10lb higher than second win) back at Beverley last time (8.5f, good to firm); should go well. |
6/1 |
